CudahV Rex Lose TO Brown ParkSin OPENING Game

With one of the top crowds Of
the year present at F%ontenelle
park Sunday, the Brown Parks
put on a good show, the Cudahy
Rex a bad one. The final score of
the first playoff game between the
two league winners in the Omaha
Amateur Baseball association was
1914 for the Browns.
You can write your own esti-
mate of the size of the crowd; it
must have been near 10 thousand.
The day was sultry enough for
good ball, but there was none in
the Cudahy team.
Lad "The Zephyr" Kozeny walk
ed on four straight pitches, then
Joe Wurth hit a long home run to
give the Browns a 20 lead as the
game opened. The Browns got two
more runs in the inning. and from
then on out the Ak-Sar-Ben league
champions couldn't or wouldn't field
a thing.
Saunders in Box
For some reason Manager c. C..
Cnrrie of the Rex chose to start
Saunders, who pitched little dur
ing the regular season. Saunder
wasn't the man for the task. Rosy
Walker came on in the second, but
the Browns momentum swept him
aside in favor of Wright.
Another thing hard to under
stand was the o. A. B. A. officials
reason IN allowing tire Browns
extra players for a leisurely series.
With three pitchers present, the
Browns were given Bill Talbitzer to
hurl, Joe Neimic for second base.
The Rex, being the only Negro
team in town, had no spot from
where to draw added talent.
Its an old custom in the city
SERIES" explained Manager Frank
Cerveny of the Browns.
Wurth Leads Attack
Eddie Stanek, who pitched the
Browns to the pennant in the
Community (which is rated the
fastest in town., was playing out
field and FIRST base. He's too busy
with the Southwest Iowa tourna-
ment and the state softball tour

COST OF LIVING

MINNEAPOLIS, March Is.
Early 1887 finds food prices max
ing a new high since March, 1881,
with a jump of 2 per cent from
December, 1886, to January, 1887.

average family, which could be
bought for $50 at 1888 price levels.
cost 1892 for the same items In
January of this year, according to
Northwestern National Life Insur-
ance company.
Thanks to a sharp upturn in
wage rates in the closing months
Of 1886 and January. 1887, revers-
ing the down trend observed In
the third quarter of last year,
average income of employed work
ers showed a slightly greater gain
during the past year than did llV-
ing costs. From January, 1886, to
January, 1887, average wage levels
rose SO per cent, while living costs
were climbing 3.6 per cent in the
same period, the study shows.
Employment Dips
Offsetting the better pay checks
of employed workers was the de-
cline of over 100000 in employ
ment from December to January
among the approximately 14,500,-
900 workers covered in the study.
The greater part of this shrinkage
is seasonal. and accounted for by
the drop in retail employment fol.
lowing the record holiday trade;
another substantial portion of the
decline is the effect of widespread
strikes.
Meat. cereals and bakery prod
ucts, fats and oils, and fresh fruits
and vegetables, led the rise in food
prices, according to the study.
House and apartment rental
rates continued their steady climb,
the report showed. Equivalent
accommodation to those rented
for $24 a month in 1888 cost $30.31
in January, 1887. Clothing prices,
however, are at the approximate
general level of two years ago, and
are only 10 per cent above 1888.
Better Balance in 1896

Shaking Hands Is
Matter of Impulse
eseeeeeseeeoeeseoesssesees

n EAR Mrs. Post: Should a wom-
~ an, when taking leave Of a
small family group, several Of
whom she met on this occasion for
the first time, shake hands with ev-
eryone? And would the fact that
she shook hands with each one an
hour or so before when meeting
them have any bearing on your an
swer? While know that shaking
hands is not SO much practiced to-
day as it once was, l wish | knew
at what times it was still the polite
thing to do.
Answer: The question of whether
to shake hands under the circum-
stances you mentioned is far more
a matter of impulse than of rule.
If those whom you have been talk
ing with are standing directly next
to you, your natural impulse would
be to shake hands. But if they are
sitting in different parts of the room
you would certainly not go from one
to the other. Again, if one of them
goes with you as far as the door,
you would probably shake hands
with her, or him, as you say good

