The Crescent Athletic Club, champion

its second successive victory in defeat

that came his way. presenting the oppo-

three misplays which gave Montclair two
runs.
Danny Holman, the Crescent star, was
bounded for eleven hits. many OF which

He was strong for the first five innings.
though three punched hits and free pass
gave Montclair two runs in the third.
Holman weakened toward the end, but
smart fielding saved him several runs.
After Geary. the Montclair pitcher, had
been found for homer by Throp, doubles
by BALM and Sides and three singles Tor
all of Crescent's runs, he was removed
from the mound at the end OF the fourth
inning. Meyers took up the almost hope

Moon players to get a single safety there
after. Throp and Sides each made two
hits. the latter showing his sensational

OFFICIAL LIST FOR
RECORDS ON TRACK
Committee at Lyons Cuts
Special Distances from
the Books.

Lyons. France. June 6-For the first
time In the history of athletics an official
list of worlds records, to be recognized
by all nations. was drawn up to-day by
the records committee Of the lnterna-
tional Amateur Athletic Federation. meet
ing at Lyons II is expected that the
list as arranged by the committee will
be adopted by the federation early next
week. II is possible, however, that OPP
position may arise in the case of the
discus. in which the committee. having
abolished the S-foot 2io-nch circle from
the rules. has been unable To recognize
any record except that Of the American
James Duncan, made at Celtic Park, in
1912. AS feet 9i2 inches
one of the features of the sitting was
the elimination OF innumorabe records
for special distances and also of all
records except those made on track.
The record for 40 yards, straightaway'
Of A. is seconds made by NJ. w. Long. at
Gutenberg, in 1905, has, therefore, been
discarded.
The committee decided to eliminate all
records above twenty-five miles or forty
kilo metres, and also all records ABOVE TWO
hours on the ground that contests at
greater distances would be exhausting
and should not be encouraged.
Among the records that will be recog-
nized in the future by the international
Athletic Federation If the report OF the
committee is adopted are the following:
One hundred yards, held by Kelly; 20
Yards. Wefers. Craig, Kelly and Lippln-

Obituary

Virginia P. Hunt, nee Clarkson,
was born in Florence County, Virginia,
died at her home at Bismarck, Mis-
souri,, January sth, 1914 aged IA years,
8 months and % days. Her funeral
was preached at her home, by her
pastor, Rev. VIM. Stewart, assisted
by Presiding Elder Court of Farming
ton, Mo. Her remains were taken to
Caledonia and there laid to rest with
her dear children that have gone be-
fore her. She was the daughter of
Joseph and Susan Clarkson of Middle
sex County, Virginia. Also a sister of
Judge Jos. G. Clarkson, who formerly
lived at Annapolis and Arcadia,
Missouri.
Mr.. and Mrs. G. F. Hunt emigrated
from Virginia August 10, 1865, and was
married July 18th, 1866. They settled
on a farm near Caledonia, Nc. and
later moved to Bismarck, Mo. She
was the mother of six children. Only
three of her children we're with her
when she died; the others are in the
far west and could not come.
She protested faith in Christ when
young; was a consistent and devoted
member of the Methodist church.
She was always found in her place
in church and Sabbath School. Was
q member of the Woman's Missionary
Society. and none knew her but to
respect and love her. The church
and community deplore the great
loss of 80 noble a worker. Her
children and husband will miss her
words of encouragement, and loving
deeds which she always performed,
helping them in whatever work they
would undertake; and she was never
too busy to help those in need. HeI
greatest pleasure was in doing some
thing for others, and her deeds Of
kindness on earth cannot be number
ed here. They are only numbered ii
Heaven. To speak of her absence, o.
how much she will be missed, is more
than we can tell. God alone know
how great the sadness how all viii
miss her,-but it vas His will to take
her. To look upon her face, SO calm
and peaceful, with an expression tina
spoke peace and rest, was an inspira'
ton and lasting consolation to he
loved mes and friends. May Goo

School Notes.


Teachers training classes will have
their examinations Tuesday, January
Doth. Eleven pupils will take the
tests.
One day last week our agriculture
class of the eighth grade tested a
sample of milk from the fine Jersey
COW owned by Mr.. Hanson. The test
was carefully made from whole milk
and showed So percent butter fat.
This is more than so percent above
the average. This means that Mr..
Hanson could add one half gallon of
water to each gallon of milk and still
have standard milk. We have tested
milk in Ironton as low as "a percent
fat. One gallon of the sample tested
above would be equal to 2H gallons
of the last mentioned. There are
some strange things about the farmers
of this section. We have offered to
test the milk of cows at SOC each, but
we have never had one call for the
test. It's funny, isn't it?
Last Friday afternoon the ladies of
Ironton district met at the school
building and organized into a club to
be known as the Mothers and Patron
Club of Ironton. The meeting was
addressed by Supt. Loomis. Mrs.
Riggs made a talk on cooperation of
parents and teachers. Mrs. Loomis
gave a report of Flat River Club.
After the speaking a vote was taken
to organize. The following officers
were then elected.
President-Mrs. Francis.
Vice President-Mrs. Fred Kindell,
Jr.
Secretary and Treasurer-Mrs. Jas
Newman.
Twenty four names were reported
for membership at the first meeting.
1t is the wish of the club that all
ladies and patrons of the district be-
come members.
Meeting then adjourned to meet al
the school building Friday, January
18th, at 3.30P. M.
