YANKEES GATHERING
NEW TEAM OF STARS

Slowly but surely with ruthless Ell
ficiency the Yankees are engineering a
corner on pretty nearly all the des'r-
able young talent in the minor league.
Though only eight captures have
been reported thus far. it is becoming
more and more apparent that The New
York, sleuth hounds have been plying
their gum shoe trade with siicn,
yisor that later on will show amazing
results.
1t has long been the boast OF tRe
Yankee officials that the New York
club maintains the most extensive and
the most efficient coaching staff eX-
tant. and rival outfits are now willing
to admit that the claim Is based on
solid fact. Jack McAllistcr the
Cleveland chief of scouts, protests that
ii is absolutely impossible for any
other club to buy a player that New
York wants, and that New York seems
to want every young busher who has
shown even a trace of real class this
season.

tender age, cannot indulge In the

twenty can essay, The clever design
ers seem to realize another thing;
that no one yearns with more des-
perate yearning to be ''grown-up"
than fiapper; SO the Junior raiment
while discarding any features to
which might be applied the happer
stigma, "babyish'', strikes a happy
mean between the smart matureness
that the fapper longs for and the
simple little girlness that mothers of
fappers insist upon. Never were
clothes for the thirteens,- fourteens
and ffteens so charming as they are
now, and never had mothers of grow
ing daughters SO easy time Of it.
Rcady-Made Styles Far The Best.
Pictured today are several fapper,

thirteen and sixteen years old. The
simplicity and good style of these lit

the materials are excellent and in no
case was the price excessive. The
mother Of a girl of fapper age-or

called-cannot do better, in providing
her young daughters wardrobe, than
to shop in the ready-made depart

good lines that clever designers and
skilled workers give these ready made
models, and in the fapper's case good
lines and style are more important
than even material itself-though
when 1t comes to material, one is
pleased to note what admirable
fabrics go into ready-made costumes
for young people. In the fapper's
case, however, stout material is not
the first Importance. One grows
rapidly in the teens and seldom may
a frock be carried over into a second
season. Letting down the' hem may
lengthen a skirt sufficiently, but it is
likely that waistline, sleeve and trim
mings will all seem to come in the
wrong places and awkwardness and
ungainliness will be the certain result.
The finish of the frocks and coats,
however, is Of great importance.
Clothes are apt to receive rough usage
from wearers in their teens. The tiny
girls garments are picked UP and
taken care of for her; and the maid
approaching womanhood has learned
to take a. dainty pride in keeping her
belongings neat; but the poor betwixt

TAKING CARE OF COLDS

- OW happy one is in summertime
minus the everlasting aggrava-
ton Of colds! That is, unless one
is afflicted with hay fever, but for
tunately for most OF us hay fever at
tacks only the minority. OF course,
one occasionally suffers bad cold
in summer. and such q cold when
1t does come is likely to be severe:
but a cold in summertime is no more
dreaded by the average individual than
sprained ankle. It may happen of
course-anything may happen! But
the eventuality is unlikely. In win-
ter, however, a cold is veritable
sword Of Damocles, forever hanging
over ones head and ready to smite
at any moment. The person who
escapes without single cold all winter
long is prone to boast Of his good
luck; though, verify, most Of us hest
tate to boast about not having taken
cold, for fear the Damocles sword
will descend and smite forthwith
that much superstition Turks in al
most every one of us. Look sharp,
when you hear any individual express
qualification that his health has been
perfect for a length Of time, and you
will see his fingers stray surreptitiously
to his chair rung or the edge of
the table. and however casual he
thinks the gesture seems, you may be
morally certain his real intent is to
KNOCK on wood"
The best thing to do about colds is
Of course, to be careful beforehand
and not take them; but in this busy
world where SO much Of our comfort
depends upon other people it is not
always possible to avoid drafts. un-

and sneezing cold victims-to say
nothing Of dust and germ-laden win
ter winds. Keeping the system up to
tone Is the best way to prevent taking
cold. Once allow yourself to become
overtired, worried and nervous, with
consequent depression of vitality and
a bad cold is likely to attack you. Get
plenty of sleep, and every morning
dash cold water over throat and chest,
following with brisk rubbing. This
will harden you and make you resist
colds better. Breathe deeply of fresh
air, however cold. when you are out Of
doors; but wear veil when the
March winds whirl dust particles
about. If you have the least indica-
ton of a coming cold in soreness or
raw feeling of the throat, get some
formamint tablets and let one dissolve
In the mouth every half hour. If you
really get a bad cold remember that
good tonic will build you up and
help your system to throw it off.

The nursemaid is expected to do her
hair simply and with utmost neatness
-as a trained nurse does. She may
not wear gold brooches, bracelets nor
ear-rings-but then, neither may the
housemaid or the parlormaid. The
French maid of milady may trip about
in high heeled slippers. but the nurse
maid Is expected to wear low heeled
pumps or oxford ties and these are
usually equipped with rubber heels.
They are exchanged for buttoned
street boots. also low heeled when the
nurse takes her small charge out or
doors.
The conventional and correct out
of-door uniform for the nurse Is q
cape coat long enough to cover the
| indoor dress of white or blue linen
and a nurses dress and coat too, must
be well over the ankle. The dignif1ed
calling of the keeper Of the nursery
precludes a coquettish short skirt.
There is a reason for everything and
| the nursemaid's uniform is designed to
suggest dignity and a gentle womanll-
ness. The long skirt, stately coat and
neat little bonnet all help to carry out
this desirable effect.
| The coat is of dark blue cloth for
winter wear. In summer time the
nursemaid wears q similar coat made
of dark gray or dark blue mohalr.
The coat itself is sleeveless, the cape
protecting the arms but leaving them

for the little fodder who must have
constant attention. The small bonnet
is of dark blue silk with pleated veil

ties of hemmed white lawn. The nurse

- HERE Is no such thing any
Fl more, as "the' awkward age.
That erstwhile gawky and angu-
lar period, a trial to mothers
whose lovely little daughters changed
from dimpled chubbiness to a long,
hmbed. sharp angled hopelessness
that simply could not be dressed up
to look enchanting. has been con-
quered by the designers Of juvenile
raiment. The happer has become in
shop parlance Junior, and for the
junior. special frocks, coats and hats
are provided; neither child rocks
which in their babyish prettiness ac-
centuate the growing-up awkwardness
OF dapper age; nor misses frocks
which in their adapted grown-upness
make a. flapper absurd and over
dressed.
The junior costume is happy COM
promise between childhood and young
ladyhood-just as the fapper is a
compromise between these estates.
Not only. are the lines OF the junior
costumes carefully considered SO that
utmost grace may be given to the
long-limbed awkwardness of the tlir-
teens. fourteens and flfteens, but col
ors are considered with equal care.
Complexion troubles sometimes occur
at this age and the fapper, debarred
