Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: l am the
same girl who wrote you letter last
year. | am fourteen now and l am
through school. | would like to know
if l can make money by crocheting
lace. can do some real we'll l have
to stay home and help, but afternoons
| could crochet some. We have a new
baby four months old and l take care
of him and the children afternoons.
My brother who works used to gvie
me fifty. cents every week and
bought some clothes, but he got hurt
a month ago at the factory and so he
has to stay home until he gets well
On my last birthday l invited five
girls over to my party who were in
my room at school, l told them we
were going to have lemonade and
cake. My mother baked a nice big
cake but not one of the girls came
My mother was mad about it and it
made me cry. The girls go together
but they always leave me out and ii
makes me feel badly and lonesome,
for | like company. Why do you sup
pose they did that? Ny mother won't
let me ask them why.
| always tried to be nice to them
and gave them flowers when l had
some. ] wish you could tell me how
to get them to like me. Is it only
because my clothes are not pretty
| am neat and clean, but l am mo-
pretty like my sisters. l wish | were
for folks always like pretty girls best
My older sister is beautiful and ha:
beautiful clothes now, for she works
Won't you please answer soon anC
tell me how to get lace to crochet
MABEL TANNING.
About the only way for you to ge
crochet work to do at home is to asl
in a department store if they can givt
you work or TO go from door, shown:
some things you have made and tax
ing orders. 1t is very difficult to sc
cure work of that nature.
am indignant about the party
They used to say that there were n
classes in America and that persol
did not need to have money to be lik
ed. A new spirit sprang up with tn
war and now money seems to speal
louder than anything else. l hav
noticed, however that with tn
trouble that has come from lack o
employment there has also come
The girls who did not go to you
party thought they were somebod
that they were not. In the eyes O
the world they may be all right be
cause they are dressed well, but i
the eyes Of God they are small an
unh:nd. Live so that you will be beat
tiful in the eyes of God and. some
time you will be recognized for you
worth.
While your mother needs you. it
right that you should stay at HON
and help. In a few years when tn
baby is older it may be that she ca
spare you and you can go to work. L
the meantime read and improve you
mind so that you will be able to
important things which take INTEL
gence and education. The libraria
can help you just as she helped you
brother.
| am sorry not to give you more ell
couragement about crochet work, BIT
if you are persistent l believe you ca
get customers.

Russell. former White SOx pitcher and now stellar outfielder for the Millers.
 The story of his rise to fame, with it's subsequent loss and recovery, dates back to 1912.
 Starting his professional career at Bonham. in northern Texas, that year, Russell's stay in the minors was brief to the utmost. Finishing the year with Fort Worth, the southpaw sensation was bought by the Chicago Americans. Comiskey offered him three-year con- tract at the outset because of his be- lief in the left-hander's ability. He was then twenty-three years old.
 Reb got into the fimelight at once, pitching the White Sox to p vic tories, while losing but 16 games in his first year. He continued with the Sox until 1919, the climax of his career coming during the 1917 world series between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Giants.
 In 1918 he lost his effectiveness and in the following year was released outright. After making an unavail- ing attempt to "come back" for the Indianapolis American association team at the beginning of the 1920 sea son, and after other minor league teams turned him down, Russell went to work in a garage in Indianapolis.

TILDEN MAKES NEW RECORD IN TENNIS
 CHAMPIONSHIP SET
Retains Title by Beating Johnson in Time of Forty-Three
 Minutes.

