PUNISH SKIN,
SAYS BEAUTY ARTIST
BY NINE. MOREAU

The trouble with most amateur
beauty artists and some profession
ais, is that in trying to properly
care for the skin, they massage too
hard. They punish the surface by
fairly scrubbing it. They scrub 1t,
too, when they put the powder on
and that's just as bad.
So don't eve rub your face hard
If you want it to remain a nice
young face. You'll rub all of the
elasticity and firmness away and
have sagging muscles and lines.
Put the cream, tho skin food, the
muscle oil or the astringent on with
a very light touch, sort of slither
it over your skin with an up stroke.
And don't forget when you get out
your patter and spank the little
lines away to spank up always up.
your neck and your shoulders.
Slithcr the cream on and then begin
to spank with the spanker squeezed
out of ice water and dipped in
astringent.
Mustn't forget your neck and
shoulders. They must be just as
pretty and glowing as your face,
you know, for you'll be going to
parties in your low cut gowns this
winteQ The place under the chin
where txtra chins are beginning to
grow needs, patting, too. That
mustn't give up an get fabby.
And you can give yourself a pack
right in your wi home IL you just
want to spare the time and use the
towels. Take n nice long piece of
absorbent cotton, one which will
reach from one side of you hair line
to the other, passing under your
chin. Then take another n which
will fit right across your eyes and
nose. Squeeze them out of ice
water and then III of strong astrin-
gent, lay each in a towel or piece of
very clean cotton or linen cloth and
then put them on. Have h towel
| which goes under your chin long
enough so that you can pin it to-
gether at the top of your head, and
make it fit snugly.
Then with your eyes closed sit
back and rest while your muscles
shrink up firm and nice as they
were when you were a girl!

HERE'S A GOLF STORY
WITH A LAUGH.

When the Browns reached Mobile
this Spring on a preseason tour,
found that golf match had been ar
ranged between Milton Stock, of the
Cardinals, whose home is in that city,
Wayne Wright Of the Louisville club,
formerly a Brown, myself and an
other gentleman. All of us were in
fine form that day. Oh yes, in such
excellent form that / imagine the
lowest score made was around 125
or whereabouts. We had a great deal
Of sport out of the game, however,
and were followed around the course
by battery of moving picture cam
era men and newspaper reporters
who apparently found real news
value in the fact that ball players
sometimes participate in other games.
But we got our real laugh next morn
ing when the Mobile morning papers
informed US that the highest score
made was around 80 and that at least
one of the players had made the
sporty course in a par II. Each Of
US has since declined to play any
matches, preferEing to rest on the
laurels we won in this historic ses-
sion. For proof of our scores we
merely exhibit the clippings which,
of course, each Of those who partici-
pated carries in his vest pocket at all
times.

MIKE GIBBONS AND
HIS COME BACK.

The world of pugilism win well
come the announcement that Mike
Gibbons is to stage a come back. For
never has cleaner, more intelligent
man entered the squared circle than
this same phantom boxer" And it
is not money, nor the lure of the
purse which is to draw Gibbons into
the ring. It is the desire to again
bring the middleweight championship
to his home city Of st. Paul.
Mike O'Dowd was formerly pu-
oil of Gibbons. He learned all the
rudiments of boxing in the gymna-
stun conducted by the Gibbons broth
ers and then proceeded to win a
worlds title. When he lost this to
Johnny Wilson and on his second bat
tie with that fighter failed to regain
the civic and racial pride of Mike
Gibbons, he (Gibbons) was stirred to
such an extent that he came from his
retirement and announced his willing
ness to encounter Wilson in a title
match. This has apparently been ar
ranged now and the pugilistic. fans
will watch with high degree of in
terest the efforts of the Phantom"
to win the title.
Mike Gibbons has always been the
flashiest and most pleasing boxer of
the ring. He has lacked only one
thing, Knockout punch, and it is
said this has been only because he
has always preferred winning on
points to knocking out his opponent.
But in the battle to come he promises
to use the punch necessary to floor

Hoppe, and the most famed fancy

And Horemans is all that has been

which is all compelling in winning
the respect and admiration of those
who watch him play

What Of the White sox?

