One thing is certain: that if Miss Wills plays as she did when she smothered Mrs. Mallory in the final for the woman's national championship and beat Miss McKane at Forest Hills, Suzanne will be up against the strongest opponent she ever encountered, and if she wins will indeed be incomparable. As Miss Wills is already in England, it would seem she had given herself time enough to become acclimatized and thoroughly accustomed to the playing conditions on the other side.

THEA 42d St. Twlea Dally, I I Sunday Mat at 3. F. RAY COMSTOCK and MORRIS GEST Present ma In "TtD TfcM cl Dcsdcd" THE ARTISTIC REVELATION OF THIS GENERATION. More or Less About Sport (Continued from page 9) Women Tennis Players Abroad Apart from the writer-player controversy, the liveliest current topic in lawn tennis circles appears to be American prospects in the Olympic series in Paris, July 13-20, and more especially the prospects of the women players who will represent the United States, and, above all else, the chances of Miss Helen Wills against the Incomparable Suzanne.

The impressive manner in which the California girl performed at Forest Hills last fall, when she took the women's national title from Mallory and when she defeated her British opponents in the international series for the Wightman cup, inspired so much confidence in her that the belief runs strong in many quarters that she will lower the colors of the French champion, and this confidence has been reinforced recently by reports from the West that she was playing even better than at the close of last season, and had actually beaten in an exhibition match one of the ranking male players of California. On the other hand, among players and close followers of the game there are many who do not rate the chances of the American women abroad very high, believing that the difference in climatic and other conditions is too great a handicap for them to overcome. This, of course, is the unknown equation, though it does not seem to have affected appreciably the play of American men on English or European courts or of Englishmen or Europeans of the male sex in this country, once they have had a reasonable time to become acclimatized. Judging, however, by the showing of the i English women players 'who played here, last season, Miss Lenglen's fiasco in this country and, generally speaking, the inferior showing that American women have made in tournaments on the other side, a change of climate or playing conditions affects women much more than it does men. In the case of Suzanne, she certainly failed to give herself time to become acclimatized, and the same may be said of some American women who have failed to do justice to themselves on foreign courts but the English women who came over here last year to compete for the Wightman cup assuredly were here long enough, it would seem, to have overcome any such handicap by the time the international matches opened.

If they are able to reverse the result of that contest on the courts at Wimbledon, where they will again meet the Americans who defeated them over here, it will afford pretty conclusive evidence that women ore more susceptible to changes in external conditions than men. Concerning This Week's Cover Cut The cover of Brooklyn Life this week shows an etching of Bayeux Cathedral, by Caroline Armington, which is now on view at the Corcoran Galleries, Washington, D. together with others of the artist's etchings and paintings. Mrs. Armington made her American debut at the Roulston Galleries, Manhattan, this spring, and some of her work was shown in the recent exhibition of the Brooklyn Society of Etchers the Anderson Galleries.

Mrs. Armington, who is a Canadian, by birth, has specialized in etchings of European cathedrals. She studied at the Academie de la Grande-Chaumiere and the Academie Julian, Paris. She is a member of the Salon de la Societe Nationale des Beaux Arts, Paris; Societe de la Gravure Originate en Noir, Paris; Societe des Graveurs Francais, Paris Chicago Society of Etchers. Collections of her etchings are in the following museums Luxembourg and Petit Palais, Paris; British Museum and South Kensington Museum, London; Bibliographic de Belgique, Brussels; Liege New York.

Public Library National Gallery, Ottawa, Canada. Where Service Counts There are many lines of endeavor where we appreciate service but where service is not of the first consideration. For instance, if you shop in a department stored for material and the price is right, that is of more consideration to you than whether the service is absolutely perfect. But, on the other hand, take a taxicab company. All that this company can serve you with is SERVICE, spelled with capital letters.

If you are able to get a cab whenever you need it, and if that cab is run by a chauffeur who is efficient, courteous and careful, you are receiving your full value. Of course, there are a great many unseen services that a taxicabuowner can perform for you. This is one of the reasons why certain companies are so much more successful than others. Let us go behind i the scenes at the garages of the and Taxicab Company. Each day the car is brought in, it is examined by a mechanic.

If he finds everything, in good condition the car is thoroughly fumigated, scrubbed and cleaned inside and out. 1 Once a month each car is kept indoors for a day when it receives a thorough overhauling. If any accessory is introduced that will make riding and driving more pleasant and safer, you know that it is immediately installed on an and cab. When you signal one of these cars and put yourself into the hands of the chauffeur, you can ride without any uneasiness. Every driver must produce acceptable references before he is engaged he must have had a good many months' experience as a chauffeur and he must know Brooklyn and Brooklyn streets as well "as those of Manhattan.

His uniform must always be in good condition, and his personal appearance must be such that it will pass the inspection of the officers of the company. The company rates are" the lowest. The What Every Bride Should Know It's so awfully exciting, preparing to get married There's so much shopping to be done. girls find it a simply glorious experience when one just forgets there ever was such a word as economy. It is so exhilarating to buy just dozens of lovely, silken garments of softest pastel shades, beautiful dresses and wraps and gowns and chapeaux that show off your lovely form and features to perfection.

Then, too, there are stockings and gloves and handkerchiefs and scents and poudres and a thousand and one other things for your personal use and adornment that you simply can't resist buying. But shopping days do come to an end and finally the last strap is fastened on the imposing looking trunks. And, when that time comes, then it behooves both the bride-elect and her husband-to-be to turn their attention to even more important things as, for instance, the furnishing of their home. There is, perhaps, no more thrilling pastime than the choosing of intriguing bits of furniture for your own personal love-nest. What could bt more fascinating than to stroll leisurely through the enchanted aisles of a high-class furniture shop, looking here, peeping there, in an endeavor to find something that is different, something that is odd, something that nobody else has, something that will call forth the sincere praise of a connoisseur?

There's sure to -be something on the floor that will just fit in somewhere in your home. Walnuts from Turkey Walnuts are Turkey's most important export food item. The annual production is estimated at 8,000 to 10,000 long tons, three-fourths of which are exported.

The walnut industry in Turkey owes its success, not to the cultivation of the trees or intelligent maintenance of orchards, but to the mere accident of the indigenity of the trees. The Turk simply avails himself of the 'benefits that nature provides. There is no planting or spacing of trees, no horticultural even of the most primitive nature, and there is undoubtedly considerable waste of the actual yearly growth. Warehouses have been built exclusively for the storage of walnuts at Constantinople, Samsoun and Smyrna, where the crop is assembled for exporting. Helen versus Suzanne As for Miss Wills' chances of beating Miss Lenglen, if this factor could be eliminated from consideration, we should think they were very good.

While the little we have seen of -the French girl's play has convinced us that in technique or deftness of execution she is peerless among women and unsurpassed by any player of the male sex, this alone could not enable her to overcome an opponent commanding such masculine speed, combined with accuracy, so quick at the net, and, above all, combining physical endurance and agility with an ideal match play temperament: If Miss Lenglen can beat Miss Wills with the latter at the top of her game, then she must possess qualities in addition to her inimitable mastery of the racquet, which she had no occasion to display, when we were.present. Among these is certainly not imperturbability. It must be remembered that she has never apparently been opposed by a player she did not outclass, and the only time apparently that she was ever called upon to go the limit, she defaulted to Mrs. Mallory. Miss McKane "Ain't it the Truth?" Experience is what you get while you are looking for something else.
