Notes on the Game.

Twas great game.
We're feeling better thank you.
Did you get your moneys worth?
Williehan played a great game at
right.
Hallowell people saw good game,
even if they did not win.
Nichols may not be made of India
rubber, but he certainly acted like it
out on first, yesterday.
Gilley rather got the laugh on the
Hallowell supporters with his two
Dagger in the 10th, after they had given
him the shout in the earlier part Of
the game.
There was just one thing the matter,
yesterday. There was a good lot of
foolish kicking by certain players dur
ing the game. 1t is to be supposed that
this is done as good baseball policy, as
some players think they will get the
big eEd of the decisions with the semi
professional umpire by liberal kicking,
and they say it has worked pretty well
sometimes in the Trolley League. But
when AGO or 800 people go to a ball game
it isn't altogether pleasant to listen to
a continual kick from one or two men
who are neither eloquent nor witty. 1t
ought to be stopped.

Prof Il. X. Jones' librarian of the Uni

In opening. Prof. Jones said that the
library was one of the three most i'm
rortant educational agencies of COM
munity. the other two being the school
and the church. and he spoke of the
relation of each to the community.
especially that of the library. on which
he dwelt to some length. Among other
things he said. also, that 1t was the
ideal of the librarian to have every
man. woman and child in commune

and recreation. Prof. Jones address
