Heretofore it has been found inn
possible to accommodate many hun
dredS wishing to be assured in ad-
vance of vantage points for week end
contests, owing to the box seats res
ervations covering the entire season
already in effect.
Some LOO grandstand seats Will
be added TO the approximately 1900
reserved box seats under the new rule.
A charge of Sl.25 will be made for
each seat in the additional reserved
space.
Another change in accommodation
to be put into effect will be the con-
version of the far end of the left
field structure from pavilian to grand
stand status. The work of tearing
out the benches now there and the
installation of individual seats in their
stead will be started Immediately. This
alteration, it is estimated, will involve
the loss of about 500 in total seating
capacity, but, according TO the man
agement, Will better meet the require

What TomorrowMeans to You
BY MARY BLAKE.

ARIES.
Tomorrow's planetary aspect shows
marked Improvement over those of
today, and in the afternoon and
evening are quite benign. They do
not, in the early part of the day, in
dicate any urge to attempt big things,
but they do denote an air of calm
and an absence of any emotions that
tend to create antagonism or dis
satisfaction. 1t is. therefore, an au
spicious occasion for continuing the
new efforts made on the preceding
day. In the afternoon, there is little
stimulus for enterprise, but there IS
an atmosphere of restfulness and
freedom from worry. The vibrations
will react very favorably on emo
tions; and love. If declared, will un-
doubtedly find an affectionate re-
sponse, and the vows of marriage,
If taken today, show every promise
Of being kept.
The life that begins tomorrow will
be blessed with normal health. and
the few minor illnesses that threaten
1t will be only ''rippes on the
water" None of them will be waves
that ingulf The character developed
Will be generous and considerable, the
disposition will be cheerful and the
inclination both studious and am
plllouS. IL SnOul0, gwen wholesome
environment in its early days, achieve
a considerable degree of success. but
is liable to experience a love disap-
pointment that will embitter for
some long time its existence 1t will
make many friends, as a result of
sincerity of character and loyalty
of disposition.
Those whose birthday is celebrated
on March &c. are, although funda-
mentally sound. rather frivolous, and
too disposed to treat the serious af-
fairs of life with an undue degree
of levity. 1t is just as harmful to
magnify troubles as 1t is to minim-
iZe them. A proper sense of proper
tion is missing in this makeup"
and. as their intellectual vision Is
subject to astigmatism, they are not
as successful as their capabilities
would, under other and better con-
ditionS, justify. Those of tomorrow 8
children who are women should mar
ry, in order to be able to rely on
the judgment of their mates. Those
of them who are men will be more
successful in subordinate positions
than If they attempt to paddle their
own canoes. Both men and women
will thereby be able to avoid the
consequences of their lack of good
judgment.

Ninth Day.

PANAMA CITY, February 3.-Give
me the tropics!
They At my indolent nature so well.
1 could sit here on the veranda of
the Union Club overlooking Panama
Bay and listen to the cowbirds cav
and watch the buzzards sail until /
turned rusty and crumbled away like
the sleepy old Spanish churches and
buildings that huddle along the glis-
tening water This is the land of the
Manana--and it is with effort that
reach for the tall-stemmed glass of
Rhin Chill, the temperance drink of
South America.
Panama City is the oldest town on
the Pacific-and looks 1t. 1t was the
first permanent settlement in the new
world-the Wayside Inn along ma
ture's crossroad where passed so
many gallant souls of old and where
now passes the commerce. of the
world. 1t is delightfully."- picturesque.
A bit of old Spain-rusty and moldy
with age and romance.
Along this way passed a wondrous
crowd. 1t was the golden highway.
Here trekked the intrepid troop Of
Pizarro on their way to rob the Inca
sun temples of their glittering orna-
ments. and here trod the stampede
of Forty Miners" on their way to
the FL Dorado of California
We usually think of Forty-Niners
in covered wagons crossing the plains
OF the west and little realize that in
the early days of the gold rush there
were twice as many to make the jour
ney by way of the Isthmus. In fact
the song hit of those golden days ran
something like this:
I'm going TO California,
The gold dust for To see:
i jumped aboard the Liza ship
And Travelled on the sea,
And every time / thought Of sea
wished il wasn't me.
I am surprised that more people do
not visit Panama. 1t Is perpetual sum-
mer here and the climate varies but
little. The highest temperature ever
recorded was 9S degrees Fahrenheit
and the lowest was SO.
1t is as healthy as any spot in the
United States-thanks to Uncle Sam,
who cleaned the place up ong ago.
And the ride through the canal is one