What Of the White Sox?
II is a question which has been
asked more times than one can i'm
agne this season, and which is of
as great interest to the average fan
as the question Of who is to win the
pEnnant in either major league.
And small wonder that this is true.
Imagine a cOnquering army, one
whose morale was apparently of the
best and highest character, watch this
army as it sweeps before it all foes
and see its commanders and its men
as well moving in perfect, pleasing
rhythm as they NOW before them
those opponents reckless enough to
step within their cycle.
Then visualize this army suddenly
depleted, its strongest links dissipated
and eVaporated, the morale lowered
by the knowledge that all has not
vbeen well within the ranks of the
army itself, the old punch and pep"
taken from it.
That is what happened to the Chi
eagO White Sox, to my mind and to
that of many another ball player and
fan who was familiar with their work,
the greatest baseball machine of re-
cent years, perhaps at one time the
greatest that has ever been built. In
1919 the general impression obtained
that the White Sox were unbeatable
and It is still the opinion of the great
majority of fans that had some seven
OF the players in the worlds series
OF that year slept in beds from which
the pillows had been removed, the
White SOx would easily have won the
worlds title. reference is here had,
of course, to the fact that one of the
indicted players stated that the
money for throwing the games in
that series was placed under the pill
AoRs of the offending players).
ThHre were murmurings and whis-
pgrTHgs following that now historic
series and in some corners there
were dropped broad hints that all was
not quite as it should have been. The
WThEE remembers we'll that only a
dry or so after the series, a man
well qualified to know the inside
of sports, remarked that the series
had been fixed" and that he was
sure Of it. The uncanny thing about
all this was the fact that this particu-
lar gentleman, himself above suspi-
eIon by the way, analysed the situa-
ton within an ace of its actuality.
At the time / gave no thought to
these whisperings, however, and
Eathed 'pooh-poOhed" the idea of this
man that anything crooked" could
have developed Clean baseball is SO
desirable that to the mind of the
average ball player nothing other
than this sort of a game ever sug-
gests itself

Suddenly deprived of the services

nucleus which presented itself in
the person of one star, Eddie Collins
than whom a more polished player
does not exist. AS a pitching staff
he had Urban Faber, veteran of many
a battle, and Dickie Kerr, the hero
Of the 1919 worlds series, the one
man whom the gamblers did not fig
ure upon as being likely to pitch in
that classic. Behind the bat there
was old reliable Ray Schalk. John
Collins and Memo Liebold had been
traded during the off season and in
their stead was Harry Hooper, who
had exchanged the Rex Sox for the
White.
Here was a team which the pre-
vious spring had all the appearance
of world beaters, team which then
numbered as it's stars such men as
Weaver, Cicotte, Jackson, Felsch,
Williams, Risberg and Gandil, were
missing from lineup which had
only a few months before been con-
sidered almost impregnable. It is not
hard to imagine what task con-
fronted the skipper Of the new Sox.
Bogalusa enterprise and American. (Bogalusa, La.) 1918-19??, 1921-04-28

Gleason has an infield which is,
with the single exception of Eddie
Collins, that Of the Salt, Lake team
Of year and two years ago. Shee7
ley, Johnson and Mulligan have
worked together on the Salt Lake
club and know the pecularities and
playing characteristics of one another
well. This in itself should be a big
advantage and undoubtedly is such.
They are faced with the thought all
ways that they must make good in
the major to replace three scintilat-
ing stars, but at the same time they
have also the knowledge that the fans
are with them. The prified White
Sox are certain to be popular team
and to have the sympathy of the
baseball loving public.
The rejuvenated Sox do not ap-
pear to be an exceptionally heavy
hitting team, but one remembers in
that connection that some years ago
another White Sox team, known then
as the 'hitless wonders" breezed
through to a worlds championship.
The pitching this year appears to de-
pend almost solely upon Faber and
Kerr, although some of the recruits
may come through in nice shape and
surprise the fans who follow the for
tunes of the team. It is my impress
sion that the Sox will not finish last,
as many have picked them to do.
Neither will they burn up any paths
in their efforts to win a flag. / be-
lieve that Gleason is facing the same
problem that Connie Mack has had
before him for several years past,
Bogalusa enterprise and American. (Bogalusa, La.) 1918-19??, 1921-04-28
THE TASK OF REBUILDING
is NOT HOPELESS ONE.

But Gleason has not been dis
mayed. Many managers would have
been appalled, at the idea. But Glea-
son started out to build around the
nucleus already suggested a team
which, while it may not even finish
in the first division, has the appear
ance of being one which can be de-
veloped into a real baseball team.
The old punch is not there, there can
be no disguise Of that face, in the
games which were played with the
st. Louis Browns this week that this
fact was self evident. But this is
not to be wondered at. Rob any
team of more than half its stars and
the punch is likely to be missing for
some time to come, regardless of how
able the men may be who succeed to
che vacant places, for their worth
must always remain to be proved to
fans and fellow players alike.
