WHY CAMP?

What can a summer camp do for your child?
 If he were otherwise doomed 10 spend the summer in the paved city streets. the answer is obvious enough. But if you are so fortunate as to live within walking distance of the woods. or if you own a summer refuge in some remote, secluded spot, where the children can ''live | like Indians it is not apparent that summer camp has anything unique to offer
 And yet it has. Summer out of doors with ones family is one thing, and probably a very delightful one. but summer out of doors in the ex- elusive society of playmates and equals Is quite another. What can camp do for your chil- dren that you are unable to do :? Many things. It can teach him to get along without you for a short period of time The harder this lesson. the more important it is for him te learn.
 It can give him opportunity to ac. quire in an environment which is a, once stimulating and safe all sort of physical skill for the learning oI which no home has resources ol equipment.

YOUR HEALTH
BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and Of Hy-

Medical Association and Of Hy-
 Teia. the Health Magazine.
 There is not. of course, any req son to believe that the blowing of any musical instrument will injure the lungs: in fact it is more reason- able to assume that such a perform ance will exercise the lungs and thereby make them more capable and more healthful. Some of the superstitions associated with the playing of musical instruments con- stitute in themselves remarkable mo- tions.
 Many people think that all violin players have long hair and there is hardly a bald headed violin vir- tuoso who does not spend at least i've per cent of his income on hair tonics trying to justify this superst- tion
 It is argued that all players of the base horn are obese. It is said not only the trombone but also the | cornet and particularly the oboe in- I terfere with the condition of the | lungs. Probably the statement about ! the trombone and the oboe arises from the fact that the former has great long tube and the latter the smallest outlet for the breath of any of the wind instruments and that heretofore strong efforts are requir- ed 10 blow either Of these musical devices.
 An orchestra leader who has had opportunity for many years 10 ob- serve musicians reports that he knowsno basis for either of these superstitions. Trombone and oboe players are just as healthy and live just as long as do players of any other type of musical instruments.
 There is no reason therefore to suppose that the playing of an oboe or trombone in any way injures health. Ii is not certain. Of course as to just how much practicing and playing on these instruments short en life. No doubt the statistics foi this point depend on the irrita bilit, and homicidal tendencies of tn.

MISS SC|DMORE'S
WRITINGS PRAISED
Value of Her Life Work Is
Recognized in Memorial
Service at Geneva.

Recognition of the international value
of work done by Miss Eliza r. Scidmore,
longtime resident of Washington, who
died November 3 in Switzerland, was
voiced by Maj. Gen. William CroZier,
u. S. A., retired at memorial services
held in her honor recently in Geneva.
Miss Scidmore, after lifetime featured
by extensive travel and residence
abroad, especially Japan, had made
the Swiss capital her final home.
Among the many writings of Miss
Scidmore, who left large circle of
one which commanded the most wide
spread and continuing interest, accord
ing to Gen. Crozier, was her book las
The Hague Ordains." This volume. he
pointed out written in story form, with
scene laid at the time of the Russo
japanese War and in the Japan with
which the author was so familiar, was
in reality much more than a story, for
iG, testified as to the praiseworthy man.
MT in which the japanese authorities
administered the hitherto untried pro-
visions of the then recent International
Peace Conference at The Hague.
THE phrase Laws of War is a IA
miliar expression to the present genera
tion," said Gen. Crozier, 80 much SO
that it may not be known to every
body that prior to 1899 there was not
only no agreement among civilized ma
tionS governing such matters, but TO
country except the United States had
even gone so far as to promulgate
code of the laws of war for the guild
ance of its own armies
THE Russo-JapaneSe War was the
first to take place after The Hague
convention became effective, and thus
a peculiar interest attached to the in
fluence which it would be shown to
have on the conduct of that war. Here
was to be the first demonstration of
the conventions operation. Miss Scid-
more was well qualified to give testi-'
mony as to the intelligent, humane.
sincere and understanding spirit in
which the terms of the new conven-
ton were carried out in this, their first
test by nation which, although with
an ancient and admirable civilization of
its own, had been practicing the ways
of the Occident for only about half
century. Her story, more widely and
quickly read than reports or histories.

Chilean Has
FineChance
for Prestige
Luis Vicentini'S Record
Makes Him Real Foe for
Clever MandeIl.
BY BERT DEMBY
limited Press staff CORES pendent

CHICAGO, Sept. 5.-Luis Vicen-
TIM, the Chilean contender for the
lightweight title, who has been beat
ing the best boys in his division
with regularity, Friday night will get
his real opportunity to show that
he merits a chance at the title which
Sammy Mandel now holds.
He will meet Mandell in an over
the-weight match in which the
champions title will not be involved,
but if he wins he will be able to
force Mandell into a championship
fight.
Despite the great boxing ability OF
Mandell, there are many who be-
lieve Vicentini will win. The Chill
can already has demonstrated that
he really knows how to fight, ano
advance indications are that Cham
pion Sammy will have to extend
himself to win.
Vicentini in his last three fights
has beaten boys who were clamor-
ing for a chance at the title. In
his first Chicago appearance he
whipped Armando Santiago, the
Cuban, who had just knocked out
Honeyboy Finnegan. He demon
strated in this fight that he can
take punishment. Previous to
meeting Vicentini, Santiago had
knocked out every one be hit flush
on the chin. But twice Vicentini
took the Cuban's right on the jaw
and didn't even stagger.
Vicentini followed his win over
Santiago with a victory over
Tommy Grogan and then surprised
everyone, probable including him
self, by handily beating the tough
Ray Miller in ten rounds. Miller,
who had beaten Jimmy McLarnir1,
was an 8-5 choice to win, but vi
centini out-generaled and outfought
him all the way He foCred Ray

real job on his hands Friday night.

enough, but once they put on uni
forms it was real war. The same
thing was true of the Yankees and
Athletics last season. The Ath-
letics never had anything to say to
us and we ignored them.
When the two teams would meet,
the players would come through the
dugout without speaking, and when
an argument started on the field it
wasn't any kidding matter. They
meant it. When I broke in with the
Red Sox we had a feud on with the
Tigers and for a long time after
the feud was over I had strong
feeling against the Detroit club.
But the game is full Of laughs
Just the same-and some of the best
laughs come right at moments
when you least expect them, like
that world series game in 1923 when,
with the score tied, runner on
third and two out, Joe Duggan
stepped out of the batting box and
yelled to Jack Scott who was
pitching:
