Just how the modish girl manages
to achieve certain things Is the ques-
tlon that engages the attention Of
other girls and inspires the wonder
ment and awe Of the sterner sex How
does she get on a tiny turban over the
mass of fluffy hair which crowned her
head aforetime? Where has said hair
disappeared? How does she take on,
with the foolish little turban, a no
body home expression that suits 1t
exactly but makes one look twice to
be sure Of her identity? Some of these
questions can be answered and some
cannot, because the maid herself hard
ly knows how she manages.
Just now some of the new hair
dressing styles demand that the fore
head shall be uncovered and that sim
plicity in the coiffure be made a
feature of it's attraction. Some daring
souls have even gone to the extreme
of combing the hair straight back
from the forehead and twisting the
ends into a plain, high coil at the tor

an abundance of hair to frame it may

Gently adopted. The board expressed
satisfaction with the progress made.
The superintendent at the beginning
of his task submitted an outline of
the needs and the work for the year
was laid out, the first consideration
being the greatest good to the great
est number of patients, the second the
greatest saving to the state. The
plans were drawn accordingly and SO
much has been undertaken as the
funds available would warran The
work has been pushed with the utmost
dispatch, in order that it might be
finished this year or early next year.
Seven wards Of the white male de-
partment will be converted into mod
ern quarters, equipped with all mod
ern convenences and safeguards in
cluding safety fire escapes. The
kitchen is being modernized, with
view not only to producing good,
wholesome food, but also to making
considerable savings One Of the ne
cessities which had developed was
that of congregate dining room for
the white female patients. This is
now in process of erection. 1t will
not only make possible the better
handling Of the food, but also will
eliminate the ward dining rooms,
which now consume space that is
needed for patients.

WILLARD ALMOST
 QUIT RING AFTER
 HE KILLED YOUNG

Tomorrow will be the third ann1ver- sary of Jess Willard's first bout with John sBu11'' Young, the boxer who later died after a battle with the fu- ture champion at Vernon. The first of the three Wi1lard-Y oung contests was staged in Fort Wayne, IradssS5 It was the first time Big Jess had ever performed in7a ring outside of Okla ho1na, where he had made shiss debut in the game.
 Jess took part in eight bouts in Oklahoma in 1911. After the last one he was arrested and fined $150. That soured Jess on the game as it was played in Oklahoma, and he hitx the trail for Chicago, acting OH the sad- vice of Charley Cutler, the wrestler. h the Windy City he practicedstf1e manly art'' at Bill O'ConneI1'sg gym m in South State street. While he was working there he was matched, with John Young, a husky fellow who had the reputation of being an iron man. Jess knocked him out in the sixth round, but the Fort Wayne sports who saw the contest had no idea thats1F1e victor was destined to become a future champion. In those days J ess was big and had an awful punch, but that let him out. He was clumsy and slow, and knew nothing of the finer points of the game.
 .sBulI' Young wasn't satisfied with
 
 anxious to meet Jess again. Willard was all to the Barkis, and the fight was pulled off privately in South Chi cago. This time Young took the count in the fifth round.
 Willard went East after that scrap and fBulf Young eventually made his way to Los Angeles. Young got his nickname of @BuIl'' because of his brawny. powerful build He Twas truly a bu1I-ltke man, with a bullet head and thick neck set on a stalwart chest He took part in a few bouts, and also worked in the training camps, where he was known sas ia naan who could assirnilate almost any amount of punishment.
 Willard went to the Pacific coast in 1913s and after losing to Gunb oat Smith and drawing with Charlie Miller at San Francisco, he proceeded oELos Angeles. where he was again matched with Young. This third meeting be- Vernon arena. It was a slow, unin- teresting bout, and the spectators jeered the clumsy gladiators. Jess took 1t easy for ten rounds, easily avoiding Young's rushes. In the eleventh chapter Jess hit Young on the, Jaw. It looked like 9 light tap, but "BuIP' went down, dead to the world. He was carried away to a hos pita1, where an operation was per skull was not fractured. Young never recovered consciousness after the operation. His death was a great blow to Jess, and for a time he seriously considered quitting the game. At the trial Jess was acquitted, as it could not be shown that his blow was re- sponsfb1e for Young's death.

NAP LAJ0iE HAS
 GREAT ROAST FOR fD0DE BIRMINGHAM

''Dode' Birmingham, former mana ger of the Cleveland Americans, who resides in Albany during the winter, Is given fine facing this month, in the Baseball Magazine by Nap La 5oie second basen1an for the Athlet- les, who for rsmany years played with Cleveland.
 LaJoie was soldA this season by Man ager I5ir1r1tn ngt1aTn, to Comic Mack af-. ter the latter had disposed Of Eddie Collins to the White Sox.
 Tn the BasebaII Magazine, n a5ofe' declares that it is no secret that things were not pleasant between him self and Birmingham. Says the great ball player: t
 T have nosobjection in working for a competent manager, but when a bush league player like Birmingham tries to tell a. club of old veterans how to play ball, it is ridiculous
 ''E1e tried to tell me how to bat, me, who was hitting for over 300, when he was in primary school. He did the same for Joe Jackson, when Joe was hitting over AGO. Birmingham never hit over 250 in his life, so don't sec where he gets his license to pose as teacher ?
 Owner sonera Sor Cleveland in the same article sticks up for Birming- ham, stating that naturally a veteran ball player would not like being dic- &ated to bysa young manager.

CROWD
 BRAVES RAIN
 TO SEE RACES

New York. May 22-Racfng is here to stay. When a crowd estimated by racing officials to be between $500 and 4,o0O braved the storm of yesterday te.vigtt Belmont Park it tells plainer than words the grip that the sport has taken on the citizens of this State:
 Rain. and the fact that the card was shot to pieces with scratches failed to dampen the ardor of the racing fanc. The patrons of the course cheered the contesting horses as lust lily as they did in the days of 1907, when there were open betting rings.
 The Westbury Handicap for three year-o1ds- and upward, distance six furlongs on the main course, was the feature of the programme, but it was not the best, race of the day. Gainer, Ponette B1eu and Saratoga were the only starters out of eleven horses named on the programme. It was Gamers first race of the season, and because the paddock sharps said he was not in good condition and not ripe for a hard struggle Pomette B1eu was made a top-heavy favoriate at 1 to 4. Gainer was quoted at to 1 and Caratoga at 12 to l. Pomette B1eu and Gainer had the struggle between them all the way.
 Pomette BIeu made all of the run ming and though hard pressed at the finish by Gainer, R. T. Wilson's lilly won the race by open daylight.
 Phosphor proved that he is a sprint CT of the first class by conceding big Jumps of weight to Spring Board. Pixy and Marion H. and beating them out in a canter. Phosphor was backed from to 1 down to 13 to 10.-FIe made all of the running and won with a ttkink in his necl,'' as horsemen say.
