day or night, without a matching or
related jacket? Everything with
jacket, Is the new slogan and Just
because the idea is SO thoroughly
practical the vogue Is moving on OF
Its own momentum.
Turning to our illustration we know
that you will agree that the 1ackef
dress on the standing figure Is OF un-
erring style appeal. 1t Is fashioned
of triple sheer OF bemberg In the new
VIonnet bowknot print The crisp or
candle jahot Is worked In the two
colors OF the print. The slim little
jacket with Its voluminous and grace
full cape sleeves conveys message OF
high-style distinction.
Cool and comfortable for the young
girl is the little jacket-frock to the
left. The bright monotone print In
triple sheer of bemberg employed for
this winsome outfit carries an anil
mated patterning OF wee gay mono
tone posIes-a perfect complement TO
youth. The link-button fastening at
the waistline accents the modish slim
ness of this young modern. The
pleated frill which collars the jacket
also bespeaks a youthful note.
The insistent call of the mode for
white accents on dark prints Is an
swered In the swagger jacketed dress
to the right. This model Is bit more
| grown-up than the one just described
| which should make 1t of special inter
est to the matron. AS q matter Of
| fact 1t Is type which tunes to most
any age from teens on. This distln-
/ guished ensemble like its companion
models In the picture Is also made OF
| bemberg triple sheer. 1t again reminds
that the polka dot vogue Is still going
strong. The huge wide collar and far
Ing cuffs are of white taffeta.

NEED OF CENSUS

A good deal of the governmental,

community depends upon accurate
knowledge of the number of inhab.

Such vital information Is seriously
lacking these days. A leading life
insurance company discusses the sub.
ject In statistical bulletin under
the heading, How Many Are WEI"
Apparently there Is no reliable In
formation regarding the population
of the country as whole or of any
of the states or large cities. The de-
preston is to blame. Formerly II
was comparatively easy to make pop
ulation estimates In the years be.
tween the decennial census, but to-
day 1t Is difficult to make even an
approximate guess. The simple and
usually reliable methods then en-
ployed no longer are suitable to the
sudden and fundamental changes
which have taken place In our popu-
latlon during the last few years.
Economic conditions have pushed
down the birthrate, the tides of I'M
migration have reversed, and mil
lions of people are coming and going
| in search of work, never settling
down In one place long enough to be
counted. Washington has given up
and Is no longer preparing the an
nual estimates Of population.
Meanwhile business men and gov
ernmental officials are clamoring to
know the population facts about the
various states and cities. It's infor-
mation necessary for the apportIon-

Hunter trials are growing in

time now, has indicated an inter

pected at Bradley Farms, Nd, on
April 7, when the third annual
hunter trials of the Riding and

Brooklyn Dodgers. The deal
inevitable now.
It reached that stage as Walter
("Rabbit'O Maranville, perennial
youth, was being carried away
from the plate with q broken leg,
leaving the Braves without q Sec
ond baseman and Maranville
without a profession. He prob
ably won't be back on the ball
field again. At Al, you don't break
a leg and come around to collect
the insurance the following Fri
day. At that age, q mans bones
are as fragile as a wine glass and
just about as easily mended.
Journeys End?
SO Maranville doubtless will
play no more second base for Bos-
ton or probably elsewhere, with
the result that the Brooklyn-Bos-
ton deal that couldn't be made
two months ago seems almost a
cinch now. The Braves wanted
Tony Cuccinello, second base
man, at that time but weren't
prepared to give enough. It will
be different now; they'll have to
part with one Of those pitchers at
last and it might even be Ed
Brandt, the left handler, provided
the Dodgers can and are willing
to toss in somebody else, just for
window dressing.
Anyhow, they're no longer in
a position to be arbitrary owing
to circumstances that have now
passed out of their control. They
had five recognized infielderS in
camp; they now have four and
two of them are third baSemen,
including Dick GySelman, a third
baSeman who doesn't hit. A
third baseman who doesn't hit is
like a rock that doesn't hurt.
It just amt, as the fellow said.
Meanwhile, Maranville lies
trussed up in a st. Petersburg
hospital, with nothing left but
the sense of humor that has
carried him over the rough spots
since he broke in with New Bed
ford away back there in 1911.
To call the man a character Is
to condemn him with faint and
ill-fitting praise. He was, Is Q
matter of fact, the wonder OF
the age; an old man who refused
to be anything but young and
who lived to outlast the genera"
tions that, one after the other.
said he was finished. But, when
it finally came, it took an act OF
providence ito do that.
Always Came Back
Starting with the Braves in
1912, he became one of the lead
ing shortstops of baseball, play
ing magnificently in that wild,
illogical world series Of 1914. He
left Boston seven years later to
60 to Pittsburgh and some
thought then that it might be
the beginning Of the end. They
were sure Of it in 1924 when
he was traded to Chicago and
it did, indeed, look none too
reaSSuring for Maranville the fol-
lowing year when he was made
manager in July and dismissed
in September. >.
It was said at the time that
the Chicago club didn't have
enough players; what it needed
most was q manager for the
manager.
Anyhow, the Rabbit landed in
Brooklyn and was too much e-en
for the refined mad house tEat
then was moving about the coIm-
try under that name. So the
next place he landed was on tAe
street level.
Cuts Out Folly
But when he picked himself
up and busted the sole Of his
trousers, it was another Maran-
Vile. He was: through, but not
with baseball; he merely was
through with folly. His next
stop was Rochester and, for O
time, 1t looked like the end.
