spirit OF cordialisy abounds among her
citizens.

The boys OF the Blackfoot base bal
nine are wearing the badge OF 'Invin
cibles." This Is the only excuse Offered
the public for not adding q game Of
ball to the Blsckfoot program on the
Fourth to interest visitors. Telegram
were sent broadcast to neighborin,
clubs inviting a match, but none cam,
10 take up the gauntlet.
A gentleman is readily recognized b.
his department in the presence OF la
dies. Some Of our boys should make ;
note OF this when engaged in playing
ball and ladies are present witnessing
the game. Silence Is sometimes golden
Better silence than the utterance OF
word to occasion criticism from an,
lady OF your acquaintance.
