Last Friday evening the basket ball
team from Sedgwick played the high
school team here at the opera house
and lost to the home team by the score
of IA to q. Though the visitors had
a shade the better in team work they
are not the goal throwers that the
local team has and for this reason per-
haps was their greatest reason for not
running up larger score. On Mon
day the local team went to Julesburg
and returned victorious, defeating the
Julesburg team by score of 90 to IA.
This coming Saturday they will go to
Sidney where they will play a second
team of the high school. -Chappell

The village board after accepting
Marshal McAvoy's resignation, ap-
PORTED Mr.. Avery marshal and Walt
Nye, night watchman, with the same
power that the village marshal has.
He is now on duty. A night officer is
something that a town needs a great
deal more than day man and the
boards action in this respect will
receive the endorsement of our busi-
ness men, who will probably be asked
to contribute small amount each
month to help defray the expense of
the same. When asked to subscribe
be as liberal as you can and let us continue
the service of watchman indefinitely.

CAUGHT BALLS FROM
TALL MONUMENT
Billy Sullivan FrOze tOFaSt
Travelling Sphere.

Washington, August Chilly Sal
Ivan, star catcher of the Chicago
American League club, caught three
baseballs thrown from the top of the
Washington monument today.
Each ball dropped 500 feet and ira
versed that distance in about IL
seconds. During the last second it
travelled about IT'S feet and struck
Sullivan's hands with a force of 200
pounds, approximately.
When these figures were told to Sui
Ivan, he remarked.
That's what | say; the ball got to
me in less than no time. For if it
took 1t longer TO travel the first half
OF the distance shan the last half. J
must have caught it before it left the
thrower's hand"
Sullivan was not in uniform. but
wore a backstop's ordinary "mitt", a
cap and spiked shoes.
Many Want to Try 1t.
Since Charley Street, then catcher
OF the Washington team, managed to
hang on to a ball tossed from a ein-
dow at the top of the monument in
August, 1908, about every catcher with
a visiting. team has wanted to try the
stunt. As the attempt is attended by
not little danger, Col. Spencer Cosby.
superintendent of public buildings and
grounds, has refused to grant permits
as often as requested. Sullivan GOT a
permit to make the attempt about this
time last summer, but the affair re-
celved too much notice, and the crowd
on hand to witness the performance
was too large and noisy for comfort.
80 Sullivan postponed the performance
until this morning, when in company
with members of the white Sox" ana
tile SENATORS" and some personal
friends, he made the trial.

Dear Sir: Both my father and nv

does the average man. | believe sin
cerely that the Mutual Benefit does
more for it's policy holders than any
other company in the way of liberal
contracts, splendid returns and in ev-
cry particular. That the history of its
growth represents the highest and
best among strong, reliable financial
institutions is unquestioned by those
who know.
/ have nothing but praise to offer
and wish every applicant for life in-
surance could be made to STE the Mu-
tual Benefit as she really is and as the
company says: "rhe leading annual

WORRYING OVER THE
GIVING OF A KISS.
Ruth Cameron Expresses
Her Views.

A dear little girl has written to te 1
ne that. in a moment of weakness. she
allowed man, with whom she had
been friends for some months but who
had never said that he loved her, .
kiss her, and that she has been worry
ing about it ever since.
Long, long may you worry, little
girl over things like that.
j wish there were more girls worry
ing with you
absurd" SCOTS someone. "a kiss
isn't anything wicked"
Indeed, it isn't my friend-it is quite
one of the most beautiful things in the
world when it is exchanged as a seal
of love between two avowed lovers.
But when it is not in the least a seal
of love, when there is no pretense of
love behind it, when it is merely form
OF pleasure, | do not think it is bead
tiful at all, but foolish and dangerous.
Remember, | like him very much
and l feel quite confident it is mutual, :"
writes my little friend.
q don't doubt that it is, and | don t
believe you have done anything wrong
at all, little girl, but if you really Want
the honest advice you ask for. and are
not, as most advice seekers are, Just
|hoping to be advised to do what yog
want, | will suggest that you let the
man wait for caresses until he wins
tie right to them by telling you that h.
loves you.
| once had a great aunt who told me-
that although She was engaged &,
whole year, she never kissed her ffance
until he was her husband I have also
Heard several worthy ladies of th1
same decade make similar statements.
and it makes me think one of two
things-either that human nature must
have been mighty different in those
days, or else the memories of people
of that generation must be astonish-
ingly weak.
L certainly don't believe in any such
straightlaced prudery as that. [ don't
even believe that a girl must be diam
oned-ring-and- announcement-par en-
gagged before she allows her lover t.
kiss her. But | do belie@e a girls be
ing sure that a kiss is an ex-
preston of honest love and not a form
OF amusement before she grants it.
Isn't that a good test to apply ta
the whole matter of-wen I hate tic
word, but what other is there for it
"spooning?"
Whatever you do, simply for the sen
sation, without love behind it, Is
wrong.
Whateyer-witlin the bounds Of
proprietT--you do, as a spontaneou.
expression of affection because you
loves YOU, is right.
Now please don't use this to justify
anything that YOU know in your heart
is wrong. 1t is not meant for that.
