Sequachee came out ahead in base
ball July 4th, defeating Etna 10 to
In morning affair, and Etna reslgnine
game after AZ innings in afternoon,
when score was 10 to 8.
The morning game was holly con-
tested, both striving for the mastery,
and the contest was only decided in
last half of seventh with one ont,
when Smith scored the winning run.
Curtis and Martin was Sequachee's
battery, and Curtis established a new
record of fourteen strike-outs. He did
some fine work. and is getting his
rep up in pitching. Martin sup
ported him finely, and did some slug
ging at the bat Pennington and W.
Looney was Etna's battery, and Penn
ington was there with the goods, both
in box work and in his hitting. Loon
ey caught him nicely, and did little
smuggling, also. Higgins, W. Looney,
j. Davis and Pennington made eight
of the nice scores the visitors got, and
they were the first men at bat. The
visitors outfielded the locals in morn
ing game, who perpetrated some rank
errors. However. they made it up in
batting, getting off some long drives,
although scattered. All in all. it was
pretty evenly contested, and while no
fancy playing was done, kept the
spectators keyed up until the winning
score was made. BY agreement game
was called at innings.

as il the base hits would never stop.
The Etna boys are gentlemanly lot
OF players, and IL Sunday playing
develops such a sportsmanly team, by

tlemen on and off the field and all |
around good fellows. Return match |
will be played at Etna Labor Day, |

UNCLE TOMS LETTER

| was cogitating about what would
come to Tracy City this year of a So
cial nature. So far nothing of any
consequence save the county singing
convention. That is mighty little fol-
a town Of three thousand people TO
have. No wonder we are growing
kind Of selfish and can't cooperate
with each other in matters for the
general good. We used to beat that
not very long ago. and the result was
we got to liking each other tolerably
well. Now we have TO run a meeting
from to weeks before the little
handful of christians get we'll enough
acquainted with each other to speak,
and by this kind of conducts our crit
les pour broadside after broadside into
us until we believe what they say is
actually 90. Social recreations have
never yet been the cause of men and
wome backsliding. Every warmheart-
ed, genial person in Tracy City is
complimented in the second command
ment, Love thy neighbor as thyself. "
All such people are fave rites of God,
and no man or woman has enough in
fuence to injure single great big
hearted fellow in all of Tracy City.
A lady who prepares great big bas-
ket of good things for picnic can do
more to uplift community than any
dozen snotslingers in the town. She
not only carries wellfiiled basket, but
she has lots of sunshine to dispense at
all of our social recreations. She is
too big and large for any old puritani-
cal idea and notion that governs some
people. If she meets you on the street
She II speak or give you some token of
recognition. She is a lady in every
sense of the word. But these creatures
who imagine they are the ''its'' of So
ciety are mighty little by the side of |
sunshiny persons. Yes, sunshine is my
idea.
Well, asked lady the other day
why nearly all the women of lively |
cut at your "Uncle Tom"
''Why," said she ''you are so cute"
don't know so much about that. Ev- |
On the show lady, Rose Killian, sorter
coupled your "Uncle Tom with a
song she sang and now it is in the
mouth Of everybody that ''Uncle
Tom" and Mrs. Killian has got up a

But there is his mOther-his old
mother-the being above all others
sacred in his eyes; the one who
went down into the Valley Of the
Shadow to bring him into tife; the
one who nursed him through his
helpless infancy; who has cher

and whose sacrifices for him have

He remembers the long nights

the times she went shabby that he
might have new clothes to look as

ing and selfdenial by which she
put him through college.
AL that he is Of good, all that he
ever hopes to be, he owes to his
mother, and he never looks at her
work-knotted old hands without
wanting to go down on his knees
and kiss them in gratitude. And
now his wife demands that he shall
repay that debt by turning the old
woman out of his house.
How can he decide against HIS
mother? Wife and mother! These
are the two women in the world
the man loves best, the ones to
whom he has most tried to do his
duty. and between them they are
crucifying him. They tear his
very soul in twain. They slay his
happiness, and he is helpless.
It is a tragic situation, gro
tesquely tragic, because both
women love the man they torture.
They would do anything else on
earth for him except to sink their
petty spite and jealousy and try to
get along together.
They would make any sacrifice
for him except to give up the
pleasure Of nagging at each other,

ladies. Study It well. Note
the two angry women who
stand facing each other, bitter
ness and hatred in their hearts,
cruel words upon their lips, and
then take heed Of the forlorn,
helpless, pathetic figure Of the man
between them.
II is a picture to make the IN
Outstanding weep, and thespity Of
1t Is that il is one that so many,
many men have only to shut their
eyes to see reproduced in their
own homes, for it is the picture
of the wrangling in-laws that turn
so many homes that should be
happy into understudies of purga-
tory.
In this picture the artist has
seized upon the moment in which
the long-drawn-out quarrels be
tween a mother-in-law and a daugh-
terin-law have come to a crisis,
and the wife has told her husband
that he must choose between her
and his mother, and that one or
the other of them goes out of the
door.
How shall a man decides
He loves his wife devotedly. She
is the one woman in all the world
he picked out to be his companion
through life. He knows that she
loves him. She has been good, and
faithful, and loyal to him. She is
the mother of his children, and he
is bound to her by all the ties that
can unite man to a woman. He
is a domestic man, fond of his
home, finding his greatest interest
In It A thousand voices bid him
choose his wife If he must decide
between the two women.

1t would seem that If a young
woman had one spark Of generosity
in her nature, and if she really loved
the man she married. she would
feel that OF all women on earth.
next to her own mother. the closest
to her was the woman who had
raised up for her a good husband.
It WoWd seem that she would ap-
preciate all that that other woman
had gone through to bring up a
splendid man for ner, and that she
could not do enough for his mother.
It would seem that if a mother
really loved her son she would
desire above everything else his
happiness, and that II he had mar
ried a wife who was good to him,
and tender, and affectionate, and
helpful to him, she would be filed
with gratitude toward her.
But is this the case? Far from
f. Wife is filled with surging zeal
ousy of mOther-inlaw, because her
husband stiu loves the mother who
bore him. Mother is green-eyed
when she thinks of daughter-in-
law, because her son picked her out
for a wife. And they nag each
other, and harp on each others
faults, and interfere with each
other, and hate each other worse
than poison.
And both forget, in their feud,
the man who loves them both, and
who is their hapless VICTIM.
OF course no one will contend
that it is easy for a daughter-in-
law and a mother-in-law to get
along comfortably together. They
may be utterly uncongenial in dis
position. and everybody has their
faults and foibles.
