The lad who couldn't tell

who can tell you how to run
the government.

old girl who used to read
books on what A Young

a H., ear'old daughter who
puts her mother wise.
The Willowy Girl cops out
the covers of the magazines.
But the girl with the wide
curves and the dimples in
her anatomy attracts all the
attention on the street.
What has become of the
lold.fashioned man who used
to wear a new paper collar
every Sunday9
Before you get her she can
say things with her eyes that
make you feel funny all over.
And after you get her she
can say things with her
mouth that make you feel
funny all over.
Since the vacuum cleaner
displaced the broom a man
can't find a blame thing but
his wife's hairpins to clean
his pipe with.
In the Game Of Love you
can always take a Heart if
you will lead a diamond.
One half the world may
not know Low the other half
lives. But it isn't the fe-
male half.
If you ina gine that women

BASEBALL BRIEFS.

Johnson, left fielder of the Tacoma
 (Wash.) club, will get a trial with Brooklyn in the spring.
 The veteran Charley O'Leary will cover shortstop next season for the St. Paul club of. the American associa- tion.
 '"I never buy a share of anything. buy a controlling interest and that goes for the Giants, Cubs or an Okla home all we'll" Thus speaks Harry Sinclair. If peace is declared I will demand a war indemnity. I relish fight, you know, and I am willing to spend money to enjoy myself"
 Wendell, the former Pittsfield cat cher now with the Giants, is boosted as follows by the New. York Tribune: Ut will take a mighty good ball player to keep Wendell on the bench. He can catch the ball. can throw, run and is a fair batter. Better than all ma chanical ability, he is naturally smart"
 1T for one do not want back any of those who left the Brooklyn club and joined the Federal forces" says President Ebbets of Brooklyn. "I cannot forget the treatment the club received from Dalton, Tinker, Fisher and Knetzer. None of those players will ever wear a Brooklyn uniform if I can help it."
 The contract jumpers in the Fed eral league are: Chase and Roach of Buffalo, Marsans and Davenport of St. Louis, Konetchy and Comstock of Pittsburg, Magee of Brooklyn, George Johnson of Kansas City and Rankin Johnson, of Baltimore. Of these play CTS the Cincinnati club attempted to stop Marsans and George Johnson from playing with the Feds, and Comiskey tried to prevent Chase from playing with Buffalo. The Feds won all three cases in court.
 George Wiltse says he never saw such an improvement in a ball player as in Lee Magee. "He is 50 per cent better new than he was in the national league" says George. "I rate him the best man in the Federals. He is learn ing all the time. He is a better out fielder than second baseman, but make no mistake, in another year he'll be @ star at the keystone sack. He is great man for a team. He plays to win the games all the time, rather than for records. That's why I rate him beyond Kauff"
 The first offers of peace from any quarter developed at the last worlds series game between the Red Sox and Quakers Harry r. Sinclair and certain Federal league magnates met Ban Johnson Col Jacob Ruppert and others of Johnson's clique in a Phila- deIphia hotel Peace conditions were 1 discussed. Nothing came of it.

DARTMOUTH REFUTES
 DIR. WILLIAMS CLAIMS
Investigation Shows That No Attempt Was Made to Get Minnesota
 Player.

1 Hanover, N. H., Dec. 2O.-Early in : the season a story came from the middle west to the effect that Dart mouth was trying to wean from the University of Minnesota a football player named Quist. The story was accredited to Dr. M. l.. Williams, the Minnesota coach, and it looked as though a rather raw case of prosely- ting had come to light.
 Dartmouth alumni were so indig- ,nant when they read the story that they began at once a thoroush inves- tigation of the matter. A statement of the facts discovered appears in the current issue of the Dartmouth alum nj magazine and shows clearly that the story was the result of a misunder- standing and that Dartmouth men were in no way to blame The state . ment reads in part as follows:
 :. 'Quist had for some years past been more or less interested in Dart mouth college. He had talked with various alumni of the institution and had learned from them that an im- pecunious boy who can satisfy scol- arship conditions may secure aid from the college to the extent of $60 tow arc, the S140 tuition charge. Beyond this small opportunity, which is open to all alike, he ha1 received no special encouragement
 Shortly after the opening of the football season this fall, however, Quist called upon pr. Williams and in quired as to his prospects for place on the Minnesota team. In course of the conversation he suggested to Dr. Williams that he had an excellent op- portunity to go to Dartmouth. Dr. Williams, assuming the complete &C., curacy of Quist's statements and read ing into them perhaps more than the actual words warranted later made some unguarded remarks to newspa- per reporters, who seized upon them and gave them wide publicity.
 Enquiry on behalf of the Dart mouth alumni council was conducted in Minnesota by Henry D. Thrall of the class of 1906. In a letter to MT. Thran under date of October 20, 1915, Dr. Williams makes substantial with drawaI of whatever assertions may have been credited 70 him by the newspapers. He says in conclusion I am sorry that reflection has been cast upon Dartm outh and will do what I can to help straighten it out.
 "The alumni council conducted it's investigation solely for the purpose of defending the good name of Dart mo os1th and with no desire to em barrass any individuals involved in the case. The name of the college and it's alum nj having been completely cleared and documents having been filed with the secretary of the council, the affair, in so far as Dartmouth is concerned, is considered satisfactorily closed.''

New York, Dec. 20.-Ad Wolgast, the former world lightweight cham pion announced that he will throw aside his gloves Jan 1 and retire from the ring. Two years ago Wolgast announced his retirement from the roped arena but the promoters kept after him until he consented to meet 8 number of near champions. In talking of his retirement from the ring the Cadillac (Mich) wildcat said recently: "I have over $20O,O0O salted quite enough to keep the wolf away from the door for many day. When I announced my retirement from the
