ton it is no longer necessary to hold a
vehement conversation to yourself at

"hellos" to you right away. The tele,
phone company has a new device for
attracting the attention of the girls
who help you talk.
Instead OF the old drop bar system.
there is a new contrivance of glass
bulbs, and when you ring up. a light
flashes up i'll one of those little bulbs,
of which there is a great long row in
front Of the switch operator. And the
light continues until you are answered.
Even if you should get cross waiting
for a dilatory citizen at the other end
and hang up your receiver. the little
light shines right on until you finally
do get an answer. When you are all
through it disappears.
On each bulb is a cabalistic sign
which says whether you are using a

vene, Vidi But No Vioi.

Last Sunday the town was agog
with baseball. Everybody and his
cousin came out to see the game be-
tween the st. Martinvllle Juniors and
the Abbeville boys. Over the bayou
in Dyan Mates field, a baseball
park had been laid out with lemonade
stands, gate keeper and all. There
was a big crowd but no bali game.
Why? Well that is hard to say.
Rather we won't undertake to say
whose was the fBult. st. Martin OBJ
jected to Scarborough pitching
claiming that they were TO play the
same team they played in st. Mar
tins. The Abbeville boys then
claimed St. Martin was trying to run
in a new catcher. So it was q long,
weary never-ending wrangle which
terminated in a refusal to play.
Now without attempting to place
the blame VI must say that public
opinion is that it was a very unfor-
tunate occurrence. Ihe most dis
agreeable feature OF the affair is that
people gave up their money to e q
game of ball. There was no game
and the money was not refunded. It
is true there would have been some
difficulty owing to the crowd, to give
back the money, as there were some
present who had not paid-but that
is all the more reason why the home
boys should have sacrificed their
pride and given the people some sort
Of an exhibition game, il not more
than 8 innings. Had they been
given "a little run for their money!
they would not have felt SO sore
about it.
