Miller Huggins says that
Hinky Haines will be given an
other trial with the Yankees,
though the former Penn State
football star has not come tlp
to expectations this season.
Haines Is one Of the best de-
fensive outfielders recently de-
veloped. His throwing Is not
of the best. His hitting has
been a disappointment.
Higgins has tried 10 change
his style, but without much stIc-
cess. Higgins then told him to
90 ahead and bat as he batted
in the international League.
when he hit .316 with Reading.
Haines has been given many
q chance TO prove his worth;
but fell down after amazing the
opposing team with his playing
in the Outfield and his speed
on the base paths; where Huge
gins says he is 3 faster man
than Frank Frisch.

FIND YOUR HOBBY

Are you growing stale? Has your business, whether it be
running a home, teaching fifty or sixty pupils a day, or pound
ing a typewriter become monotonous? Does it all seem unin-
teresting and not worth while?
If it does the trouble is you are growing stale. Don't be
too discouraged about it. Everyone passes through those
stages at times. Often it is the best workers who grow stale.
That is easily explained. Such workers have put all their
interest, thought and time into their work. One can't eat the
same kind of food incessantly and not become tired OF 1t.
Neither can one put all ones thought, time and interest into
ene's work and not become stale and fed up on 1t.
But what shall you do about it? Find an ,antidote IN the
form of an entire change of interest outside OF working hours.
ultivate a hobby. One can't prescribe for another person
what that hobby shall be. That is determined by ones per-
sonal interests and tastes. But for every one it must have TWO
essentials; it must be interesting and entirely different from
ones routine work.
If one reads the lives of successful men and women one
will find that there isn't a one but what has a hobby. l won
der if much of their success is not due to their hobby. 1t has
kept them fresh, broad, interested and interesting.
There is a hobby for everyone. Get busy and md yours.

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Now
that your winter gas bills r COM

ton TO your cooking range.
It is there that you can save rom

Miss Minna c.. Denton Of the Blu

experimental with four kinds of gas
stoves, seven ovens and varying gas
pressures until she developed ten
rules for the most economic use Of
the cooking fuel.
Follow them, says Miss Denton,
and you will be surprised at the re-
duction in your gas bill next month.
Use of Burners
Here they are:
Use the right burner. The big
gest burner on your stove uses 90
per cent more gas than the others,
and four or five times as much as
the simmer burner. Use the big
burner for a dish with very large
bottom only. Use the simmer burner
the smallest, to keep things boiling
once they're started on the bigger
jets.
2-Turn the burner down wher
| the things have started to cook.
3-Keep the burners clean and the

ANOTHER BUSY SESSION

To this man we owe the fact that
American china holds its " with
any china produced throughout the
world today. So the American wo-
men who want the choicest china
possible to procure, will find it in
her own country. American Belleck
ware is equal to the finest china
found in Europe. 1t Is the culmina-
ton of William Scott Lenox's life
work. The forms are classical and
beautiful and the lustre, ivory glaze,
Is unsurpassed as a foundation for
decorative enamel work. The fam
Gus Ming pattern is made on this
china.
Dear to every housewife is her
table decorations. AS a bride her
thoughts dwell upon the finest of
linens, embellished with the most
exquisite embroideries. glittering sill
yer and glass and of course, her
china. There are so many ways OF
putting personality into the setting
of the table that each n has her
own individuality. Today there Is
a re strent and simplicity recogniz-
ed as marks of refinement in the
preparation of a meal, which Is in
direct contrast to the table of the
past, overloaded with a variety. of
food, which was an exaggerated ex-
preston of old Saxon hospitality.
Beauty is found ,in quality rather
than quantity.
Flowers, of course, play an i'm
portant part in table decoration. The
c~enterpiece should be rather low
than tall so that conversation may
be carried on without persons who
are sitting opposite playing hide
and seek.
The shops are so full of lovely OBJ
jects for the table that one need not
have a prosaic table. There can be
variety without over-stepping the
bounds of good taste.
Mrs. NJ. S. Danenhower contribut-
ed delightfully."- to the program with
a reading, early Spring on the
Living Porch" and Miss Kimbal
gave the concluding paper on AR
rangement and Decorative Use Of
Flowers" A general discussion fol-
lowed and several beautiful examples
of china we're shown. A social hour
during which refreshments were
served, brought the evening to
close. At the short business session
plans for the exhibit of the depart
ment and lecture to be given by Mrs,
C. Osborne, May 28th, were com
pleted.

YOUR BABY AND MINE
Rickets
By NYRILg MEYER ELDRED

ricketts,
Ricketts, is a disease found in q
large percentage of children over n
year of age. 1t is rarer under six
months, found more often in the city
than in the country. in colored
than white babies and in dark skin
ned races than in lighter ones.
Nursing babies have it as well as
bottle babies and it is more prevalent
in the late spring than at any other
season.
The cause of it is a lack in the
diet of certain food elements, promi-
nent among which is fat soluble A,
one OF the three vitamines.
In rachitic children the bones are
deficient In calcium and phosphorus
so that they are soft and bend and
break easily.
Children suffering with ricketts,
show marked signs.
Early in the disease there is
sweating, anemia, retarded dentition
and development generally. Later
