Not to• mak( top great a mystery
of it, the gentlemen referred to are
the Marlon Globetrotters, undoubt-
edly the best known basketball
team v earth.
Just. tale, 1a look at the record' -
Last year the Trotters played 153
"regular -season" games. They add-
ed three more down in Cuba, at the
lnvitatiomd'Tournament. After that
they loured America ou an 18 ;game
"World Series" jaunt. When, no
doubt ,just to keep from getting
rusty, they finished up by playing
no less than 73 gam'; in various
parts of hurope amen :forth Africa.
"khat tote; up to 247 games and
of that number the 'Trotters finished
on the short end a mere ten times,
which unset be some sort of a re-
cord. Of you want to figure out
the exact percentage. just divide 247
into 237 and you'll get it. Right
now, simple addition is enough of
a strain for us, personally-.)

According to Owner -Coach Abe
Saperstein, of the Trotters, right
pow Europe is a veritable hotbed
of basketball. (\Ve had an idea it
was a hotbed of several other
things, but we'll leave that to the
politicians.) The coloured boys from
Marlen are already scheduled for
96 games in 17 European coun-
tries, as well as 24 games in South
America, between next May 14 and
Labour Day. In addition Saper-
stein, who originated the Globe
Trotters just a decade ago, plans
to go back for at least five years
more. That is, if world conditions
permit—.which we sincerely hope
they do_
The'Trotters, in addition to play-
ing a lot of games, play to a lot
of propbe.
"We played to half a Million
people on our 73 -game tour last
summer," he said here recently.
"We had sell-outs practically every-
where including some 15,000 in
Paris and close to that two straight
nights in Genoa. In Brighton, Eng-
land, we played to 48,000 fans over
a six -night span including royalty
the final night. And they want lis
for two more weeks this year."
t'1, to
pet enlber 15 this season
they had played 44 games on their
United States tour and won all 44.
According to Saperstein the travel-
ling basketball circus has played
before sellouts everywhere except
Cleveland and Chicago. "in Cleve-
land," exhlains Saperstein, "we hit
that bad snowstorm but still drew
9,600 -only 1,500 short of capacity
In Chicago we drew 9,000 ou the
night of tine Walcott -Layne fight
which was televised." Don't be
surprised if some time in the near
future the Globetrotters go after

Modern Etiquette
13y Roberta Lee
Q. Is it all right for an unmans
tied woman to atteelt the title
"Miss" to her flame when- signing
a letter?
A. Only if the title is enclosed in
parentheses., as, "(Mies) R.ntit
Thompson." Generally, if the wris
ter signs her name merely "Ruth
'1'Iaoilips011," it is taken for granted
that she is unmarried. However, if
she wishes to be euro that the
reply to her is addressed properly,
she will include the title as above.
Q. Is it necessary, when taking
leave of a group to,.which one has
been introduced, to bid each one
"good -by" separately?
A. No. A cordial "good -by" with
.a smile than includes everyone is
all that is necessary.
Q. Who provides the bouton-
nieres for the ushers and best•man
at wedding?
A. The 'bridegroom.
Q. When a young married wom-
an is introducing her unmarried
sister to another person, does she
refer to her rister merely as "Miss
Barnes?" •
A. The best procedure is to state
the relationship, as, "Mrs, Harris,
this is my sister, Ethel Barnes,"
Q. When one is a guest at a
small dinner, should one accept
a helping of every dish offered?
A. Yes. We all have our likes
and dislikes, but at a small dinner
it is embarrassing to the hostess
when a guest refuses a dish. One
can always manage at least a small
quantity.
Q. ,Should a man apologize for
his glove when he is wearing than
and shakes hands with a woman?
A. No, this is not required.
Q. If a man is walking with a
woman and someone. who is a
stranger to him speaks to his com-
panion, should he also return' the
salutation?
A, Yes, always, by lifting his hat.
t,
Q. Is it proper to mail engraved
announcements of an engagement?
A. This is not customary-, lJeu-
all5' the engagement is announced
by the girl's parents at a tea or
party, or by way of a newspaper
announcement.
Q. When leaving a .person to
whom one has just been introduced,
is it proper to say, "Good -by, Mr.
Carter, I am very glad to have
met you?"
A. Yes, this is all right. Or,
"Good -by, ;lfr. Carter 1. hope r
shall sec you again sometime."

Save A Life
Most accidents happen in
the home. As in this true
story told by a farm safety
expert.
"Janie! Janie! Time to get upl"
Hazel Thompson called up the
stairs to her l0 -year-old daughter.
Hazel herself had been up just long
enough to start a fire in the kitchen
range. •
"Coming, Mother," Janis: called
sleepily.
Mrs. Thompson It eat back to
the task of getting breakfast. She
set out the dishes, then went to
the stove for another look at the
fire. Not very promising. Almost
out. But she stirred it frith the
poker, then hopefully put the lid
hack.
"What can 1 do, Mother?" .It
was Janie, 11ow wide awake as she
entered the kitchen.
"You set the table I'll get some
meat cooked. Those men will be
here in a little while," Hazel again
lifted the stove lid, poked the fire.
"It's all out. That Kindling is
too wet Dad will have to get
something better today if he ex-
pects his meals on time. Well, a
little Kerosene should fix it."
"That's dangerous, Mother," said
Janie.
"tO11, it won't be if I'm care-
ful. I'll just pour in a little,
then toss a match into •it"
As she spoke, Mrs. Thompson
poured a little kerosene from
the can she had gotten from
the back porch.
'rhe liquid hardly touched the
kindling when .. , flash!
There was a sheet of fire. The
whole stove seemed ablaze. The
kerosene can, too. Hazel rustled
to throw it out the door when her
clothes burst into flames,
As she burst tiro the door elle
bumped into her husband.. Mr.
Thompson quickly grabbed his
wife, laid her on the floor and
covered her with an old blanket
lying in the eorner.
Yes, hazel 'Thompson lived. She
was lucky --just severe burns on
her' arms and legs. But suppose
Mr. 'Thompson hadn't been on the
porch at just the right time? And
suppose he hadn't known what to
do, Many farm women have died
front sham' accidents.
Hazel, you see, had thought the
tire was completely out.. But there
were a few sparks left --- just
enough to ignite the kerosene.
Never, never use kerosene to
slake a fire or to help ntal r a simv
(ire burn more rapidly.
