of the league season. Manager Hill
reasoned that, this system would en-
able each club to break in and train
two young players who could be used
to advantage next season. The sys-
tenn also would save each club much
expense, for the club would eliminate
a part of the heavy expense and trou
Bile which comes every spring and
when new players are being tried out.
In the spring the men are not in the
proper physical condition, and the
managers are forced to carry them
for too long time before being able
to ascertain the players ability.
But by being allowed to use two
youngsters during the last month Of
the league season, the managers can
select good men with only brief
trial, and possibly can train them in.

lowing season.
President Justice would not taks
the responsibility for the change, but
took up the matter with Secretary
Farrell OF the national commission.
Farrell advised that the national
board has no jurisdiction over this
matter and does not object. Then
Justice allowed the change, and no
titled the league clubs to that effect

In his letter, President Justice
says that the Cedar Rapids club can
use two young players, but that they

Wait till some one pays him a com
pliment," replied the editor, dipping his
pen into his hearts blood. and deco
rate his life with it in such a way
that he would rather be dead than re-
ceive another"
He decided not to print the letter
from son, aged three. 1t was too full
of pathos Il will ask Son of Three
Years" he wrote, ito be patient. His
parents are sadly d-fashioned in their
belief that a son has no voice in fam
lily matters until he is 81, and pays
board. In these days of equal rights
the child is allowed a voice in family
affairs before he is two"
He sighed YEARLY as he advised chill
dren with baby brothers and sisters to
capitalize their parents admiration Of
them by shutting them up in cages and
charging other children two pins to see
them.
Then he wrote an editorial that APP
pealed to every child's heart, in which
he urged that when a child is caught
in mischief its grandmother be made
the court of justice. The thought of
such a childrens court was soothing.
His eyes closed, his pen dropped, and
the great editor fell asleep.

T TOW TO make a 1913 Easter bonnet:
Take some straw and a ribbon
and one feather. Mix the straw
and ribbon about as usual. Then take
the feather and place it at the most I'M
expected and unusual angle on the said
mixture of straw and ribbon; sew firm
ly. Result: One perfectly novel bon
net. Serve Easter morning, garnished
with new clothes and conscious smile.
The accompanying pictures show the
new designs in straw and ribbon. Cen
orally the concoction is rather small,
fitting well over the head, greatly to the
hairdressers chagrin, for, of course,
your own hair will do-no bought hair
is necessary
But the feather-there must be a
feather-must be very long. of the pine
tree" variety, or uncurled ostrich that
looks like an escaped piece of feather
buster, only more 80, and is very ex-
pensive. This must be put on in such a
way as to make it an original creation
and a very dashing proposition. The
Easter bonnet starts out demurely and
ends in a skyrocket effect
The shapes vary. You can have a
"tricorne," piratical looking hat, like the
one of Milan straw, In dark. blue, with
vivid Balkan green velvet trimmings
and feather of the same shade.
A quiet looking shape of black straw
turns up suddenly in the back to show
a shower effect of white paradise POM
pom.
Some of the newest colors are "tete
de negre," or tan colored, orange and
various shades of yellow Mandarin
colored crepe is used largely. for trim
mings and crowns. Vivid embroidery
is used to brighten up dark straws and
velvet or silk landings are much in
evidence, also in the Balkan shades.
That means deep greens, reds, yelIows
and vivid blues.
