.ELkS WILL
PLAY BALL

Wednesday, August the Seventh
promises to be a big day for the
Elks' fraternity of this city and Ste
vens Point, for on that day the Elks
from Stevens Point Will try and play
a game Of base ball with the EIks of
Grand Rapids. The local lodge has
already started it's gang of ball toss
erS practicing. There will be eight
cen men on the Grand Rapids team
nine regulars and nine subs-you can
guess how desperately they will fight
to uphold the honor of our great and
glorious city. The practice started
Monday evening on the west side cit.
square and so fierce was it that al
ready there are two crippIes on the
regular team. Joe. Cans, who, be-
cause he can almost reach from first
base either home or to second had
been selected to play first base was
taking some swift ones from Morning
ton, when the aforesaid Normington
let go one of his famous? goldfish balls
and Joe got it on the second feeler
Of his right nit. This put Joe out
of the running and it is scarcely pos
sibIe that he will be able to play
for the remainder of the season. The
other accident? happened to our es-
teemed candidate for Clerk of the
Court, Arthur P. Mulroy who was
practicing running bases when he
was overtaken by a water wagon
and badly bumped (Some of Arts
friends say he is just running for
office SO he wont have to buy-if
that is so, it was kind Of mean on
the part Of the water wagon to give
him a JOLT. Ray johnson will go
on the firing line at the start of
the battle. Ray has been heaving
bricks, rocks and other missals get
ting in trim for the Fray Last eV-
ening Ray was practicing when he
was criticised by a person who ought
to have known better. This person
heaved stone at Ray which was
returned with interest and this caus-
tic remark, people who reside in
domiciles Of crystalline construction
should refrain from the projection of
missiles Of stoniness construction.
After the practice Monday even
ing the team Went into executive ses-
sion The Elk's milk can was open
ed and they proceeded to do bust
ness. The principal thing discuss
ed was as to whether or not it
would be advisable to start the game
on the previous day so that they wou1
be sure of completing it on Wednes-
day. It proved to be a serious ques-
ton and resulted in a deadlock. If
the deadlock is not broken by next
week at sixteen minutes past half
past four, it will be left to Stovey
Norton to decide. The lineup will
be published later.

PROMINENT BAD

Wisconsin Committee to Confer
Honorable Appointments.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, July 27.-One
hundred Of the most representative
public spirited citizens from various
sections Of the state are being Sc
Iected by the Wisconsin Committee
of the International Congress on Hy
giene to stand sponsor for the repre-
sentation of Wisconsin at big Wash
ington meeting.
At a meeting of the committee hello
in Milwaukee today, it was deter
mined that men and women who have
taken active interest in the general
welfare and health of the public, be
asked to endorse the attempt that
is being made to wipe out preventa-
BILE disease.
1T is high time that the Ameri-
can people secure as good health
conditions for themselves as have
been given by them to the people of
Cuba, Porto Rico, Panama and the
PHILIPPINES" said J. D. Beck, a mem
Der of the Wisconsin Industrial
Commission. yellow fever has been
completely conquered in those coun-
tries by the proper administration of
health regulations. We could as
easily stop typhoid, most intestinal
diseases of childhood and infancy,
and other contagious diseases were
We as alert for our own health. 1t
seems to be difficult for people to re.
alize that it is as disgraceful, IN
necessary and expensive to have hui
man disease as it is to have ones
chickens sheep, hogs and cattle
sicken and die from causes that
could have been avoided. The In
ternational Congress will be worth
millions to the American people if
it only succeeds III making them think
of these things"
