 Great Burlington Bosh
 That defeat of the Canaan team was as big blow to them as it was when Gloversville came hero and defeated the Great Barringtons. Tho Canaan peoplo had begun to think that they had the fastest team playing the game and some of the people it is said bet their money while laboring under that impression. Great Harrington correspondent of the Pittsfield Journal.
 The above is the mildest of several references this correspondent has made to the Canaan team since the Canaan Great Harrington game. The fact that Great Harrington went no license, is having serious effect upon him. It has soured his formerly amiable disposi- tion and he seems to be taking it out" on Canaan AS matter of fact the Ca, naan people had never supposed they had professional team nor have the Canaan players at any time been afflicted with "swelled head" The team has been organized but few weeks and has played wonderfully fast game considering this fact. The allegation that Canaanites bet on their team in the game with Great Harrington is the most ridiculous assertion this Berkshire news scribbler has yet made and re. quires no denial from THE NEWS or the Canaan boys. Canaanites don't let when they know beforehand that their team is outclassed.

Now approaches the season when the lat dweller picks up his daily paper, turns to the Country Board" depart ment of the classified advertisements and reads what Mrs. John Jones of Johnson's Corners says about the fresh eggs, pure milk, toothsome butter, vari- ety of vegetables expansive lawn, ex- eellent boating, bathing and fishing
 large airy rooms, labsence of mosquitoes, etc.. etc., ad lib, at Fenced Inn Farm. !" In fancy he smells the blossoms on the fruit trees, sees the green grass and hears the singing birds. Then he grasps his pen and engages board dur ing July, either at $7.oo per for a room with view of the onion patch or at $1O per for room affording clear and un- obstructed squint at the lilac trees in the front yard and the turnpiks leading to Smithville. That reference to the pure milk and cream, brand new eggs, butter considerably inside the age limit, bhe opportunity to soak deceased angle worm in the clean, clear, sparkling brook running through the 'back med der," and to cut up other didoes incident to an outing in the country, stir within him desire, too strong to be resisted, to hike from the busy marts of trade to this restful spot. And the realization when he reaches the farm. Somehow or other, the reality don't usually cor respond exactly with what his minds eye saw before he came. The butter is there. the eggs are there, the vegetables, milk. etc., all are there; he hasn't been deceived in any way but there is mys- terious discrepancy between anticipa- tion and realization. Nevertheless he goes back home feeling that he's had a good time and one year later he is again found reading the advertisements which appearunder the head Country Board"
