BOSTON RED SOX
 ENJOY TOWN TOPICS"

The Boston Red Sox practically took possession of the Century thea ter, New, York, last Tuesday night and indulged in many antics during the progress of the baseball scene in Med Wayburns Town Topics" Pres ident Lannin and Manager Carrigan and thirty-six of their baseball squad occupied orchestra seats, as did Man ager William Donovan and some thir- ty members of the Tanks. Iris Speaker, the center fielder of the Sox occupied an aisle seat in uniform and when Will Rogers, the cowboy of Town Topics,' threw a lasso and roped him, Speaker very demurely was led across the footlights and had some fun with the rope himself, be- cause he used to punch cattle with Rogers on a ranch near Hubbard City, Texas. Just preceding the base ball scene at the Polo Grounds, all the Red Sox and many of the Yankees left their orchestra chairs and went upon the stage, where they sat in the grand stand and watched the game between the male and female Giants, with Trixie FriganZa as catcher or the female Giants and Blossom Seeley, (Mrs. Rube Marquard), as captain of that club, with Bert Leslie as catch CT of the male Giants and with Elan agan and Edwards made up respect ively as Honus Wagner and Ty Cobb, and with Pete Page as umpire. wear ing his familiar liver pad in place of a chest protector. The boxes Of the miniature grandstand of the Polo Grounds were decorated with eighteen pair of red socks, worn by the Bos- ton champions, and many baseball jokes were indulged in. The thirty
 six pretty girls who made up the squad of the female Giants had
 grand time with the New England
 ball players, and altogether 1t was unique event. It is the only time in
 the history of baseball that contend CTS for a worlds series have been
 given a real outing on the eve of worlds series contest, but as Mana
 ger Carrigan expressed it: "1 am go- ing to let the boys stay out until mid night tonight and have good time v
 MT. Ned Wayburn was called upon for a speech, and said that he had been an ardent baseball fan all his life and that he hoped the better team would win the worlds cham pionship. Most of New YOrk's base ball writers joined in the merriment
 by occupying the press box on the stage.

George Ade's sparkling comedy, Just Out Of College" picturized into five acts of rollicking humor will be seen at Fox's tomorrow and Thurs day. Fox patrons who are looking for a good laugh will do we'll to see this latest George Ade production.

In whatever corner worn-out and artiquated aphorisms are being tucked away in this progressive age you will find one that was once familiar to my ears. It is Little children should be seen and not heard" 1t served on many an occasion to curb my enthus- iasm or exuberance at moment when these qualities threatened to Eroject my personality too strongly. I can't say that the idea always ap- pealed to me then as much as it does now, sometimes.
 For the old attitude toward chill dren in the home has been abandoned. Children are both seen and heard. They no longer form a pleasing back ground, they dominate the domestic canvas.
 One of my eader friends gives case in point-an extreme case, per haps, but one which may recall ex- periences which other reader-friends have suffered, in a lesser degree.
 Tho Conditions Are Ideal.
 "I have just returned from a visit to a girl used to know" she writes. "She has married very we'll as the world phrases it, and with a devoted husband, four children and an ample income, one would think she ought to have in ideal home.
 Personally, I don't think she has. She brides herself upon the care she takes of her children and the time she devotes to them. The children are the center of her existence and. of course, the center of the home. They >pervade its uttermost corner.

 While they are at dinner the ruby IS stolen in exactly the manner he has described. He, naturally, is suspect ca, as are three other guests, an Aus tral1an millionaire, an English cap- taln' and the playwrights valet. The 1 story throughout Is of expressing in terest in its ingenious mystery, its de- l tall ana US excellent suspense. The action Is convincing and the incidents are so arranged to make a continuity Of narrative that is at once absorbing , and interesting. The happiest sort of fun is evoked which is of a quality wholly American in point of humor. 1 The scenic investiture is of an elabor- ate nature and from the studio of l Homer Emens
