BASEBALL

The father of baseball was Athner Doubleday, who was born in Ballston, Spa. N. Y, 100 years ago today, and died in Mendham, N. J., in 1893. He was distinguished general of the Union Army in the Civil war, but his greatest claim to fame Is as the 1n- ventor of Americas greatest pastime. It was while a student at Coopers- town, N. Y, that he originated the game to which the name of baseball was given, and which was an adap- tation and development of the older sports of "rounders' and "townba1l." !" The crude pastime contrived by Doubleday was further developed by Alexander J. Cartwright, one of his young associates, who invented the "diamond'' and in 1S45 helped to draft the first rules. In 1S46 the first match game between regulare clubs was played in Hoboken, N. J., two New York teams contesting. The first baseball association, an amateur or ganization, was launched in 1857, and in the same year Henry Chadwick, who shares with General Doubleday the title of father of baseball" pub lished the first official rule book. The first regular baseball plant was

Sake." is the big comedy hit. This well known vaudeville which by the way has established a record continuous run---is a big travesty melodrama of the good old-fashioned
 meller" type. The run continues from start to finish eight capable ar lists sharing honors in the produc- ton. It does just what it is intended to do-bring laughs and plenty of them.
 The photoplay program presents an interesting array. Dorothy Dalton, in The Lady of Red Butte.'' has one of the best starring vehicles of her ca reer. It is an interesting story of the love adventures of the evangelist and the girl who ran down the gambling helI' in a. mining town.
 Charley Chaplin is continuing to "dou'ble them up'' with his newest comedy. ''Sunnyside," which critics agree is one of his funniest. The Pathe News. in addition to other in teresting events, shows some exclu- sive views taken at Jack Dempsey's s training camp in Toledo.
 Carle and Inez contribute a happy repertoire of songs and dances; and Alma and Merriman Girls, in a de- lightful vaudeville novelty, complete the program in a way that wins them a lot of favorable attention.

HERE'S THE PERFECT KISS

Here we have 1t at last-the per feet kiss! Dolores Cassineli, whose brilliant epigrams, from her "1nsplra- ton and Ironies of Love" have arous- ed widespread appreciation and com ment, was the recipient of an especi- ally enthusiastic appraisal from Gar net Warren, the author of Twentieth Century Cameos." He wrote her that some of her amatory laconisms had the "flawless beauty of perfect kiss" And knowing that she might expect a glowing response from the passionate poet of the Antipodes,' Miss Cassinel1i, while graciously ac- knowledging his tribute, propounded- the question: Just what is a perfect kiss?"
 And now she is in the de1iciously bewildering knowledge of the oscula- tory secret Here is how MT. Warren tells it: T saw you give shadowy revelation of the perfect kiss in The Unknown Love- And, knowing that it was merely artistic sim ulation and barren of soul intimacies of the won derful actua1ity, I shall be glad to tell you the truth of it, according to my poor conception. The perfect kiss depends upon no simple art, however exceptional that art may be. Soul ana soul must there be who shall perform the higher functions-pluck, so 10 speak, the rare garlands of pleasure
 'fThey will be subtly attuned, these two; the selfsame languors must pos sess them both, the same nice sense effects An equilibrium there must be- which the balance of breath might well destroy. Such is kiss. There may be contacts, understand me, in which the more finely adjust ed balances are lacking- have known of many such-but the kiss supreme, in all the thrills of its re- sponsive tremulations, and dewed ec- -stacies and yielding, unselfish warmtf-Ah. Child of Romance-how precious a gift. and how memorable!'
 Miss CassinelH, being a talented musician, says she has thus been in spired to set the rhapsody to music in a Kiss Symphonyi

DAVID POWELL IS A
 HAPPY, SMILING "WILLIAN''

Davis Powell is glad to be a william, and this is why he is rejoicing that such a role has been assigned to him in The Teeth of the Tiger" In MT. Powelfs own words this is the story:
 "Before the days of the movies the heroes of the small boy were found in the books of Horatio Alger, Jr., and G. A. Henry. And occasionally from plays enough money was saved from running errands to purchase seat in the heaven" said MT. Powell.
 And then came the movies, cheap enough for all, once or twice a week. The man who can handle a gun the best is the object of everybody's open eyed admiration, so we are told.
 There was just such a boy as this in a town in the West,'' said Davis Powell He was ten years of age, a real boy, and he thought Bill Hart was the one man in the world. He would see his pictures two or three times and then organize the boys in the neighborhood to play cowboy, re- serving for himself the part of hero such as Bill Hart would play.
 And then one day there came in to his life a real live movie actor. No more Bill Harts for him; he knew the real thing He would wait for hours around the studio gate TOT a chance to walk up the street with his real hero. We'll happened to be the one who was favored with this admir- ation. I was at that time playing in one of these eternal triangle plays which boys of ten cannot understand
 At last, after seemingly endless waiting, the picture was shown in our boys town. But his hopes were crushed. He couldn't understand the picture, although he sat through it twice so that he wouldn't lose a mo- ton.
 "The next time he saw me it was by accident, because his hero was gone and he no longer waited around the studio gate. His first words were, You didn't even use a gum"
 When Dave Powell told me this story he had just come out of a scene where he held the chief of detectives and three other men at the point of a pistol while he and his love escaped through a door and then out a win dow.
 ESQ that's the reason I'm glad I'm a bad man at last he concluded. 'I am going to write to this little chap

JOTTINGS
(By ID. J. L.)

