from a bee sting which he receiv-
ed on the ankle while playing
golf at Tacoma Sunday, S. G. F.
Hurley, president of the Hurley
Mason Co., is confined in the Sac
red Heart hospital under the care

confined. One escaped, however,
singing Hurley before he could
retreat.

Chief Cadreau, pitcher, held
the Tigers safe yesterday al
though they made nine hits off
the Indian. 1t takes hits to win
games and hits must come at the
right time. But yesterdays en-
counter seems to have been i'll
omened for the Iron Manners. y
A couple of decisions against the
Tigers which should have been
decided favorably, according to
street gossip today, might have
meant a different story. AS a re-
suit Joe MoGinnity was bodily
sent out of his own grounds for
kicking, and the Bengals lost the
game.
Girot pitched good ball but he
got his in the pinches.
In the seventh it looked as II
the Tigers would score. With
Hensllng and HARRISON on the
bags, Crum came up and slammed
a ball to Fitz, who forced Harbi-
SON at second. Wagner threw to

McCarl dropped the ball. If he
did, Hensling's run should have
counted and the score would have
been a little better. McGinnity
thought he dropped the ball and
raised a rumpus. 1t ended with
his exile from the field, and the
fans were with Joe on the kick.

The New Baptist Church an
Assured Fact.

The building of the new church by
the Columbia Baptist congregation is
a certainty. The Building Committee
notified the Sunday School last Sun
day that active steps would be taken
to prepare for the new building and
that it would be necessary to find
another place. The committee ap-
pointed for that purpose has secured
the Courthouse and on next Sunday
we trust all will be present. The Pres
byterians and Christians have tender
ed the use of their churches which our
pastor and the entire membership
most heartily appreciate and, since we
will be several months in the complet-
ing of our building, the decision has
been reached to accept the generous
offer of both, occupying the Christian
church on our regular days for three or
four months, then the remainder with
our Presbyterian brethren. Prayer
meeting services will not be held We'd
nesday night-but arrangements will
be made and announced next Sunday
at the Christian church.
Since writing the above the congre-
CATION has decided not to call OFF the
prayer meeting, and it will be held
each evening the courthouse.
Hour, the ringing OF the bell.

II. Marys Wins.

The last game Of the season was
played between St. Marys and Lind
seys Wilson here Saturday afternoon.
Considering the fact that the home
team had to work against strong, well
traiued college men, several of whom
are Minor league players, they played
well and gut up interesting game.
Snyder and Payne composed the bat'
terry for ST. Marys.
One of the features of the game was
the pitching of Snyder, who struck
out thirteen men and allowed only
three hits.
The battery for Lindsey was Sulli-
van, Hancock and Wolford.
Sullivan pitched good ball, but hav-
ing been sick for several days weaken.
ed in the sixth inning and was reliev.
ed by Hancock. who left fine record
to his credit, striking out nine of the
twelve men up, and allowing not a
man to reach first base.
The final score stood 70 in favor OF
St. Marys.
A word of praise is due the Lindsey
team of this season. 1t is one of the
best the school has ever had and, for
young players, has done most excel
lent work.

State Meeting.
A friend.

The annual meeting of the Ken
lucky State Dental Association, to be
held in Lexington May 1928, promises
to be of more than usual interest to
the dentists of this and neighboring
States. Numerous new methods and
appliances will be exhibited, and the
clinics are to be conducted on very
elaborte and unique plan. Many den
fists from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
Tennessee will be in attendance. Den
tistry, unlike many professions, can
not be learned from books and maya
zines, consequently it is obligatory for
the progressive man to attend these
meetings. The Lexington densists
promise many interesting social feat
ures, and, in fact, the entire program
will prove a rare treat to all in attend
ance.

Walnuts as Egg Producers.

In my poultry yard is walnut tree
which commenced to grow there, a
Seeding, acout thirty years ago. 1t is
now eighty-nine inches in circumfer-
ence at the stump, two feet from the
ground. and its branches reach out
many yards in every direction. 1t is
now noble tree and bushels of wal
nuts grow on it, while it's shade
affords grateful retreat for biddy
and her flock during the hot summer
days, and it's limbs a roosting place
for the older birds.
have very recently learned of an
other way in which it contributes to
her pleasure as we'll as her profit as an
egg producer, fact which may be
known to others, but it was not to
me. Not until this spring did l learn
what bonanza had i'll this tree as
an egg stimulator.
The walnuts of last fall were left
upon the ground as they fell, save
few bushels, hulled, dried, and placed
away for family consumption ID 1t
did not occur to me to make provis-
ion for biddy also by storing away
supply for her, but casually gathering
a handful of the walnuts which had
been left upon the ground, and break
ing them l discovered that they were
uninjured by the winters freezes and
rains. The kernels seemed fresh and
well preserved. Whatever of protein
and the other elements of food were
in them earlier in the season, were in
them still. l tasted them, and they
still had the walnut taste-very pal
atable to lover of walnutS. While l
was making this examination and
test, biddy stood by, apparently much
interested in what was doing. She
said not word even by a cluck, but
she watched me with an Intensity OF
interest 1 could. not fail to observe,
and she said to me by her actions, if
not by words, Il Opine they are all
right, suppose you divide with me-"
The appeal was not to be resisted.
"All right, old lady," said |, "if that
is your wish you shall share in the
treat" and with that L commenced
cracking them for her. In a little
while others came, aud then in a few
moments my whole flock of Plymouth
Rock wers around me scratching, and
pecking out the meat to their great
edification. Even the old setter"
left the eggs which she had been
nursing and came clucking as happy
as girl on her first automobile ride,
to take part in the entertainment,
and every cluck seemed to. be thank
you.
The next day took my seat again
under the walnut, and without a call
the whole chicken family gathered
about me. cracked the walnuts for
them, while they pecked and scratched
and sang, and thus it has gone on
from day to day in the spirit of a
genuine reciprocity, walnuts for eggs
and eggs for walnuts.
L think biddy has made up her
mind that she will do no brooding
while the. treat continues. L bought
setting of fine eggs in anticipation
of the event, and they are spelling by
the delay, but she declines to ''set. "
She intimates that she can't ''Set'
while the walnuts last. She can't
''set" and ''lay" at the same time, and,
under the circumstances it is phys
ical impossibility for her to cease lay

Congressman Ben Johnson, who has
announced, in the public prints, that
he will endorse Mr.. W. 1. Meader. An
effort to influence him to change his
mind, in our opinion will make him all
the stronger for the applicant he has
