Garrett Boxing Bouts
The hoxing bouts held by the Garrett
Athletic Club on Decoration Day were
all thrillers.
ing was between George Gaspering of
Shaw Mines and Wade Tucker of Gar-
rett. Gaspering showed very fine work
in the first round, but young Foxey
Tucker was using head work and in the
seccnd round, let loose with a banage
of lefts and rights to‘the head and body
and the fight was won by Tucker.
In the second bout Bob Shockey of
Rockwood, easily defeated young Court-
ney of Meyersdale. The third bout was
between Battling Walters of Garrett,
and Andy Andrucci of the Willows Club
of Pittsburgh. What Andrucci did to
Walters was a cripe. He was far too
fast for Walters and could hit him at
any time he willed. Time after time
Walters went down and several times
he fell to save himself from punishment.
The plain facts are that Andrucci had
him outclassed’ in ring experience, and
science which had Walters always daz-
zled.
The fourth bout was between young
Lowery of Shaw Mines and Kid Bittner
of Rockwood, Bittner gaining the deci-
sion.
Fifth bout, Gene Miller of Meyers-
dale defeated David Romesberg of Gar-
rett. That Romesberg has a wonderful
fighting heart is a certainty as he stood
up until the referee had to stop the
fight.
Sixth bout, Go Gettem Gettings of Je-
rome, easily defeated Otis Naylor of
Meyersdale in the first round.
The Garrett Athletic Club has been
“holding some very good bouts and should
be complimented on the way that the
shows are carried out.
WEEKLY HEALTH TALK
“Before many weeks have elapsed a
‘definite number of Pennsylvania’s citi-
zens will be wheezing and sneezing, vie-
tims of so-called hay fever. And while
they are thus suffering and waiting for
that distant event of a ‘fall frost’ they
will get little relief from any source.
Therefore, on the surface, the lot of the
hay fever subject appears to be a hard
one,” said Dr. Theodore B. Appel. Sec-
retary of Health, today.
“As a matter of fact, science has de-
veloped a quite successful method to
combat this seasonal affliction. To begin
with, only that comparatively small mi-
nority of individuals who possess an un-
usual sensitiveness to the pollens of cer-.
tain plants, weeds, grasses and trees are
ever subject to hay fever. And this
fact has been made possible the develop-
ment of counteracting serum.
“In order to make this modern treat-
ment effective it is necessary to discover
the particular pollen that is causing the
disturbance. This calls for a visit to a
physician who is prepared to make tests
with extracts of pollens that may be
logically suspected of causing the trou-
ble in the particular case.
“The test is exceedingly simple as well
as painless. By way of a needle prick
a bit of each extract finds its way under
the skin. The particular extract that
causes a slight local reaction quite de-
finitely fixes the offender. Then inno-
culations of that type are administered.
“The success in this therapy lies in
establishing immunity before the pollen
season. Afterwards is likely to be too
late. Therefore, it behooves all hay
fever sufferers to take advantage of this
scientific weapon without delay. It may
not be effective or perhaps merely par-
tially so, but the percentage of successes
is sufficiently high to test this treatment.
Get the edge on hay fever before it
gets the edge on you.”
Education by Radio
The Federal Radio Commission has |
been giving hearings on the subject of
education by radio. These hearings have
been participated in by Secretary of the
Interior, Ray Lyman Wilbur. Leading
radio authorities and others, have ex-
pressed their opinions to the Commis-
sion. The Chairman of the Commission,
Ira E. Robinson, suggested that instruc-
tion by radio, whatever its form, should
be under direct Government supervision
—by the Government of the Nation, if
they would be worthy of the vote for
which they fought so hard.
The daughter of Mark Hanna talks in
the same language used by her father.
Her progress in the senatorial fight will
be watched with national interest.
BASEBALL IN THE COUNTY
LEAGUE
Memorial Day Somerset fittingly cele-
brated the occasion by defeating Jerome
on the Somerset grounds 2 to 1. Pick-
ing for the local, pitched a beautiful
game. Friday, Central City defeated
Windber at Windber at a score 7 to 6.
On Saturday at Hooversville team shut
out the Somerset nine 2 to 0. Sunday,
Central City defeated Windber at a
score of 11 to 7. Some people thought
that they used dice in this game. Jerome
defeated Hooversville 11 to 2 and Kelso
gave Windben a goose egg at Windber
in a score of 3 to 0. On Tuesday, the
Kelso team defeated the Somerset nine
at Somerset by the score of 12 to 0.
