WINTER LEAGUE BASEBALL
OWNERS FACE BIG LOSS
Four Coast Teams Will Drop $45,

San Francisco, Dec. 2.-Approxi.
mately $40, 900 will be lost by owners
Of clubs in the new California Winter
Baseball League during its ten weeks
season, which closes December ). accord
ing to estimates by league officials here.
Lack of patronage is given as the
reason.
The league is made up of four clubs
representing Los Angeles, Vernon, San
Francisco and the Mission districts of
San Francico. Four major league stars,
Roger Hornsby, George Sisler, Ty Cobb
and Harry Heilmann, are pilots Of the
teams. The other players are from the
Pacific Coast Baseball League.
Owners of the Winter League clubs
are identified with the Coast League
teams. At the opening of the season
they took out inurance against rain and
this cut down their losses, for rain has
caused cancellation of thirteen games
here to date, and one in Los Angeles.

Ought to Be Enough
Metal
BY JESSE r. GUILFORD

Amateur Golf Champion OF the United states
TN MY last article ! mentioned that
i in approaching we have different
clubs to take care Of the various dis
tances required. There are a great
number of iron clubs, and believe that
a player makes mistake in carrying
too many irons with him. He should
make a few do the work, and thus In
using few he becomes more familiar
with them. II man carries around
ten or twelve irons the chances are that
he Is using none of them we'll, and
before each stroke is made he debates
with himself just which club he should
use and why.
Fewer Irons Better
Nov If you have fewer irons you
~ will have definite use for each
one of them, and there will not be the
cause of wondering which club is better
suited to that particular play. Then
again the man who carries too many
irons-and it is not an eXaggeration to
say ten or twelve. for | know several
golfers who carry that many--never gets
accustomed to any particular one.
The result is that he very often gets
the idea that his mashie is not suited to
his game. and he goes out in search of
a new one, whereas the truth is he has
not given himself the opportunity to
get accustomed to It.
The next day 1t is his niblick which
goes wrong. and he decides that that,
too, is at fault. 1t is an expensive
habit. this one Of having a raft Of irons.
for the more you get the more you seem
to need.
Get a set of irons and give them a
thorough tryout, bearing in mind also
to limit the number of your set.
MY SET of irons consists of Seren
I'VE clubs: driving iron, midiron.

made according to the Navy speci-
hcations from unripened or sweet
cream. instead Of from the cream
ripened to sohrnesa Of which most
creamery buttef is made.
The principal reason the Navy
desires sweet cream butter is that
1t keeps better. As the larger part
OF the butter supply is made dur
ing the summer months, 1t Is neces-
sary to put some of 1t in cold stor-
age in order to have enough for
winter. and in the course of time II
develops various more or less unde-
sirable favors due to long storage
Butter made from sweet cream
does not develop such favors for =

tions; hence sweet cream butver n

We are three young girls-with

University man whom we see
frequently going to and from school
In a Buick coupe. He seems To be
attracted by US but he never speaks.
knowing that we are not the kind
who make promiscuous acquaint-
ances.
We have singled this young man
out from ali those at the ~" and at
Georgetown as being the only good
looking man at either place. He Is
really wonderful and his smile Is
perfect. We cali him Gabriel.
But the question Is how can we
meet him? The fellows all seem to
be jealous OF him and won't intro

In this matter. please. 1t means
SO much to us and may even change
the future OF one OF US.

CORN. MUSHROOM AND GREE
PEPPERS.


PEPPERS.
These three vegetables cooked to-
gether form a very delightful dish.
which may be used either as an en-
tree or as a vegetable. To the corn
from six ears should be added
half pound or less OF mushrooms,
and two sweet green peppers, which
should be shredded. The musb-
rooms should be fresh. but IL canned
mushrooms are used they must be
cut In thin slices. In cooking these
vegetables together a generous
amount OF good sweet butter should
be used. or, II preferred, olive oil
and butter may be combined. When
the butter is melted, turn the pre-
pared vegetables In the pan, add
salt and pepper and stir frequently
to prevent any tendency to stick to
the pan. Do not cook more than
eight minutes. as five minutes is
enough to cook the corn and the
mushrooms. and ine peppers are
better not TO be quite well done,
as there is a bitterness to peppers
II they are well cooked. The fresh
mushrooms should be cooked ten or
more minutes before the corn is
added. but II canned mushrooms are
used they are already cooked.-Mrs.

Is Your Boy
a Force?
By DR.. VIM. A. McKeever.

BY Dr. VIM. A. Mckeever.
IN THE history of America there
Is scarcely to be found q record
OF three successive generations
of distinguished personalities in the
same family line.
In the first generation you may
often find sturdy pioneer parents.
rearing a family in comparative
want and perhaps acquiring a COM
petence in advancing years
In the second generation you viii
hnd certain children who, having
been disciplined in the school OF
hard times and hard knocks, not
only possess wealth but also reach
a conspicuous place In society.
In the third generation, in the
typical case, you will find children
OF good birth and breeding but
schooled in the soft refinements of
ease and comfort Their attain
ments are mediocre.
The foregoing Is substantially
the statement of DR.. Franklin II.
Giddings. one OF Americas great
est scholars In social philosophy.
And to me this estimate not only
appears to be true, but IL has an
almost startling Significance. Why
does the curve of achievement pass
so regularly from personal integ-
rity to conspicuous achievement
and from that drop suddenly to
mediocrity?
II we examine a long list OF in
stances like the foregoing: that IL,
IL we consider many representatives
of each OF the three types in groups
to themselves, we get a set OF
rather uniform conditions surround
ing each type.
First-Want. hunger. privation,
loneliness, and usually deep relig-
ious conviction and faith in God.
Secondhand work, close conf,ne-
ment. enforced thrift, strong indi-
viduality. self-rellance. sccumula-
tion OF property, large common
sense, and finally n relatively sd-
vanced place in citizenshiplA
Third-Home comforts. little or
no industrial training, less re-
sponsibility. surplus OF leisure.
pronigacy In spending. excess OF
social amusement, habit OF looking
to parents for financial backing.
Certain forms OF discipline most
definitely contributed to the making
OF the able citizenship of the
second generation; Work. home
