(BY FRANK G. MENKE.)


NEW YORK, Sept. 26-Fault is be-
ing found with the greatest scoring
system in tennis. Many of the net
enthusiasts declare that it is a big
mistake to make the championship
sets best three-infive. They advocate
best two-in-three.
Tennis should be game where will
skill counts most" said one authority.
However, under the present scheme
of things, skill is subsidized to en-
durance. The last National Champion
ships illustrate my point.
"R. Norris Williams and William
Johnston battled in the finals. The
majority of those who saw that match
were a unit in declaring that John
ston was the more skillful player; that
Johnston, in practically every division
of technique, was Williams master. Yet
Williams won.
"And it was endurance that really
turned the trick for Williams.
Johnston is rather frail of body;
Williams is not husky by any means,
yet he has a big advantage over John
ston in physique. He had greater en-
durance to call upon than did his
smaller foe, he was able to play five
sets and finish strong, while Johnston,
almost crumpled in the fourth set and
played through the fifth almost alone
OIL courage and will power.
1T seems to me, as it does to others,
that atwo-in-three arrangement would
do better than the present one. Play
ers who are brilliant performers but
who lack powerful frames, always are
handicapped in those long matches.
They never play their real game. If
they throw themselves into the first
three sets they find they are about
worn out when the third is finished. If
they decide to conserve their energy,
saving the real power for the final sets,
it means that they do not play their
real game in those sets where they are
laying back

FORTY MILLIONS IN
ARMY FOR RUSSIANS

PETROGRAD, Sept 26.-That this
war will be followed by vaster one
in which Russia will fight with an
army of 100000 men is the preur,..
ton of General Skugarowski, Rus
sian infantry commander now on the
eastern front. in an article published
by the Russkojo Slowo.
at is impossible to predict now the
outcome of the recent war, writes
General Skugarowski, but neyvrthe-
less we can readily picture in our
minds what the next war will be like.
1t will follow directly on the heels
of the present conflict. How soon this
new war will begin depends on how
the present war will end and who will
be the victors. If Germany is not
thoroughly beaten another war will be
likely within ten years. In the mean
time every country will be busy pre-
pairing for it.
THAT coming war will surpass the
present in frightfuness; in fact, the
present conflict will be like child's
play compared with what can be ex-
pected in the next war.
The question is, what kind of an
army will Russia be able TO put into
the next war? According to the CEN
sus of 1914, seventeen out Of every
hundred inhabitants in Russia are men
between the ages of twenty and forty
five. The experience of the present
war has shown that boys OF seversaan
and nineteen years of age fit for ser
vice, also older men, between forty-six
and fifty years of age. Therefore, Rus
STA can readily pu+ twenty-five men
out of every 100 population in the
field.
But figuring on those who are i'll
or incapacitated in some way, we can
conseryatively figure twenty men out
og every 100. In ten years the popu-
lation of Russia viii De 100000, 800,
Germany's about 100000. In Rus
STA. therefore, an army Of 100000
men will be available and in Germany
barely 2O,O0O,OoO.

comfortably filled this afternoon with
ladies who will inspect the very pretty
shapes offered. Mrs. Walker recently
came to Americas from Fitzgerald, but
by courteous treatment of those who
have availed themselves of her services
is rapidly making friends here. Her
showing today is ample, embracing ev-
cry shape and style, and all who called
there were most graciously received.
