BOYS VICTORIOUS
SCORE Two GAMES
DICKINSON vs. A

a.. . "a. ~
The Dickinson baseball team played
a return game with Beach Of Sunday,
easily wrestling a victory with scores
standing II to 2 in their favcr.
Many fans who had plann 1 TO ac-
company the team to the Golden Valley
metropolis were disappointed as the
special train which was being planned
for was taken of. A goodly number,
however, went up on No. S. Saturday
Night and returned rejoicing with some
Of the Golden Valley coin.
Dickinson started right after the
Beach bunch the frat inning. when a
succession of hits sent Davis across the
plate for the first score. There was no
let up in each succeeding inning. the
Dickinson boys hit the ball steadily.
Ehrmantraut, the Beach pitcher, who
did such good work in the game at Dick
inson, was forced to retire in the 9th in
ming and Tower took his place but could
not hold down Dickinson's hard hitteFs.
Nelson, who was on the mound for
Dickinson, proved an enigma to
Beachites and was invincible throughout
the game. Beach had an aH-salaried
team but the manager would. do we'll
to bid one higher as they were compile
tely ~outciassed by the Stark county
seatmates.
It was a swat fest from start to
finish. Connolly got five singles, Clemeo
four and Davis. Dorfler and Nelson did
some heavy smuggling.

stenmother Of Mint JuIep.

Romance and poetry have delighted
to weave garlands with which to cele
brate and perpetuate the glory of the
blue grass in old Kentucky, famed for
its fine horses, beautiful women and

Kentucky has been designated as
the home of the mint julep, and its
colonies have become famous all over
the world for the easy and graceful
way in which they drink whisky with
a little dash of sugar and sprig OIL
two of mint in order, chiefly to over
come the necessity for large amount
of water in the beverage. The true
Kentuckian doesn't want his whisky
drowned.
1t transpires, however, that the real
home of the mint and the mint juler
is right here in Missouri, whose cror
of mint last year amounted to 1855
pounds, or enough to make 1,224,32(
