From the Angle Of the Bug
by REUBEN A. LEWIS

Owner Rick Woodward has
announced that he will journey to
the big show the early
part of next week to obtain this
needed boXman. The Baron mogul
is confident that he will obtain the
pitcher and believes with his addi-
ton that the Baron craft will
speed along into first division.
The pitching of Ed Ery in the
G. A. L. has attracted the optics
of the Barons, but it is hardly
probable that he will be secured
for present use. The elongated
right handler has won his tenth
straight game in the compact lit
tie circuit and seems to possess
something. But the Barons will
make no experiments a this stage
of the game.
Hardgrove Is not seriously in
iured. Manager Molesworth wired
last night that while the crash
had burst open a cash in the twirl-
ers head the injury was not dam
gerous. He predicts that the clever
boXman viii rejoin the Barons with

with the locals this season and is
rated as one of the cleverest twirl-
ers in the circuit

Barons will drift to the 500 mark,
The chubby Baron pilot has sched-
uled Bill Prough to serve for the
cripples, while Billy Smith will
transport Conselman to the firing
line. Bill has captured his fourth
straight and is in fine fettle for
the mound
Unless the recent swatting pro-
clivities of McGilvray have been
flashes in the pan, Large William
has recovered his slugging lamp
and should entrench the club on the
offensive. The hitting clip of the
large first sacker looks slight in
comparison to his former marks
but Molesworth is confident that
the Scotchman will recover from
the slump.
While the passing of McGilvray
would provoke a loud sob from the
fans, the chubby leader has de-
clared that all sentiment will be
put aside should the first sacker
continue in his slump. No one real

From the rock-bound old Atlantic,

Lift their snow-crowned peaks on high
To where the southern breezes play,

From the fields of golden grain,
From the mountain, from the valley,
From the broad and fertile plain.

And have ever been the guardians,

We are coming from the factories,
From the furnace and the forge,
We coming from the churches,

And we ask and give no quarter,
One motto raised on high,

Where the truest tests declare

A deception and snare.
We come from city councils
This faithful truth to tell,
That graft and vice are ofsprings,

Where his brazen laclies plead,
All laws are disrespected,

To come and lead the army,
That has raised this battle cry,
Meath the star emblazoned banner,
King Alcohol shall die.
By the cry of orphaned children
By the tears of mothers she'd
AS they bend in stricken sorrow
Above their murdered dead.
By the PRISONS cruel dungeon,
With its heavy iron doors,
That have shut out hope and manhood
From a million bright-eyed boys
Who were caught and bound and fettered,
Ere the dew of youth had passed,
By this aend that knows no pity,
Only mocks them in his wrath.
By the million fair-faced lassies,
Who've been sold as slaves to vice
By the agents of the brothels,
Where this monster rules with might
By the blind and epileptc,
From the heritage of drink;
By the mad house filled with victims
Whom he's robbed of power to think.
By the wrecks Of home and manhood,
By the dyunkard's awful fate,
In the Holy Writ that tells us
Of Heavens closed gate.
We pledge Our time and talents,
And our lives if that need be
To drive this cruel tyrant
From the land of liberty.
So we raise aloft Our standard,
And we'll keep it floating high,
Meath the star emblazoned banner
King Alcohol shall die.
We know no North, we know no South
No breed, no kith, no clan,
We're the sons and daughters of the free,
From home and every land.
In this melting-pot of peoples,
God hath set this truth on high
Righteousness exalts nation"
Hence this ancient wrong shall die
We've enlisted in this army,
Well obey his sovereign word,
We stand at Armageddon
And we battle for the Lord.
The victory shall be ours,
Our redemption draweth nigh
Meath the star emblazoned banner