Nov is the time of year when a
midseason coat becomes a
wardrobe requisite. Much is de-
manded of this coat. 1t not only
has to round out the summer season
with a perfect touch but it is ex-
pected to usher in the new fall sea-
son with a proper style flourish.
Then, too, it must be not too heavy
weight for immediate wear and not
too lightweight for autumn COM
fort.
1t is with cunning awareness of
all these "musts' and Unjust nots"
of a midseason coat that versatile
designers fell into step, cutting ca
PRECIOUS capers with tempting
tweeds and featherweight f1eeces,
also with soft lightweight woolens.
White and pastel wool coats, al
ways important dots on the summer
landscape, are especially good style
this year being as popular for wear
in town as in the country. The wide
variety of weaves and patterns in
these lightweight monotone woods
has added much to the style interest
in these casually correct coats. The
white, buttonless, three quarter
length full swinging swagger coat
conferred in the illustration is the
sort you treasure, for, accompanied
by a matching skirt, it makes
most practical and stunning cos
tune to wear when weather is fair,
be it a midseason or a warmish
autumn day. To add to it's prac-
ticality this coat may be worn
over summer dresses and the skirt
may double with delightful contrast
ing ightsome wool sweaters.

Uneven Skirt Line Latest
Style in Evening Gowns

A Paris fashion house shows a
practical evening gown with short
skirt in front and definite back
ward dip to a greater length. These
full skirts resemble the carleton
skirts worn by ballet dancers. The
material is gathered into so many
folds that the skirts swing out grace
fully in wide sweeps with every
movement of the body.
These short skirts are far more
practical than f1oor-length ones,
which are likely to get trampled
underfoot when dancing, and their
width and fullness make them
graceful as well as practical.

FEATURE Wells IN
MODELS FOR AUTUMN

Wells which not only cover an en-
tire hat but the face and the Shout
ders are the most striking feature of
many advance fall models.
The large mesh veil which is dot
ted with chenille is the favored type
for wear during the daytime, but
there are some handsome lace wells
to wear for more formal occasions.
Most of these wells are circular in
shape and are thrown over the high
peaked crowns of the new hats so
that their draped edges extend well
over the shoulders. Sometimes they
are placed over the head before the
hat is put on so that the part which
covers the crown of the head serves
as a crown for the hat.
Another type of veil, also circular
in shape, has the center cut out so
that the veil fits around crown or
edges the brim of hat. 1t usually
is worn to give downward sweep
at the back, frequently extending
halfway to the waistline.

Watch crowns! The advance fall
hat fashions declare that height is
the chief aim of designers. The
three types that lead the millinery
procession for midseason and early
fall are berets, toques or turbans
and the hat with a brin that takes
an abrupt turn up at one side re-
vealing half of the couture. There
is no doubt that millinery fashions
are tending toward the extreme,
and they are also very versatile.
The three silhouettes pictured con-
vey an idea as to important mill
linery gestures. The high draped
toque at the top is significant of
the future. The beret of velvet is
featuring as a smart midseason
number, and women who lead in
fashion are wearing them with their
summer frocks at this time. The
dashing high-side-brim hat is some
thing to look forward to since mil
liners are featuring it in various
moods often with rather spectacular
feather trims.

Let Members Pour
at WOnen's Club Tea

n EAR Mrs. Post: Our women's
- club is giving a large tea for
approximately a hundred and fifty
guests. Would you suggest that it
is better at a tea of this size to let
the hotel do all the serving, or do
you think it more friendly to have
members of the committee preside
at the tea table?
Answer: At a tea for as many as
fifty the details of serving are more
often than not taken care of by the
caterers, or by the servants in a
private house. However, in your
case, if sufficient members of the
committee take turns at pouring, it
should not be too firing for any one
of them, and there is no question
that club hostesses at the tea ia
BILE would create a more friendly
atmosphere. In any case, all the
other details of replacing used cups
and saucers with fresh ones and re-
plenishing sandwiches and cakes
and passing them will be taken care
of by the hotel.
