merits and savings. There is no unl
| venal consensus of opinion as to how
much should be expended on each
| item, as some people prefer to pay
! more for rent and less for food, or
more for clothes and less for rent,
| but various schedules have been sug
| gested. An equitable adjustment of
j Incomes from $1,200 to $1,600 a year,
| for example, is given as 30 per cent
for food; 23 per cent for rent; cloth
ing 14 per cent; operating expenses
113 per cent; education 6 per cent, lux
uries, including amusements, 4 per
cent, which leaves 10 per cent to be
saved. The majority of persons
spend more nearly 10 per cent for
luxuries, and as a consequence other
things must suffer—usually the sav
| lngs account.
i The thing to do is to make up your
. I mind what means the most to you,
[and plan the rest of your income ac
cordingly. If you think that educa
tion is the most essential thing In life
land wish to have your children well
I educated, you may be able to take 3
1 per cent out of the luxuries column
j and 2 per cent off of operating ex
penses and add them on to education,
increasing it to 11 per cent. On the
other hand, if you find that your so
cial or business status requires the
; wearing of good looking clothes, you
| may be able to cut down your rent or
j food. In any case. It is the old-time
process of robbing Peter to pay Paul,
| but don't make Peter the savings ac
count.
When a family moves to another
| city, or even to a different neighbor
ihood, it often requires a readjustment
of the family budget. One family
including a man and his wife and
three children, were living in a small
western city on S2OO a month. The
cost of living was not as high as in
cities of larger size, and their budget
j was divided into 17V6 per cent for
rent; 25 per cent for food; 10 per
cent for operating expenses; 17 per
cent for clothes, and 30V6 per cent for
education, amusement and savings,
i Later, they moved to New York.
• where they altered their standard of
: living to 25 per cent for rent; 15 per
I cent operating expenses, the same 25
per cent for food, which left only 35

WELLY'S M CORNER
Baseball fans throughout the State
League circuit will anxiously await
the results of the opening games in
three cities to-day. Some folks pre
dicted that the league would not start.
Barring rain, there will be games at
York, Lancaster and Reading.
Leo Groome, who with Abraham;
Rosenbluth started the State League, ]
is in Harrisburg until the baseball j
season closes. He has been a busy j
man for five months. As backer of
the Harrisburg team he promises as
good sport as can be found in Class B. !
All the responsibilities have been on j
Mr. Groome's shoulders, and even to
day he was obliged to go to Lancaster
before Joining Manager Cockill at j
York.
Players on the Harrisburg team of!
the State League got together yester- j
day ufternoon. It was the first line-up j
of the entire squad. According to j
Walter Blair and Buck Ramsey there j
are some husky boys who will make j
good. Bolinsky, a boy from the coal j
regions proved a big winner at the ]
bat. He was played In the outfield j
but may go to the infield later.
President William R. Douglass of'
the Pennsylvania State League held
a conference last night with his um
pires. He gave them instructions as
to their duties and outlined rules for
lining players who get bad. The tines,
while not heavy, will be factors in aj
player's standing. Dismissal will also |
per cent for clothes, education, lux- I
uries and savings. It soon appeared
that the majority of the 35 per cent
was going for amusement and clothes,
there being little left for education,
and practically nothing to be saved.
So the woman of the household again
went over the family budget and de
cide to decrease the expenditure for
clothes. The third adjustment pro
vided 25 per cent for rent; 15 jlcr cent
operating expenses; 35 per cent for
food and clothes, and 25 per cent for
education, luxuries and saving.
Carfare Is an item which has caused
a good deal of discussion among
among household economists. It
could hardly be included in the edu
cational column, nor yet under amuse
ment or operating expenses. It has
finally been attached to the rent, since
upon the location of your house de
[ pends the amount of carfare spent.
I Ten cents a day for six days a week
for fifty-two weeks a year is $31.20 a
l year to be added to the rent of your
'house. Most families rarely spend
\ less than a dollar a week for carfare,
j Hence, if you pay $25 a month or S3OO
a year for a house in the suburbs,
[ with an additional expenditure of $52
i for carfare, it would be just $3
i cheaper than a house nearer your
place of business at S3O a month, re
quiring no carfare. Thus in renting
a house great attention should be
given to the matter of location.
Out of the 20,255,555 families in
' this country, some five million own
their own homes, Pennsylvania hav-
I ing the greatest number, Illinois next
I and the District of Columbia last of
| all. Besides these there is a large
| number of persons engaged in buying
their own homes, which are mortgaged
!or incumbered. Tn this case, the in
terest on the mortgage, the taxes and
; the amount expended on repairs are
j counted as the rent, plus the annual
i interest on the money used in the
j building of the house if put Into some
' other investment.
1 follow certain violations and as the
league will be under protection this
! will prove serious to offending play
ers.
The first shoot yesterday between
the Harrisburg Academy and Tech
High teams was a big success. It was
: witnessed by many local shots who
look upon the beginners as comers
| for future target contests in Harris
burg.
President John G. Martin of the
; Harrisburg Sportsmen's Association is
j home from New York City where he
made good scores and won prominent
recognition. He is now arranging the
| program for the big State shoot in
this city June 23-24 which wll be at
! tended by crack shots from all over
j the United States. .
I The Blue Ridge League will open
I to-morrow. Chamber sb ur g and
! Hagerstown, old rivals, meet on the
first day. Martinsburg plays at Fred
crick and Gettysburg at Hanover.
Each team has signed up a big bunch
of young players and a successful sea
son is predicted.
The Harrisburg Academy baseball
team yesterday defeated Tech high
players in the second of a series be
tween these two clubs, score 11 to 5.
Most of the Tech hits went for noth
ing. McLaughlin pitched a good
game for the Academy. The next
game will be played Tuesday, May 16.
Football Captain Knows Not
Sensation of Being Kissed
Athletics and kissing do not seem to
go hand In hand, judging from the sta
tistics collected from the senior class
of Columbia University. Francis M.
Slmonds, Jr., captain of last Fall's var
sity football team and voted the hand
somest man in his class, has never felt
the touch of maidenly lips; Francis
Appleby, famous as a bllliardist, Is an
other of the very few who have reach
ed voting age without being kissed.
Among the other who have never had
the privilege, or discomfort, according
to the individual, of being kissed, are
the business manager of the Columbia
Spectator, an associate editor of the
same publication, the mild and modest
manager of the Glee Club, a wrestler,
a debater, a Chinaman, and a plain,
unadorned, hard-working student.
Now is the time for the girls to get
busy.
