hitting professionals, the game is
spectacular in the extreme.
The ball, hard and about the size
of tennis ball, is served from the
basket and driven against the front
wall, to be scOOped up before its
second bounce and returned by
member of the opposing side. Teams
range from one to four on a side.
AS in tennis, the technique lies in
slamming the ball to a spot from
which it is hard for the opposing
player to return it. When played by
experts the game appears easy, but
great skill and endurance are re-
quired. There is also an element of
danger, for a ball travelling at ter
rife speed for a distance of $50 to
200 feet is enough to knock out a
player who allows his head to get in
the way.
For spectators, safely guarded
from wild shots by wire netting, one
of the most exciting points of the
game is the rebote, or rebound
stroke, when a player scoops the
ball on its rear-wan bounce and
sends it flying through the air in a
sweeping motion that often pulls him
off his feet.
Jai alai is to South America what
baseball is to the United States. In
this country expert teams have al
ready been developed in such CEN
tiers as Miami and New York.

Every Man a Hero

In regulation football linemen
have a thankless job. The ball car
rier gets cheered by the crowd,
while the poor tackle who opened the
hole through which the carrier ad-
vanced merely has his face stepped
on. A center's chance to score is
just about nil.
But in six-man football every man
on the team is eligible to receive a
pass, and every player is potential
hero.
Playing time is in four 10-minute
periods. Other changes from the
regulation game are minor.
In most of the towns where six
man football is being taken up, the
reigning sports were baseball, bas-
ketba1 and track. A survey made
by Epler shows that more than half
the high schools in this country have
never played football, whereas bet
ter than 80 per cent of the schools
play basketball.
But because the period between
the start of school and the start of
basketball season has been a void
for popular sports, six-man football
has proved to be a natural. 1t starts
the school year off with a bang, and
recruits for the new-fangled game
We're not long in coming forward.

Beauty Requires
Proper Diet

Young beauty, it is true, can stand
a lot more wear and tear than older
beauty. Nature does allow a quick
rejuvenation of tired tissue, and
muscles of the youthful body natur-
ally have greater duration of
strength. That is why many young
girls feel that they can eat and drink
what they desire, and sleep when
they want to, without losing any of
their fresh beauty.
They rely on strong facial mus
cles, unstrained tissue, and other
youthful assets, to see them through.
But woe to those who do not realize
that nature demands consideration
or she just falls down on her job!
Those girls find themselves tired
looking at 20, and completely faded
by 80 when any American girl
should be her most beautiful!
What you feed your body with is
of primary Importance. From milk
which is almost the perfect food
your body can draw nourishment
and provide strength. 1t is one of
the most important items of any
girls diet unless she is allergic to
it. It keeps the bloom in her cheeks,
wards off tooth decay and other dis
eases, keeps her bones strong and
her eyes clear.
How much wiser for young girls
to sip milk at parties than to dull
their senses, and poison their blood
with strong drinks. I'm no Grundy,
girls, but my hat goes off to Miss
Bogert and girls like her who plan
for the future!

OMAN Football
Clicking Fast
In Rural Areas
By HERB ROGERS

DR0BABLY few of the hundreds
of thousands who watch the big
intercollegiate football games these
fall Saturday afternoons have ever
heard of "six-man football" Yet
more than 1000 schools in that many
small towns throughout the cOun-
try have pint-Sized teams in the
field this season.
Reports from state interscholastic
athletic associations indicate that
the number will be doubled in 1889.
Born only four years ago, the game
has already outgrown its swaddling
clothes.
Originator of six-man football is
a Chester (Neb.) high school teach
er named Stephen Epler. Back in
September, 1884, he got tired of
watching students twiddle their
thumbs from the opening days of
school until basketball season rolled
around. He felt that Chester stu
dents should have a fall sport.
His school didn't have enough stu
dents to man a regulation football
team, and even if they had, there
wasn't enough money available to
put them into football gear.
So, with the cooperation of his
superintendent, Epler went to work.
He started to remake football from
the million dollar spectacle it had
become into a modest sport that
would fit the purse and personnel of
the small town school.

mouth, though he quickly pulled
it out when his mother made the
introduction.
l could not refuse his hand when
he put it forth in gentlemanly
gesture, though ! noted that some
of its visible soil, and doubtless
some unseen germs, were trans
ferred to my own hand during the
greeting.
No sooner had we unclasped
hands than a tremendous sneeze
all but engulfed Johnny. And in
spite of his almost adult manner
at meeting a stranger, he had not
learned to cover his nose and
mouth during a sneeze. The lolly-
pop was sprayed with moisture
and germs. Two seconds later,
the child put the lollypop back in
his mouth and continued sucking
it!
And yet his mother could not un-
derstand why he had colds!
