Finger Nails.

If every growing girl could realize how
very important it is that her finger nails
be always pink and polished, nicely
shaped and smooth and all the other
desirable things, then she will never
lose the beauty of her finger tips no
matter how old she lives to be. For
young nails stay young long after
nothing much can be done to the face
or the hair.
A thorough manicure is not vanity,
it is a treatment of real value to the
health as well as the beauty of the
nails. Cream is rubbed into the cuticle
during q manicure that feeds the nails
and keeps them from getting dry and
from cracking. And the nails are pol
ished in the d-fashiened manicure,
which brings the blood down to them,
stimulating them, as brushing the hair
stimulates it. and smooths down rough
lines and ridges. My chief objection to
enamels and all polishes that are
painted on Is this-the nails are never
rubbed with a buffer and they miss this
stimulation.
So much can be done to improve the
apparent shape of the hands by the

Everyday Law Cases
viii Failure to Glue Notice OF
Injury Prevent Recovery Under
Compensation Act?
By THE COUNSELLOR.

An injured employee filed his claim
under the workmen's compensation act
three months after he had been in
jured. At the hearing the employer
objected to the payment of the claim,
stating that he had had no notice of
the injury until the claim had been
filed.
Under the provisions of the compen-
sation act, notice of any injury had
to be given to the employer or his rep
resentatives within 80 days after the
injury. The employe admitted his fall
ure to give notice, but contended that
the rule was too harsh and should not
be applied to prevent his recovery OF
the money due him.
The commission refused to allow the
compensation, and, on appeal the de-
cision was upheld, the court stating:
1T appears. without dispute, that no
notice was given the employer until
three months after the accident. and
there is no evidence that the employer
or his representative had any knowl-
edge of it. Under these circumstances.
the claim cannot be allowed, unless the
employe has a valid excuse for not CIV
ing the required notice. As we find no
such excuse. the claim cannot be al
lowed.

sTACC QUITS TRACK DUTIES
 AT CHICAGO

CHICAGO, Jan. 5,-"The grand old man ol Big Ten athletics" Alonzo Amos Stagg, of the Uni versity of Chicago, has retired as track coach.
 Finding his duties as athletic director and football coach bearing heavily upon him and requiring all his time, Stagg has turned the track coaching task over to his protege, Ned Merriam, one of the greatest runners ever to burn mp a cinder track for the Maroons. The change is effective immediate ly.
 Stagg coached his first Chicago track team in 1896, and in point of service is the oldest active col lege track coach in America. His teams won the Big Ten outdoor title four times and the indoor championship three times. For more than a quarter of century he has been a leader in the move ment to promote amateur track competition.
 Merriam competed on Chicago's team from 1906 to 1908, willing the conference 440-yard run all three years and the 220-yard low hurdles in 1907 and 1908. He has been Coach Stagg's assistant dur ing the past year.

 Although a rodent, the beaver became sacred in the eyes of per sons interested in the preserva- tion of wild life. Thus it null tiplied beyond all expectations, and his kind have become so numerous again that the protec- tion of game regulations is waiv- ed occasionally so property can be protected against destructive teeth.

COAST GUARD SELLS
 COAL BURNING CUTTER

The sale of the Coast Guard, cut ter Morrill, to Antonio Domenieo, of New York for $7,100, demon- strates one way the Service has of dispensing with cutters of the ccal burning type. The Merrill had an iron hull, was built in Will mington, Del, in 1889, was station- ed at Boston, Mass, and before her sale was rated as a second class cruising cutter.
 The Coast Guard vessels Colfax and Pickering, which constituted part of Section Base Two at Sta- ten Island, New York, have been sold to the New York Firm of Kenny & Co. The Government collected $551 for the Colfax, and $951 for the Pickering. Both ves- sels had concrete hulls and were known in the Coast Guard as float ing bases. The Colfax was built in Wilmington. N. C., in 1921. and the Pickering in New Bern, N C., in 1920.

FORMER JUNEAU
 MAN NOW SOUGHT

Terry Brennan, who in 1902 or 1903 operated the Peerless Con- cert Hall in Jun eau, is being sought by Al c. Panzer, 3S25 Lyon Avenue, Oakland, Cal.
 In letter received by Chief of Police George w. Getchell, Panzer stated that Brennan was in good financial circumstances, had lived in Juneau for number of years and was believed to have been here until 1902 or later. His inter- est in locating Terry Brennan was aroused by a desire for any in formation relative to Brennans son, Torrance Brennan, who is a cousin of PanZer, and who is known to have come to Juneau to live with his father about twenty five years ago.
 Any information, no matter how vague, will be gratefully received by Panzer, the letter stated.

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-Out De- troit way they are showing deter- imitation to get back some of the strength of the club lost in shift ing Lu Blue and Heinie Manush to the Browns for what turned out to be a consignment of three ordi- nary ball players.
 Since taking over the Tiger managerial duties in November, Bucky Harris has made three ma jor deals that have given his club . the jump on all major league teams, with the exception of Cleve- land.
 The ink wasn't dry on Harris own contract with the Tigers be- fore he had spent S75,000 for Roy Johnson, San Francisco slugger, who hit .350 in the Pacific Coast last season. Then the former Washington manager drew on the account of the Tigers owners for $100,000 the price of First Base man Dale Alexander and Pitcher John Prudhomme, two Internation- al League stars.
 Alexander and Prudhomme came from Toronto and cost the Tigers, in addition to the cash, three ball players. The week following this deal, Harris swapped two men for one in a trade with Cleveland. He sent Shortstop Jackie Tavener and Pitcher Kenneth Halloway to the Indians for Pitcher George Err nest Uhle who had been sought by several clubs.
 There will be another deal or two bringing additional strength to the Tigers, Detroit reports say. Consequently, the club which once rode at the top of the heap, with such greats as Ty Ccb5 and Sam Crawford showing the way, prom ises to become first division fix ture in 1929

Only the, little gods who guide
the destinies Of all born troupers
know the exact limits of malignant
disaster which may be visited upon
a company one member of which
so far forgets himself as TO whistle

the dressing rooms. And today
whistling on morion picture set is
Just as taboo.

the days of silent pictures, when
they couldn't even get their regis

chorus girls always have brought
luck to the legitimate stage. Where

are pretty sure nf their $3.50 a
