Can't Stand
Their Defeat
In Game With HarIoWton Here
Last Week When They Were
Defeated by the Score Of II
2.

The following clippings taken
from the Lavina Independent will
show the small caliber of some
people who want to be classed AS
a true sport and don't know how.
When one thing goes wrong every
thing else seems to 60 the same
way:
The Lavina base ball team
went to Harlowton Wednesday to
play game with picked nine
gathered from at least six differ
ent teams from the entire central
and eastern Montana. The Lavina
team was defeated by score OF 2
to II, and to considerable extent
this score was result of their own
misplaying. Frankly speaking,
they had a day off and with rhe
aggregation pitted against them,
it is wonder the score was not
worse. They have the faith of the
town and the community of
Lavina behind them, however, in
the belief that with an even break
in luck and playing their usual
game they can win from Harlow
ton or any other team in the same
class in Montana, two out OF three.
But, it does look little that a
town with a population some 30
time as great as Lavina, would
have to gather stars from Lewis
town, Hedgesville, Judith Gap,
Three Forks and Miles City, to
play with a bunch of our boys,
everyone of whom represent their
own little burg, and play ball be-
cause they can and be cause they
like it.
About thirty people from
Lavina, went to Harlowton We'd
nesday to witness the ball game.
Among the disagreeable features
of the day was the inability of the
hotel to properly attend to the
wants of their guests, as many
were compelled to leave, after a
wait of an hour or so for their or
ders. 1t was afterwards reported
that those who did not wait, were
indeed lucky"
Someone certainly has beer
stringing the Independent scribe
and he took the bait nicely. Gu
inquiries reveal the fact that th'
home team had only two OUTSIDE
players and they have been play
ing here all season and as far a
hotel accommodations 60 they cal

Disappointment Comes Hard

Yesterday there was long line
of wagons and horses outlined
against the horizon and conjecture
ran high. We were assured that
it was grading outfit, that the
railroad was to be extended at
once, that the eXcavating and
grading for the new hotel were to
start at once, and various other
projects dear to the hearts of all
true White Sulphurites were sur
missed as about to begin. Later
advices were to the effect that the
aggregation was a band of emf
grants bound for Canada. When
the mists dissolved this morning
they had folded their tents like
the Arabs and silently stole away

GROSS CRUELTY TO BOOKS
Librarian Protests Against the Way
Some People Handle Volumes
In Street Cars.

'The way some people handle books
in street cars knocks that old Sunday
school precept. Let not your angry
passions rise into smithereens so far
as 1 am concerned" said the librarian.
4 get especially wrathy when the
abused books happen to belong to a
public library Nest Of them do be.
long there.
Persons carrying great pile Of
books are the worst offenders. "a
bunch Of books carried under the arm
get pretty unmanageable. They slip
and slide around as II they had been
creased
One way to prevent that is to slsn
the top cover Of the bottom book into
the lower cover OF the book Just
above It. and SO on through the pile.
The books cannot slip then. but
heaven help the covers. They will
get torn loose in no time.
Every once In a while a subscriber
who wants to save himself the trouble
of chasing books in the street locks a
bundle OF them together that way be-
fore leaving the library. but usually
somebody who knows the effects stops
him. Ia street cars he is free to do
as he chooses unless some librarian
catches him at IT, Maybe they have
no right to interfere then, but most
of them do"
