This Athletic Club Has It's
Gymnasium in Parish House

An athletic club which has a parish
house for a gymnasium and club rooms
is the All Saints Athletic club which is
composed OF two score young lads who
attend All Saints Episcopal church or
live near the church. ..
The All Saints Athletic club was organ
lied and Is conducted under the director
ship Of Morley Young. who was formerly
one OF Central High schools star athletes.
The club meets every Monday evening
in the parish house OF All Saints church
and Young has a program lined out for
his young charges each week.
The club holds dances and other social
entertainments and occasionally stages
an athletic carnival to raise funds for
expenses incurred In this way apparatus
for the parish house-gym was purchased,
as there are no dues attached to mem

NEW YORK. Jan. zs.--It looks like a
rough season for "afnateursl" There Is
every reason TO believe that the pace set
by the United States Golf association

tablishing a definite boundary line. In

which is so restricted that the slightest
misstep finds the amateur launched

teur Athletic union Is foregone con-
clusion.
On the whole. then. It appears as II in
the very near future amateurs in all
branches OF athletic endeavor will have
a straight and narrow path blazed for
them. That the action OF the golfers IL
to good purpose cannot be gainsaid by
any who stand for untarnished amateur
sport For too long now the definition,
or rather the various definitions, OF an
amateur have been too elastic. with the
result that too frequently the faint OF
professionalism has been injected as q
punctuation mark in amateur sport.
Some associations have been inclined 70
frown upon how another association has
interpreted the rule. and what has been
ground for disqualification in one asso-
citation has been tolerated in another.
The adoption OF the rule passed by the
golfers. phrased of course to cover the
various athletic activities. would be the
nearest approach TO a standard rule that
has yet obtained. and would be long
stride in the right direction.
It's adoption may work some hardships

WATCH EX-FEDS CLOSELY
Fans Are Anxious to Learn How
Federal Stars Will Fare in
Organized Majors.
KEEN RIVALRY WILL EXIST

NEW YORK. Jan. 29.-The work OF the
ex-Federal leaguers In the National and
American leagues will be watched very
closely by the fans during the coming
season. In fact. the advent into Or
ganized ball ranks OF the former outlaw
stars is expected to furnish the hlghllght
OF an unusual base ball year.
There Is certain to be keen rivalry be-
tween the old players In the big leagues
and the newcomers.s The star Organized
ball twirlers will be on their metal when
ever Bonnie Kauff, Lee Magee. Flack
Rousch, zwilling. Cooper or Campbell
steps to the plate. And KRuff. Mhgee
and company will be equally anxious to
hit and show that, they are as capable
OF solving the delivery OF the National
or American league pitching stars as
they were OF the defunct Federal league
hurlers.
This situation will create a tension that
should result in the playing OF the high
eEt grade base ball seen in many years
That is why the National pastime has
an excellent chance OF regainlng Its old
hold on the populace in one season.

GILMORE COMPLETELY OUT
Fed Prexie Who Created Such a Stir
Will Retire to Stationery
Business.
KICKED HIMSELF OUT OF JOB

NEW YORK, Jan. 2e.-Having cut the
deepest mark ever inflicted on the side
OF Organized Base Ball. James Gilmore
is preparing TO wind up the affairs OF the
Federal league and retire from the game
for good. This will come as surprise
TO many OF those who expected him 20
become president OF the Chicago Cubs
or to occupy an executive position with
the National league.
With Gilmore will go Harry Sinclair,
the oil millionaire, who dropped close to
half million and IL quite satisfied to
let It go at that Gilmore declares that
Sinclair. having tired OF trying to buy
into the Giants. is quite willing to quit.
He does not believe that Sinclair has any
serious intention OF buying into the st.
Louis arilndls. the oil man wanting a
New York club or nothing.
But the retirement of Gilmore is Of
more interest. At his own suggestion he
has helped to bring about peace, thereby
forcing himself out of $4,000 Job.
There were whispers OF a movement
on foot 20 make Gilmore president Of the
National league. but that Is impossible
In view OF the contract held by Governor
Tener. Gilmore has wonderfuf faculty
OF being able to dig up fresh money and
would be a power in any organization.
He may rise from oblivion later, but that
is where he Is going now.

Nowhere Does He Come So Near Be.

The value of the purebred sire for
every class of farm livestock is com
ing to be universally recognized, but
nowhere does he come so near being
all-impOrtant as In the dairy. In one
full generation the herd header can
destroy what has been years In devel-

of the right kind. If of the right type
and breeding he can add to the ordi-

highly profitable herd higher profit

Haphazard methods of breeding will
not produce a bull of highest quality.
He must have quality ancestry on both
sides and the only ancestry known to
be reliable is one whose history is reg
istered and recorded. Blood will tell,
and nowhere does 1t speak more en-
phatically than in the dairy herd. The

RINSE UTENSILS AFTER USE
Prevents Water In MIX From Evapor-
sting and Solid Matter Sticking
20 the Vessel.

The first important rule to observe
In cleaning dairy utensils Is to rinse
them Immediately after use. This pre-
vents the water in the milk from
cooperating and the solid matter stick
ing to the utensIl. II II is impossible
to wash the utensils at once rinse
them In cold or lukewarm water. so
that the most of the milk will be re-
moved before II has chance to stick.
Hot water should not be used until
the milky substances have been re-
moved with cold or lukewarm water,
for the hot water will coagulate the
casein IN the milk so that II will
stick to the tin and require greater
amount of washing before 1t can be
removed.
After rinsing In cold or lukewarm
water wash the utensils In hot water.
Cold or lukewarm water Is practically
worthless for cleaning purposes. Use
some standard brand Of alkali wash
ing powder with the hot water. The
alkali powders are more desirable for
the work. since they quickly and effi-
GENTLY remove the milk from the tin.
Powders or soaps that have grease
as part of their composition do not
give as satisfactory results as the
alkali powders.

ton descending from purebred COW
and scrub bull and bred again to
scrub stock will continue to decline
and the offspring of the first cross is
likely not worth its keep.
If dairymen could see in the con-
crete sense the millions of dollars
which the consistent use of nothing
but purebred sires would bring to
the dairy industry within ten years
time, the mission of the apostles Of
better breeding would be once and for
all fulfilled. A purebred sire Is I'M
doubtedly the most profitable and at
the same time economical investment
which the dairy farmer can make.

Good Manners Help.

A merchant who returned from Eng

been voluble ever since on the manners
of the children he happened to meet
abroad. Apparently American parents
and schools do not lay on good man
ners the emphasis that they receive
abroad. Yet good manners, like the
gold at the foundation Of all money.
are current the world over. Emerson
noted this: "Give boy dress and ac-
compllshments and you give him the
mastery Of palaces and fortunes wher-
ever he goes. He has not the trouble
to earn or own them: they solicit
him to enter and possess" "All your

to envoy, or from envoy to ambassador.
