 They knocked me out when I first saw them,' he said As you put it, they're knockouts, all right
 They're full of femininity and are straightforward. It generally takes three hours to thaw out an English girl, and by that time you have to go some place else.

 PROVEN ISSUE

LYNN, Mass, May 1.-The in- vestment made by organized base ball in aiding the American Legion to conduct it's annual junior world series is paying dividends in an ever increasing tempo.
 Latest profits" from the 1887 tournament held in New Orleans are Jim Hogan and Ray Bessom, catcher and star pitcher for the winning East Lynn Post team.
 Hogan has already signed-ver- bally-to play for one of the Clevc- land farm teams His battery mate is debating whether to follow his fathers advice and enter Spring field College to study for a coach ing career or join the professional ranks. Both will graduate from Lynn English High School this June.
 News that the husky Hogan was the property of the Indians leaked out through the Minor League Bull letin, which is published for the purpose of informing the magnates what sandlot players have made agreements to play for teams con- nected with organized ball The pressure on Bessom and his fam fly by the Cleveland management is likely to swing the slim twirler into line with his batterymate pal.

 One day young man presented himself before the head of one Of New York's smartest jewelry houses T have here a very unusual pearl he said, and I am anxious to get another to match it, for my wife I got this in India last September. !"
 The jeweler took the pearl and examined it carefully. It was in- deed a curious stone. T never saw one just like this,' the gem expert admitted
 {. "Yes,' said the young man. That's why I want another to match it. My wife is crazy about it, and want it's twin for her birth day"

All Americans can belong to this great
organization of mercy. as a full-fledged
