On Handicap Basis.

Polo tournaments are conducted on q
handicap basis. Every registered polo
player is given a certain handicap by Il
national polo association. The handi-
caps range from zero to 10 points, and.
contrary to the usual custom. the ham
dicap is against a player, and not in his
favor. A good player, for instance, has
a handicap of points which means
that he must deduct . points or give
his opponents the benefit of > points.
If, for instance, the handicaps of the
four members of one team totaled 20
points, and those of the members of the
opposing team totaled Is points, the
latter team would have points to its
favor at the time the game started

Penalties are provided for violation
of certain rules of the game, dangerous

the strict rules of the game is that no

l wish to say a few things as a plea

of a government employe for eleven
years. | can show a book. with the
figures. showing every cent spent in
that time. My husband worked for
$40 a month at first, and after six
months for $40. After about eighteen
months he was raised to $50 and there
he stayed for eight long years In that
time the rugs. mattings. doormats
curtains, bedding. and many other
things have all given out or grown
very thin. and l have grown thin with
them. trying to mend them up and keep
them from going. for there was no
money to buy more.

myself. and if you don't know how
YOU feel on a thing of that kind Just
try 1t once. / have tramped around
from store to store buying the very
cheapest things | could possibly find

Only Seventeen Cents Left.
We have known what it was for both

to phone for a doctor, buy a LITTLE
medicine with that or trust to get
well. We are cash people, sober and

If the good, charitable people with
whom my husband worked had not
handed him good many things they
didn't need in the way of clothing
etc. we really should have suffered. We
really could not buy what we wanted
to eat on all we had as salary. much
less living entirely on that much so

CHIEF OF STAFF SCENTS NEED

Continental Army Plan of Garrison Is

Need 1000, 900 Men.

Washington-Univ military SER
vice in some form in the United
States, possibly the requirement that
all men between IS and 81 be given
at least six months training as sub
stitute for the volunteer system, was
discussed Monday before the house
military committee by Major General
Scott, chief of staff of the army
General Scott told the committee
the United States would need an army
of nearly 100000 men in the event of
war. 1t developed during the hearing
that there are more than 100000 men
in the country between the ages Of is
and 81 and that 100000 more reached
the age of Is annually.
Short of a universal military require
ment, General Scott thought the ad
ministration's continental army plan
offered the most workable solution OF
the nations military problem. If the
plan failed, he said, there was nc
escape from compulsory service.
With military service imposed OF
men between IS and 81, as patriotic
duty, with nominal pay, he thought i
would cost the nation no more for al
adequate force than to maintain 1T
present establishment.
