mosquitoes have been observed to

UmpS Won't Tackle

The game had gone against yerden
and Chickasha romped home with the
bacon. j. f. Jones Of Verden started
the game as judge Of play around the
paths. Now it is a notorious fact thal
the fans in the stands never see .
play in the same light as does his ma
jesty, the jumps. therefore the jumps
comes in for lots Of criticism. Umps
Jones had three exceedingly close de-
cisions at first base. which decisions
went in favor Of verden every time.
when from all appearances they should
have gone to the Chickasha club.
The sporting editor for The express
was on the grounds and in his story
OF the game criticised the decision OF
the jumps on these three particular
plays.
When Mr.. Jones read the account
Of the game in Mondays paper he ap
parently became very wroth and
straightway grabbed pair os shears
cut the story out and mailed it to Ths

Libraries serve to encourage and fos-
ter the evil, though they are Of very

people should own the books they
read. We believe heartily in buying

toned is about $500 feet, so that
1t will cost in the neighborhood of
81 per lot to put in the arc lights.
This must be arranged by general
agreement and not by a bond issue,

This arrangement would mean
that approximately 40 lights, two

equivalent of 40 candle power would
be installed between Second and Pit

ready installed under the sidewalk
