Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I work in the - branch
office Of a big concern and I
have been here for seven years.
The president Of our firm has
never been to this office, nor
has any of his family, with the
exception Of one son. This boy
visited this office about two
years ago and was in just be-
tween trains. He was recently
married and I received an an
nouncement of his marriage. :.
not an invitation. His bride is
a total stranger to me, as is his
family. Is it necessary and
proper that I write them (the
young coupled a note of good
Wishes" in view of the fact that
I have never met the girl and
only met the boy once about
two years ago? If so, will you
please suggest the wording of
such a note and should it be
addressed to Mr.. and Mrs.
John Jones?
I might add that both men
in my office are good friends of
the young mans family, and
both received invitations to the
wedding. G.
Under the circumstances,
which you have so clearly set
forth, it would not be a bit nee
eSsary for you to acknowledge
this formal announcement. It
was very courteous and thought
full Of these people to send you
an announcement, but I am
sure that they regard 1t as
simply a formal way of telling
the news, and since you know
the young man so slightly and
the young lady not at all, they
would not expect an acknowl-
edgment.

Heavy Foods

Heavy Foods
Question: My family always
insists upon pastry and other
heavy foods. They seem well
enough, but the children do
not have as clear compilations
as some of our Salad-eating
friends. Has food anything to
do with this? d. G.
Answer: Probably. Active out
door exercise will burn up much
Of the heaviness Of the food,
but try to include green vege'
tables and salads in the diet
tactfully.

Couture

Question: I have inclOSed my
picture-will you please tell me
how to comb my hair so that it
will be becoming to me? I
hope to have my hair cut
shorter and the ends perma-
nentIy curled in a week or so.
A. Nj. T.
Answer: Part your hair a
trifle higher and comb it back.
Then have your first wave a
trifle lower. Don't expose your
ears as you have done-Just
the lobes.
Weight
Question: Can you tell me
how much I should weigh? /
am Is years of age ard am
S feet 6 inches tall.
Answer: I think that a girl
16 years of age and S feet 6
inches tall should weigh about
1913 pounds. Your daily total
intake of Galleries should range
from 1000 to $500.
Oily Skin
Question: My skin seems to
be too oily to use the skin tonic
you sent to me. Can you Sug.
geSt something else? N. G.
Answer: Omit the glycerin,
and use only the rose water
and witch hazel. If this lotion
proves too drying, reduce the
proportion of witch hazel used.
AStringent
Question: I am using aStrin-
gent and skin tonic. Is 1t all
right to make my face up after
using these or will my skin be-
come arritated. F. r.
Answer: It is perfectly safe to
apply make up after the use Of
astringents you name. Plain
witch hazel may not be too
strong for a heavy, oily skin,
but probably would be for a
thin, sensitive skin.

!Culling the Cauliflowers
BY FRANCIS E. STAN .

Shikat gets all too few real tests IN
this bailiwick, his match with Ray Steele
a couple of years ago being his last
really serious bout, but in Zbyszko he
undoubtedly will meet true match.
Though aging, libby can hold his own
and, if the current rumor that the
boys will shoot" is true, may upset the
smooth-working German with an at
tack on Shikat's brittle legs, the same
offensive which Jim Londos used to
lift his title from Richards brow back
in 1890.
While shikat and Zbyszko leer for
attempts for feature-bout recognition
will be made by George zaharias and
Gino Garibaldi.
Garibaldi, who meets Sol Slagel In
another finish match, IS aiming to OBJ
tain another match with Zaharias, who
won their last meeting in one OF the
most sensational brawls perpetrated In
the local ball orchard. George, how
ever, also will be called upon to hop q
hurdle in fat Herbie Freeman Of the
Bronx Freeman is fugitive from the
Bowser-C urley gang.
TOR a fighter of Jack Sharkey's
standing $4,000 isn't q startling
sum to be realized for a fight,
but, nevertheless, the Boston COB will
have the last laugh on Philadelphia's
promotorial forces when he fights
Tommy Loughran in the Quaker City
on September q.
Despite the fact that Jack has been
standout heavyweight for some years,
it will be Sharkey's first scrap in
Philly, the town where he sought to
begin his professional career, only to
have the Quaker City promoters turn
thumbs down on him.
Johnny Burns, who has been
staging fights at the Cambria
Club in Kensington for more
than 20 years, recalls the efforts.
of a fighting sailor called Bat
Ting Ski to get . fight in Phila-
delphia some years ago.
Turned down fatty, the sailor de-
parted, changed his name to Jack
Sharkey and began a climb which
eliminated in his winning the world
heavyweight championship last year
from Max Schmeling.
In later years the Bostonian received
offers to show in Philadelphia, once
getting an offer of 100000 to meet
Loughran in a return battle after he
had knocked out the Philly idol in
New York He turned them all down
until offered Loughran for this month
with a $25, 900 guarantee and chance
to earn as high as $4,000 for the Is
round scrap, the first Of that duration
in Philadelphia.

it put on for practical test in the East

No Notre Dame coach wants it, how

Like Side Line Rule.

NNE very interesting phase of that
~ East-West game was the reaction
of the crowd, including all coaches
present, to the 10-yard side line rule
Unquestionably it adds interest to the
game through the possibility of a run
ming play gaining yardage. There was
no letdown to the offense through buck
out maneuvers and large majority of
the spectators did not and do not vet
realize that dazzling runs by Newman
and others were made feasible by this
rule.
In the case Of Newman's As
yard dash, he made use of the
sideIine. figuring that he could
skirt them and not endanger his
team by throwing Just inside of
the field.
. He used the line as feint in making
tacklers believe he was about to step
out, only to cut back in and dart off
on another tangent. The coaches
marked this and other like incidents
and you may be sure there will be many
spectacular runs down the sidelines

Has Advantage Now.

wing-back offense when it comes
to passing, and can you see proponents
of the South Bend school of offensive
thought relinquishing that advantage
without battle? We cannot.
Study the possibilities of pass
ing attack under the Warner
Hanley method and it is clear
that a rule allowing the passer
to throw from any position back
Of the line is the only possible
answer to team using the wing
back when it wants to pass:
Under the present rule the wing

Gains Are Negligible.

"A NALYZING that Chicago game, we
~ find that gains made under the
altered passing rule were for the
most part negligible. The long pass
that sent over the winning touchdown
was thrown by Newman after he had
faded back some Is yards. The East
used several distinct applications of
the unrestricted pass.
At one time the ball carrier coming
from a short kick formation, bucked
over to the short side several times,
and then on the pass attempt would
check himself short behind his line and
pass over to an end who had crossed.
On another play there uds

up behind the line Which Dere

ers and usually made to fiat

OF course, there would be many other
possibilities in the rule that would
work to the advantage of whatever sys-

Notre Dame, or anything; but Notre
Notre Dame coaches will cheerfully
pass them up to the end that the wing
back stuff be confined as at present.
