PLAY BALL!

The great national game, as we are pleased to term it, has started its annual pilgrimage to the hearts Of all true Americans: at least, that is W hat the league magnatcs hope is taking place. In spite of the wide spread interest in other species Of the outdoor life when more people annually prefer to take part i'll some sort of sport instead of being an on- locker only, the national game holds it's own, especially when the league races are the real thing and not runaWays by the teams whose owners have the most finances with which 10 buy playing talent.
 The national game i'll America. commorcialized into show that lasts lalt the year, cNcrts it's appeal because it possesses the attributes of the go-aud gct-sm spirit hat is sup posed 10 be ono Of the foundation little difference 10 the onlookcrs whether the hero in the outtield gets as fancy a salary as the president of the United States. or whether the main consideration from the mogul's standpoint is not the league standing but the standing Of the dollars at the box office. We want our sport when and how we want it and are willing to pay some professionals 10 furnish it.
 This system is no different from other lines Of cndcavor. The snobbsh individual who will snort dcrisivcly that baseball is merely commercial ized spor. possibly ovcrlooks the fact that virtually every thing else is tingcd with commcrcialism in some form. He goes 10 the thcatcr, either the legitimate or the flicker palaces, and finds upon inquiry that the players arc not in it for arts sake alone but that they expect art to make a substantial monetary return. He attends q concert given by some fiddler of the first rank and dis | covers the great artist charges an amazingly high fee. He looks at fine picture and is rcgalcd with the information that the artist shook down a fortune when he painted it. He notes that boxers seem to box best when a fat purse is in sight: that even amateurs in the sports have a way of paying their way and putting a bit by for their amateurish- ness.
 The main consideration is. what do the professional sport providers give us for the money they make? In baseball they seem to give general satisfa ction; if they don't the way to force them is ridieulously easy and ! the crowds know how to make their wishes felt in ,lnmistakable fashion 1 by remaining away from the ball 1 parks. Whenever this occurs there is
 more sadness than customary in tho
 world, and the moguls break their
 backs in trying to make good-and
 also make both ends meet

THE EASTER-EGG INDUSTRY

By Dr. Walter E. Traprock
 Within the last year I have de- veloped a small plant on my estate near Washington, D. C. to turn out Easter-eggs on a large scale. The old method of hand-colorlng or dye-ing is practically obsolete. A few experimenters attempted to produce colored cggs, direct from the hen, by feeding aniline dyes to the poor creatures. In almost every case, while the hen some- times was able to lay brilliantly colored egg, the operation was fatal to the hen herself. Efforts in this direction came practically to a standstill. But I am not one to be easily discouraged.
 Continuing my experiments with an extremely hardy strain of Tas- ' manian mud hens. birds which have been known 10 lay eggs by twos and threes attached by milky fila , ment like beads or flexible dum- bells, I fed them with vegetable dyes derived from food products which they could easily assimilate. Beat juice, for instance, produces eggs ot an exquisite shcll-pink. Riucbcrry juice gives me deep blue eggs enter l ing naturally into the lime-forma' 1 ton of the shell. The use of elder berries results in gorgeous crimson I Of course there are innumerablt combinations. producing every colol of the rainbow.
 Perfect hen-health demands cer tain chemicals. Among other thing 3 small amount of powdered sulphur is very beneficial. By gradually ill
 creasing the allotment in the foo'
 of these hardy fowl l have gottel
 some magnificent eggs that wer
 brightly luminous from the phos
 phorus in the sulphur. Not on}
 they are superbly beautiful, bu
 they are so easily found in tho dark 1 A fascinating phase of my work

Of . well-brought-up girl of the old

and braves the dangers OF a great
city to save the life Of her brother
who has fallen into the hands of
crooks and is sentenced to death.
The picture is playing at the Capitol
Friday and Saturday.
Exciting and swift as mad horses
II the action of the melodrama
which whirls the girl. now known
"Molly, the Gal from Chi" from
y danger to another. until at last
she accomplishes the task she has
come to do.
Myrna 10y gives the greatest
performance Of her career, because
She has the first part worthy Of her
talents. Conrad Nagel, always force
ful and pleasing, triumphs as the
dapper detective who Is supposed by
Nolly to be another Of the crooks.
William Russell gives a character