Philadelphia, Sept 23,-William T. Tilden, 2d, of this city is again ma tional tennis champion. He won the 1921 title by defeating Wallace F. Johnson, also of this city, O., 6-3, 6-I, in the final round of the 10th annual championship singles tournament of the United States Tennis Association in what is said to be the record time of 43 minutes.
 Tilden rose to super-heights in the play. The speed and accuracy ot both his service and return strokes so dazzled and smothcred Johnson that the latter was placed i'll such a de- fensivc position that he never for a moment appeared to have even a fighting chance. As a result of his victory Tilden's name will again be inscribed upon the championship trophy which he won for the first time last season.
 He now has two legs upon the cup, placing him on a level with Maurice E. Mclaughlin, who won in 1912 and I3; R. Norris Williams, winner in 1914 and I6, and William M Johnston, holder in 1915 and 1919. William A. Larned and R. Lindley Murray have also won this particular cup once, the play dating back to 1911 when 1t was placed in compe- tition.
 If Tilden can retain the type of game he showed during the 1922 sea son, the final winning of this particu- lar championship is a foregone con- clusion. It is doubtful if any tennis player in the modern history of the game could have hurled back Tilden. Certainly no such display of terrific service, driving and smashing has been seen in recent seasons. While Johnson's comparatively soft game may have paved the way for this dis play of cyclonic tennis, the accur- acy with which Tilden directed and controlled his returns was little short of mervelous
 Against the bombardment of can non-ball returns Johnson was almost helpless Many of his shots tore past him with such speed that he could not get his racquet on them; others were placed in inaccessible corners of the court and were bounding off the back stop before Johnson reach ed the place where a little putt ot dust marked their passing. In the face of this overwhelming otfcnse and annihilating speed the runner ups chopped and under cut returns were futile. Johnson piled up an un- usual number of errors in attempt ing to return Tilden's drives, due to an utter inability to keep the ball on his racquet long enough to control the direction of his shots. While errors were comparatively even, Til den had 5 earned points to John sons four.
 The match was played under per feet weather conditions and witness ed by more than 10000 spectators.

The Franklin Athletic Club will run a fair for three nights beginning Fri day evening, September 30, and end ing October }. This is the first time in over a decade that the Frankins have attempted to stage an affair of any kind and it will be interesting to watch and sec if the club can make as great a success with this under taking as they did in the good old days when they were the leaders in the popularity class.

RUTH TOPPLES
 3 MORE RECORDS

Babe" Ruth the Yankee super-ball player, created American League history during the past week of the pennant race bv adding three more to his long list of records.
 The Bambino on September 8, by v1r- tue of a single and home run of Ed Rommel of the As, showed his total bases on hits up to 4O1, the highest of any hitter in all the forty-six years of major play. This beats by two bases the major league record set last year by George Sisler of the Browns when he hit 399 total bases
 The National League record for total bases on hits is held by Hugh Duffy. now directing the affairs of the Red Sox. Duffy, while pastiming with the Boston. Nationals in 1894 hit for total of 372 bases.
 Ruth, with his great ambition to con- quer, did not wait long before setting an- other mark, for on September 10, he tal1ied three times off the Athletics, breaking his own American League fig ure of 158 tallies scored by him last year The major league run-scOrlng record was set by Billy Hamilton of the Phil lies when he ta1lied 102 runs for the season of 1894.
 The third record Babe" hung up was made Thursday when he lifted one of Pitcher Bayne's offerings for home run, thus eclipsing his performance of last season when he amassed ffty-four round-trip clouts. On Friday, he added another and now has title to fifty-six.

Shooting Is a Knack.

Good shooting eyes never go hack much.
 R. F. Heikes, winner of the first Grand American Handicap trapShoot in 1900, is still a con- tender in big shoots.
 Heikes won the Grand Amer ican with score of 91 at P yards.
 Woolfolk of Dayton, O., was the only other man to win the big shoot at this distance. He broke 9S targets for high score In 1914.
 Shooting is knack, especially with shotgun at the traps.
 Once you get 1t you keep 1t. But the handicap in distances has so far kept any champion from repeating.

Britishers Waking Up.

England is coming back as a world power in sports. The spirit is reviving which makes any na- tion worthy leader. The change has been noted since the war.
 Her weakness has been her own complacency. She has orig mated games, taught them to the world, and then sat back satisfied to see other countries develop the stars and cash in. \
 To be a winner in sport the players must take 1t seriously.
 That Is what England has not done in the past.