President Hoover calls Governor Al
Smith a great public servant and this is
one Republican charge which the good
governor probably will not take the
pains to deny.
Scientists are predicting a wide-
spread plague of June bugs this year.
Congress will have to hurry tc get
the remedy for this in the farm re-|
lief bill in time to do any good.
FARM CALENDAR
Provide Shelter for Chicks—A simple
outdoor shelter for chicks will relieve
The first bout of the even- | TOW ded conditions in the brooder house.
It will also provide ample ventilation
and cool roosting quarters during the
summer months. A sanitary range shel-
ter should be provided.
Eradicate Injurious Weed—Buckhorn
is a weed found abundantly in all parts
of the state. It injures lawns, meadows,
and pastures. Where only a few plants
are growing in the lawn, they can be
removed by hand-digging. If plentiful,
each plant should be cut with a hoe and
the fresh surface treated with crude
carbolic acid. Badly infested pastures
should be plowed and planted to inter-
tilled crops for two seasons.
Hog Pastures Pay—Good pasture for
growing pigs, brood sows, and all classes
of swine is so valuable that it often
makes the difference between profit and
loss in the hog business.
Potato Spraying Essential—Spraying
is an essential practice in successful po-
tato culture. Farmers who applied
timely and thorough sprays last year
grew their crops at the lowest cost per
bushel. On the other hand, those grow-
ers who did a poor job of spraying, or
did not spray at all, had the highest
unit of production. -
Control Chicken Insects—Lice and
mites are poultry pests which can be
controlled effectively. Use nicotine sul-
phate for lice and creosote or carboli-
neum for mites. Apply the chemicals
on the roosts.
Feed Cows on Pasture—Dairymen
find feeding grain to cows on pasture is
absolutely essential for high yearly milk
production. They supplement the pas-
ture with good quality hay, summer si-
‘lage, or soiling crops, in addition to a
grain mixture.
College Holds Farmer's Day—Thou-
sands will attend the annual Farmers’
Pennsylvania State College.

Loneliness Routed

13 HAT do people do to get ac-
quainted 2” Annie Laurie Ware
thought desperately.
“Now, if I should just stop this
man coming and say ‘I'm so desperate-
ly lonely thay I'd like to cry,’ I won-
der what he'd do. Call a policeman,
Ispose . . .”
Annie Laurie had come quite close
to him now: he glanced at her casual-
ly and when he did she felt the blood
color her face.
“Just as though he knew what I
was thinking!” Annie Laurie went on
disconsolately, as she turned the
corner.
She stopped a moment before a
shop window; it was a very tiny
shop with just enough glass to show
Boston ferns and some narcissus
blooming in a shallow bowl.
“He'd say ‘Would you rather have
violets today, Annie Laurie, or just
roses as usual?” -
“Anything I can do for you, miss?”
Annie Laurie started. She realized
she had stopped longer than she need
before this window.
“Yes, I should like a bulb,” she said,
boldly, “and some pebbles and a
very little bowl.”
“Forty-five, miss.”
Annie Laurie just had fifty cents
left and she realized with a pang that
it meant she would have no lunch to-
she hoped there would
be no delay with her pay envelope.
She snuggled her precious bulb un-
der her arm and made the journey
back to her room without further ad-
venture.
“It must have sun and it must have
water,” she said aloud as she set it in
the open window ledge.
She let the water drip over her
bulb and heard an irritated voice as-
cend from the regions below.
Annie Laurie peered down, and the
voice peered up, until she found her-
self looking into the very blue eyes
of the man she had passed.
“Oh, it’s you!” she gasped.
Then overcome at the betrayal of
her words, she pulled in her head. and
fn her embarrassment dislodged her
precious bulb. She heard it go rat-
tling down the areaway amid the sharp
clatter of her pebbles. ;
“Pll see what I can do,” a sym-
pathetic voice called up to her.
“Remember, Annie Laurie, how you
were brought up!” she warned her-
self.
When, five minutes later, a breath-
less young man with laughing blue
eyes presented her with a stubby
brown bulb, Annie Laurie, with
drooped lids that hid all the light of
her dancing eyes, answered primly,
“Thank you very much.”
That was all.
And Annie Laurie back in her room
was lonelier than ever.
“] know he’s nice,” she thought.
“He has eyes like little Bennie, and
his voice—and I shall just have to
go on the same as ever, dying of
loneliness, going down to the office in
the morning and coming back in the
evening, wishing in the meantime.”
