Lindsey's deep interest in Federation
work and her great executive ability pe
culiarly fit her to fill this important of

gratified that its club has been so honored

The Clarion Normal School scandal

suit In the name of the school to recover

taken from the treasury. The sooner
this matlor is allowed to die down and
stay dead the I etter it will be for tills
worthy institution, and uuless it is drop
ped the school is bound to suffer irrepar
able loss. There's evidently a whole lot
of animus back olthe thing somewhere.

to see such a system in vogue in our
couuty.
On motion tho chair was empowered to
appoint a committco consisting of three

"Our Boys" journeyed to North Clar
endon last Wednesday and got mixed
with the speedy team of that town to the
extent of leaving a game with (hem, but

scores in the lirst lew innings, (six runs
After that it was a series of goose eggs,
while Tionesta piled up bo many of the
same sort of eggs in the first eight in
niugs that they couldn't connect to (he
full exient in the ninth, although they
had the premium oil producers in a bad
state ot "rattles" in their half of that in
ning, baiting the sphere out for live runs,
closing tho pretty game with a score of
(1-5 in favor of the p.o. p. Tho team came
home praising their hosts for tho nice
treatment accordod them, and having not
a kick to register against the umpire,
which is truly a refreshing contempla
tion. It is hoped tho Clarendon team
may give us a return game soon, when
we bespeak lor them the same elegant
treatment accorded our boys on this oc
caslon.
It is noted with a good deal of an xious
apprehension (hat the Clarington ball
sluggers have "called tho bluff" of the
Marienville aggregation iu its attempt to
