The high school auditorium was
crowded last Sunday morning for the
Ascension Day service to which all
the churches had accepted the invita-
ton of the Knights Templar to join
with them. There were thirty-eight
Knights of Malta Commandery and
visiting brothers in the line of march.
A choir and male quartet made up
from the various church choirs rem
dered beautiful music for the SER
vice. The service was conducted by
the Prelate, Sir Knight Herschel
Horn. The address was made by E.
Sir Charles H. jacobson of Denver,
Grand Recorder of Colorado Grand
Commandery. The speaker needs no
introduction to Lamar Masons but it
was his first address here outside
the fraternal gatherings. He has few
equals as an orator in Colorado and
none with a more important message
to spread. His address was on the
mission and life of Christ and the his
tory and purposes of the Knights
teresting manner in which he handled
these great subjects made deep i'm
preston on all who heard him, and
his strong faith and christian enthus-
iasm is contagious and cannot help
but have benefcient influence wher-
ever he speaks. His position as sec
rotary of all the State Masonic organ
izations makes his influence more ex-
tensive than any other man in the
state, and it is always used on the
side of morality and high ideals.

The tie which has existed since the
start Of the Arkansas Valley league
was broken Sunday when the Lamar
COW pullers mixed things with the
Rocky Ford melon rollers and brought
the latter back in the milk pals.
A big delegation Of both lady and
gentleman fans went up on No. IL
to root for the home team and accord
ing to Brother Lacey Of the Gazette
Topic they did fine job of it, and
all got their moneys worth.
The game was close and exciting
all the way until the first half of
the ninth. Lamar led until the fourth
and it was tie until the eighth
when the melon rollers made it to
4 in their favor. Then came the fire.
works. Every member of the Lamar
team took a good heavy crack at the
ball and when the smoke cleared away
seven runs were in. Littler then turn
ed the Fordites down in one, two
three, and it was all over.
Wallace was unable to play owing
to his injury in the La Junta game,
and Captain Skinner played first and
Petrie took his place in center field.
Littler continued his splendid work,
striking out ten men, and the entire
team kept up its heavy hitting. La
mar has the top of the league stand
ing now and expects to keep it right
along.
On Saturday the fourth game will
be played in Las Animas, and on Sun
day the boys will be home again and
play the fifth game here. Everybody
should turn out and give them the
rousing welcome they are entitled to.
The following is the box score Of
the game:

WE MET THE ENEMY
And What They Did To Us Only the
Hospital Records Can Fully
Show

The tie between the Federals and
the Irish Warders was played off on
last Tuesday and the result was we
Federals had the same kind of time
that Polly did when she leased the
bull dog. For an inning or two it
looked like it might be a real ball
game, but both pitchers and support
went to pieces and after that it was
almost impossible to keep the score.
T. J. Sayler who manipulated the
Burger score board had $50 to 400
marked up at the end in favor of the
Irish, but we hardly believe it was as
bad as that. He had fifty bet on the
Irish and we feel he was trying to
make sure of his money. We intend
ed to print the box score, but the
strain broke down the adding ma
chine and we have not sufficient force
to do the computation by hand. 1t
was plenty, however, for the present
and Capt. Marx of the Federals says
he won't play again until he catches
up with that home run hit from
Adams bat When last seen before
being lost in the dust the ball was
gaining fifty yards minute on him,
and it is uncertain just when he will
reach it.

stantly hanging over them. Only the
most reliable companies, however,
can be relied on to pay losses of this
character. The Home Insurance Co.

in the world and never has hesitated
to pay any loss it has sustained. The

BOIL WEEV|L IS
 SOUGHT BY BIRDS
Orioles, Swallows and Night hawks Natural Enemies
 of Cotton Pest.

Of all the birds known as natural enemies of the cotton-boll weevil, swallows and nighthawks are the most important. according to the bio logical survey. Insect specialists of the bureau have made extensive in vestigatio1 of the subject, which have developed that there are 60 kinds of birds that eat the weevil.
 The nighthawk, or bullbat, catches the weevils on the wing in consider able numbers, especially during their migration. Unfortunately, the night hawk is shot for sport or eaten for food in some sections of the south, as compared with the services it renders the cotton grower and other agriculturists. and every effort should be made to spread broadcast a knowledge of its usefulness as a Weevil destroyer, with view to it's complete protection. The orioles, barn swallow. rough-wing swallow, bank swallow. cliff swallow, and the martin are all persistent enemies of the boil weevil
 From the standpoint of the farmer and the cotton grower these swallows are among the most useful birds. Es- pecially designed by nature to cap ture insects in midair. their powers of flight and endurance are unexcell- ed, and in their own field they have no competitors. Their peculiar value to the cotton grower consists in the fact that, like the nighthawk, they capture boil weevils when flying over the fields, which no other birds do. Flycatchers snap up the weevils near trees and shrubbery. Wrens hunt them out when concealed under bark or rubbish. Blackbirds catch them on the ground, as do the killdeer titlark meadow lark. and others; while ori- oles hunt for them on the bolls. But it is the peculiar function of swallows to catch the weevils as they are mak- ing long flights. leaving the cotton fields in search of hiding places in which to winter or entering them to , continue their work of devastation Martins are not at all fastidious about the outward appearance of their | dwellings, and large gourd suspend ed from the top of dead tree or a pole, or aany kind of weather fight

sioners, and the permanent drawing follow without delay.
 While the commissioners are in California the active work was com menced by the Pathe motion picture concern, in preparing the Arkansas moving pictures tc be shown daily in the Arkansas building during the ex- position The pictures are being made in Hot Springs. but all other sections of the state will be visited before the work is completed.
 The campaign for the funds starts as a work of patriotism, and the
 greater part of the funds to be gath
 cred must be supplied by patriotic cit
 izens. The site at San Francisco costs the state nothing, but there the free
 work ceases. The building will cost about 10000. for the commissioners expect to make it thl.,g of beauty, and hope to fill it so full of Arkansas products that California itself will be OutShOne.
 The money to pay for the building is expected to come from the motion pictures Those who have things of interest they wish shown to the mill lions that will visit the Arkansas building. must pay for the film at the rate of $5 per foot. The commission CTS feel confident they will sell 5000 feet in Arkansas. which will pay the Pathe people for the making of the pictures, and also for the building. This camraign must be hurried one, for the building should be completed by the first of the year, or very soon thereafter.
 Russell Gardiner, St. Louis million aire buggy manufacturer, has offered $1O,OO0 if the people of Arkansas will raise $5O,O00 This will give sum suffilien to maintain the building during the fair, with a slight help from the legislature for gathering ex- hibits, and sending fresh ones to San Francisco every week. This will enable Arkansas to show fruit right along with California, and also to prove that great deal of the fruit sold with California labels, was grown in Arkansas, and shipped west to be packed under the seal of foreign state. Governor Hays counts the Gardiner contribution as good as won. for he believes there are enough patri- otic people to make up the required amount The work of raising this will be conducted by a central com mittee, with an organization in each county of the state.
