The red haired leader esSayed to pitch for his boys" and with the exception of a single and a three bagger, secured in the first inning, the Colts never got even the Semblance of a hit. On the other hand, South-paW Randy and his smile were the all impor- tant factors for the visit OTIS, and while in seven of the eight turns the locals took at bat Bangy had the Pirates guessing, that other time was sufficient to allow Shreveport to capture the game. The locals found him in the third inning for four hits, which netted an equal number of runs, a wild heave by Page cost ing one of the tallies.

-Four Bad Snakes.

Snakes are much maligned creatures. although they are, for the most part, of considerable value to man. as they live almost entirely on insects and the small rodents that are injurious to crops. Of all the snakes that inhahit North America there are really only four that are dangerous. These are the copperhead. the moccasin. the rat' tlesnake and little snake of southern Georgia and Florida known as the coral snake Of course there are a number of different species of the rat tier (about thirty, but they inhabit different parts of the country and are all to be known from the fact that they rattle" when approached. All the rest of our snakes are absolutely harmless. and their bite is to be less feared than that of mosquito. Scrap Book.

But if he would shake and not be shaken. grip and not be gripped. taking care always to squeeze the hand of his adversary as hard as the adversary squeezed him, he would suffer no inconvenience by it. l can generally anticipate strong grip from strong man. l take advantage of him by being quicker than he and seiZing him by the tips of his fingers This Is stated playfully. but it is all true
