PROGRESS WON
FROM OCTAGON
Hot Ball Game for Silver
Trophy.
LOSERS SMALL BUT GAME
Fought Manfully in Every Round and
Were Only Defeated by

The feature of the annual outing and
picnic OF the Sunday school division of
the Washington Hebrew Congregation,
held at Chesapeake Beach yesterday,
was the ball game between the Progress
and Octagon teams for the silver trophy
presented by the members of the board
of the local synagogue.
After nine innings of good. hard play
the game went TO Progress, to T.
but up TO the last round the Octagon
boys never gave UP the idea of win
ming, and the last man at bat famed
the air as enthusiastically as the first
one had.
Man for man, the Progress players
are larger and outclass the Octagon
players, bat the pluck and earnestness
with which the latter go into a game
is most commendable.
Progress Began Early.
In the first inning Price and Fischer
scored for Progress. Octagon could do
nothing until the fourth, when Marx
got a punky single and after stealing
second and third, got past the plate on
Lansburg's drive. Lansburg was caught
mapping, and the next two were easy
outs Progress also got busy in this
inning and scored three times, and one
more in the following inning gave a
total of six runs.
In the sixth Octagon got busy and
showed it was out after the cup. Marx
and Bear scored. but there were two
out and Eiseman after getting to first
on an error was caught between bases.
One more tally was added in the eighth
and in the ninth no one reached first.
Max Fischer presented the team with
the cup. He made a few remarks in
which he congratulated the boys for
their victory and wished them success
in the contest next year. as the cup
does not become the property of either
team until it has been won three times:

Helr the Cause.

In response to our call for aid to the
Southern Cotton Growers Association,
| Messrs. D. B. Davis, j. w. Broadway
and S. A. Hunter of ST. Paul paid to us
one dollar each. This is the first money
we have received for the purpose, and
we hope it will not be the last. Now is
the time for I'LL the farmers
to show whether or not they appreciate
the efforts being made for them, and
the little mite asked of them should be
forthcoming without any urging:
If some one would so among the peo-
ple to collect these contributions Clar-
endon would send in her share in short
order, but there is no one, except the
appointed township collectors, and they
do not seem TO be willing to spare the
time. We have offered to receive
apv contributions and TO acknowledge
the same through these columns. CLAIR
endon county should contribute not less
than $500 to help President +. D.
Smith carry on the fight he has so
nobly waged. He cannot fight without
ammunition, and in this war the ammu-
milton needed is money. Every man,
white and black is enlisted in this great
struggle, and we must stand by our
leaders.
Every farmer, merchant and banker
should take an interest IN collecting sub
scriptions for this fund and we urge a
hearty response to this appeal for aid.
The association treasury is exhausted,
and we know that unless the people
come forward and give help the work
can't go on. The question to determine
is, shall our leaders be starved into sub
mission. or shall thew be sustained and
strengthened to continue the war:
The plan to collect this money
through township collectors has proven
a failure, and in order that this county
will be enabled to do her duty, we
again ask that contributions be sent
direct to US, and we will acknowledge
them throug gh these columns. We want
by the next issue Of THE TINES to
publish nice list of contributions, and
if the merchants of Manning, Summer
ton, Pinewood, ST. Paul, Paxville, AIco
lu, Foreston, Turbeville, New Zion, ,and
other places will get a move on them
we will succeed in sending to the asso-
citation nice sum OF money.
There is another class of citizens
who should give practical demonstra-
ton of their affections for the people.
We mean that class who are always
in the lime!ight during a political cam
paien, the men who want and receive
political honors. they should be very
active in securing and giving contri-
buttons for this great cause. Let the
farmers of Clarendon watch The
TINES and see which of the political
aspirants are found missing from the
contributors to the fund to aid the Cot
ton Growers Association TO force
the price of cotton up.

An anonymous note sent to the edl-
tor of THE TINES asking that he give
an expression Of his views upon the
question, whether an editor must ad-
here 10 u principle, Or can he be free
lance and ignore principle:" AS rule,
we pay no attention TO ANONYMOUS
notes, preiering to know who it is that
is communicating with US, but in this
case, we will deviate far enough to say,
the question propounded to US is one,
that at this time, and under present
circumstances we do not care to argue,
as in our opinion, it refers 10 a matter
of difference between those we are not
interested in, and therefore we prefer
they shall settle their own troubles
without our counsel. We are conduct
ing The TINES, and doing our best to
make a success of it, and it keeps us
busy.
