K. |. 7. Standing
Games Today.
NFtFIFFND = WV
Henderson at Cairo.
Paducah at ClaEksV!lle.
Owensboro at Hopkinsyille.

Cairo won a game on her own
grounds yesterday. Hurray! And
from paducah, at that! And that
wasn't all of it, either. The local
team really showed up the Indians
in all departments of the game, and
should continue to do so the rest oil
the season. This makes two for
Cairo and four for Paducah. II
should be for for us and two for
Paducah, but there isn't any use
crying over lest games. so let Il
pass. II the boss gets All the play
ing out of the locals there is in
them Cairo fans, will have no kick
coming at the end of the season.
The score was G to and again the
local players got to II at the start,
making three runs in the very first
inning. This time, however. they
held the Indians of and kept them
from making any really dangerous
rallies.
Groean pitched for Cairo, and he
kept the eleven hits the official
scorer gives Paducah well scattered
out always tightening up when in
any serious difficulty. Mr.. Dooley
worked for the Indians, but in the
absence of his regular receiver, Mr..
ninncssy, he was touched up rather
lively at critical stages Of the con
test.
Grogan had the better of the ar
gument i'll the matter of strikeouts,
getting eight to his fellow country
mans three. All the extra base hits
were made off Dooley also. Wise
got one for three sacks and Hendee
Coy and Kessiing each came in for
4 two Dagger The Cairo team also
made two stolen bases, whilc the Wis
itors failed to get any. Each
pitcher passed one man.
Powell is still ont of the game
with a sprained ankle, and Hendee
took his place in the right garden
again, although compelled to limp
himself at his righ foot is sim some
what sore.
The game started at 2,i5 to n
low the visitors to catch & train for
Clarksville This was the last time
Paducah will be seen hero until
May 20. Henderson GENES today
for three games. Both Henderson
and Cairo have won two games and
lost four, and they will therefore
start the series on an even footing.
The home boys should take at least
two OF the three games without
much trouble, Barring bad luck
there doesn't seem to be any real rea-
son for their losing more than one.
Whether they do this well or not
will, however. be seen when the two
teams clash The Cairo team is can
able of good Glass = baseball. Here's
hoping they play it all season.

A NEW MOSQUITO REMEDY.

A San Antonio man has discovered way to rid neighborhood of mos quitoes by colonizing bats. The bats live on insects and mainly on mos quitoes, where these insects are plentiful. It is said that the aver age able bodied bat will consume 400 mosquitoes every night, and it is therefore obvious that if you can get enough bats to work on the mosquito supply it can be reduced to mini mum. pr. C. A. R. Campbell of San Antonio has invented q "bat bunga- low, where he colonized bats for the purpose of ridding the vicinity of mosquitoes. He has one bat bungalow near San Antonio that has 500,000 bat inmates which have cleared a mos quito infested district of the pests, and he claims that he can build bat bungalows that will rid any commun- ity of it's mosquitoes in short time. Without questioning. the statement that one bat can be depended on to devour 400 mosquitoes every twenty four hours and that half million bats can be colonized in one bat bungalow, it occurs to us that the best way to get rid of the mosquito Is to prevent him rather than to remedy him. A pool of water foot ia diameter will furnish mosuuitc rations for week. Why not drain J the pool and prevent the mosquitoes & l from breeding?
 Drainage is the one best bet against the mosquito. Gorgas elimi- Wted the yellow fever mosquito in Havana and in the eanal zone b, drainage, and New Orleans did the same thing by drainage and the use of oil. Malaria can be eradlcated b, destroying the mosquito and the wa,
 to destroy the mosquito is to rob hin of his breeding place.

