Still another local sandlot player Is
booked for a major league trial, ac-
cording to information garnered from
an admirer of the Marines team of the
Government League, which returned
Yesterday from Philadelphia, where 1t
played a service team stationed in that

in his power to strengthen the Yankees,
but that there is no improvement of
Donovan's team In sight a present. He
realizes that with SO much interest in
the Yankees, the team should be made
as strong possible, but he adds that
the club owners who have star players
are unwilling to sell or give them up.
The Yankees have been drawing splen-
didly in New York and on the road this
season, and il the team can stay in the
race it will be sure to make a lot of
money for its owners. besides being of
material help to the other clubs in a

is not an easy task to get the other
club owners to hand over desira BILE
playing material.
Jim Thorpe's days In professional. or
high grade base ball. at least, will soon
be over. Thorpe was sent to the Jer-
sey City club of the International
League this spring, and he has failed
to make good there. His failing is that
he cannot hit a curve ball. and the
pitchers in that league use little else.
Thorpe signed a contract calling for
$1,000 with the Giants. and the Jer-
sey City club agreed to pay half of this
for use of the player. Now that he
has failed, it is very likely that he will
be sent back to the Giants, and they
cannot make room for him because Of
the twenty-one player limit, so Thorpe
probably will have to drop into the low
minors or quit the game.

WILSON PUTS BAN ON "PULL"
GIFTS-SENDS EN- BACK

Washington, Dec. 15.-Many valu-
able wedding presents which have
arrived at White House for Pres.
Wilson and Mrs. Edith Boiling Gait,
who are to be married next Saturday
have been returned, it was said to-
day, because they were sent by per-
sons unknown to either president or
fancee.
Return of such gifts has been the
custom in this and previous admin
istrations. Pres. Wilson, however, is
making exception to this rule by
keeping such gifts from unknown
persons as are of small monetary
value. Valuable gifts, however, and
gifts from persons who have been
seeking favor with the president and
are using this means to attempt to
get into his good graces are being
returned promptly, in many cases
without even being unwrapped.

KEEPING THE NECK SHAPELY
Allowing Accumulation of Too Much
Flesh Is Fatal to a Woman's
Good Looks.

Too much flesh on the neck is per
haps one of the greatest obstacles tc
beauty which any woman can possess
1t Is almost as bad in appearance as
scrawny throat, and is much more
difficult to remedy 1t is far simpler
thing to put flesh on woman's
throat than to take it off, for if the
tissues are fed with a good grease,
such as cocoa butter, the neck will
soon begin to take on flesh.
On the other hand, only exercise of
the most vigorous sort will reduce the
size of the throat. For tendency to
double chin and to tighten the mus.
cles which have become loosened in
flabby neck try this simple but effica.
cious exercise. Throw the head back
as far as it will 60, drawing the mus.
cles taut. Now turn the head slowly
as far to the right as it will go, then
as far to the left Repeat to the
number of ten times, increasing as
you become accustomed to the strain
Bathing the neck frequently with a
piece of ice is excellent for keeping
the flesh firm and for removing fab
biness.

BEST AVOID EXTREMES
FASHION HAS NOT YET SETTLED
STYLE OF SKIRT.
Exaggerated Width May Remain in
Style, But It Is Not Certain
Long Sleeves to Be Accepted
Matter of Coats.

If one is altering a street or house
skirt It would be wiser not to adOp
the exaggerated width, for it has only
blazed the way for a less narrow
skirt than we have worn for several
seasons, and now the best thing is
TO cut new skirts in between the two
widths. The shortness of it depends
upon our own inclinations, but there
is no semblance of a return to an in.
step length, and, better still, there is
no sign that they will touch the floor.
We are too Unfortunately proud of our
footwear these days to accept a style
OF skirt that would hide it.
1t is also safe to accept the gathers
at the waist line of the skirt, but not
at the waist line of the bodice. More
and more are we convinced that the
lifted waist will play the important
part in the spring fashions. Already
there Is an air Of oddness about the
blouse that says over the belt, and
there IS no effort made to shorten the
waist and there is every indication of
a well-defined waist line.
Long sleeves must be accepted, and
IN the evening there is rival fashion
creeping up on the one that eliminates
the sleeve altogether; it calls for a
short sleeve of the material, is a bit |
