like them. But there are limits!
Babs will show, by her sincere
and hearty enthusiasm for every
event on the program, that she is
having a good time, and that she
appreciates Bills kindness in in
viting her. She'll be kind and cour-
teous to any house mother or chap

tact. She'll be a good sport. ready
for fun, but remembering that be-

excuse for tramping on the throttle
and forgetting the brakes.
Finally, Babs will have made ar
rangements for her return trip in

won't be cluttered up with such

home, she'll write Bill a charm

grand time she had.

Keep your manicure tools and

Contracting for the wiring of a
house in the District OF Columbia
is regulated in such way that it
is impossible to employ unlicensed
labor at cheaper rates and have the
work passed by the inspector. This
code is set up to protect you and
your property from faulty wiring
which might cause fire or accident,
to conform to the fire underwriters
regulations so that the wiring in
your house may not jeopardize your
insurance, and, of course, to pro-
tect the licensed contractor from
competition with the cheaper rates
of the unlicensed electrician. 1t is
wiser from all points of view to do
business with an electrical contrac-
tor of good reputation so that the
finished job will pass the District
inspection.
You may save money by using only
wall outlets for lamps in your bed
rooms and living rooms. You must
have a center light in your kitchen
controlled by a switch, and also one
in the bathroom. This is to avoid
accident from using hand switches
at the same time that you are using
water, which might lead to electro
cution! Most of the code is de-
signed for your protection and it is
wisest not to ignore it.
Have Plumbing Done
BY an Expert.
There are specifications also for
plumbing, and this must also pass
a Sanitary inspection. So, here
again you must pay the price of the
licensed plumber rather than have
Uncle Willie hook up the kitchen
sink on his double holiday. Some of
the regulations seem very wise, and
there are even others that might be
made. For instance, an automatic
gas heater must be thirty-siX inches
from the floor and there are OBJ
vious reasons why this should be So
but there are no specifications for its
distance from the wall. It will get
hot, so be wise enough to place
yours accordingly. In our house the
kitchen had to be arranged to also
accommodate laundry equipment, as
well as the storage water tank and
the gas water heater. 1t took care
full preliminary measuring and
planning to get the necessary equip
ment where it would be useful, con-
form to the code for both gas and
water plumbing, and give to the
kitchen reasonably modern, neat
appearance. We saved money on
the plumbing by using very mex
pensive reconditioned gas stove that
cost only ten dollars, and had the
good luck to find a reconditioned
combination sink and laundry tray
for another ten dollars. This was
in excellent condition, and with the
addition of two sets of new faucets,
one over the sink and one over the
laundry tray, looks almost as good
as new.
The walls were our next big
problem. We had to consider them
in relation to the cost of materials
and labor, and also the time neces-
sary for preparation. Plasterers
rates are expensive, and plaster
takes some time to dry and cure.
The walls had been so torn up that
in most cases it was necessary to
take out large section. However, we

Lightweight Golf

John @. GOLFER can't expect his
- caddy to become very enthusiasts
tic about an invention which will, if
it becomes popular, probably relieve
him of his job.
The new gadget Is golfing kit,
and its inventors expect II to replace
the conventional and cumbersome
set Of clubs and the heavy bag. The
kit is SO designed that Il requires
only one shaft to which is attached
the head needed for each shot on
the course. The outfit weighs some
four pounds as compared to IA
pounds for the bag.
A Chicago golf pro experimental
with the kit and found it practical.
The club heads are all arranged in
slots and upper compartment pro-
vides space for balls. The club
heads all screw onto the single shaft,
and the experimenting pro found
that the heads provide firm hit
ting surface. When the club head
meets the ball the impact serves to
tighten the head since the golfer is
hitting against the groove of the
screw.
The length Of the shaft Is not ad-
Unstable, but a compromising factor
makes the putter properly short and
the distance clubs suitably long.
The hosel length controls the entire
club length. The hosel on the putt
er is practically non-existent, that for
the three iron and woods is extreme
ly long.
That the kit will ever attain high
degree of popularity is doubtful.
Most golfers will prefer the conven-
tional set of clubs. For the travel
er, however, it means freedom from
a bulky bit of luggage. For the
golfer who prefers to play without a
caddy the new set eliminates q
heavy, unwieldy bag.

Luckman Signs

CID LUCKMAN, Columbia univer-
~ sity's triple-threat half back, has
finally decided to play professional
football with the Chicago Bears.
With the signing Of Luckman, the
Bears have two Of the three out
standing passers Of this years col
lege graduating class. Billy Pat
terson had already signed with that
club. The third man. Davey
O'Brien Of Texas Christian, belongs
to Philadelphia.
George Halas signed great play
er in Luckman. His passing record
is one of the best. Last year he
threw 1872 passes, completing 66 for
nine touchdowns and 1865 yards. He
completed 10 out of II forward fiips
against Yale for 1853 yards. In 81
times carrying the ball he gained
428 yards. averaging as yards each
attempt.
Luckman is six feet tail and
weighs 1876 pounds. He possesses all
the physical requirements for star
dom, and Halas will give him ample
opportunity to trying his hand at
carrying As well rs passing the ball.
The Ivy league lad didn't leap At
the chance to turn pro. He seemed
to take much greater pride in his
academic training than in his ath-
letic ability. II took quite a bit o,
persuasion to get him back in MOLE
skins, and signs Of relief were dis.
tinctly audible when he affixed his
signature to . two-year contract.

McNair From Boston

Detroit, on the other hand, retains
none of the original three men they
drew in the six-man swap.
Eric McNair came 10 the Sox
from Boston in return for Boze Ber-
ger. McNair's hitting ability has
been more than welcome by the
Sox. Since joining the Red Sox,
Berger has worked only as sub.
stitute.
Dykes picked up Kuhel in trade
which sent Zeke Bonura to Wash
ington. Kuhel had poor season in
1898, but hit his stride this year.
In the meanwhile Bonura was
waived out Of the American league.