the country were taken over tour
 of the state and shown it's resources l The erroneous idea that Louslana was a state of swamps was effectu- ally dispellcd, and now millions oi l people arc being told by the maga- zine editors the truth about Loulsl- ana: that it's soil and climate offers great opportunities to the farmer. The state is receiving publicity money could not purchase, and the investment was infinitessimally small when compared to the returns to accrue.
 Arkansas suffers ill the same way Louisiana did, although since the era started by w. R. Lighton with his Story of an Arkansas Farmer this state has received as much favorable publicity as any in the nation. Nevertheless, there are still people who do not know the truth about Arkansas; who believe there is lit tie here but swamp, and what 1sh | swamp is poor hill land.
 While the soil of Louisiana is fer tile as any, the Pelican states does not offer the same opportunities to the small farmer as exist in Arkansas. The soil and climatic conditions of Arkansas make it possible to grow here almost any crop, and it's proX- imity to the big markets ilsures good prices for the products if they are marketed properly. No state in the union produces better fruit than Ar kansas, and no crops bring more than fruit crops.
 The greatest inducement, however, is that Arkansas lands can be pur- chased cheaply lands hhat are ill every way the equal of those that are valued at from $50 to $500 in other states. The cause for this is that the state is just beginning to develop. In five years these lands will double in value.
 It. is to be regretted that the agri cultural department of Arkansas is not provided with sufficient funds to adequately advertise the resources of this great state ill some such man. ner as did the Louisiana people. If the editors of twenty farming maga- zines would tell their readers about the advantages of Arkansas; about the growing period; about two and three crops to a season: about the profitable stock growing possibilities all on lands that can be purchased for about SEQ an acre, there would be coming to this state ten home seekers to every one coming now. Home seekers who would not only make fortunes for themselves, but would teach us how to farm.

 ST. MATTHEW.
CHAPTER 21.

l And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Beth | phage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples, 2. Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straight way ye shall find an ass tied, and q colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.
 ;. And If any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
 4. All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
 ). Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Be- hold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.
 6. And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,
 '. And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.
 {. Aud d very great multitude spread their garments in the way; oth- CTS cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
 3. And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, say ing, Hosanna to the son of David : Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord;,. Hosanna in the highest
 10. And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
 Aud :,, is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
 F. And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrow the tables of the money changers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
 13. And said unto them, It is writ ten, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
 IA. And the blind and the lame came to him ill the temple; :, and he healed them.
 15. And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore dis pleased,
 16. And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and suck lings thou hast perfected praise?
 IF. And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodg- ed there.
 IS. Now in the morning as he re- turr cd into the city, he hungered.
 19. And when he saw fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And present ly the fig tree withered away. 20. And. when the disciples saw it they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away 21. Jesus answered and said unto them, Verify say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt net, ye shal not only do this which is done tC unto this mountain, Be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea; it shal l be done.

SAFETY IN THE STREETS.

ll spite of all that is said about careful driving of automobiles, every few days one reads of children, and sometimes elder people, who are run over in the streets. In large cities heavy truck wagons are also cause of much fatal injury.
 Various agencies are at work to compel drivers to maintain due vigil ance. But laws and regulations are difficult tos enforce There are ali Kinds of human types at the steerine wheel. Officers of the law do no, always want to see too much.

The street is not the safe place Il used to be. Before motors became numerous, the public highway was kind of common playground. Drivers of horses waited tolerantly while the kidlets reluctantly suspended their ball game.
 The hoofs of an approaching horse gave warning long before carriage was near. Now the motor slips up from behind with swift and deadly speed. While you are looking to the right, the machine has lodged out from some side street on the left.
 Every child ought to be carefully warned of the dangers of the street. On streets where there is any coasid- erable traffic, he should never cross without looking both ways.
 Many accidents could be saved if people were not in such a hurry Some persons seem to dislike to show reasonable caution. 1t takes but a few seconds for motor to pass, while broken leg would mean a month on your back.
 The manner in which some motor ists expect every one to make way for them is irritating Still human nature is as it is. One must adapt oneself do modern conditions
 If the pedestrian gets too wrathy over the arrogance of his automobil ing friends, he may very reasonably reflect that it is much easier for him to stop than it is to bring heavy machine to q standstill. That, how ever, does not excuse the motorist, Who should never run at speed which he can not check in time to prevent injury.
