PlNGPONG AND TENNIS.

~HERE'S hardly any difference, 80
far as / can see,
u Betwixt the game of tennis and the
game of double "p."
While pingpong is table game and ten
mis- of the field,
Both games are played with balls and
net; the players rackets wield
But that cannot be said to be the point. I
must admit;
While tennis is warmlSh game 1t seems
pingponS is 1T!
Yet since there's no great difference, will
pingpongs name be Dennis,
And when the heated term comes on will
folks go back to tennis?
Somehow there seems to be a fad for
toadying to name;
We'd rather have a crazy thing, though
it is all the same.
Just hustle up zibberz1pp instead of old
croQuet
And down we'll fall and howl for zibber-
zipp most any day.
It isn't that the game is changed, but it S
because the rose
Called by the name we've learned to love
is in it's dying throes;
Hence. if some chap would dub bridge
whist by name of zennys jennys,
Thered be a great big funeral, just like
there was of tennis.
It's human nature, I suppose; the girl
that's christened Liz
Feels that she's handicapped, of course
and l suppose she is.
We never hear of barber shops; tonsorial
parlors they
Have come to be entitled in this title
crazy day.
But what I started out to say was,
through the heated spell
Will we continue pingpong or will tennis
do as well?
In other words, as I have said, will ping
pong's name be Dennis,
And will we gradually come to trif1e some
with tennis?

Obituary.

On Friday morning last occurred
the death of another of the old resi-
dents of Grant county, who for
some months has been in declining
health. Mr.. VIM. Belscamper was
born in Germany Dec. 25, 1925, and
at the age of "a came to America
and settled in Grant county where
he was successful in the accumula-
ton Of health of habits of industry
and .conomy. He was a farmer
and wrested from the soil sufficient
for himself and family and exported
a large balance for the benefit of
others. He was married to Miss
Christina Brick and eight children,
six sons and two daughters, were
born to this union, all of whom sur
vive. IN early life he united with
the German Presbyterian church
and was active in the work of that
church, contributing largely to the
erection of the structure that still
stands on it's original foundation, al
though unoccupied at the present
time. A few weeks ago it was no
ticed that his health was rapidly de-
clining and each day marked an adj
vance in feebleness and he was TAX
en- to the home of his son Henry,
where everything was done to pro-
long his life but the messenger of
death came to announce the release
of the imprisoned spirit and on Fri
day morning his spirit passed out to
be with God.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted at the home of Henry Bells
camper 1 o'clock Sunday and SER
mon preached in the Hurricane
church at 8 o'clock by the Rev. T. J.
Brown and interment followed in
the cemetery opposite the German
Presbyterian church.
Mr. Belscamper had attained the
ripe old age of rs years, months
and IA days. Sometime after the
death of his first wife, which occur
red in the year 1883, he was married
to his new sorrowing widow, Miss
Lucina Walker, whose health was
such as not to permit her to attend
his funeral.
