A hostess told me once that she al
most invariably judged the good or
bad bringing up Of her guests by the
condition in which they left the bath

on the towels: the bath tub or wash
bowl not scrubbed out after being
used. but left with a grimy sediment
adhertng to the sides; towels used SO
untidiiy that the imprint of dirty
fingers remains on them, and these
towels not folded carefully over the

corner. leaving shapelesS hodge

The most immaculate, spotless care
sh hould be taken of every piece of

be rinsed after being used and the

ly. Towels should be used only to
dry the face and hands. not to clean
them, and they should be refolded in
the original folds and hung with the

should be thoroughly scrubbed out

many guest in a small house. To
obviate this, place a bath spray over
the faucet and let the tube lie on the
bottom of the tub. The tub will then

AMERICANS EAGER TO
WIN MARATHON Event
Long, Distance Runners Deter
mined to Capture Race.
Local Athletes MOI Willing to Admit
They Have less Stamina Than
Firms, ~Esthonians, Swedes,
Italians and Others.

There is a growing determination on
the part of long-distance American run
ners II win the next marathon event In
the Olympic games at Paris In 1924.
Americans are not prepared to admit
that they have less stamina than Firms,
Esthonians, Swedes, Italians and 9TH
ers who have been doing so well at the
long-distance game.
1t has been pointed out, however,
that marathon running has not been en-
couraged in this country in recent
years, as it has in the past. Not only
are there not enough races at the full
distance and at properly graduated dis
tances, but these races are not properly
placed on the years program so as to
insure giving every aspirant a chance
under careful supervision.
Another matter that has troubled
those who even now are ready to pre-
pare for the Paris event Is the fact
that It present the American long-dis-
lance races are not restricted to bona
fide American citizens. 1t Is of no help

important American marathons won by
foreigners, who will be unable to repre-
sent this country in the Olympic games.
There is a definite movement under
q therefore, to limit these races to
American citizens.
In the last Olympic American u
ners were compelled to compete against
foreigners who had already defeated
them in races on this side of the water.
The effect of this on the morale of the
runners Is unmistakable. They might
have had more confidence in their own
ability had they been meeting strange
runners only, no matter how good. AS
it was, the Americans made an envia-
Bile record, and had the. event been a
team affair there would have been a
great deal more credit coming to this
country.
Marathon running In this country is
almost exclusively a poor mans game.
Men who work in industrial plants dur
ing the day get out and put In an
amount of work at night. They like
to run in important races, in a lot of
them, and to win first-class prizes. They
like to feel that those who are charged
with building up an American Olympic
team are watching them closely and
are keenly interested in their work.

MILLER TO MANAGE DECATUR
Former st. Louis Cardinal outfielder
Will Pilot Team in Three-l
League Circuit. .

1t is announced that Charley Miller,
former outfielder with the st. Louis
Cardinal and the Houston Bluffs and
who managed Corsicana last season,
has been signed as manager of the
Decatur Three-I team to succeed Dan
O'Leary. The naming of Miller leads
to the supposition that Decatur forms
an alliance with the st. Louis Ma
tional league club since the Cardinals
are in control of Houston from which
Miller is obtained. That increases
the list of Cardinal farms to five
Syracuse, Houston, Decatur, Fort
Smith and Corsicana-one in each
class in the minors.
