The most encouraging feature Of
the battle was the batting of Polly
McLarry and Cy Williams. Cy soaked
triple, double and single, and Nc
Larry belted triple and single. Each
of these batters swings from the left

Williams triple were made off south

McLarry so far has not been weak

slammed all pitching with equal
gusto, and, were the season to start

of nosing him out are becoming slim

well known literary men that they
have lost all appetite for modern
works during the war and turn back

is learned from the Libraries that
there has been great falling off in
the reading of modern fiction. What
part Of it the public likes bears di-
rectly on the war, such as "All for a
