Answered for Boya . 1 Why Is a Civil Engineer? Because He's Not in the Army. By R. S. ALEXANDER. "Dad, why do they call a civil engineer a civil engineer? Is it be cause he is supposed to be polite?" "No, I'd hardly say that, Sonny. You see, originally the only engi neers there were were in the army. So when men outside the army be gan to take the same training and do the same work as the army engineers, they had to invent a new name for them. They called them civil engineers that is civilians who did the same sort of- work the army engineers did!" "What sort of work was that?" "Well, they built bridges, laid out camps, built forts, did surveying, etc. They still do work along the same lines. Now there are several main divisions of civil engineering. Structural engineering takes in all sorts of building with steel, timber, stone and concrete. Railway and highway engineering takes in all sorts of work in keeping up the roadbed of railroads, laying out and building new lines, repairing roads and making new ones. "Hydraulic engineering takes in all sorts of engineering operations which deal with water, such as city water plants, reservoirs, sewage systems, irrigation systems and canals." f "What sort of a fellow should a civil engineer be?" "He should like mathematics first of all. He should be ingenious and resourceful and he should have lots of. good common sense. If you are not clever at working things out for What Shall I Be? Answered for Girls yourself, don't try to become a civil engineer." You will need more than these things, however, to get you any where. You need some Very costly training. You should have your high school course. Then you should have a four-year course in a good technical school. Some of the money for this course you can make for yourself. Most of the big schools have employment bureaus which help students to get part time jobs while they are going, to school. Then you can earn some money during vacation. - "If jrou want to find out ' more about it, write to the registrar of one of the big technical schools or to the secretary of the American Society of Civil Engineers, 33 West Twenty-ninth street, New York City."

"I've learned a lot, mother, from that correspondence course on poul try raising. I'm wondering if you could spare me for a few weeks' study at the university," said Esther thoughtfully. "Go ahead, daughter. Make your plans." "I'll tell you what they are. I think the girl who would really be a success as a poultry raiser should start out as assistant on a poultry farm. Next, she should take a course in poultry raising at an agricultural college. After that, she can keep in touch with the latest information by sending for the free reports of the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, and by reading the poultry magazines. "We have a good sized plat of land, just thcthing. This will give free range to the chickens; and we can raise green things to cut down the food bill for feed costs like ev erything." '.'How many chickens will you have?" "I'll start with a few and increase gradually until we have, about 200 hens. All the experts say it's a busi ness one must learn slowly." "Two hundred hens!" "Yes, that many. How would you like to raise 3,000 yearly? That's what the big poultry, raisers handle. They say the little plant of 200 to 300 is very simple in comparison to the large one which demands wide experience, considerable capital, and a ready market." "Do you know that there are hun- dreds of failures in this business yearly?" " "That's why I want a good start. Experts say chicken raising nearly always pays if.it is studied as any other business is: The poultry plant on the farm pays. It's often run by a woman, too, the farmer's wife." "Where is your capital to start?" "It doesn't take much capital to begin. I'll start with a few hens. There is and always will be a de mand for table fowl and eggs, but we won't be rich with the income from 200 hens. The average profit is $1.50 per hen yearly. "Maybe, after I've started I'll raise fancy stock. Single birds have brought prizes in' poultry shows as high as $150 and the eggs lrom these birds have sold as high as $15 a set ting" . . . . (Monday: the story of the musk- "A Connie Mack Has Youngest Base Ball Team in Majors If "Youth Must Be Served," the Phillies Have the Pen nant Cinched But Connie Doesn't Expect to Cop The Honors This Year. By JAMES CRUSINBERRY. Lake Charles, La., March 18. (Special.) There's an old-time say ing that youth will be served. If that be absolutely true, the Philadel phia Athletics are destined to win the American league pennant this year, because Connie Mack has as sembled the youngest ball team in the major leagues. Maybe the old-time maxim doesn't apply to base ball. Evidently Connie Mack himself doesn't believe in it in this case, because Connie doesn't expect to win a pennant. However, the veteran leader of many cham pions of other days does expect to get out of the cellar position after having occupied it for five succes sive years. Stars With Twenty-four Rookies. Down in his Lake Charles train ing camp, Mack started spring work with 33 players. Only nine of them have earned big league service stripes, the other 24 are kids. The youngest of them is only 18 years old. There are many right around the 20-year mark. They look like freshmen at a college athletic field. The oldest man in the squad is Tilly Walker, who has turned 32. Amos Strunk is 30, Scott Perry is 28, Roliene Naylor is 27 and Burns is 26. Those fellows are classed as old men in