And she did.
The ache in her heart was get-
ting harder to bear all the time, and
if it hadn’t been for the five dollars
she could send each week to a little
frame house in St. Petersburg, she
might have given up the struggle and
fled home.
One afternoon -she stopped before
the tiny shop and breathed in the
scent of trailing arbutus.
“I must have some!” she said.
The little, bushy, fragrant sprays
of sweet blossoms were tied in white
tissue before she asked, “And how
much is it, please?”
“Seventy-five.”
She searched in her pocket and she
felt in her purse, but all she could
find was fifty cents. Her cheeks burned
with embarrassment for another cus-
tomer in the shop came up to her.
Annie Laurie looked up into a pair
of very blue eyes.
“T believe you live on the floor above
me, and I believe I rescued your
bulb,” said the man of the eyes quiet-
ly, “and I think if I'm not mistaken
you're Annie Laurie Ware?”
“Oh, but how did you know?”
He did not tell her that anyone could
read a name on the letter box.
“IT know you've never done any-
thing like it before, spoken to a man
who hasn’t been introduced,” he ex-
plained, “and 1 hope you won't do
anything like it again. But I'm from
the South, and I know you are—and
I’m- desperately lonely—”
It was the one thing that could
have touched Annie Laurie Ware.
They stood quite still outside the
tiny shop, ald the man pleaded: “I
wonder if you’d let me get some
violets, a handful, or just a rose to
celebrate?”
“Roses,” Annie Laurie smiled, and
then as he darted into the shop she
repeated the formula to herself, “as
usual.”
They walked up the street together,
and the man said “Look!”
Annie Laurie gazed down from the
heights at the street that seemed al-
most like fairy street.
“New York is an enchanting place,
isn’t it?” the young man asked.
“It’s almest like a city of dreams,”
Annie Laurie answered tremulously.
The yourg man gave one swift un-
derstanding glance at her face before
they turned back.
“It is the city of my dreams—now!”
| he said.
THE GAME
The Moonbeams looked very bright
and happy gleaming from the sky.
“Don’t you want
us?’ they asked,
though they al-
ready knew the an-
swer to their ques-
tion.
“Of course 1
want you,” said
Mr. Moon, “and so
do the people.
Moonbeams are so
happy and ’ gay.
They dance and
they almost Seem
to sing.”
“We'll sing just
for you, Mr. Moon,”
they said.
And the Moon-
beams sang this
#iLet Me See?” song:
Oh, not when it's day,
Do we laugh and play.
But when it is night,
‘We shine and are bright.
We laugh and we sing,
We love everything.
We love Mr. Moon,
And soon, very soon,
We're going to shine,
For a party of nine.
“That’s a wonderful song,” said Mr.
Moon, “but might I ask how you're
going to shine for a party of nine?
“Did you say that just for
rhyme?”
“We might have,” said the Moon-
beams, “but we didn’t have to this
time.
“There are nine people going on
the sleighride which you and we are
going to accompany.
There are eight children and a nice,
good-natured farmer daddy who seems
to be enjoying the ride as much as the
children.”
“Let me see,” said Mr. Moon, as he
blinked one eye.
“The moon is very bright tonight,”
said the children, “It will be wonder-
ful for our ride. See how the moon-
beams dance, too!”
“Well, well,” said Mr. Moon, ‘we
certainly must keep on going along
with them. They've noticed us and
they seem to like us.”
So the Moon seemed to shine more
brightly than ever—even such a high
creature as he enjoyed a little extra
praise.
It does almost every ome good to
hear something nice once in awhile.
“They seemed pleased to see us
dance,” said the Moombeams. “We'll
give them a special treat of our own
game—our moonbeam game of tag.”
“Do,” said Mr. Moon. “They’ll en-
joy that.”
So the Moonbeams danced and
played tag with each other, and Mr.
Moon beamed, too, and shone for all
he was worth. :
“The Moon is so bright,” the chil-
dren kept saying, as they went bound-
ing over the snow in their long sleigh
which was filled with straw.
“It almost seems as if I conld catch
a moonbeam,” said one child.
The Moonbeams went 80 near the
children they thought they could
catch them, but the Moonbeams got
away in time, for they said they could
not be caught by really real children,
the
beams.
The snow was so soft and white
and sparkling. The snowflakes which
had fallen to the ground, said to the
Moonbeams:
“Make us look like glorious dia-
monds and glittering jewels. We want
to appear royal
and noble and
beautiful before
the children.”
