SATURDAYS BALL GAME
Mineral Point High School Defeats
Linden High School, 60.


Our high school baseball boys re-
trieved their loss of week ago in the
game here last Saturday between
Mineral Point and Linden.
From the beginning the boys went
after the game in decidedly deter
mined manner. which meant victory
if victory was possible. The line up
was somewhat different than a week
ago at Linden, the weak spots being
remedied as far as possible and the
team work was almost excellent, every
body doing their best and only two
errors were registered.
Brewer did the twirling for the home
team and though securing only three
strike-outs had only three hits made
off him, his support being very good.
Baker for Linden managed to fool
seven of our batters but total oil
eight hits were gathered off him and
in times when most needed.
The next game will be played here
next Saturday against the Darlington
boys and good fast game is assured,
as Darlington as well as Mineral
Point is out for the championship.
So if you want to see a good game
come up and also be prepared to root,
shout, blow horns Or anything to
make a noise and help the boys on to
another victory.

II Is tiresome, WORKOUT theme
and you are wishing against your

TO It,
Stop and think how few great men
or women in any field OF art were
independent OF 1t. The phrase, Ne
cessity is the mother OF invention"
applies to art as well as to mechan-
les. The average artist. whatever be
ais mode OF expression. is inclined to
be IA idler and dreamer. If he were
not spurred on by dire need he would
dream wonderful things and accom-
plish little.
However you may feel you are pros
tituting your art by having to employ
1t as pot-boiler, remember you are
keeping all your abilities and activi-
ties alive and in use. Though you
may do five pieces of work you do
not care for. you may do sixth which
is great. That sixth you could not
have created except by being In con
slant practice.
You might have dreamed IL for
years and continually postponed the
actual labor necessary to its compile

toned to create as soon as an Idea
came TO you, your great work was
executed.
Necessity is true friend TO art. II
is ungrateful and ungenerous to be-
rate her.
