formed us that he has signed STEELE.
Wright and Wheeler. STEELE will
be on first base, while Wheeler will
be used either at short or in the
outfield. He has hitting field, as
our people will discover before the
season is very old. Wright is a
pitcher and a star No twirler who
ever performed in the Kitty league
has anything on Tommy. Mr..
Brockett also informed us that he
was going to give Tommy Vance. the
Harrisburg catcher, and Hensley
and Futrell, both local southpaws, a
good trial. He seems 10 think pref
ty well of Vance and believes he can
make good boxmen out of one OF
the two southpaws. We believe as
much, too.
John Dowen, the former idol OF
Harrisburg fans, has appealed to
Brockett for a place ON his team.
The manager told him he could make
a try and If he made good would be
signed, Mr.. Brockett impressed it
upon Dowell's mind that the Harris
burg players would have to hit the
sphere, else he could not place them.
Broekett is after the pennant. So
is Steele. While in Cairo Sunday a
Harrisburg gentleman was in
formed by well known baseball
man there that in his estimation the
team that beat Harrisburg would
win the pennant, The gentleman
based his opinion upon the mere
fact that Louis Brockett was going
to manage the Harrisburg team

instructor from our state university
Prof. Miller's lecture on attention,
memory and habit formation made
a fitting close to the study OF
Physiology which has been the spec
ial task of the teachers of the coun-
ty for the year. Prof. Mi Ter is co
worker with Dr. Bagley, whose book
has been the text for study. At the
evening lecture Mr.. Miller proved
conclusively that I'VE DO Believe
in Education" He proved by graphic
illustration that the United States
ranks second to no nation in second
airy education. 1t was interesting
to note that no enterprise except the
liquor traffic involves greater out
lay of money as does the education
of our youth.

DRIVING
 OF MOTOR VEHICLES
What Will the Harvest Be When Use of Such COnveyances
 Become General

A question which has arisen in the minds of every thinking person is yet to be verified, and it threatens to be one which will cost many lives before solution. That question as put by a prominent citizen who stood upon the corner of Main and Congress streets yesterday afternoon and witnessed narrow escape from serious collision is: twill not the light commercial de- livery automobile, driven by irrespon- sible cIerk-drivers, pressed by their employers to hasten trips, prove a greater menace than ever was the speed-crazy joy-rider with his drunken party?"
 The occasion was one of breathless expectancy as a, motor driven conmer- ciaI vehicle, attempting to acquire sneed to surnount the hill west on Congress street, transgressed the rules of the road by crossing Main street which is the, right-of-way at that noint. Alexander Morrissey, driving the Charities automobile, was proceed ing south in Main stret and was Tn imminent danger of being Flolently run into by the violator mad ne not shown the utmost nerve and succeed ed in swinging his car into Congress street with but the hairs breadth De- tween the running boards of the two machines.

 It was also questioned whether many of inc vo11ng men seen driving this type of car today had licenses in their possession
