SpflIerites Experiment
 The Crackers will attempt to experiment with Nano in an ef- fort to give the club added hit ting strength. The Indian has never played third base in his life, but Manager Rariden will att tempt to use him there. He has a tendency to crack the agate in the pinch, and that's what Atlanta needs. Rariden figures that he has had infield experience at first, and that this experience should make him eligible to play the last turn in the track. The Indian. glad enough to get back In the innerworks, is willing enough to become a victim of the experi- ment. The signing of Wano gives the Crackers a couple of redskins, and Josephus Guyon and Wano should have great times buddying together. and at tempting to scalp pale-face pitch CTS,
 It Is rather like getting back home for Freddie Graff, to play third for team managed by Kid Elberfeld. Freddie was in his prime in the old days while the Kid was pilot at Chattanooga, and he explained the Lookouts for the Kid. They worked in harmony then, and Freddie should take on new life now that he Is with a man who doesn't believe in ball players aging until they

SYNOPSIS

CHAPTER with his grandfather,
small Ramsey Milholland is watching the
Decoration Day Parade in the home
town. The old gentleman, veteran of
the Civil war, endeavors to impress the
youngster with the significance of the
great conflict, and many years afterward
the boy was to remember his words with
startling vividness.
~s
CHAPTER lin the schoolroom, a
few years afterward, Ramsey was not
distinguished for remarkable ability,
though his two pronounced dislikes were
arithmetic and "Recitations." In sharp
contrast to Ramseys backwardness is
the precocity of little Dora Yocum, a
young lady whom in his bitterness he de-
dominates Teachers Pet

sufferab1y adult-she was laughing at
him as a grown person laughs at a
child. Conspicuously and unmistaka-
bly,, there was something indulgent In
her amusement. He choked. He
didn't care for George Washington. or
Paul Revere, or the teacher, or the
President of the United States, or
Shakespeare, or any of 'em. They
could all 60 to the dickens with Dora
Yocum. They were all a lot of smart
les anyway and he hated the whole
stew of 'em
There was one, however, whom he
somehow couldn't manage to hate,
even though this one officially seemed
to be as intimately associated with
Dora Yocum and superiority as the
Abraham Lincoln, even when Dora
was chosen to deliver the Gettysburg
Address," on the twelfth Of February.
Lincoln had said Government of the
people, by the people, for the people, .
and that didn't mean government by
the teacher and the Teachers Pet and
Paul Revere and Shakespeare and
suchlike; it meant government by
everybody, and therefore Ramsey had
as much to do with it as anybody else
had. Beyond a doubt, Dora and the
teacher thought Lincoln belonged to
them and their crowd of exclusives !;
they seemed to think they owned the
whole United States; but Ramsey was
sure they were mistaken about Abra-
ham Lincoln.
He felt that 1t was just like this lit
tie Yocum snippet to assume such a
thing, and it made him sicker than
ever to look at her.
Then, one day, he noticed that her
eye-winkers were stickin' out farther
and farther.
His discovery irritated him the
more. Next thing, this ole Teachers
Pet would do she'd get to thinkin' she
nobody could stand her! The long
lashes made her eyes shadowy, and it
was a fact that her shoulder blades
ceased to insist upon notOriety; you
couldn't tell where they were at all,
any more.
A contemplate thing happened.
Wesley Bender was well known to be
the most untitdy boy In the class, and
had never shown any remorse for his
reputation or made the slightest effort
either to improve or to dispute it. He
was content: it failed to lower his
standing with his fellows or to i'm
press them unfavorably. In fact, he
was treated as one who has attained
a slight distinction. 1t helped him to
become better known, and boys liked
to be seen with him. But one day,
there was a Encouragement of the
seating In the schoolroom: Wesley
Bender was given a desk next in front
of Dora Yocum's; and within a week
the whole room knew that Wesley had
begun voluntarily to wash his neck
the back of it, anyhow.
This was at the bottom of the fight
between Ramsey Milholland and Wes-
ley Bender, and the diplomatic ex-
changes Immediately preceding HOSTILE
ties were charnGngly. frank and I'M
hypocritical, although quite as mixed
up and off-tke-issue- as if they had