this camp. The 18-year-old lad is Bob McCann, who actually played professional ball last year in the 'Virginia State league. . Has Tried Host of Lads. Connie Mack has' tried out a host of young lads since he broke up his famous champions after the season of 1914 and set about the task of building a new team. No man in base ball has experimented with so many youngsters. During the closing week of the 1919 season he had 45 players in uni form practicing every day, and 24 of them were pitchers. He had to dig to the bottom of the old trunks to get enough uniforms to equip the squad, and then some of them came forth wearing the old double deck caps of 1910. In the years following the wreck ing of the champions Mack has ex perienced great distress in handling his club. The few good playrs that he retained, and some more good ones whom he acquired, were always dissatisfied, because they didn't want to play on a tail-end club. They saw no chance to cut into a world's series purse and many actually played listless ball just with the hope of being traded. Scott Perry Example. One example was Perry, who knew last year that any one of aboui five clubs in the pennant race would like to ' purchase him from he Macks, and when Mack refused to sell him he quit the team and went to olav with an independent club Since, then Perry has seen the folly of his ways and returned. Because of all the trouble and dis tress he has experienced, Connie Mack has established a new rule in the handling of his club, which he believes will eradicate the evil. He declared to all of his players this spring that under no conditions would he sell or trade one ot tnem He made it known to them that their only chance to play big league base ball was to be good enough to stick with his team. If they aren't good enough they will be released at the waiver price only, and if no one claims them they .will go back to the minors or be released outright. Intent on Building Champions. Mack has employed this method as a means of self-defense. He wants them to stick. He wants to build up a team. They know now they will have to play ball for him, or perhaps not at all. There will be no more sales like those of Ed die Collins, Frank Baker, Chief Bender, Eddie Plank, Stuffy Mcln nis, Jack Barry, Joe Bush and Wal lie Schang. For pitchers he has only three men of experience Perry, Naylor and Kinney the latter a southpaw who made good last year. Among the young fellows is a great prospect in Bryan Harris, six feet 6ix inches high, and thinner than Rube Mar- quard. All he seemed to need was practice in fielding bunts, and he's had hours and hours of it daily in amp. Ed Rommel, a corking pitcher for Newark last year, seems ready for the big leaguers. He got his early training at Baltimore as bat boy, finally getting a chance with tit team on spring training, ceiore go ing to camp he met with an accident, burning his pitching arm badly, but he kept still about it, because he wanted a trial. He was sent back after a game effort, and soon the burns healed, and he got a chance with Newark. Pat Martin, the left-hander pur chased from Binghamton, appears to be a smart fellow, with enough stuff to stick. Lyle Bigbee, a right handcr from Seattle, looks fine, and probably will make good. Charles Eckert, a semi-pro from Philadel phia, has made a good showing. . Know These Infielderj? Mack will have a young infield. Ivy Griffin. 23 years old, from At lanta, is choice fo? first base. Joe Dugan, with the Athletics three years and now only 22, is set for second. Clarence Galloway, 22, from Atlanta, is the strong candi date for short, and Frank Brazill, tried by Biooklyn last year and then sent to Hartford, where he hit .369, is the m:)st likely man for third. He is just 20 years old. Having another speedy kid for first base, Dick Burrus, from Colum bia, S. C. Mack decided to send the veteran, George Burns, to rigfit field. Strunk- will be in center and "Whitev" Witt, who performed on the infield at one time, will be in left field. Walker will do the pinch hit ting and utility work in the outer garden. May Raise Prices. ' ChiiMfiro.' March 19. Athletic directors of the western conference universities met Friday to consider the advisability of raising prices to foot ball eames and all other ath letic contests. The advance was necessary, they said, because of the increased cost of athletic ea.uiDtne.nt and the high salaries paid to heads of athletic departments. Action was deferred.

For real downright, harassing discomfort very few disorders can approach -so-called skin disorders, such as Eczema, Tetter, Boils, eruptions, scaly irritations and similar skin troubles, notwithstand ing the lavish use of salves, lotions, washes and other treatments ap plied externally to the irritated parts. No one ever heard oi a person being afflicted with any form of skin disease whose blood was in good condition. Therefore, it is but logical to conclude that the proper method of treatment for pimples, blotches, sores, boils, rough, red ' and scaly skin is to purify the blood and remove the tiny germs of pol lution that break through -and manifest their presence on the sur face of the skin. People in all parts of the country have written us now they were com pletely rid of every trace of these disorders by the use of S. S. S., the matchless, purely vegetable blood cleanser. S. S. S. goes direct to the center of the blood supply, and strengthens and builds up the cir culation, giving a clear and ruddy complexion that indicates a healthy condition of the skin.
