with Wilkes-Barre will be June 2, at

There is every prospect of a perma-

ought to have enough sense of honor
to keep from doing such things, but it
seems that some are yet greatly in
need of kindergarten training.
1t seems as though Manager Kann is
meeting with discouragements on ev-
cry side. This week he saw Secretary
Mahy, of the Young Mems Christian
association, about securing the Ath-
letic park for the game with Lacka-
wanna on the coming Saturday. Mr..
Mahy stated very plainly that he
would not under any considerations
allow the high school to use the park
until the bill owed him by the school
is paid up. In taking this stand Mr..
Mahy is undoubtedly doing the right
thing and is carrying on the matter
in a strict business manner, neverthe-
less it is a pity that the base ball team
should suffer for the outlay of the foot
ball team, but as it now stands there
is nothing that can be done but to grin
and bear it, 1t is no doubt owinS to
the fact that the park cannot be used
today that the game with Lackawanns
will not take place. Thus the high
school loses the chance of testing their
ability against that of Lackawauna.
Thursday afternoon a number of the
boys from the school Journeyed to
Bellevue for the purpose of playing a
base ball team from that place. 1t hap
pened that the boys from the high
school were we'll supplied with gloves
and generously loaned them to their
opponents. While one of the players
was retiring from the field, leaving
glove on the base, two boys whose
faces were hid from observation be-
hind a large quantaity of coal dirt,
with the stealth of a fox crept up an
slipped the glove under their coats and
retired.
There is one boy in the sophomore
class who seems to have great love
for flowers. Ever since nature has

As everybody knows, nobody is ever
satisfied with the handicap bestowed
on him by the committee. He always
murmurs about it, This Is the occa-
sion when he has his innings. Every
player is to be allowed to place his
own handicap on himself. The one
who guesses the net score nearest the
best gross score is the winner, and
there will be no end of fun in the con-
test and its results. The players are
all requested to be at the club early.
Next Saturday will be the match
with Wilkes-B Barre, when an unlimited
number of men may be entered, our
own club furnishing as many contest
ants as the visitors. The next game

HOW "BAlDY" UNLOADS.

The Biggest Elephant In Captivity is
Pretty Cute In spite OF His Size.
Everybody who can will be interested
in watching Ringling's circus unload on
the morning of the 2nd. An interesting
sight is described as follows by the Sioux
City Journal:
What is said to be the largest ele.
phant known to be in captivity is owned
by the Ringing Bros. and is designated
among circus men as "Old Baldy." !"
One of the interesting sights incident to
the unloading of circus train is the
performance of "Old Badly" in getting
out of his huge car.
1.-The other elephants in this remark.
able herd of twenty rare specimens
of Asiatic and African origin, in vacating
their travelling compartments walk
down heavy gangplank that inclines
from the car door to the ground. The
car doors are ten feet high, which, of
course, makes the big elephants stoop to
get through as they step out upon the
descending plank "Old Baldy" is so
tall and so wide, however, that he can.
not get out of the car door until the
gangplank is taken away. He there
fore calmly awaits until all uhis travel
ing mates have walked the plank and
are grouped together, awaiting the
coming of their leader.
"Then it is that "Old Badly" gets in
motion and proves that he knows a
thing or two about the solution of math.
ematical problems. He drops to his
knees, and, wriggling his great body
forward, slowly manages to get his
front feet out and upon the ground.
The floor of the car is about five feet
above the ties of the roadway, but this
does not keep Badly" from reaching
the solid foundation of earth without
mishap or tying delay. Once his fore
feet are on the ground, he draws his
body forward, allowing his hind legs to
drag along the car floor. In this way
he is soon able to get one hind foot out,
aud the rest is easy

An Ideal Climate,

The first white man to set foot on
Utah soil, Father Silvestre Velez de
Escalante, who reached the Great Salt
Lake on the 23rd day of September,
1915, wrote in his diary: Here the
climate is so delicious, the air so balmy,
that it is pleasure to breathe by day
and by night" The climate of Utah is
one of the richest endowments of nature.
On the shores of the Great Salt Lake
especially-and for fifty miles therefrom
in every direction-the climate of eli
mates is found. To enable persons to
participate in these scenic and climatic
attractions and to reach the famous
health, bathing and pleasure resorts of
Utah, the Union Pacific has made a rate
TO Ogden and Salt Lake city of one fare
for the round trip, plus 81 90, from Mis-.
