thoughts of future possibilities. The
community greatly appreciate the
careful training received by the child
rem under the skilful management of
Miss Edyth Ness their teacher who
deserves very great credit. But per-
haps nothing can be fraught with
greater interest to the farming COM
munity than the subject of "%Intensi-
fed Farming" so ably handled by Ed.
Peterson who is a living embodiment
of what he breaches. Never before
in the history of this county has the
result Of intensified farming so clear
ly shown itself as at the present time.
When the number of acres rather than
the quality of the work done, seems
to be the great criterion, Mr.. Peder-
sons remarks were very opportune
and if followed would revolutionize
the prevalent methods of farming and
result in larger yields and greater
prosperity. Mr.. Peterson was follow
ed by some instrumental music, by
Miss Edyth Ness and Geo. Amoth,
which was very creditable to the per-
formers and we'll received. A tug of
wal was next in order, Moscow VS..
Waterloo in which the laurels were
holly contested, the Moscow team ev-
entually carrying off the honors.
Your correspondent is c%reditably in
formed, however, by an impartial
Waterloo witness that a close investi-
cation, after the clouds of war had
rolled away, revealed the fact that
one of the Moscow team had been
firmly planted in a badger hole which,
no doubt materially helped them to
bring defeat upon their less wary op-
ponents. Another contest by the
juniors created considerable interest.
A "pick-up' ball game, Waterloo VS..
Moscow, resulted in a score of 9 to 5
in favor of the former. The program
closed with an auction of baskets fol-
lowing, the gross proceeds of which
was SIP. 90. We understand that
the proceeds was devoted to the
worthy object of relieving, in some
measure, the pecuniary embarrassment
of some members of the community
who had had considerable sickness in
the family.

IN order was a very appropriate duet

A LOVERS POEM

Meath my bantern tones was a seri-
Gus note,
And Charley boy felt a lump in his
throat;
l felt her hand tremble, 1 saw a blush
rise,
AS Sadie cast down her sweet blue
eyes.
Then l realized all: as my dinner I
ate,
Charley boy knew that now he had
met with his fate,
l new that 1 wanted the rest of nv
life,
Miss Sadie for my wife.
Of curse | was not such an absolute
Ounce,
AS to think l could win a lady's
heart all at once.
But knowing my wit, my breeding
and birth,
Charley boy fully valued his worth.
| whispered sweet speeches in Miss
Sadie's ear;
| murmured a soft word that sounded
like "Dear;'
| gazed at her fondly with glad eyes
that shone;
| held meath the table Sadie's hand in
my own.
Then later that evening l took her
aside
And lovingly ask Sadie to be my fair
bride.

Last Friday evening our team play
ed a good game with the Hay boys on
their grounds near the church, losing
by a score of 7 to g. The absence of
some of the regular players and the
rough ground no doubt had a lot to do
with the result of the game, not that
we underestimate the playing ability

that they are up against a hard hit

from Hay township on the diamond.
The second game Sunday afternoon

gave general satisfaction where sew
eral close decisions had to be made.
The game stood 5 to 3 in favor OF
Hay up to the sixth inning when oul
boys got in four runs winning the
game.
The ball game last Sunday between
Olga and Milton was hard fought anG
a good game in spite Of the rank
decisions of the umpire up to the
ninth inning when the score was 6
tie, 7 to Z. When Milton went te
bat in the first of the ninth McLarer
and Link both knocked out singles anc
Anderson the third mar to bat got his
second strike by a foul, which glanc.
ing from his bat struck him on the
leg and the umpire sent the batter tt
first base claiming that he was hit by
a pitched ball. Our boys refused t.
play unless this unfair decision wa:
reversed which demand was endorsed
by several Of the Milton players. The
batteries were: Milton, jacob anl
Seible; Olga, NORM and Placement.
NORM struck out 13 men and Jacob
seven.
