THE DINKEY BIRD.

In an ocean far out yonder.
Az all sapIent people know,
IL the land Of Wonder-WandeR
Whittier children love to go;
It's their playing, romping, swinging,
That giveth Joy to me,
While the Dinkey Bird goes singing
In the amfalula treel
There the gumdrops grow like cherries,
And taffy's thick as peas;
OAramels you pick like berries
When and where and how you please
Big red sugar plums are clinging
To the cliffs beside that sea
Where the Dinkey Bird is singing
In the amfalula tree!
So when children shout and scamper
And make merry all the day,
When there's naught to put damper
On the ardor of their play;
When I hear their laughter ringing,
Then I'm sure as sure can be
That the Dinkey Bird is singing
In the amfalula tree.
For the Dinkey Birds bravuras
And staccatos are so sweet,
His roulades, appoggiaturas
And robustos so complete,
That the youth Of every nation,
Be they near or far away,
Have especial delectation
In that gladstone roundelay.
Their eyes grow bright and brighter,
Their lungs begin to crow,
Their hearts get light and lighter
AID their cheeks are all aglow;
For an echo cometh bringing
The news to all and me
That tho Dinkey Bird Is singing
In the amfalula tree!
Yes, I'm sure you'd like to 60 there
To behold your feathered friend;
And 30 many goodies grow there
You would like to comprehend!
Speed, little dreams, your wingin9
To that land across the sea,
Where the Dinkey Bird Ia singing
In the amfalula tree!

victory over Oskaloosa, the fourth an
nual season of the Iowh State League
was, opened here under favorable cir
cum stances Monday afternoon. The
parade and other features preceding
the game, which ended by Mayor O.
L. Ingledue pitching the first ball,
served as a prelude to an unexcit'ing
game. h,
Some of the play OF both teams was
poor, some OF it was erratic, yet at
| the same time some Of it was brilliant
to- the point Of being sensational. The
good playing at times served to relieve
| the tediousness of the game which was
Slow. and which required almost two
hours in the playing.
Kennedy put in Herbert to pitch the
opening game, and barring his ten
dency to wildness he proved decidedly
effective and gave good account of
himself BY his wildness, tho, he adj
but gave the Quakers a start in the
opening Inning that might have been
a serious handicap. He first walked
Kensel, then famed Fleming, and hit
Patterson and Moody, filling the bases.
A wild pitch hit Sehafer!s bat, and the
ball roned- fair, Burg throwing out
Kensel at the plate. Patterson brought
| in the first score ON a passed ball. Os-
kaloosa scored once in both the. fourth
and fifth, both of the scores being due
to errors.
After the fifth inning the game pro-
crossed more rapidly, and only the
Quakers whom Herbert passed Were
able to get on the bases. Coates was
in the box for Oskaloosa, and in the
opening inning the locals went after
him for four runs, two of which We're
earned. Two bases on balls made the
getting of these runs easier. Carpen-
ter,s clean two Ibase hit to left center
was the stirring feature Of the hitting
of this inning.

Resurfacing Of East Main Street
Before Council, But Action
Is Deferred
Mnxop SpposEs THE PLAN
MAYOR OPPOSES THE PLAN
Chairman Packer, Of the Streets and
Alleys Committee, Introduces Reso-
luton Calling for Expense TO Come
Out of Public Funds-Mayor Believes
Property Owners Should Pay.

The res,,rfacing of the East Main
street paving, which is the worst piece
of brick work ever done In the city,
and has been In a bad condition for
some time, came before the council at
the regular meeting Monday night, in
a resolution presented by Chairman
Packer, of the streets and alleys COM
mitbee. The resolution, called for the
work to be done at the puaaics ex-
pense, and met with Immediate oppo-
sition on the part Of the mayor.
East Main street was laid about nine
years ago with Boone brick. It will
be remembered that the council at that
time rejected the brick but finally con-
sented to it's use after "a petition
signed by property owners, asking that
the brick be used, was presented The
brick proved too soft, and with the
heavy traffic during the summer sea-
son the paving did not stand the wear
ordinarily expected.
Mayor Ingledue opposed the plan Of
making the Improvement at public ex-
persse on the ground that the city had
no such right to tax al property own
els for the Improvement. The mayor
argued that the Life Of paving was
short enough at BEST and IL the city
established a precedent of using public
funds to nepave the different streets
as the paving disintegrated. there
would never be any funds available for
the work on unpaved streets. where
che property owners were just as much
entitled to the benefits. so long as they
were paying their portion of the tax
levied for street Improvement. The
mayor cited South Second avenue as
another street that was In need Of re-
bound to do the work. in the same way
IL precedent on East Main were es-
tablishe
Councilman Deyine took up the arr
gument in defense of Mr.. Packers mo-
ton insisting that the property owners
had paid for the paving once, but that
the public had worn 1t out, and he
thought that 1t was now right for the
general public to repair the street.
Councilman Gregory believed that
the whole issue hinged on the action
of the property owners. II they had
promised former city council to as
sumo the risk in accepting Boone
brick instead Of a vitrifed brick he
thought they ought to- take their medi-
cine now. He moved to defer for one
week pending an investigation OF the
status Of the property owner and the
resolution was deferred. "a.

only absentees at the Mondaay night
