No Sale is Required.

"The new law provides for the issue
of delinquency certificates to the coun-
ty upon the failure to pay at least one
half of the taxes before delinquency,
and upon the failure to pay the last
half of the taxes within the prescribed
time, without transcribing the delin-
quent taxes upon delinquent roll and
without the publication of the delin
quent list and without auction sale.
TRANSFERRING the delinquent taxes
upon the delinquent list was only an
unnecessary expense and believe that
it is generally admitted that the pub
lication of the delinquent list three
years prior to the time when the
holder of the certificate might obtain
a tax deed was no protection to the
owner, and such publication

BASEBALL MANAGERS
PRAISED BY PASTOR
Rev. Dr.. Lucius c. Clark in Sermon on
"Out at the Plate" Tells How
They Stand on Morals.
TOBACCO AND BOOZE TABooED

''Out at the Plate was the subject Of
the sermon at the semi-annuaI students
service last night at Hamline NJ E.
Church by the pastor. Rev. Lucius c,
Clark.
"As an interested spectator Of base
ball." said the pastor. Il do not know
Of a more disappointing moment than
when a player is put out at the plate.
When a batter stands at the plate with
bases fuif and when a hit means a run
and a game. and the player fans or pops
up an easy one, the spectator goes away
disappointed and wonders why the fell
lows are not at their best when they are
in the pinch. Bad habits have lost more
ball games and games of life than any,
thing else. That's the reason baseball
managers have become so emphatic in
statement apd compelling in rules for
their pIayerk"
a number Of persons promising In the
baseball world concerning morals. few
Of them follow:
Clark Griiith: 'In the future no player
tina. uses cigarettes can draw a salary
from the Washington club / am con-
vinced that Its failure to come up to ex-
pectations last season was largely due
to the fact that some Of the players on
whom / depended were cigarette fiends.
There will be no more of it,
Connie Mack. manager Of the American
League Athletics: There Is very little
cigarette smoking among our baseball
boys. We find that those players who
smoke never amount to a great deal in
the profession. and would say that this
goes for all professions
Branch hickey. manager Of the St
Louis Browns: II have never used pro-
fame language; neither do smoke, chew,
or drink
Hugh Jennings. manager Of the Detroit
American League club: My advice to-
both young and old, would be
to shun the use of tobacco in any form,
and also the use of intoxicating liquors"
Home Run Baker: Leave cigarettes
and tobacco alone. and don't touch booze

CUBA TAKES EXCEPTION

Minister Says European War Will
Leave Islanders With $300.0O0.0O0

ASKS EXAMINATION OF FACTS

DR.. Carlos Manuel de Cespedes, Cuban
Minister to the United States, takes ex-
ception to statements made by Secre-
tary of Commerce Redfield. John Bar
rett and others, that United States man.
ufacturers ought to be cautious how they
extend their credits in South and Gem
tral American countries until Latin
America has recovered from the shock
of the European war. The Cuban Min
says, in part:
81 find It my duty to state publicly,
that at least Cuba, as far as she Is in
volved, should be excluded from any such
generalization and warnings, because my
country's conditions and outlook are alb
soluteIy different
''In fact, Cuba is one Of the very few
countries. that will profit by this war
Our principal product is sugar. Having
produced 2,6oo,ooO English tons during the
last grinding season, under strained cir
cumstances due to low prices and the
general financial crisis. 1t is safe to cal
culate that we will produce and sell at
remunerative figures at least 3.OOO. 900 tons
in the course of the next season.
This means. as a well-known Cuban
banker summed up with me q few days
ago. from $500. 100000 to $3.50. O0.O0O ex-
port, aside from other articles such as
TOBACCO, Grult, vegetables, nne wood,
minerals and so forth; and a large part
Of this income. therefrom derived, surely
will be spent in buying products OF the
soil and the industries OF the United
States.
Transportation to and from Cuba is
assured by a number of first-cIass lines,
such as the Ward, Munson, United Fruit
Company, United S. S. Company, and
others.
American business men may feel sure
that every dollar sent to Cuba will return
high interest and place my country in a
situation to buy a still larger quantity OF
American goods The moment seems pro-
pitious to draw the attention of the
American public to the great opportu-
nitie offered by Cuba for the safe and
profitable investment Of capital
Last, but not least, 1t is important to
notice that all Cuba's banking business
is done in New York.
II invite examination of the facts and
will furnish all data required. Moreover
the Cuban consuls have received orders
from this legation to especially attend to
all demands Of information coming from
business firms, manufacturers, news
papers, and persons interested"

A very pleasant party enjoyed the
weekly gathering of the Snow-Shoe
Club last Wednesday, although only
a very small handful of snow-shoers
partook of the pleasures of tramping.
There were about so dancers and
diners, who passed the evening in
the usual dual manner of combining
dancing and eating, and the commit
tee provided a substantial lunch of
cold corned beef, escalloped potatoes
and ''fixins," that was greatly en-
joyed.
An innovation will be on the card
for this week, in that the supper will
not be served at the hall. At the US
ual hour the club will gather at G. A.
r. hall and about 10 p. m. in body
will proceed to the Baptist church,
where the church ladies will have
ready a bountiful lunch. Then the
club will journey back to the hall, and
enjoy dancing until the 'Witching
Hour" This arrangement does away
with the need of a committee and
is very timely, too, because the entire
club membership has all served on a
committee at one time or another.
1t is probable that a week from to-
night, a sugar party will be arranged,

Season Has Not Been Entirely
SatisfactOry-Played Heavy
Teams

season Has Not Been EAOAcAy
Heavy
Teams
The Academy basket ball season
was hardly a success, judging from
the game results One win In SIX
games is not a pleasant retrospect,
yet in all but one game the Academy
played an even game with their OPP
ponents, and were finally beaten
through superior condition and prac-
tice. The only win-that over New
port was Offset partly by a later de-
feat at Newport, yet misfortune
was present in the shape Of a Grip
pied lineup and unfamiliarity with
the hall. The high water mark of
the season was the game at Barre,
marked by exceedingly brilliant in
dividual playing. but the Newport
game here was the best example Of
basket ball playing, in all depart
ments. One point to be noticed in re-
gard to the schedule, is that the
games were all with the shiftiest and
heaviest school-boy teams i'll the
state and no "easy" games were
scheduled to fatten the win column.
Montpelier, Newport, and Spauld
ing High, all boosted exceptionally
good teams this year, and all claim
the state championship although
Montpelier appears to have the best
claim.
Captain Harry Salman was the in
dividual high scorer. getting "a
points from the floor, and 1 8 on fouls.
Raymond Fisk came next with 81
points from the floor and 1 foul. The
other points were distributed as fol-
lows: Hill, IL; Gibson, 8; Stevens,
4; and Elliott, 2.
The Academy game was marked by
brilliant guarding, spectacular, but
erratic and therefore only partly
successful work by the forwards, anc
mediocre playing by the center men.
The team played as follows:
Forwards, Salman and Fiske; Cen
ter, Hill, Guard, Gibson and Elliott,