WOMEN AT GENOA

The Genoa conference came few years, or less, too early for women, II is the fact that there Is not ono wom- an on any of the 34 delegations al- though there are prominent women leaders present and although the clerical forces are made mp mainly Of women. One of the most noted per sons at Genoa, however. is the grand- daughter Of the poet Rossetti and her ability to remember long addresses and 10 translate them at once into an other language without notes is q mental feat of which anyone, male or female, might well boast.
 Possibly it is fair, at the present time and considering the develop ment of the women of Europe along the lines of economies and politics, that they should have no hand in the decisions to be made at Genoa. Possibly the men arc better able to secure for men and women alike, as far as personal affairs are affected by the Genoa decisions. what will be most beneficial for them. But it is d fact that the interest of the women of Europe in the results Of the deci- sions made at Genoa is vital, as their welfare depends upon the conditions in their various countries. For ages men have been the natural protectors of women, but with the new light shed upon womans ability, women's possibilities, women's interests and welfare in this country, is it certain that the men delegates from Russia, from Germany and from the smaller nations of Europe will consider with broad vision how the women of their lands will be affected by their actions at Genoa? The women of the world are interested in the economic con ference only in a slightly less degree than they would be were it a confer- ence regarding peace and war.

PRACTICAL ARGIMENTs.

If you want to convince someone or something, anything, today practical arguments are necessary, not Sent- mental ones Never give as reason why another should do certain thing 'because il has been done always" or as a reason why a thing should not be appeal to woman's traditional inabll- ity to drive nail, for instance, in try ing to persuade her she can't get a job as a carpenter, any more than you would appeal to her traditional mod esty if you seek to have her refrain from indulging in certain styles. New things are in order and neither you nor anyone else can say that new things are not the better even though you and lot of pretty sensible people believe there are many of the old things now denounced as out-of date which, nevertheless, were prac- ticed for very good reasons.
 So if pretty chorus girl comes to you, as of course she is quite apt to do, and asks your advice about her conduct and habits and if you note immediately that she seems unable to make her eyes behave" and that you cannot be quite certain as to the color of her hair, naturally, or the nature of her complexion because it is hidden from public view by several layers of more or less attractive for eign substance. tell her that she will find 1t very hard to get work of any kind to do in dull times in the the atrical profession, if she continues to play with her eyes like that and to make experiments in art on her cheeks. Cite for her benefit what the San Francisco employment agent said about its being difficult to get positions for chorus girls because of the matters mentioned. There you will have a good practical reason why she should abandon her old habits. And be careful not to let sentiment creep in and make you forget all about such sound advice because of the very fact that she simply will not, even before you, make her eyes be- have.'

IMMIGRATION.

The adoption by the Senate of the joint resolution extending to June 1924, the provisions of the present immigration restriction law, does not indicate that. full satisfaction is felt with those provisions, but shows rather the general recognition of the fact that the restrictions on immigra- ton must be continued and that the present law comes about as near meeting the requirements as any that might be devised.
 Locally instances have been known which seemed to show some unfair ness in the provisions where, for in- stance. parents were not allowed to come in after children had been ad- mitted. Officials in setting straight the case of the parent separated in this way from a baby, made the re- mark that the government was not in the business of separating families; anu lttHIlltdlliltS dlt llOl ObStTNtu to that ridiculous extent. The law, ad- mitted to be imperfect, is about the hest scheme that has been devised and has already helped in situation which demands, for some time to come, that there shall be strict limits placed on the number of foreigners allowed to enter this country.
 In considering the immigration problem of the future, however. it is well to recall the remark of a man speaking in this city not long ago out of vast experience with immigra tion and an intimate personal knoWl- edge of the latent possibilities for i'm provement Of this country possessed by the immigrant. He believed that there will come a time when immi- grafton will be badly needed. In fusion of new blood, if good blood. is to be desired, But when that time comes the American workman will have so much to do that he will not mind the change. New Britain may well testify to the value of proper immigration

THE BOWERY ANGEL"

It has been said with truth that the day of the loose talking evangelist l who appeals to nothing but the emo- tion, who courts sensation to the ex- preciation of intelligence, is passing. But the day of the reformed doer of good, sensational though he or she may be because the regeneration of the person was sensational, will never pass
 Such an one died recently, "The Bowery Angel or Chinatown Gertie" was buried the other day Funeral services in her memory were held in a little chapel of a midnight mission of the Rescue society in the heart of Chinatown whence she was rescued, where she remained to rescue others. Emotion there had been in her life; emotion had been her bitter enemy; emotion had helped her turn passionately to the aid of others plung- ed deep in despair. Perhaps emotion in her case had brought practical re- generation; certainly something had brought it. The change in her life would have come just as surely through reason, tempered by sympa- thy and love. And it was through sympathy and understanding and love she did her great work.
 Often, often it is wrong to scoff at tales of sudden conversion. The memory of this woman and her work should wipe the sheer from the face of the cynic.
