BOY, HIT WITH
BALL BAT, DIES
Sad Occurrence at Lexington
Results in Death Of Young
Son of J. B. Carmichael.

While playing ball with a number
of his school fellows on the school
grouds at Lexington last Wednesday
afternoon Eric Carmichael ten-year-
old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. J. B. Oar
michael was struck on the head by a
bat thrown by Everett link a boy
fifteen years Of age and son Of A M.
link.
Conflicting stories have reached this
Office of Just how the accident, social
ed, happened but from what we can
gather the smaller boys were playing
ball at the afternoon recess when the
older boy takiog up bat made pass
at the ball, missing it, whereupon he
threw his bat in careless way among
the boys. Not stopping at this how
ever. he took up another bat and threw
it also with the result that the Car
michaeI lad was hit on the head.
The blow rendered him unconscious for
time but lie recovered sufficiently to
walk home, a short distance from the
school grounds. He apparently was
recovering from the injury but during
the night lapsed into unconsciousness
again. DR.. Chick was called from
lone to wait upon the child and did all
that it was possible to do for him, but
it was of no avail and the boy died on
Saturday of hemorrhage of the brain.
The occurrence has cast a gloom over
the little city of Lexington. Adeath
in the family of friend is always a
shock, but when it comes in a sudden
and accidental manner 1t is doubly
shocking. In this case two families
have been plunged into deep grief, a
young life snuffed out, and the acci
dent is a sad one beyond measure.
Funeral services were held at the
Methodist church on Monday, Rev. E.
P. Warren. of Heppner, officiating
and the remains of the little boy were
tenderlv laid to rest in the Lexington
cemetery.

1t is suggested that all parties who
contemplate buying books to present

consult with the Librarian and save
the expense Of duplicate copies. If
this is done as requested the money
thus expendned will be saved and
books can be bought that have not
already been presented and the IN
expense avoided.

Moving Picture Shows
Hurting The Saloons

Court officials Of Schuykill county,
Pa, have been surprised at the falling
off in the number of liquor licenses,
and the judges ordered an inVestiga-
ton. The report shows some Of the
most interesting facts about the
liquor traffic that have ever been
made public in that state.
1t is shown that of the 1920 sa-
looms in Schuykill only 30 per cent
of them are making money. The
others are seriously thinking of giving
up the business. OF those who are
trying to get out, 40 per cent blame
the decline on the moving picture
shows. They say that where the aver
age Workingman used 10 patronize the
bar he now takes his ilfcKcl and goes
along with his family TO the movies
The erection of more motion picture
houses indicate that the saloon bust
ness in that region will be even less

ing laborers have spent many weeks
In securing exhibits, sports and amuse.
ments for the people. and a great deal
Of money and labor have been ex-
pended in putting the grounds In a
better and more seryiceable shape
than they nave been in for years, per.
haps tina nthey have ever been in.
Horsemen who are here for the
irst time and who have been in fair
grounds all over the Middle West
make the unqualified statement that
the local grounds are the finest they
have ever seen with one or possibly
two exceptions. As has been stated

Fine Racing Program.

more coming, all belonging to ]. l..
Johnson Of Raleigh. The fine purses
offered by the association promise
some interesting and exciting races

the we'll known Beach man who gave
such satisfaction as starter last year,
will act in that capacity again this
year.
There will be bucking broncho con-
tests, steer riding, novel racing, ETC.,
as chronicled at different time sin the
past few weeks. And field sports by
local boys and Training school boys
will not be lacking. 49,. s...- 3.
Fine Exhibits Coming.
This years bumper crop will find a
grand reflection in the exhibit halls
OF the Slope fair, for old timers say
that never have they seen better op-
p~ortunity for record breaking exhibits
with more enthusiasm for making
them, than is manifested this year.
Nine foot corn, 30 bushels No. l wheat
and other things in proportion, will
be on the grounds galore, and the
same quality and abundance will be
seen in the animal exhibits. The spec
ial premium list insures many fine
specialties in the art and music line.
Other Sports.
Then there will be a big, free car
nival company, a merry-go-round,
which Is already set up on the
grounds, side shows, surios, and such
amusements, in greater profusion
than ever. 1t will indeed be a gala
