tee of the Grammar School was held
In the building of the Central Young
Mems Christian Association last Sat

mar School Baseball League for the
year 1912. This will be the seventh

School, in 1909, Runner School; 1910
Madison school; and 1911, Elba School.
; Each year The Times-Dispatch has
presented n trophy shield with the
names of the players inscribed thercon)
to the school winning the champion
ship, and this year Will do the Same.
AS in former years. the league will
be divided into two sections, known
as the eastern. with seven schools,
and tho western. with eight schools
represented. The winners in each SEQ
! ton will play a series of games for
tho city championship, the first at
Byrd Park on May 90; the second on
Christ Church Association field s-ly
"a. In case a third game Is necessary
It will be played on May 81, the place
to be decided By toss.
The league VIII be run under the
following regulations:
I. Boys to be eligible for places on
the teams must be under sixteen years
of age April /, OF THIS year. hHu iiuSs
have attended school for az least two
weeks prior to the opening or the
league. Violation OF this rule will
mean forfeiture of the games played
.. Any boy whose weekly standing
in school work Ia unsatisfactory may
be debarred by the principal from
playing on his school team
s. The principals shall see that the
boys who play on the teams are eX-
amined and passed upon by physicians
as to their physical fitness to take
part in athletics.
A. In order that tho games may be
played without any disorder, every
player Is expected to abide by the
umpire's decisions. Every player Is
expected to conduct himself like a
true sportsman, and thus help make
the team the best ever. Bad language
is ungentlemanly. and is therefore
prohibited
g. Each captain must furnish the
! umpire with n written batting order
for his team before the beginning OF
the game.
6. The captains will be expected to
secure umpires for the games when IL
is impossible for the league managers
to do So
Z. Each team must furnish a league
ball in good condition for each game

CLOUDS

If every day was sunny, with ne'er a cloud in view, we d soon be spending money to buy a cloud or two. It always makes me weary when people say: "Old boy, may all your days be
 cheery and bright and full of ioy.N If all my days were sun Iry, existence would seem flat; if l were fed on honey I'd soon get sick of that. l like a slice Iof sorro wto hold me down to- day, for that will make tomor-
 row seem fifty times as gay. A little dose of sickness won't make me whine or yell; twill emphasize the slicknes of life when 1 am well. A little siege of trouble won't put my hope, in pawn, for l'll be trottng
 double with joy when it Is gone Down there in tropic regions where sunshine gleams all
 day, the fat and lazy legions just sleep their lives away;
 there every idle pumpkin who in the sunshine lies, lives like a yellow pumpkin, and like a squash he dies. l want my
 share of ups and downs; I want a life that ranges from
 crosses up to crowns.-WALT

In the early days when peO- | pie came to Alaska to dig gold, their one desire was to make a stake and get out. Then there was no convenienceS. Homes were rudely constructed, no at tempt was made to beautify lawns or raise gardens. Get gold and get out was the do- minating desire After awhile many began to discover that conditions were as conducive to home making and happiness right here as anywhere else. Today this northland is slowly being settled up with people who have learned to satisfy the hearts desire with the th- ings that are round about us.
 Still from force of habit, from the process of thinking so, there are many who feel urged to go outside, as it is called, each winter and come back in the spring. The money that Is spent each season in go- ing outside, would build homes and create surroundings more beautiful right here than ma iority of the people outside po- sess
 The cities of Alaska today are suffering more from this
 fad of going outside, of spend l ing their money and time in Seattle and elsewhere than they are from the effects of conservation or any of the po- lltical bugabOUs that are being
 held before Us as reasons for
 all our ills.
 This going outside is a ner- yous and meaningless habit. II
 Is like buying an Easter bonnet
 whether you need it or not.
 We do it because someone else
 set the pace years ago.-Ex.
