IL to drake and Kirke Clout
Ball For Home Runs.
BY PAUL HALE eRuskE.

HATTIESBURG, Miss, March H.
The Hattiesburg Woodpeckers proved
easy money for Wild Bill Donovan's
Tigerettes here yesterday so that
when the final inning had PISSED into
history the score stood IL TO 1.
The colts clouted the ball like veter-
ans and ran the bases like fiends.
Sixteen hits were marked up for the
youngsters, two OF which sailed grace
fully over the fence for home runs.
Jennings while here as a spectator,
donned a uniform and gave some
good advice to the youngsters.
The athletes will remain here to-
day.

effects OF the weeks hard practice
which they had been doing but the

form which they have shown in other
contests. ID. A. c. stars who herero-
fore have made good with their deadly
aim at the basket, Monday night were
wild in their throws and Gordon

the athletic club team was forced to
content with one goal, later being
replaced by Schinnick. Mazer who In
the last game made record from the
foul line was Monday night only aole
to score times in IA Attempts and
was unable to make a single score
from the field.
The ~" men showed the effects of
their practice by their accurate pass
ing. Branston for the Christians,
proved the principal point getter, and
was lost by Mazer, his opponent, a
number OF times. Branston scored ~
of the points. Wilson also shared the
starring honors for his team. For the

Putnam's Comment

The following is part of the
write-up given the Editorial AS
ISOLATION Meeting at Bucklin in
the Southwest Trail of Chicago.
The big doins comes in the evening, when
the Meade Ladies' band was to give a con
cert, with them furnishing the band music
and me the chin music.
The Ladies band is run by Prof. Won
Prosky. A musician has either got to have
long hair or double jointed name. Won
has got the right bunch on the name, and he
keeps his hair barbered pretty close and
dresses like white man. But when il comes
to music he's there with the goods. When
he waved his little stick in the air and gives
the band the highball, they was off with a
crash and clip that made the telegraph
poles 90 by about two hundred to the mile.
Gee how them gals did blow! He kept them
blowing till the red sweat run down their
cheeks in streams and all their complexion
run off down on the stage. After the band
played a few pieces Won took up the
cornet hisself and went at it. Cash dinged
if he didn't end up by blowing a note that
went through a knot hole in the roof ii was so
high! After he got through they puts the
band on fur another tune and this time they
gets me so excited that just ups and hollers;
$50 it gals the roof II stand it and if she
bleaks down I'll foot the bll''.
The next one was soft and dreamy like, and
was floating down one of them muddy rivers
in the South, a smellin' magnolias and fight
in muskitoes They is nothing like musick
to make man see things when he is supposed
to be wide awake. Well, after that number
Won Prosky comes out ag'in, but this time
with fiddle and, by jingo, if he don't just
make that fiddle talk I'm liar. Simeon
Baker, who useter fiddle fur our dances when
l was a courtin Joshephine, couldn't come
up to it, and reckon Sim was some fiddler.
Bet he could still skin Won Prosky when it
comes to playin' "Turkey in the Straw.

A Farmers Opinion

EultOT news: 49,
Seeing an article in the News, what will
Meade do about celebrating the 4th of July,
l, like you think that the fair should be
enough. Of course we all like to celebrate the
fourth but it comes in the wrong time of year
for farmers. We farmers are always in our
harvest field at that time and it is very hard
to have to work in harvest field while some
of our neighbors are having good time in
town, at the same time if we leave our field
and go to have good time we may lose our
crop. | would suggest that if you Meade
folks will take what it will cost to make a
good celebration and put it into the County
fair fund it would help the fair and we could
will attendant makeit success. OF course
would like to hear other farmers views on
this. Yours, J. A. Chlumsky.

Just why so much attention is
paid to crops which at best only
promise a fair crop are raised
in preference to those which are
certain to yield heavily is hard to
understand. Whenever our far
mers depend more on raising
hogs and the sure crops to feed
them then the future of the coun-
try will no longer be in doubt.
