The Kind That IL Said to Create
Awkwardness.


Do we not all know the vulgarity of
that strained and excessive politeness
which is to intercourse what the straight
waistcoat tig tss stay stays and sno pinsnl,ng
Is checked, all freedom of speech, thought
and action withers under this excessive
formality as a pot-bound plant withers in
its narrow holding. Even graceful peo-
pie are made to feel awkward and we'll
bred people uncouth under this kline Of
excess or formal courtesy, while the ma
like lowers in a simoon-stitie for want of
fresh air and freedom, as erst those
wretched prisoners in the Black Hole of
Calcutta.
This exaggerated politeness-this stu
pendous amount of formality-is in reality
a yulgaTity. and when the perpetrators
of the iniquity are most content with
themselves then they are most lamentably
to blame-most strikingly deficient in the
true sense and understanding Of polite
ness. They are vulgar, not refined; affect
ed, NOT well bred; but they plume them
selves on having reached An eminence
beyond the power Of the ~groundlings to
attain.
This kind of vulgarity may sometimes
be found as a kind Of cancer imbedded in
the very tissues of family life. A sister
asks her sister to dinner. The inviter is
poor; the invited is well off. Incontinent-
~ the poorer one makes a royal feast for
the richer and puts the whole household
to Inconvenience, not TO speak of a
weeks short commons, for the sake OF
that false politeness and real vulgarity,
receiving her sister with due respect
The best respect would have been to
give her just the same simple family fare
of perhaps a Sunday or holiday complex
ion-Just a point or two here or there to
mark the difference between today and
the ordinary working week-a-day mon
otony. But this would not have suited
our high-polite hostess, who preferred jel-
lies and creams and entrees and savories
of doubtful materials and composite
conktc and Wipn from the ia njlV Ur0oarsS

The baseball players were at work

The season on the Marion grounds will
close with the series which began yester-
day between the Marion Field Club and
the West Side Field Gu for the cham
pionship. 1t will consist of three OF hve
games and the result of the opening game
was a win for Marion. Not satisfied with
securing the victory the Marions added
to the chagrin of the West Side players
by giving them a coat of whitewash. 1t
was a remarkably clever game and sharp
fielding was the feature. The Marions
had the advantage in batting, but weaker
at fielding. They were successful In WIN
ming, however, as they punched their hits
at the proper time. They scored six runs
in ALL, closing the game with three in the
ninth inning. With two men on bases
and two out Reilly made a home run.
The only members of the West Side team
tina could touch Hale's pitching were
Shea and Duryea, both of whom made
two hits. The score:-

The Klondike Bowling Club is in readi-
ness for work to begin on the alleys.

lively season on the smooth pine. The
club will BOWL on Geseller Verein alleys,
and at the initial meeting these officers
were elected:-George Bove. president; OF
to Brahm, captain; T. ~Joschonek, treas

The Arion Club alleys have been thor
oughly- ~overhauled and are in excellent
shape for the opening of the regular sea-
son. At the meeting of the Friday Night
Club, the condition was we'll tested, and
the member were well pleased with the
result. Some of the scores were:-Scher-

The North Hudson Cyclers are worked
up over bowling and intend that none
of the wheeling organizations in the
county shall lead them on the alleys.
They hay a very strong division to be-
gin with some of the best bowlers in the
upper end of the county being within the
ranks of the cyclers. At the last meet
