FEaisr for own Players
Rice, Johnson. Harris, Judge and
Bluege all stand out as heroes. On
our side we started in the series with
Il miNed-up batting order, but our
reserve strength was strong enough
TO meet the issue. Young players like
Lindstrom and Kelly made records
for themselves that will last. The
work Of Gowdy and F'risch also
stands out.
Frankly, though, / must say that
our club was never going at it's full
pace Despite his marvellous work,
Frisch's injured finger bothered him.
The Nationals did not have the re-
serve strength that we showed, and
they deserve all the more credit for
the way they fought their way
through. Manager Harris led his club
with skill and good Judgment He
also set them An example by the way
he hit the ball and fielded his posi-
ton. Harris was responsible for more
or the Washington runs than any
other ma on the club. He also stop

Giants Get Bad Break.
The Giants sot the worst Of
break in the luck in the eighth in
ming, which changed the whole tide
of the game With the bases full and
two out, Harris hit what should have
been an easy bounder to Lindstrom,
who was all set for it. The ball took
a false bound and skipped right over
his head, scoring the two runs that
sent US into extra innings
Johnson's feat in striking out Kelly
while Frisch was on third with only
one out was another big point in
the game. johnson had wisely
walked Young, a dangerous left
handed hitter. He did the same thing
in the eleventh and got Kelly again
The hardest bit Of luck in the whole
game, though, was when Gowdy,
tripping on his own mask that he had
just thrown off, failed to- catch Ruefs
pop foul right near the plate. Ruel,
with this new lease of life, then made
the hit that started Washington to
victory.

White Shoes For Wear During
 Summer
By JANET wINSLOw

2 $ WT7ITH the new type of sports
 clothes made of rich silks and
 more or less e1aborately de- signed, a new type of footwear has come along which sin keeping with the politely sporty air of these costumes.
 Kid leather, one of the softest and most satisfactory of foot coverings, has been made into shoes which have as much clear cut Individuality as the artistic sport clothes which they are designed toAaccompany. to
 For one thing, they Are made with heels suitable for wear with the so- called classy sports outfit. The heels are of a medium height, about an inch and half, practical for walk ing and slightly shaped for style, a de iiehtful combination of comfort and grace. Low heeled shoes break the sweeping line from toe to ankle 1; French heels appear inconsistent with the air of careless comfort that is one of the charms of sports clothes. The medium heel, once so difficult to find in the world of shoes, is now the rule rather than the exception.
 This season is undoubtedly white season, sO it is not at all surprising that white shoes are to be sought after, talked about and worn more than any other kind. While variety has not been overlooked in the dazzling dis play of white footwear, there are cer- tain salient features that make last seasons shoes look very much like well last. seasons shoes
 The newest and smartest shoes have eliminated cut-outS work at the sides .1< &- Aln forated designs are seen, they are grouped at the center front. They are used as buckle would be used. Then too, shoes cover more of the instep than they did last year. One wide strap that comes up we'll over the in- step is particularly good. according to the present Jennings of the mode.
 White kid and suede shoes of semi sports type have two straps buckled over the instep with dull silver buck les. The popular sandal having sin- gle strap which meets tab that runs straight up the center of the instep is also represented in the array of sum mer shoes. Pretty, slim feet never look prettier than when they are shod in dainty sandals. It would indeed be tragic if the girls who know this were to look in vain for their favorite shoes. It is satisfying to note that they have not gone out entirely. ] Flesh or nude colored stockings with white kid shoes! This combination is being worn a great deal at, French re- sorts and is going to have something of cogue here, they uo say. You can imagine how smart the combina- tion would look with an all white cos tune or with an outfit of a single striking color. But when ones cos tune combines two or three shades. as many of the summer things are won't to do when they are not all white, heavy white silk stockings worn with white shoes give more finished sleek appearance. sr

Consult Teacher About Studies
 For Child
By EMILE HOFFMAN

HUH SCHOOlI freSnman was "A preparing her home work the
 other day when two friends called upon the mother. Suddenly the girl exclaimed, "Oh, mother, here's a card for you to sign" The mother took the card, but continued her conversation with her friends.
 The young miss interrupted with. ''Mother please sign that card right away so I can put it in my book where I'll not forget to hand it in tomOr row." The cautious mother replied, T want to read it over before I sign it." But the girl impatiently retored, "Oh, it's nothing I'll fill it in after you sign it
 To the surprise and extreme discOm- fort of the daughter the mother gave her attention to the card, and the dis cussion which followed disclosed. the fact that the girl had no chance for passing the examinations. She thor oughly "hated" algebra and Latin. She had been informed she could escape one or both these subjects by changing her course of study and this permit was the card to which she desired the parental signature.
 The callers were college graduates and they endeavored to show the girl the folly of her intended action, but she was Obdurate. The mother was helpless and there is no doubt that the determined daughter took the signed card to school next day.
 This was a matter for the mother to take up with the teacher. A 14-year- old girl is not capable of deciding her studies and when parents feel incom- petent to do this the teacher should be consulted.
 In this instance the father had a col lege education in view for his daughter. The callers tried to impress upon the mother and young student that both these subjects were essential to col lege entrance. The discouraged girl could not be impressed and the indul- gent mother allowed her sympathy to Overrule her good judgment. The father was not consulted.
 This mother does not realize that her signature will change her child's future and probably means disap- pOintment to all the family
 Parents who do not understand should consult the teacher and follow the ad- vice of the instructor in deciding the high school students course of study.

