Opportunity for Advancement.
The opportunity for advancement is
limited only with the presidency of
the United States. Women can go as
far as they show themselves really
able. The field of politics offers more
than any other field for women all
the incentive of unlimited advance

ability.
For women the financial returns are
decidedly good. Salaries of public
officials have an enormous range. from
the Presidents $4,000 and travelling

Organizers in parties get from $50 to

Variety in the Meat Diet.

The meat diet of the average Amer
ican family is made up principally of
beef. pork and mutton. OF these
three. beef and pork are by far the
more popular. Mutton. which for a
long time was not extensively used,
has Of late been gradually gaining in
popularity.
The reason is evident The human
scores Of enticing beef and pork
dishes, yet mutton represents an al
together different kind of meat. and
can Also be served in many appetizing
ways
The ordinary cuts of mutton and
lamb are perhaps not as familiar as
those of beef and pork. Sheep and
lambs are divided into fore-quarters
and hind d-quarters. The hind quarters
are known to the trade as saddles and
the fore quarters as market cut racks
The saddles are divided into legs and
mutton loin. while the hotel cut loin
has the flank trimmed off and the
kidney removed.
. The fore-QuarterS are made up of
hotel rack and stew. stew being some
times divided into chucks and wings
know them, come from the loins and
the hotel cut rack. The hind legs
furnish the famous roasts of leg Of
mutton or lamb. The well known
lamb and mutton stews come from the
chucks and wings.
There is great variety of other
products of lamb and mutton which
the average household sees only in
frequently and yet they make marvel
Gus dishes that will delight the most
epicurean tastes. For instance. there
are sheep tongues. heads and brains.
lamb sweetbreads and fries. sheep
kidneys and piucks. These parts are
only a small portion of the entire
animal, but they are not rare or ex-
pensive. because they are not in uni
versal demand.

Sterilizing Milk Bottles
Vital to Consumers Health

Too much emphasis cannot be given
to the fact that only thorough wash
ing. steaminE and drying produces
sterile container for milk and that
milk should not be allowed in any
other than a sterile container at any
time. and particularly II the milk has
been pasteurixed or otherwise heated
The washing and sterilizing OF re-
turned empty milk bottles to n city
milk plant constitutes a big problem.
Bottles are received in varying con-
ditions of cleanliness and from the
many and varied sources Of collection.
and 1t becomes somewhat OF an ac-
complishment to make them sterile
containers for milk.
The incubation from the empty
bottle can be reduced to a minimum
by thorough washing. steaming and
draining. and as this is possible and
highly important from a health point
of view no other method should be
tolerated.
Placing pasteurized milk in bottle
which has not been steriliZed just
previously lessons the efficiency of
the pasteurizing process and helps to
defeat it's purposes.

REX And KNICKS
FAIL TO AGREE
Effort to Come to Terms on
Series in August Tenn
porarily Baked.

Efforts of the Knickerbocker A.
c. and Rex A: c. teams to come to
an agreement under which a series
OF games might be played in Aug
ust, failed last night, when the
Knickerbocker manager protested
the. name Of outSelder Johnny Blair
on the Rex eligibility list.
Blair has been playing profession
al ball in the Blue Ridge league.
but Manager James L. Wright of
the Rex team declared that he had
served notification that he was go
ing to quit the league and return
to the Rex outfit. with which he
has played for several years. The
Rex team is admittedly a semi-pro
organizat ton and feels that Blair, as
a former member, is eligible TO par
ticipate in the series with the
Knicks.
Manager Carroll Daily of the
Knickerbockers refused to accept
Blair's name and negotiations were
temporarily suspended. The knick-
erbockers are strictly an amateur
outfit, but have expressed desire
to match their strength with the
Rex team.
1t is believed that an agreement
may yet be reached between the
two teams. 1t was planned to play
three games, one on the grounds Of
eack. of the clubs, and the third on
the American league grounds, If
they are available.

SCOUT GRIFFITH
LANDS new MEN
Pitcher Acostai and In6eld-
er Hoolhan Secured
From Rochester Club.

Returns from Clark Grifith's
mysterious scouting trip are trick
ling in.
Tho first two players secured to
bolster up the team are Pitcher
Acosta and Infielder Holohan of
Arthur Irwin's Rochester team in
the International league. This an
aouncement comes from Griffith
himself. He was gum-shoeing
around Akron yesterday. but there's
no telling where he Is today.
1t Is now apparent that lBasi
Workmen, the left-hander who was
night, constitutes part payment for
the two Rochester players. There
is a strong probability that a bit of
cash also changed hands bsfore the
deal was completed.
Acosta Has inning Record.
In Acosta the National Boss has
landed a slabman on whom he has
looked with longing eyes for some
time. uring the last Spring train
ing season Acosta player with a
Cuban aggregation, trounced the
Griffs on two occasions. He is not
much in poundage. but Is said to
have a world of stuff and plenty of
control.
NDespite the fact that he has been
playing with a losing team, Acosta
has been able to win a large share
Of his games at Rochester. Records
show thst he has returned winner
twelve times in seventeen starts He
has averaged les than two bases on
balls a game and has seventy
eight s.rikeouts to his credit
In his last two games Acosta
has held his opponents to three
hits and yet was not able to win.
Little is known of Holohan's
work. Though a third baseman and
shortstop by preference. he has been
used at second of late by Irwin.
AS a fielder he is reputed to be
capable performer. but it re-
mains to be seen whether he can
hit.
Report Here Sunday.
The two players will leave with
the team for Cleveland Sunday
night, according to present plans.
Rumor has it that Grifith will
have several other new players to
announce when he returns. 1t is
understood that he was very ia
vorably impressed with what he
heard of Sheridan. shoststop of the
Reading club Of the International
League. This infielder is an unu-
sually heavy hitter and the chances
are that he will be inspected by
the demon ivory hunter.
Griffith will probably be on hand
to leave for Cleveland with the
team Sunday night, and by that
time the complete story of his wan
derings should be available.
