DreHer, Dec. d.
We are on the last lap of 1912,
with another big holiday near at
hand. That means much in the way
of preparation in the home, where
the many wanderers over this broad
land of ours, must see home at
Christmas time. We need to be
thankful at all times, for each day
brings something that is directed by
divine power.

ly, he said, the farmers of Clinton
county organized a farm bureau to
work in connection with the Pitts
burg Board of Trade, and that the
plan is working out swimmingly.

industrial agent" it makes no diff
ference to the government whether
the project Is carried on through a
board of trade, or whether the NOV

ty agency. Result is the thing the
government is concerned in, not
names of organizations.
In Clinton county," Mr.. Shoe
maker continued. "the Clinton Coun-
ty Farmers league has Joined the
farm bureau of the Plattsburg
Board of Trade, and has engaged the
services of an expert, who is now on

in touch with all farmers, giving ad-
vice as to suitable crops on certain
areas, proper fertilizer for certain
sections, and all matters pertaining
to better yield per acre, having in
mind the transportation facilities and
the marketing facilities. Those or

he went on to say, that the indica-

Rawlings, Morris, and Ship
ley Sign with Worcester,
New England League.
WILL REPORT IN APRIL
Reggie Rawlings, Star of Bankers
Team, and Country" Morris
to Play Professional Ball.
BY @. w. SWAN.

Three local boys, products OF the local
sand lots, will cast their lot In profess
sional baseball the coming season with
the Worcester club of the New England
League.
Reggie Rawlings. the star slugger OF
the Bankers team last year, amateur
champions OF the District: Country
Morris, the crack football and baseball
player OF Technical High School, and
Capt. shipley. OF the Maryland AgricuI-
tural College baseball team, are the boys
who will enter the professional ranks
with the Worcester team.
Charley Donnelly, who halls from wor-
cester. is the scout who signed these
youngsters. Donnelly IS a close personal
friend OF Jesse Burkett, manager OF the
Worcester aggregation, and when leaving
Worcester to come TO Washington, Bur-
section.
After looking over the amateur leagues
here last season DonneIly picked this trio
as being the best In Washington, bar
none. The lads have all signed contracts.
Rawlings n Star.
Reggie Rawlings is one OF the best hit
ters IN amateur ball, and II was his hit
ting that made the Bankers SO strong an
aggregation during the amateur season
OF 1871. Reggie hits hard, Is fast on
the bases, and. above all, knows the fine
points Of the game Before going into the
outfield, Reggie made a reputation as a
twirler OF class, pitching for the cham
pion Washington Herald team in the
Commercial League In 1910. and practical
ly winning the pennant for the news
paper team Last season he was used IN
left field by the Bankers. and was the
only man to hit consistently in the post
season series.
Country Morris is another lad who
can slam the horsehide to all corners OF
the lot Catching for the Pepco team OF
the Commercial League. Country" was
the star of that circuit in -clouting, win
ming more than one game for the Pepcos
by his timely swats. As catcher,
Country ranks with the best, being
good thrower and a great receiver.
Shipley played second base for the
Maryland Aggies last year. and also
played with the Sewage Pumping Sta
ton team in the Capital City League.
ShipIey is one OF the best fielders in this
and a great man to tag the runner. He
is not the slugger the other two lads
are, but can hit well enough 20 get by.
and Il is expected that he will have no
trouble making good In the New England
League.
These youngsters will report TO Burkett
the middle Of April. and Il can be said
that never before have three more likely
looking lads signed with the same team
to play professional baseball

OPRIGMAN TO COACH
G. U. BALL TBAM

Manager Haggerty. OF the Blue and
Gray baseball team, announced last night
that Jim Sprigman, the coach OF last
years nine, had signed a contract dur
ing the afternoon to coach the team dur
ing the coming season
II was stated in these columns some
time ago that Sprigman would doubtless
ly be chosen as the coach OF the ball
team for the coming season. but at that
time the contract had not been signed,
and not until yesterday afternoon was II
known definitely whether or not Sprigman
would be on hand to look after the
team during the coming season.
That Sprigman will have with him the
support Of all the Georgetown men goes
without saying, because when the man
agement chose Jim Sprigman as head
coach of the ball team next spring they
made one Of the wisest moves that has
been made on the Hilltop In q good many
years.

When she had finished her meal she went in quest of her property, to find to her dismay that 1t had disappeared. The loss was all the more annoying. as among the bags was one containg as much as $36,00O worth of script, be- sides several hundred francs in gold.
