HAPPY DAY FOR
CHILDREN

"Aw," said shock-hea ded kid as
he watched the cheering. screech-
ing crowds go by, 81 wouldn't go to
that picnic nohow. Too many
girls"
He was abiding to the children's
picnic at Natatorium park given
to-day by the Children's Playground
association. But he was only one
of the very few that were not on
the way to the picnic. Also he'll
have different ideas regarding too
many girls" a few years later.
Eight streetcars loaded with the
happy little boys and girls went to
the park this morning, and 200
gallons Of ice cream mhad been pro-
vided and there won't be any of it
wasted The Lady Enakops put up
the lunches and there's nothing
skinny about them. The park is
open to the children all day, with
all sorts of contests and amuse-
ments. A list of prizes has been
furnished to add to the sport. There
will be the annual baby show, of
course, and that is an event all by
itself.
Every precaution has been taken
to insure the safety of the children
and to furnish them the best kind
of a time.

Of
BOTCH WORK

Editor, The Press-Theoretically
we are bound together in confed-
Grafton for mutual benefit and con-
trOlled in matters that effect the
whole people by city council and
commissioners, both executive and
Legislative. Are we selecting these
trustees carfully enough? Have
they an indexed past to which we
can turn? Is it frenzied finance
past, with an uncertain future? 1t
must be in some cases, If We judge
by the outside influence welded by
selfish individual interests to the
detriment of the entire city.
1t Is hopeful sign that some of
our citizens are taking the initia-
tive against this selfish individual
and corporal influence which places
blight upon the material welfare
and moral growth of our city.
There can be no results however de-
sirable by selfish corporal and in
dividual interests of sufficient rela-
tive Importance to warrant its ac-
quirement at the expense of public
interests. The only alternative Is
for the common people to take the
initiative and call out some of these
old fixtures and get in new mate
rial.
On a broad line of solution this
is a necessary preliminary to an
effective dealing with those who
have sufficient pull not only to hold
office from year to year, barring
others from their share of public
favors, but assisting others not only
to disregard public interests, but in
breaking the city's laws. Especial
ly such glaring affronts as are seen
on Montgomery av. just east of
Division ST., where private interests
are using the sidewalk and part of
the street. Months back l made
complaint to then Commissioner
ONO and Councilman Phillips and
no results.
A botch was made of the regrade
of Division st. The sewer or drain
age stopped All the property in
the immediate vicinity was flooded
and damaged. Councilman Phillips
of this ward was repeatedly warn
ed of the danger, but either through
neglect or inability did not remedy
the evil and damage was refused
myself and Mr.. Bostrum, who was
turned out of his home for two
weeks or more
The flimsy excuse made by Cor
poration Counsel Hamblen was that
complaint was not made soon
enough, and it took nearly five
months to get this excuse up. J. S.
Payne.

HULEN'S HEAD
PULLS EN- OUT

Vic Holm, the star City league
pitcher who was tried out by the
Indians, was like a three-minute
racehorse-just fast enough to
lose. Mike Lynch's men hammer
ed Holm at opportune times. The
game was we'll theirs when Hall,
the young pitcher who shows con-
siderable class, allowed a couple of
hits that really didn't cost any
thing. Then Danny Shea roasted
the youngster; next Jack Burnett
shot off his mouth to him and then
Bresino told him how to throw
them. All the while the "big talk"
was coming in from center field.
w-whew-whur-rup! "
That was what Mike Lynch's ad-
vice sounded like Hall started to
remove his glove and take to the
bench but thor ht better of it.
On the other hand, how differ
ent is Capt. Billy Hulen's style. Vic
Holm hadsa bad short session and
Bill shodts: you've got seven
-~S6od men behind you O. dog. Grit
yer teeth and stay with 'em!"
That's what a young pitcher
needs. A pat on the back does won
ders sometimes.
And this Is Just what's winning
the Spokane games-Hulen is
there with the fatherly advice all
the time and i roast only for
punctuation. He has trained the
present team from poor perform
ers to good fast ones. And he didn't
call them any names to do it.,
either.
But about the ball game: We
won but only after mighty strug-
gle that has come to be known as
"Spokaneing. 1t was the eighth
inning; all around was still and
quiet and the score stood 4 to in
Tacoma's favor. Then Bill Hulen
made one of his famous moves"
He pulled Holm out and sent Chan
der to bat for him. Chandler had
been taking it easy while West was
breaking In on third base and do
ing mighty well, too. Chandler
was strong and confident and just
aching to get in the game. So
when Bill sent him in in the eighth
inning he slammed out a warm
bingle to center and got to second
on bad throw by Danny Shea.
Then Jack Clynes put one back of
second base and Chan. Skinned for
third, arriving ahead of scheduled
time. That was when the "big
noise from center field came in to
help roast Hall, who had been
pitching splendid ball. He's only a
youngster and of course the going
up sign was hung out in conse-
quence. Bill Hulen drew an amble
to first and the bases were full.
Then the pinch hitting kid, Johnny
Mackin, connected for a single that
scored Chandler and Clynes and
tied the score.
In the ninth and tenth 1t was a
question of gameness and Spokane
won in the tenth. Killilay was sent
in in Holm's place, as Chambers
taking the bat had disqualified
Holm anyway. Killilay was in
great form and blanked the Tigers
in the ninth and tenth. In Spo-
kane's half errors by Kellacky and
Burnett put Mackip and James on
the sack. Kippert flew out AID
Stevens drew a pass. West then
waited for four balls and Mackin
was forced in with the winning
run. 1t was winning the game by
herding the Tigers into a hole and
waiting outside with the sack. Billy
Hulen etc etc
