far as their constitutions will permit.
Now. apart from any pride that one
may feel in ones physical regeneration,
there is the relationship of physical exer-
else to habits. The more any person in
dulges himself in any harmful practice.
the more inclined he is to find ways and
means of making that practice possible.
This may be the use of tobacco, or
liquors. or simple laxiness.

Lincoln Avenue VS.. Nativity
Nativity kept up its winning streak by
defeating Sherwood yesterday afternoon
in a we'll played and exciting game by
the score of 8 to 4. Sherwood scored one
in the first on a pass to Young, who
stole second, and was brought home by a
hit by Patton.
Nativity scored three in the second
when Hanley dropped the third strike on
the first two men up, and they got to
third and second on a passed ball, after
which two hits were made. bringing in
the two runs and one more
The score was tied up in the third by
Sherwood but in the fifth Nativity landed
on Rhodes for further orders, and before
he was sent to the clubhouse five runs
had been scored, which took the heart
out of the champions.
Noone who took up the work on the
mound, held Nativity scOreless for the
last three innings striking out five.
By winning yesterdays game Nativity
got a good lead, which will be hard to
ove1fome as it seems that Ingram is the
only team that is able to hold it in check
The series between Ingram and Nativity
is an interesting one, each team having
won game, and two having been tied.

best game of the year. The only club
which seems to have anything on it at
this time is American Security.
