Gotham Expert Disagrees With
Jennings as to Men Suffering
From long Trip Abroad,
BY Frank G. Nicnke.

N due respect to the es ,.a'
baseball judgment of Hughey
Jennings, of the Tigers, We can not
refrain from taking slight excep-
ton 10 some OF his recent utterances
Hughey deplores the fact that some
members OF the Giants, White Sox
and a scattering Of players from
other teams went on a world tour
playing ball a odd moments. Hugh
ey fears that the continuous ball
playing" OF the tourists win make
them 80 stale and generally put them
on the fritz" as far as the regular
1914 season is concerned
Hughey would have us Imagine that
those tourists really are working
that they are eNerting themselves to
the utmost. and that there's a large
chance OF at least half of them dying
from oVerwork before they get back
TO their native shores. Hughey feels
that those who survive the trip will
come home with so many busted
bones, with such shattered constitu
lions and so generally worn out that

polish" is the popular term for
this glossy surfaced straw and
the waxed ribbons of similar fin
lsh have been taken up quite as
enthusiastically. They are rath-
er more effective used with reg
ular milan or hemp hats, gaining
by the contrast of dull and shiny
surfaces. Cherries are espec-
tally pretty on trimming girlish
hats, and they are disposed in the
|
modish opposite clusters, in bead
fashion about the crown, or hang
ing over the side. 1t all depends
on the style of the hat and the
wearer.
Contrasting with the small
models that have high flarins
brims turned up in various ways
against their crowns, are a legion
of flat plateau shapes mounted
on bcndeaux which fit the head
closely.
The first class is the best choice
for the average matron, while
the plateau shapes suit girlish
wearers especially well, but there
is no hard and fast rule about
this. For the woman who be-
longs between the two extremes

Rumored That Home Com
pany Will Take Over Long
Distance Service of Old
Corporation Next August.
MANAGER HUTTON
ENTERS A DENIAL
Will Continue in Service Un-
til He Reaches Age of Com
pulsory Retirement, When
He Will Be PensiOned.

Report that the Bell Telephone
company intends completely to aban-
don its local long distance service be-
fore the close of the year is again
current, and this time there appears
to be substantial basis for the report,
although officers of both local tele-
phone companies say no information
substantiating it has been received.
This report has It the local Bell SER
vice will be abandoned the latter part
of next August, when Manager Noah
Hutton reaches the age Of 70 and is
placed on the retired list, or shortly
thereafter. Mr.. Hutton says, however,
that he has heard of no such arrange
ment
Mr.. Hutton, who has been in the
service of the Bell Telephone COM
pany for thirty-fve years as local
manager, will be retired on his sew
entieth birthday with a pension Of
full pay, under the pensioning plan
recently esta blished to reward old en-
ployes who have faithfully served the
corporation.
Shortly after the pension plan was
established Mr.. Hutton was notified
that inasmuch as he had served the
company the required twenty years
and was over 60 years old, he could
voluntarily retire on full pay pension
II he SO desired.
This did not appeal to the veteran
telephone man, however, and he re-
quested that he be permitted to re-
main 'in the harness" until he reach
ed the age of compulsory retirement,
70 years. He is as active and enthusi-
astic in the performance of his duties
today a. he was twenty XeaxA Aso, and
he saw no reason Why fe should be-
come an industrial pensioner until he
crossed the age limit tape. The COM
pany officials promptly complied with
his request.
What gives emphasis to the report
that with the retirement Of Mr.. Hut
ton comes the abandonment of the
local Bell service is the fact that re-
Gently it has partially dismantled it's
lines and has a satisfactory arrange
ment with the local Home Telephone
company for the handling of all long
distance business. The Bell company
has no local subscribers, and the bulk
of its long distance business Is done
through the Home company te!e-
phones.
The Bell company has also been fol-
lowing the policy for some time of
either abandoning it's service in towns
where there is competition and where
working agreeemnts have been made,
or purchasing the competing COM
panies.
