Baby's Rosettes.
A novel, inexpensive way to have plenty
of pretty pins for baby's sleeves, bonnet
strings, and so on, is to purchase card
Of "gold-plated" safety pins Of the tiniest
size, and to sew to the top of each small
ribbon-rose with bit of knotted green rib
bon for leaves. The rose almost conceals
the top Of the pin and is very dainty and
effective when in use. These sell in the shops
at one dollar for six, and at home six may
be made for ten cents For each rose four
inches Of half-inch pink satin ribbon and an
inch and a half Of leaf-green baby-rbbon
are required. Fold the pink ribbon length
wise in the center and roll carefully into
the shape of rose Fasten with few
stitches, then sew to the center of the green
ribbon, near each end Of which knot has
been tied. Sew all securely to the pin.
Many people still think that mother
knows instinctively what she should do for
her child. Somehow we feel that when
woman becomes a mother she at the same
time becomes endowed with the necessary
knowledge for the care of her child. This
idea is fast giving way to the new one that
not so much instinct as study and prepare
ton fits woman for motherhood

The Pankhursts and the War.

1t is interesting to note that all the Pank-
bursts do not take the same attitude towards
the war. Mrs. Pankhurst and Christabel are
in favor Of the war and in public speeches
and in. their paper "The Suffragette' are
urging men to enroll as soldiers and women
in any capacity in which they can render
war services. Sylvia is doing nothing to
stimulate recruiting or to urge the people to
fight. Adela who is at present in Australia
is assisting Vida Goldstein in her efforts
for peace.

WOMEN DOCTORS AND THE
PUBLIC HEALTH,

Seventy years ago Hobart College at Gene
va, New York admitted Elizabeth Black
well to it's school Of medicine. It was an
innovation; no other school of medicine had
as yet opened it's door to women. Other
schools did not follow Hobart s example
very readily. Hobart herself was not pleased
with her innovation and refused to admit
Elizabeth Blackwell s sister. Indeed dis
elimination against women in the field of
medicine has existed until very recently. 1t
is only forty years since the American Medi
cal Association has ceased to annually de-
clare that "this body will stultify itself
by the admission Of women
Even today women have not the same OPP
portunity in the profession as men. Women
are still excluded from holding internships
and other staff positions in hospitals. "Good
Housekeeping in a recent number gives a
list Of the various hospitals which exclude
women and the rare cases where women
have been appointed. We find that although
Jewish women have achieved eminent sue
cess as physicians they are excluded from the
resident staff of Mt. Sinai the largest Jew
ish hospital.

discrimination against women who choose the
medical profession will soon disappear. 1t
is becoming increasingly evident that the
effect of women on the practice Of medicine
is entirely good
They it is who will introduce the social
element into the practice Of medicine; who
will spread the gospel of prevention, of
hygiene, Of sanitation AS school physicians,
as prison doctors in women s wards and as
guardians Of municipal public health women
can render distinct service. That this
social service of women doctors is not
visionary but actual, we need merely point
out the fact that the extension effort made
in recent years for the prevention Of SEX
ness and the education Of the public was or
ganized under the direction of a woman,

belief in equal suffrage but declared that his
experience with economic problems has con-

"Not only the people Of New York but

ty good ball player. He has speed
and he can hit, which makes up for a
lot of weakness in the field. In this
league a hitter is worth considerable
to ball club and Pick looks to me
like a good hitter"
This is Clark Griffith's opinion of
Charlie Pick, the little infelder now
being tried out here for 1915 berth.
And Pick rs living up to this opinion,
too, in his daily stunts in the field
and with the willow.
Pick was with Toronto in the In
ternational League in 1914. He is
twenty-six years old and has played
a lot of baseball pretty well across
the country. For Joe Kelley he
worked at third and second. When
he Joined the Griffmen in Chicago,
he claimed to be a third baseman,
but was sent to the outfield owing to
the absence of the regular perform
ers. He hit like fiend while he re-
mained in the game, but Mitchell's
sterling hitting put Pick on the
bench again.

played at second base. He was bit crude
when he began. but the daily practice

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, March 81.
Pat Moran, manager of the Phillies, is
going to go to the National Commission
IN a fight to obtain Ramiro Sieglie. the
cuban second baseman, who yesterday
signed with the Griffmen.
Sieglie today received telegram
from Moran in which the National
League leader claims prior rights to
Sieglies service through his having
paid transportation of the player from
Havana to st. Petersburg, Fla In his
wire to the Cuban Moran says that this
gives him first claim to the lad, and
that will take the case to the Ma
tional Commission.
As soon as he received Morgan's tele-
gram, Sieglie took up the matter with
Manager Griffith. The Old Fox told
him not to worry about the affair, that
the Washington club had signed him
when he was free agent, and that the
club would protect it's rights. This
seemed to satisfy the Cuban. who then
went to church.
THE Philadelphia club has no claim
on Sieglie,' said Manager Griffith after
reading Moran's telegram. "lt is true

NAVY INDOOR TEAMS
MAKE FINE SHOWING
Finish Season Without a De-
feat Except in Basketball,
Meeting All Corners.

ANNAPOLIS. March 21.--Every one
connected with the Naval Academy is
much pleased at the showing made by
the different Academy teams in winter
sports this season. The basketball, gym
nastic, wrestling, and swimming teams
have completed their seasons, and all
but the basketballers have finished
without meeting a defeat, The basket
ballers also made a splendid record,
losing only to Yale and Cornell, both
games by small scores. Though their
season is not completed, the fenCers
have won from every member of the
Intercollegiate Fencing Association. and
have not lost a match to a college or
university team.
The showing OF the swimming team
was particularly pleasing, as. for the
first time, the Academy was represent
ed in this sport by a team of the high
est standard. The victories scored were
over such teams as the University of
Pittsburgh, University of Pennsylvania,
Columbia, Johns Hopkins, and Prince
ton. The improvement in this sport is
shown by the fact that every Academy
record was broken.