We Women
The Very Ideal

M ADAME NANO, wife of the Rou. W manian diplomat at Washing
 ton, D. O., should study her husbands profession. She appears not only to- be guilty of inaccuracy, but also to be lacking in. tact. I refer to statements recently made by her in which she said:
 T should never think of employing a woman doctor or woman lawyer. Somehow cannot bring myself to imag- inc woman really becoming efficient in either profession. I fear none of my sex could convince me she was a mis- tress of either law or medicine. If had woman doctor when i'll l. should feel certain l were going to die.'
 Those are unkind words to be hurled at us by the wife of a diplomat! I should somehow have expected some thing different.
 The actual history of work done by women doctors during the war contra diets the Roumanian lady's opinions. Dr. Gerard Magni, French woman, was an expert with tuberculosis. Dr. Alice Hutchinson held the record of the lowest percentage of mortality. Three American women, Dr. Caroline Finley, Dr. Lee Edward and Dr. Anna Sholly were among the first to receive the Croix de Guerre. The organizat tiOn of British women in charge of Dr. Elsie Ingels established twelve hospitals on

PASTEL BROCK OF CHIFFON

Gowns of chiffon for evening wear are wonderfully simple this season and depend upon their exquisite coloring for their charm. A lovely one seen re- gently was of sky blue chiffon, with a twisted sash of delicate green and mauve that tied in the front and had long floating ends that hung to the end of the skirt.

There are many reasons why this should be the case. Nature does not play favorites nearly so much as we ac- cuse her of doing, and when she is par ticularly lavish on the gifts she be- slows on the outside of a womans head she is mighty apt to scrimp on the in- side furnishing.
 Many golden tress grows on dome of solid ivory. Many a Cupid's bow mouth utters only stupidities. Many a mean and sordid soul looks out of a b. lutiful eye.
 Furthermore, the beauty is nearly al- ways self-centered, interested only in herself and convinced that the world exists only for her pleasure, and that she has a divine commission to the best of everything

 the chorus, and also, of course, beauty does secure girl lots of attention from men.
 But it is notorious that beauties seldom make good matches. All of us know many old maids whose good looks made them the toast of =:fheir day. Men are content to worship beauty abstractly, without showing any signs of wanting to possess it for their own pleasure.
 Look about you and you will see that the girls who make the best matches are never the best looking. You will also observe that the cher ished wives are not those. who. would receive even honorable men, tionr in a beauty contest. Nor are beauties often popular with either sex.

Certainly, in business, beauty is a hindrance instead of a help. A woman must be good looking to get and hold good job-that is, she must be pleas ant looking. But no man would dare hire living picture for his secretary, nor, except as mannequins, are beauties at a premium in trade. Men flirt with the beauty instead of buying from her, and fellow employees hang over her desk and waste their time and hers. Also beauty does not inspire confidence in the financial ability of it's possessor.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-06-30

Women will also call attention to the fact that the beauty has everything presented to her on a silver salver. At home she gets the best clothes because the living picture has to have suit able frame. She is spared from the hard work because her lily-white hands must not be roughened and hardened by labor. She is mothers. and father pride and joy, and is spoiled and pam pereds while homely little Cinderella does the kitchen work and wears the cast-off clothes.
 Abroad the pretty girl gets all the cakes and ale. Hostesses like to have her ornament their parties. Men enjoy being seen out with woman who makes everybody rubber. She never has to stand in a crowded street car and DOT ters and bellhops fly to her bidding. So it is no wonder that women consider beauty their one best bet and say to their fairy godmothers, Give me a peaches-and-cream complexion, and a willowy figure, and cOw-like eyes, and I will get the balance for myself"
 But is beauty, after all, as much of an asset as women think it is? The kind of good looks that makes q woman easy on the eyes and which is merely a matter of good grooming, tasteful dress ing and an intelligent and pleasant ex- precision is, of course, invaluable. A woman must have that, or else have tremendous force and genius, to make any sort of success in life. But that sort of good looks is far away from real beauty.
