So What's the Use of Organized Ball
Throwing Stones at the Federals?
Glasshouses and Brickbats
New York. —Clutching It from the
remarks being cast hither and thither by
Organized Baseball, the Federal League
is a mince- league proposition. Hut Or
ganized Baseball's own little rules give
the Federal League a major league
status.
These rules show the difference be
tween a minor and major league. A lea
gue that has to conform to a salary limit
and whose players are subject to draft
by teams in another league is a mines*
league. A league that has no salary
limit and whose players are not subject
to draft, is a major league.
Therefore, the Feds stack up as a
major league. They pay unlimited
salaries and their players are not sub
ject to draft.
Organized Baseball, in rebuttal, de
rates that despite these facts the Fed
eral is not a major league because ts
players are not of majer league calibre.
Very well. But before thee made such
a statement it might have been well for
them to look lack through the news
paper files of the past few months an!
read some of the remarks they made at
that time.
/ ________
It may be recalled that early in Jan
uary when the Feds began to loom
largely on the baseball horizon some
of the. magnates of the Organized Ma
jors thougiit that a way to combat the
Feds would be to abolish the draft rule,
ms applied to the Class AA teams, let
these leagues pay unlimited salaries
and thus lift them to the major league
classification.
For ,a time it looked as if the plan
woijVl go through, but some of the mag
rates of the Majors wefe so sure that
the Feds would blow-up before the 1911
season opened that they thought th.j
move a foolish one. Yet, at the time,
the majority of the magnates declared

LESSON VII—PART IV.
THE EFFECT OF COLOR ON TH6
BKIN.
When the Hair le Graying.
It was a cruel convention that con
demned women past early youth to the
wearing of black. Black against the face
Is only effective with a very brilliant or
verv fair skin. On most women It has an
aging effect, repeclally If tha hair Is turn
ing gray Women prone to wrinkles
should especially avoid black, for It em
phasises every line and hollow on the
face.
A grey haired woman can wear black
for the street If the materials chosen
are ten' elegant, such as velvet, fur. or
fine, smooth cloth, or If It Is relieved by
a little white at the neck or In the hat
"'if file skin Is fairly firm and smooth,
or If the color Is high, a coarse mesh
black veil Is often very becoming, but a
fine mesh black veil will call attention
to all the lines that time has made on
the face, and will reflect others that ara
not In the skin.
The woman with decidedly grey or
white hair should adopt white or grey,
for these colors form by far the most be
coming background Navy blue and es
pecially the grey blues are a good choice,
tut brown Is rarely becoming unless the
yao are very brown. In which case It
la often effective.
Expression.
Expression has a great deal to do with
the choice of colors, and Is a much
stronger element than years In deter
mining whether certain colors are suita
ble or not. Placid, sweet-faced women of
any age can generally wear youthful
sh.xdes of pink and blue, while some
younger faces must discard them be.
cause they do not seem to suit the ex
pression. A hard face, one with the lines
strongly marked, or with a masculine
suggestion does not appear to advantage
In colors that suggest freshness and femi
ninity. And that brings us back to our
first argument; If you do not feel blue,
or pink, or rose, do not wear these
colors, but adopt the shades more suited
to your temperament.

that the players of the Class AA minors
were of such calibre that they almost
ran as majors and that some of th?
bfst cluha in the Class AA minors we r e
far better than some of the clubs in
either the American and National Lea
gues.
Therefore, it seems as if the Organized
persons who are calling the Feds a mi
nor league outfit seem to be fooling a
bit. The Feds for the most part are
made up of players grabbed from either
the majors or the Class AA minors.
"With sixty major leaguers in tin r
ranks and with practically the vest ot
their players recruited from the Class
AA teams M's certain that they take
even a higher ranking than do the Class
A A teams—the very same teams thit
the Organized Majors some months back
figured on giving a major league status.
The Organized Baseball people ought
to recall the remark about ‘’those who
live in glass cottages shouldn't heave
brickbats” and then heed the subtle
advice. The O. 13. people each and
every day declare that the Fede.al
ranks ace cluttered up with has-beeas
and unknowns, ‘while our line-ups, es
pecially our pitching staffs are all-star
combinations.”
Listed among the “all-star” combina
tions of pitchers is that oT the Detroit
Tigers. Their all-stuvs consist of
Dauss. Ihibuc. flail, Shepard, Cavet.
Covaleskie. Williams. Schultz, Mains,
Reynolds, Comstock and Boehler. Maybe
they are stars, but somebody ougt to
push way the clouds that hide them.
The Pittsburg Pirates also hoist ot
their “all-stir” pitching staff. Here 1*
is: McQuillen, O’Toole, Adams, Har
mon. Conzelman, Delhi, Duffey and
Kantlchner. The last four seem quite
unfamiliar to us- perhaps because we
tidn't follow the bush league history
veiy cosely list you*. McQulllen wms
resurrected from the minors last sea
son. and Harmon stems to have seen his
very best days.
Included in the “all-stars” that the
Phillies are toting around are Tincuy,
Mayer, Marshall, Jacobs. Gaddy ana
Haisllp. If the whole bunch were placed
on the market right now It’s doubtful If
they would bring enough money to buy
one good, first-class twirler.
The Pirates had on their catching
staff Messrs. Gibson, Coleman. Kafore,
Brnnnigan and Walt. The name of
Gibson seems quite familiar, hut we
don’t recall having seen the names of
the other gentlemen In the list of catch
ing stars.
And so it is with a large number of #
the Organized Major league clubs. Their’
catching and pitching staffs are pretty
well cluttered up with unknowns. It’s
quite likely that some of these young
sters will develop into real finds— will
become known in a few years ns among
the greatest stars of the game. But
what's true of Organized Baseball can
be true just as well with the Feds.
They have some youngsters on their
rosters. Home may r**°ve to he “bloom
ers.” Others may rise to stardom.
Ho what’s the use of O. B. throwing
stones at the Feds when they aren’t
much better off than their rivals?

unassuming manner, modesty and
sportsmanship. Oulmet made his
first appearance on an English golf
course at Deal yesterday and there
was much speculation as to how he
would shape up after his long rest
That he needa very little practice to
get Into form was shown when he
went around the count In 81 strokes,
a remarkable performance In the face
of a stiff wind.