The latter day porter is through with his porting, Tho brakeman refuses to brake. The old court attendant is through with his counting. The fakir refuses to fake. No more does the erstwhile profess sfonal dancer, Attend us with breakdown and
 bow. And this is the final and consummate answer They're writing scenarios now. No more does the tramp hit the high ways and byways, The pedlar refuses to ped. These gallant Lotharios now write scenarios To garner their few crumbs of
 bread. The travelling salesman has shortened his season, The farmer abandons his COW; The plumbers stopped plumbing, and this is the reason: They're writing scenarios now.

PARIS RECEPTION TO
JUSTICE BRANDEIS.

On his way to Palestine, Mr..
Justice Brandeis, Honorary Presi-
dent of the Zionist Organization of
America was the guest at an infor-
NAL reception by the Zionists of
Paris. The principal speaker was
Mr.. Nahum Sokolow, who met Mr..
Brandeis some years ago in Ameri-
ca. Mr.. Brandeis was not yet
member of the United States ST.
preme Court, nor was he then iden-
titled with the Zionist movement
Mr.. Sokolow was profoundly inn
pressed with the personality of the
coming leader, and expressed the
opinion to an American friend that
Mr.. Brandeis would yet become a
prominent factor in the fate of
Jewry. The person to whom Mr..
Soko1ow expressed this opinion
said to him 'You are a dreamer"
Two years later, when Mr..
Brandeis had become a member Of
the movement, Mr.. Sokolow's friend
said to him "You are poet" A
few years later, Mr.. Soko1ow again
met his American friend and pointed
out to him the progress of Zionism
in America, of which Mr. Brandeis
had become the moving spirit
Wherer1pon. his friend said to him
"You are neither a dreamer nor a
poet, you are prophet
In responding to the various adj
dresses which were delivered at this
reception, Mr.. Brandeis said that
the Zionist political situation was
very satisfactory, and laid stress
upon the grand opportunity which
was now offering itself, closing with
an expression of his confidence that
because the Jews had suffered for
two thousand years, and struggled
for two thousand years that they
would know how to suffer and
work, and in the end gain vastly
from the opportunity which now
lies before them in Palestine.
Among those present at the re-
ception were Mr.. Jacob de Haas,
Professor Zimmern of the Univer-
sity Of Wales, who are accompany
ing Mr. Brandeis to Palestine, Prof.

kin, Mr.. Bernard G, Richards, Al

ZIONIST COURSES FOR THE
TRAINING OF HEBREW
TEACHERS.

es for the training of Hebrew teach
ers, conducted under the auspices of
the Department of Education of the
Zionist Organization of America, Mr..
Emanuel Neumann, Educational Di-
rector, has issued the following state
ment:
Soon after the Department of Edit
cation began its work in the fall of
1918, it was found that there existed
throughout the country great dearth
of Hebrew teachers. Owing to the
great decrease in immigration from
European countries, the operation of
the selective draft, and other circum-
stances, the supply of Hebrew teach
ers became so limited that all Hebrew
educational efforts in this country ap-
peared to be seriously threatened. The
Department of Education Of the Zion
list Organization, therefore, undertook
as an emergency measure the estab-
lishment of courses for the purpose of
giving brief intensive training to men
and women who alread y possess good
Hebrew education, and thus prepare
them at the earliest possible moment
to fill some of the vacancies.
AS the result of announcements is
sued by the Department of Education,
upward of 100 men and women ap-
piled for admission to the courses. Of
these, so applicants were accepted as
possessing the required qualifications.
The courses were begun on Sunday,
May II, 1919. AS had been anticipat
ed, most of the students have re-
ceived their education in European
Yehivahs and have a good grounding
in the Hebrew language, Bible, Tai
mud, and the more modern Hebrew
literature.
The subjects of instruction at the
courses are: Bible, Hebrew literature,
Jewish History, and Methods of
Teaching. The teaching staff consists
of Messrs. A. H. Fried1and, T..
Scharfstein, K. Whiteman, D. Persky,
and w. Frischberg, who is also act
ing in the capacity of Secretary of the
courses. In addition, a number of
prominent educators have been invited
to deliver series of lectures that will
serve to give the prospective teachers
a better grasp on the problems of
Jewish education in this country.
