BETTY GETS A CHANCE.
Red Cross Seals Helped Her TO Get
Well

Red Cross Seals Helped Her to Get
Well.
She was real pretty and so full Of
fun that the dimples were always
showing in her round, red cheeks. Her
eyes were big and brown, and her nut
colored hair curled naturally in little
ringlets over her forehead and ears.
She was just eighteen when we first
met her and so neat and attractive
that one would think she belonged to
the we'll to do class Of working people,
but when we followed her to her home
one day we confronted startling facts.
The red in her cheeks was the flush
Of unnatural inward fever, the high
spirits were q pitiful antidote to pitt
less conditions. and the big brown eyes
saw only squalor when they were not
fixed upon a typewriting machine or
closed persistently to any view but an
Imaginary bright one.
The room we entered was a general
living soace. used also as an eating,
cooking and sleeping apartment. There
was but one bed. and Betty had to
sleep in it with her mother. who was
too weak to sit up. An open cuspidor
sat where it would be conveniently
near the bed. which placed it by the
stove. where their food was cooked.
The mother. who was suffering in an
advanced stage of tuberculosis, did not
like cold air, and her querulous de-
mands caused Betty to keep the door
and windows closed.
rWell," said cheerful Betty, with a
laugh, that isn't so bad as not having
any windows or doors to close, Is it?
Things might be worse"
Infinitely worse said the Wise
One. "You might even take notion
to stuff the windows and doors with
rags to cut out what oxygen comes In
through the cracks"
Red Cross Christmas Seals. with
their CHEEKY message Of hope, gave
Betty chance to get well after ner
mother died. Is It worth while to save
the Bettys?

No Intention of Breaking
Off Chess Match with
Russian.
LATTER WAS OFF FORM
IN LAST TOURNEY
Capablanca May Clash with the
Winner of Tilt Later in
the Season.

Foreign exchanges are responsible for
the statement that owing TO the Russian
champions Indifferent form in the recent
international tournament at ST. Peters
burg. Or. Lasker had asked Ruoinstein TO
postpone their match and give the Cuban
champion. Capablanca. a chance TO play
in mis- stead.
II can be said on good authority that
Lasker never intended to break of the
match with Rubinstein under any circum.
stances
Except for the fact that he had been
anaIyzing too much without engaging In
practice games with other strong playen
Rubinstein would have given better ae-
count OF himself in the tournament es-
pecially so II ne had spent a week or %
at some health resort. as he generally
does previous to an important chess En-
gagement.
Chess lovers should not forget that
Lasker and Rubinstein have signed
articles for the championship match. to
be played in the fall. that Lasker has
already disposed Of sixteen games, to
be played at various European clubs. and
that neither Lasker nor Rubinstein Is
likely to break a regularly made con-
tract.
OF course, IL Rubinstein or Lasker
should be unable TO play for important
reasons, then Capablanca may enter the
ring and be ready to play with either
under similar conditions.
Furthermore there is no doubt that
efforts will be made TO bring abou; a
match between Capablanca and the win
ner OF the Lasker Rubnstein bout, mas
much as Capablanca has proven to be a
logical candidate for championship
honors.
Appended is another selection OF games,
played in the recent st. Petersburg In

ested In racing through the pony race,
which really inaugurated the sport at
Piping Rock. will be represented either in
the Piping Rock Serial Handicaps or the
Grab Bag Handicap. The latter is a nov
ell race for year-olds. and such is the
