Umpire in the American League.

n 7 EARLY everybody knows how
M to umpire a ball game. They

lot TO know about umpiring. II
you boys do it right it will put speed
and pep in your game. g.
The first thing--and the last thing
I'm going to tell you about umpiring
is TO read the rules over and over, and
be sure chat you understand them.
Ask some older fellow TO interpret for
you any rules that yoOu don't exactly
understand
An umpire IBust be unselflsh. He
isn't going to get much glory out of
the game, but he'll get a lot of per.
sonal satisfaction If he c:s.eS his work
right. Good umpircs are mighty
scarce,
The umpire must keep cool and bc
able to make allowances for the play
er who is quick of temper. and per.
haps sharp OF tongue. The umpire
must be keen of eye, but perhaps
should be a little bit hard of hearing
and then he won't hear all that In said
about him.
I'd Hike every player to umpire a
few games so he would better under.
stand the difficulties under which we
work. IL Is mighty hard to please two
persons who are after the same thing.

Tomorrow I'll continue my talk on

CHICAGO NOT SURE
OF SERVICE CLASH

BALTIMORE. April a3.--Chances
OF Baltimore obtaining the Autumn
Army.Navy foot ball game appeared
brighter after word from Supt. Louis
McC. Mutton of the Naval Academy
that no contract has been drawn tc
play the contest in Chicago.
This statement. coupled with dis
patches from the Illinois city that Sol
diers' Field there is likely to be un.
finished for the combat, has given rise
to new hope here.
After battling Chicago for the honor
of playing host for the service tilt
Baltimore lost out in January. when
officials of the colleges declared the
Midwest had clinched the game.
Supt. Mutton is unwilling to discuss
the Chicago dispatches describing liti-
cation over bond issues for completion
of Soldiers Field, but is known to
favor Baltimore for the game if a
change becomes necessary.

Sure Way to Get Rid Of Dandruf

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruf completely
F.. and that is to dissolve it. Then you
destroy il entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, ordi-
nary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with
the finger tips. By morning, most,
if not all. of your dandruff will be
gone, and two or three more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging OF the scalp will stop
instantly, and your hair will be
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better
