Just now who the visiting club will be.
However, we can rest assured of being
furnished high class exhibition of the
great American game. You are all well
come.
Next Saturday the Gross Bros, team of
Minneapolis, will return for the second
game of their series and as they were the
victors on their former visit, it is up to
the locals to get busy and even things up.
So far this season the Cellar Colts have
been the only team to pull down the long
end of any series played on the home
diamond.
Our Institutional Dentist, DIR. Ray E.
Ramaker, is getting his operating depart
ment on little Ground Top" all fixed up.
He has had an up-to- date chair. cuspidor,
automatic drill and number of other
appliances pertaining to his profession
but the names of which we are not &C
quainted with; installed, and is now doing
a real pulling business, and say fellows,
his filling and repair work is right up to
the mark. Remember his is the only
painful method in the silent city. CThe

REGARDLESS of weather conditions and
everything else to the contrary, there was
a good showing of the outside fans at the
game Saturday. Among the number who
graced the players bench we noticed the
following prominent gentlemen from Still
water: B. j. Mosier; Hal Robertson;
Gene O'Neil; w. L. Pricer; James Foley;
A. A. Eevart; c. E. Mosier; MIR. Camp
bell; Mr.. Anderson; George and Fred
Lammers,-oh yes, and "Jake' Kollier;
last, but by no means least, for it is very
seldom indeed that the latter gentleman
is absent from any of our games. 1t is
certainly encouraging to have such rep
resentative group of successful and highly
respected men from the outside show such
an unmistakable interest in our welfare.
We extend you hearty welcome, Gentle
men. Come as often as convenient.
Mr.. Rosing resigned his position with
the institution last Tuesday and left for
Iowa where he is going to enter the State
Agricultural College and prepare himself
for practical farming which he intends to
devote his future efforts in, but on mod
ern up to date scale. Mr.. Rosing has
been a member of the institutional clerical
staff for the past three years and while we
are sorry to loose him, we certainly wish
him the greatest success in his newly
chosen field.

July is quite caustic in it comment of the
tactics of the press during the recent diplom-
attic crisis.
There has been a gradual but profound
change in the attitude of the press toward
war, as an evil in itself. Furthermore, the
public also becomes calloused and loses it:

editions and the demand for ''extras" begar
