STRIKES

When you go oown and pay quarter 10 see ball game you (unless you are a kicker) want to see the home club win; but when you get seated and be- game, tell you it's horribly tantallz- ing to see your favorites come up ana '.strike out" Well, the Waterburys $ this year are not striking out as of ten as they did last season; on the con trary, they are climbing up the ladder and it looks now as if they intend to go to the top. It's comical to hear the littl0< <rascaIs who steal in (either over oI<under the fence) say, "There's no ~fies on the Waterburys."

Remem- Der you enjoy life much better during the summer months if you keep the flies on the outside of the house, and our screens will do that business to perfection. We still continue to give we'll made cap with one pound or our warranted fresh, nice tasting cof- fee. No wonder we are getting rid of a large number of them.
