CHANCE AND CALLAHAN ARE HAPPY
SOXS AND YANKS in GREAT SHAPE
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON

Baseball In the big leagues
thus far has been q test of the
condition of teams rather than a
test of the teams themselves. The
results offer warning for the
future (which. by the way, will
be forgotten before next winter
against the system of training
ball clubs. Possibly q few of the
teams that are suffering most
heavily now through bad training
systems will change next spring,
but some others will fail to heed
the warning and go on the same
way to ruin.
Chances New York team this
year and last offers a striking ex-
ample of what training will do.
Last spring he trained in Ber-
muda, jumping from tropical
climate three days by sea into
New York early April weather.
The result was a wrecked ball
club that never recovered. This
spring he trained in Texas,
lodged past the bad weather, got
his team home in fair shape, and
1t looks fifty points better now
than 1t looked month ago.
Cincinnati's team, when | saw
it at Alexandria, La. early in
March, was In better condition
than 1t is today. Instead of stay
ing there and coming up ready to
start the season, 1t jumped north
into cold, rain and snow, played
on cold. soggy fields and went
back. Chicagos Cubs, leaving
Tampa, were in fit condition TO
meet anyone. Now they are
wrecked as to condition. The
Chicago White Sox, luckiest of
all the clubs this spring, found
the best weather they ever have
had in California, came home by
easier stages, and had only two
days of cold weather before the
season started. Callahan's pres
ent standing shows the value
of having pitchers ready to work
at top speed before the other
clubs get started hitting.
Pittsburg has the most uni
formly well trained teams of
either league. They go to Hot
Springs. work hard. and this
spring they had a little better
luck with weather than usual.

z VERY little girl has a right to play
Ia in the water and to learn to swim
and be as much at home in 1t as her
brother Is. The adventurous spirit Of
boyhood takes him out with his fell
lows and If water is within reach he
is apt 20 learn to swim. Girls make
splendid swimmers, and the mere
knowledge that they possess this &C
complishment keeps them from get
ting panicky when joining In the
water sports of their companions.
The most noted swimmer In this
country is Miss Annette Kellerman.
Quite likely there are numbers Of
men who swim as we'll and have as
much endurance. But no of them
can do better, and no one Of them can
look half as well as this sister to the
mermaids. The exercise develops all
the muscles Of the body in the most

swimming and the tonic of cool water
arc both healthful.

Brilliantine or mohair, in a good
quality, is about the most appropriate
material for these bathing suits.

Industrial Casualties.

From a chart which was exhibited
by a leading insurance company of
America at an International exposi-
ton of safety and sanitation, 1t would
follow that there are $4,000 fatal in.
dustrial accidents a year in the United
States, and about 800, 900 injuries.
This inspires a writer on the new
industrialism to say: The mere pos
sibility Of being able to state in sta
tistics the approximate number of our
industrial casualties is a step in ad-
vance, for as late as 1909 1t was i'm
possible to estimate with any accu-
racy at all what was the toll we paid
in crushed limbs and snuffed out lives.
Now, at least, we know how vast is
the problem to be solved, how much
needless suffering we infict and how
much we lose in dollars and cents
because we have hitherto failed to
realize the necessity of guarding men
as well as machines"

Canning the Fruit Crop.
Short Cuts. Time of Cooking and the
Utensils to Use
By Mis-. Louise Stanley A.aa.u, Professor of Home Economics. University of Missouri
Utensils to Use

The flavor of the canned product,
either fruit or vegetable, should be as
nearly as possible like that of the
fresh fruit. We cannot have the same
flavor, since heating always changes
the flavor to a certain extent and the
heating is necessary to kill the organ
isms and any engines present.
Underripe fruit or vegetables, or
those that have been kept too long
after gathering, cannot be expected to
taste well after canning. The best
rule is not to can any material which
O would not be able to serve on
your own table Immediately. All green
vegetables, such as peas, corn, etc.,
| should be taken early, before they
lose the sweet taste-that is, before
the sugar is changed to starch. II
| should be remembered that if vege-
tables are kept too long after being
| gathered the change from sugar tc
starch may be brought about by
means of the engines present.
Utensils Needed.
Cans or Jars. Tin cans are cheaper
but, since most of them can be uset
only one year; glass jars are more sat

is to be sold, tin cans will be more
satisfactory, because they can b.

BACK TO MERVALE
BY FRANK FILsoN.

l suppose It is human nature to be
interested in the misfortunes OF our
feIlow-beings, and that excuses the
interest that everybody in Merivale
took in Jenny Walsh. 1t was not ami
mated by any spirit of unkindness-
but we all wanted to see how Jenny
would take 1t.
Frank Stocklelgh and his bride were
coming back to Merivale.
Jenny had been pretty once. That
was ten years before. She wasn't
much to look at now, though some
thought that she had charm. But
charm doesn't last much beyond thir-
ty-five. At least, I'll qualify that by
relating what our mayor, Doc. VIII.
Jams, said. After thirty-1ve, he said,
a woman must have matronly charm,
because the girlish charm has grown
stale. That bore out his reputation
as the village wiseacre. And Jenny
was still slim and girlish, but she was
growing into a middle-aged woman.
Yet it didn't seem so long since
Frank had been madly in love with
her. She was a light-hearted girl In
those days. She had known Frank
since they were children-but she re
jected him. Nobody exactly knew
why, some thought she was in love
with ne'er-do-well Jim Furber. Any
way, Frank Stockleigh went West, ant

you were" stammered Doc. Will
ians. and that was as far as he could
get. He couldn't exactly tell him he
thought he was in prison; and yet the
surprise OF Jim's temperance, and
his appearance In Franks company,
made the mayor forget himself.

at him with the blinking gaze of a

as much as he should have been. Il

And he broke of In a sort Of chok-

through his. And then, for once Mayor
Williams did the right thing.

dinner" he said. so come along all
of you-straight up to the house. And
you, of course, Miss Jenny" he con-
tinued.
But it was not until the dinner was
over that the mystery was explained
and 1t was Frank ~Stockleigh who
cleared 1t up.

something in his tone which checked
