Californian Forces Quaker City Star Into Fine Sets
"Not Out of Tennis"
Says Mclaughlin.
"Will Play Again"

Maurice Evans Mclaughlin, the
California Comet, has not forsaken
the game that made him famous.
Yesterday, at Forest Hills. the for
mer national lawn tennis champion,
speaking Of his future, said:
Il am quoted every year as saying
that | have played my last set of
tournament tennis, while as a mat
ter of fact have made no such
statement. | shall always take a
deep interest in the game, and while
my business duties necessarily oc-
cupy most of my time and attention,
| think ! will find time enough TO
play bit, even though it is not for
the championship.
ANY man who has been an ath-
lete and then enters a business
career, with its confinement indoors,
knows il is impossible TO keep his
physical condition perfect. That
has been my trouble, but If l get
the opportunity / will return TO the
East and tournament play. Even if
! knew / could not hope to win the
title back would play, just for the
love of the sport"

Johnston was Just on the fne edge

he never played the same vicious, light

To get the best results from phlox
they should be planted new each fall
or spring and given plenty of water
while in bloom.
Hardy phlox can be transplanted at
any time, preferably in the spring or
early fall by dividing the old clumps
Plant in April about fifteen to eighteen
inches apart and pinch the tops back
when about four inches high. The re-
suit will be that they will give maxi
mum of florets and very large head
of bloom. Give an occasional dressing
of manure or manure water.
When a very large mass of plants is
desired. pinch back about one-third of
the stems about May | and about three
weeks later another third should be
pinched back This lengthens the
season of blooming and adds to
their beauty.

HYDRANGEAS

In the spring hydrangeas should
have some branches cut out at the
bottom to give them more compact
and sturdy look. They should occupy
sunny position in the garden and be
protected from the cold winds of au-
tumn. When the buds begin to swell
in the spring cut the branches at the
bottom and the plant will quickly
throw up shoots that will produce large
heads of bloom
The plants should be watered occa-
sionally with liquid manure.
