ON BASEBALL
Peter Elliott Delivered interesting and
Humorous Grafton at High
q, School.

The senior Grafton at the high
school this morning given by Peter
Elliott on the subject of Baseball, re-
ceived by far the most enthusiastic
reception of the year and it merited it's
applause. The speaker handled his
interesting subject in a humorous and
witty manner. This variation was
largely responsible for the big hit
scored.
The speaker brought out the fact
that all great nations have had their
national sport but claimed that base
ball is the greatest of them all. He
gave the history of the great Amer
lean game from the time it was play
ed in England under the name of
FOUNDERS down to the worlds series
of 1911.
The description Of the 1911 worlds
series was especially humorous and
entertaining. After the close of the
grafton, the applause was SO hearty
and prolonged that Mr.. Elliott was
called upon again and made a short
but very witty response.

How to Have the Best Cough
Syrup and Save -, by
Making 1t at Home.

Cough medicines, as q rule, contain a
large quantity of plain syrup. If you
take one pint of g~ranulated sugar, add
~ pint of warm water n stir about
2 minutes, you have as good syrup as
money could buy.
If You win then put 2h ounces OF
pinex $50 cents WORTHY in q pint bottle,
and fill Ii up with the Sugar Syrup, you
will have as much cough syrup as you
could buy ready made for $3.50. 1t
And You viii and it the best cough
syrup you ever used--even in whooping
cough. You can feel it take hold--usn-
ally stops the most severe cough in "a
hours. 1t is Just laxative enough, has a
good tonic effect, and taste is pleasant.
Take a ~teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
1T is q splendid remedy, too, for
whooping cough, Group, hoarseness, asth-
ma, chest pains, etc.
Pinex is the most valuable ~concentra-
ted compound Of Norway white pine ex.
tract, rich in g~llaiacol and all the heal
ing pine elements. No other prepare
ton will work in this formula.
This recipe for making cough remedy
with Pinex and Sugar Syrup is now
used and priced in thousands of homes
In the United States and Canada. The
plan has often been initiated but never
successfully.
al guaranty Of absolute satisfaction, OF
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or will
pet IL for yous If not, send to The
Pinex Coz 1T. Waynes Ind

CLUB NOTES

The Fortnightly club met yester-
day afternoon for their regular meet
ing and the programme was an ex-
ce~ptionally fine one. Miss Bosom, Ii
brarian of the public library gave a
paper on The Library and the Com
munity, taking the place of Miss I'M
hoff, who was scheduled for that sub
ject. Miss Bosson gave some decidedly
interesting information in regard to
the present work and needs of the Ii
brary and it's relation to the COM
munity. She said that the circulation
had increased 5000 books since last
year and that the supply Of books
should be kept equal or above the
demand. One of the arguments in
favor of the public library is that It
stands as a sourc of education for
the laboring people, who otherwise
would not be able to acquire such
knowledge as they now have free ac-
cess to. Many of the local working
people are improving themselves by
study of French and German histories
and BY contact with the best literature
OF the day. The demand upon the
public library Is a credit to the city
and that the stock OF the best reading
matter to be secured be kept complies
is a large asset. Miss Donaldson gave
the other paper of the afternoon and
spoke on Domestic Science and the
Home. Miss Donaldson's idea of the
relation Of domestic science to the
home was d splendid one. She stated
that more domestic economy was
needed for the practical cooking and
supply Of the home. She advised the
menu arrangement for supplying best
the demands of the body. Food should
be provided and prepared on a fixed

The Bay View Study club held a
very interesting meeting yesterday
afternoon at the home of Mrs. f. z.
Stratton on Sixth street south. The
subject of the meeting was The Negro
in America, His History and His Flu
ture. The paper by Mrs. G.. H. Brown
on His History took UP the condition
of the negro from the time he came
America in 1920 down through the
centuries. His life was one Of degrad-
ing influence and cruelty with few or
no examples of attempts at uplift. The
negro was shown as the backbone of
the industrial conditions in the south.
Mrs. w. II. Stewart discussed the flu
ture Of the negro, a problem which
the north has tried to solve and the
south has left for the negro to work
out for himself. He has done SO and
is doing so is is shown by the many
schools and colleges which exist
among the better colored population.
A general discussion followed each of
the papers.
