WEDDING GLOVE FOR BRIDE
Third Finger Is Left Unstitched So That the Ring Can 5e Slipped
 nn

A happy era has dawned for the bride at the fateful moment when the ring is about to be placed on her hn- ger.
 Instead of the usual struggle to re- move her left hand glove she will now be able to uncover the third fin ger without effort and without losing her composure.
 This delightful result is to be ob- tained by an ingenious wedding glove" device. The inside seam on the third finger of the left glove is un- stitched, so that all that the bride need do is to slip her finger through the slit to receive the ring. The fin ger can just as easily be slipped back into the glove after the ceremony.
 The device will be greatly appre- ciated not only by the bride, but also by the nervous bridegroom.
 The story of the origin of the we'd ding glove has come to lighk Some time ago girl who bad lost her right arm in the hunting field asked for Q single wedding glove.
 She remarked on the awkwardness of having to remove her glove with the help of her teeth, and it was then sseen that matters would be greatly fe 1ilitated for the bride if she only had to uncover the ring finger.
 The experiment was so successful that it aroused the interest of other prospective brides, who saw in 1t boon which would save them from the usual difficulties of removing whole glove in the moment when the ring is about to be put Exchange.

DODGERS CLOSE
 DEAL FOR TINKER.
Charles N. Ebbets and Garry Herr mann Reach Asreement-Reds May Get YinaIine and Moran.

Cincinnati, O.. Dec. 21.-The contro- yersy over the services of Joe Tinker between the Brooklyn and Cincinnati clubs was settled at a conference be- tween Charles Fl. Bbbets, president of the former, and August Hermann, president, and Harry Stephens, secre- tary. of the local club, here Saturday. By the terms of the agreement Mr Ebbets is to pay the Cincinnati club S15.0O0 for Tinker and Is to hand over
 with Brooklyn.
 A supplementary agreement also
 gives Cincinnati the privilege of pur- chasing Earl Yingling, pitcher, and Herbie Moran, outfielder of Brooklyn, while Brooklyn can buy Dick Egan. second baseman of the local team. This latter deal is optional with both clubs. They have until Jan. to exercise their options. Cincinnati can purchase Yingling for $S,500 and Moran for $4. .000, while Brooklyn can obtain Egan by paying $5,000.,
 It Is almost certain that these deals will be closed. It was said that final arrangements for the transfer of the
 players would have been made today but for the fact that both MesSrs- Eb- bets and Hermann desired to confer
 with their managers before closing the
 deal MT. Ebbets said he would con- fer with Wilbert Robinson Brooklyn s
 manager, as soon as he returned home. ana MT. 9t1eTTIldIlI1 WILL LdIk LQ6 matter
 over with Charley Her2og, the Reds
 new leader, during the national base
 ball commission meeting here in Jan-
 uary.
 If both clubs exercise their options,
 the Brooklyn club obtains Tinker and Egan for $30000, $20,O00 going to Gin cinnati and $1O,000 to Tinker for sign
 ing. Cincinnati obtains Yingling and
 Moran for s12.500. Considering the money -subtractions, the total trade therefore would be that Cincinnati will give Tinker and Egan to Brooklyn for Yingling and Moran and $7,50O, Tin ker getting S10.o0o from Brooklyn out of the deal.
 The conference lasted almost three hours and at its conclusion both Messrs. Ebbets and Herman, as well as MT. Stephens, stated that they were entirely satisfied with the arrange ments. Mir. Stephens represents that portion of the board of directors of the Cincinnati club which last week disapproved of efe Tinker deal as con- summated after the National league meeting in New York

7oU and When, Should Woman Escort Take Her Arm:

Do Atlanta men take woman's arm
correctly on the street; should a man
take a woman's arm on the street any
way, or should woman cling to the
masculine right; should there be any
taking or clinging at all, and if so, does
Atlanta do it right?
Somebody asked this puzzling query
recently, but nobody seems to be quite
certain of the original propounder. At
any rate, it was shot up into the air
and landed all over. Young Atlanta,
especially young male Atlanta. is in
a turmoil as result.
There absolutely is no unaninity Of
opinion on the subject. and there seem
to be as many opinions as there are
arms to take. 1t is quite as bewilder-

o'clock train out to the course. they
asked the station master by telephone for
a special. He said he could fill the order,
but insisted that ne would hold the reg
ular train seven minutes for them. as
special would cost at least SIS.
Never mind the cost, we desire a spe-

Drawn. The punctilious man and the

the idea Of edging their respective
divjnities along the right side of the
sidewalk with their own gloved fingers
as the steering gear.
1t is big question, as those who~have
wrestled with it are today willing to
admit.
One luckless theorizer who is no
nearer an answer now than when he
first heard the tantalizing interroga-
ton, said:
ut is not like it was In the good old
days when etiquette, street and room,
was ruled by rigid code and could be

Actress Gives Her Views.
Then there are those who have de-
cided views, and these are women. The
brisk young woman seems to have less
trouble in answering the query than any
other type. She favors no arm taking
at all, and there are those of the mas
culine sex who insist cynically that
She has the right idea, at least from
her standpoint
Miss Ray Cox, who is appearing at
the Grand this week, has had a chance
to witness arm taking and arm cling
ing the world round. She says there is
no rule nowadays
81 don't think Atlanta men deserve
the accusation l heard made against
them recently. They are no more
awkward in taking a woman's arm
than any man in taking woman's arm
anywhere.
at is my opinion that taking wom-
ans arm on the street is a masculine
function which men do indiffereutly
and in a sort Of stumbling, shifty man
ner at the best. Few do 1t prettily,
but Atlanta men are as clever as the
men of other cities"
Miss Cox said that she didn't overly
relish the idea Of a man lacking TO her
arm every time she tried to take q
step, especially in a narrow skirt. She
asserted that a woman in such pre-
dicament had to keep her mind on her
skirt.
W. c. Patterson, Of the Grand the
alter, with whom punctiliousness. is as
natural as appetite, rather likes the
idea of escorting q girl by the arm. He
admits, however, that the thing is just
a matter Of taste and says he doesn't
believe that it is any more important
than the shape of collar.
Miss Cox and Mr. Patterson tried
the matter out thoroughly today before
a camera, so that little part of At
lanta that hadn't been specializing on
the question could get an idea Of what
it was about, and Atlantans who
strictly favor a single method could
see themselves as others see them
Nobody seems to think Atlanta is
less polite in this matter than other
cities. but there are those who argue,
rather reasonably, that Atlanta men
could dispense with the abominable and
objectionable habit of smoking on the
streets in the company Of women and
gain tone.
