no THE PANS.

Marion fans during the entire
season should remember:
If you want a pennnnt stand by
the Lime Burners when they arc
defeated. When they win they do
mol need it.
II you want your team to win,
fight for them when they are be-
hind. Ym do not want your team
TO be cutters and they exyect the
sare by you.
Go after the man that loafs or
sulks. The man that makes an err
ror is doing his best.
Do not tel a ball player you
have Eoney up on the game, for
many who bet are the worst knock
ers when they lose and the players
do not get your money if you win.
Do net yell take him ont"
when the opposing team bunehes a
few hits on pitcher. That will
not improve his pitching.
Let all THE players pull for ev-
cry man while he is playing on the
team. If he is not right he will
not be your guest long. Fans
join in.
DO not knock player to the
manager. You are only telling him
he does not know his business.
Last, but not least, do not en-
courage the opposing team. Your
boys do not get it away from home.
