Thinks Bright CoIors Have
No Place in the Sickroom.

Draperies and bright colors have no
place in the sickroom, believes Miss
Mary M. Baird, instructor in home
economics, division OF extension, Kan
Sas State Agricultural college.
The sickroom should contain only
the necessary furniture, thinks Miss
Baird. This consists Of a bed, one
chair, and a table. A rocking chair is
out Of place.
The bed should be placed so that the
light viii not shine directly on the pa
tient. Iron or brass beds should be
used for the sake Of cleanliness. Woven
wire springs REINFORCED at intervals
are just as strong and comfortable and
are more sanitary than coiled springs.
The mattress should be the best
which can be afforded, says Miss Baird,
and should be covered with an envelope
cover. The bed should be raised by
adjusting posts, or by means of a hol-
lowed block in order that the home
nurse may not be obliged to stoop more
than is necessary in caring for the pa
tient.

Evers, who Is one of the few mem
beers of the famous Chicago machine Of
IA few years ago still in major league
baseball, refuses to grow old.
'sThe only time / feel DID," said
Johnny, sis when read or hear that
another of the old Cubs has drifted
back and passed out, or that some man

s'Then begin to figure that must
be getting along myself, and that my
time must be nearly up. But seem to
feel younger each year, and to like
baseball better. If I am slowing up
don't feel it, although guess it takes
IN little longer each spring to get my
arm in condition and to get going al
top speed.
GAS far as this season is concerned,
know feel as young as I did that
day nearly fifteen years ago when
came to the Cubs. If they would only
keep the papers from mentioning that

EVERS FORGETS ALL SAVE
+ GAME IN THICK OF BATTLE
Veteran Gets Reputation as Umpire
! Batter Because He Puts Whole
Heart and Soul Into Struggle.

Johnny Evers, captain Of the Boston
Braves, has Decome known as an UNI
pire-baiter because, In his own words,
he forgets all save the game when in
the thick of a struggle on the diamond.
lGrantland Rice tells of recent CONVEX
station with the veteran player on this
subject in the course of which Eyers
said:
"I don't believe in looking for a
chance to go after an umpire. But I
believe in a player putting his whole
heart and soul into game, in fighting
every minute he is on the field. And
when a player works himself into this
pitch it is hard to keep quiet when you
believe that some bad decision has cost
you a game that you worked so hard
to win.
'eYou say that getting after the UNI
pire doesn't ever change a decision or
do any good. Probably not. But when
am in a game never think of any
thing but winning that game. If I
didn't care, if I could take the game
easily, without getting keyed up, ]
would never open my mouth. But !