And the Moon:
beams did as the
snowflakes had
asked. What a daz-
zling night it was
as they rode along
over the snow with
the Moon, the
Moonbeams and
the children of
old King Snow as
their companions.
When the chil
dren reached the
home of the little
boy “who had giv-
en the party, and
were having some
delicious hot supper, every child in
turn said:
“I almost caught a Moonbedm”
Outside the window the Moonbeams
were still dancing and looking at the
children and laughing:
“They
Catch Us.”
Couldn't
# “They couldn’t catch us, they
couldn’t catch wus. They .couldn’t
catch us.”
And the Moon answered them and
said: “No, little Moonbeams, in your
game of moonbeam tag you can only
catch each other, and even then it's
very hard.
“But what a glorious game you do
play!”
Feminine Inquisitiveness
Among the group at the pier every
day was a selfish little girl of ten
who extravagantly admired the young
man who swam and dived so splen-
didly.
With true feminine inquisitiveness
She asked: “Do you live with your
mother, or are you a father?”
or they wouldn't be really real moon-:

THE RAG DOLL
It was a little time before Christ.
mas, and Judy dreamed that she was
up in Santa’s workshop.
There she saw tables and tables and
tables with half-made toys upon them.
She saw huge barrels and packing
cases and toys being taken off. She
saw Santa’s huge pack which he wore
upon his back on Christmas Eve as
he went to visit all the boys and girls
in the world.
She saw toys which were all finished
and were standing up by each other
in rows, which hadn’t been put away
for the great Christmas season yet.
There were Teddy Bears and woolly
lambs, little pink rag pigs and there
were trains of cars and boats and air-
planes.
There were games and balls and
tops. There were sailor boy suits.
There were whistles and all sorts of
toy animals. There were dolls all
beautifully dressed with china faces
and china bodies.
There were some with rag bodies
but china faces, and there were others
—oh, there were so many of all sorts
she simply couldn’t look at them all.
She felt dizzy looking at so many.
And she saw Santa Claus, his red coat
lying on a chair nearby, working for
all he was worth, making toy after
toy, painting one, putting it together,
fixing it so it would be all right.
There he was, his white beard hang-
ing way down on his chest and his
eyes—well, she had never seen such
eyes before.
They were laughing!
laughing.
Yes, actually
She saw those blue eyes of
his twinkle and—she saw them laugh.
Oh, how happy he looked.
And yet
Oh, How She Would Love That Doll.
how busy he was. He no sooner fin-
ished one toy than he made another.
Goodness! How quickly he worked.
Now he was making—what was it—
could it be?
Judy held her breath. This was al-
most too exciting!
Yes, he was actually making a doll
—the very sort she wanted—a nice
rag doll with a painted face, a doll to
hug and love.
Oh, how she would love that doll
Santa Claus was making.
Then it seemed as thought the shop
were far away and the toys grew less
and less clear, and the last she saw
was an arm of a rag doll being fin-
ished while Santa smiled as though to
say:
“You'll do, little doll, you'll do.”
Then she heard her mother calling
her to get up. “It’s late,” her mother
said.
“Oh mother,” Betty began, “I had
such a dream. I dreamed I saw Santa
Claus in his shop.
“Oh, he was the most beautiful old
man I ever saw in all my life—and
yet he wasn’t exactly old—no, not old
at all. :
“Oh mother, you should have seen
his eyes! How they laughed.
“And he was making—think, mother
-—he was making a rag doll. The very
sort of a doll I hope he will give me
for Christmas.
“Do you suppose he may give me
that doll, motggr? And I saw the
whole shop and all the toys—and
everything.
“Oh, I hope Santa Claus brings me
a rag doll.”
. Now the Dream King had sent this
dream to Judy, and it was as real as
a dream can be.
But it was absglutely real that
Santa Claus was making a rag doll
and that that rag doll was going to be
found on Christmas morning in Judy's
stocking.
For the Dream King had told Santa
Claus it was what she wanted and
that was why Santa Claus had smiled
so when he had finished making the
doll—because he knew how the doll
was going to please Judy, and how
dearly she would love it.
Love and Kisses to All
A woman had taken her three-year-
old boy into the voting booth while
her husband voted in that adjoining.
When they met after casting their bal-
lots, the little chap said to his father:
“Daddy, mother must love all the
politicians.”
“How is that?” the father wanted
to know.
“Well, I saw her mark kisses after
a lot of their names.”
