Followed by their accustomed jinx
the varsity nine lost its second game
of the week by 10 score to Connect
cut Agricultural College Saturday after
noon on Porter Field. Middlebury's
batsmen registered three more hits than
did the visiting team but failed to
tighten up in critical moments OF the
game. The score remained - until
the seventh when Middlebury's batting
rally aided by six errors of the Con-
necticut team brought in four runs. In
the next frame, however, the varsity
blew up and with two down allowed
five men to cross the pan before the
third man was caught out by Hinchey.
Geddes, twirlng his first game for
Middebury, pitched good ball with the
exception of the eighth inning when he
allowed 3 hits and gave the visitors
two free tickets to first. He struck
out seven men and held the agricultural
nine to total of seven hits while
Sawin, the visiting mound artist, al
lowed ten and registered eight strike
outs.

SOME FACTS ABOUT DRESS
SHIELDS S-WHAT THEY ARE

Dress shields are made from sheet
of gum placed between two layers Of
cloth, or from . waterproof cloth.
The sheet gum shields are far the
more durable. They are made from
rubber or balata, q gum very similar
to rubber. The rubber used in the
shields is vulcanized and will stand
NOR heat than balata, but the balata
shields have less odor.
When cloth is made waterproof by
being treated with rubber, it is known
as rubberized cloth, but when the cloth
is treated witr soluble cotton and cas-
tor oil, it is called pyroxylin. Shields
made from either material are light
in weight and wear fairly well, but
since the seam in the arm eye is
cemented there is danger Of leakage.
Shields range in size from one TO
ten and the best results are obtained
when the correct size is chosen. Sizes
three and four are best for the aver
age woman. Stout women should
choose the shield having long point
at the front. Shields should be fiat
tened into the dress SO that there viii
be no chance for the flaps to curl.
Shields should not be worn in coat
unless the waist is also protected by
shields.

SEWING ON SNAP.FAsTENERs
AND THE RIGHT SIZES TO BUY

Agricultural College News Notes.
When the snap fasteners are button
holed on they will not pull of easily.
Clumsy sewing often punches the
thread and prevents the fasteners
from closing securely, particularly in
using the small press button.
Use a single thread when sewing
on \ fastener. Having located the
position Of the snap, take two or
three stitches in the material to Sc
curely fasten the thread. Sew thru
each hole three or four times, putting
the needle thru the material at the
edge Of the snap and bringing il up
thru the hole in the snap. Throw
the thread around the needle in the
direction you are sewing. This should
be from right to left unless one is
left handed. Fasten the thread by
taking three or four back stitches as
close to the fastener as possible.
When sewing on the upper half of
the fastener be careful not to take
the stitches thru both thickness of
the material as they will show on the
righ side.
For holding quality, use the ball
and socket fastener with the wire

SOME IMPORTANT POINTS
IN MAKING SALADS

Nothing is more appetizing than .
well-made, artistically arranged salad
be It vegetable, fruit or meat salad.
Salad Of any kind il always better
served on individual plates, unless
the family consists Of but two or three
members. Nothing lends itself to
the making Of . delicious salad SO
well rs does crisp, tender lettuce. In
combining lettuce or any kind Of sal
ad greens, be sure that they are crisp
and tender. Tough salad is rs taste
less and about as appetizing rs hay.
Examine the lettuce or salad greens
and trim off all coarse or wilted leaves
and separate those used in the salad.
wash well and place in cold water or
on ice to become crisp. Do not make
the salad too early before time to serve
as it will become wilted and watery.
Other ingredients of salads should
always be cut into small cubes or at
least small, uniform pieces. This ap-
plies especially to apples, potatoes,
fruit or meat salads. Tomato salad
is better served with the tomato left
whole, but peeled and the top removed
to form a cup. Avoid getting too

SOME THINGS SODA WILL DO

Besides using soda in "riz" biscuits
you can use it in many other things
as well. and save many q penny.
For instance: Soda is a splendid
deodorizer for any utensil. A teas
poonful of soda boiled up with little
water in any kettle in which fish has
has been cooked is the finishing touch
in cleaning the kettle.
Occasionally it is good plan to
boil teaspoonful of soda in the tea
and coffee pots with a little water.
Put the water in cold and allow it and
the soda to come to a boil. This will
make the inside of the receptacle as
clean and bright as ever.
Place dingy looking silverware in a
pan containing q strong solution of
boiling water and baking soda and
let cool enough to handle, then, with
soft flannel rag 60 over each piece
while wet, and you will have q polish
not equaled by any silver polish.
and bright IL it is rubbed over the ar
ticle with tissue paper or q soft rag.
then wiped of with dry cloth. /,
Chinaware or earthenware dishes
that are stained brown in places. can
be whitened by rubbing them with a
little baking soda.
II you get q bad burn Of any kind
on your person, and the skin is not
broken, place thick layer of common
baking soda over the burn, you will
be surprised how il relieves the sting
ing pain, and the skin will not blister.
A little soda in warm water makes
. good bath to wash sore or bad cut
with when the flesh shows signs Of in
fection or is beginning to swell. In
almost every case, the sore will soon
heal. Hives are easily relived by
treating them with a water and soda
bath.
A teaspoonful of soda in a cup Of
warm water is good antiseptic gar
gle.
When milk appears to be on the
verge of souring, q pinch Of soda will
prevent it from turning at once.
In making cream-tomato soup the
milk is apt to crude II not handled
right. However, il the milk and to-
matoes are boiled separately and just
before mixing, pinch Of soda is ad-
ded to the boiling milk, it will not
curtile when poured into the tomatoes.
A handful Of soda thrown into the
bath gives cooling effect to the skin
in hot weather, and relieves the rash
left by mosquito bites.

Hints For the Home Dressmaker
A FEW SEWING MACHINE HINTS

How many women know that coal
oil will save sending for a repair man
when the sewing machine becomes
gummed with oil and dirt?
Just pour a little coal oil into each
oil hole, remove the thread and run
the machine few minutes. The coal
oil cuts the dirt and gummed oil and
should then be wiped of, as well as
all dirt and foreign substance around
the works. Oil with a good, clean
sewing machine oil and the machine
will run rs good as ever.

Canning Tomatoes

Tomatoes that are too soft for table
use or those which have became broken
should be canned at once to prevent
spelling. They are much better than
store canned tomatoes. Just peel the
tomatoes and cut up then place on the.
stove and allow to boil for ten or fif-
teen minutes. Seal in jars. Do not
add anything. not even water, while
cooking, it is unnecessary and will
spoil the fruity taste Of the tomatoes.
Properly sealed, they will keep for
years.
