pitiful to behold. Parsons, form

the slab, for Milton, and he struck
out thirteen of our heavy hitters.
This explains in a measure why the
boys tailed to score. Milton only
secured five hitsoff of McCloud, who
pitched for Bloom but he gave eight
passes to first base which together
with nine errors in the field, netted
.Milton twelve runs.

An exchange says a law should
be passrd to protect people from
their own folly. It takes the posi
tion that nine out of ten persons
who purchase goods from install
ment houses pay two or three times
what the goods are worth. It quotes
an instance where a woman pur
chased a rug from an agent repre
senting an installment house, and
paid him one dollar and agreed to
pay fifty cents a month for twelve
months. The rug the identical
rug, was displayed in the window
of a local store marked "$2, no."
The woman bound herself to pay
seven dollars.

board of governors has decided that
nothing is too cood for the Whet-I-

club house will compare favorably
with the homes of far more nre
tentious organizations in lanrer

Section 20 of the Act. arinrnvprl
