In mobridge Games

For the first time this season,
the Lennon Giants were defeat
ed at the hands of the Mobridge
ball tossers on the Mobridge dia
mond on last Sunday in the first
of two of the hardest fought
games of the season.
The second game was won by
Lennon, the scores being 2 to
| and 7 to 6 respectively. The
first game was a pitchers battle
from start to finish and until
the last half of the eleventh inn
ing the game was anybody's.
Not a hit was allowed in the
game until the first half of the
ninth when Necklace landed on
the pill for single. In the last
half Burckhart got Mobridge first
hit, smashing out a three bagger
into center.
Neither team had a chance of
scoring until the first half of the
eleventh, when on a combination
of a walk, a sacrifice and an
error Baker of the Giants cross
ed the pan for the first run of
the game. 1t looked then as if
Lennon had the game sewed up
but, in the last half, the Mobrid
ge bunch filled the bases on two
hits and walk with none down
and with the assistance of the
fans who crowded out on the
diamond so that it was almost
impossible to distinguish the
ball players. pushed two runs
across the plate after Fly, the
Indian marvel pitching for the
Giants had made two of the
heavy stickers bite the dust.

Two Months
Work Reported
Miss Crosby Has Report Of Y.

Ready. Many Helped.

In these two months we have
tried to do as much as possible
with all the phases of the Y.

Through the employment bur
eau We have aided So woman in
getting work and tried to help
HH people find work. MANY of
these given positions were stran-
gers in the city and have come
to the office seeking council and
safeguarding. Many were tray
elers stranded for various rca-
sons. For instance, one a high
school girl going west with un-
certain train accommodations was
detained here three days. She
had but her carfare and was near
" heart broken when she found
the circumstances she must
brave. We soon found her a
nice place to work for "A few
days, then safely off for home.
Another. n nretty little orphan
girl only eighteen. was started
for Minneapolis to hunt hotel
work. She got off the train
from one Of the little western
towns and pufchashed her ticket
on to Minneapolis, then she
found she was penniless and was
to land in that big city at mid.
night. We persuaded her to
remain here and found her
good protected position.
Through our travellers aid work
we have been helping several
helpless girls. Through the phys
ical and entertainment branches
Of the work we have given a bit
of attention to the tennis courts;
to little spreads with different
lonely girls; have had several
busy bee circles together with
the girls rooming IN the Y, M.

To lead all to good healthy
religious life is the main spring
and underlying principle of all
our Efforts. The special services
held to this end have been men
tioned.in the monty report.

are limitless but one person can

fully demonstrated about year
ago when the creamery at Strool
burned. There was no insur-

them towards a new building,

that the creamery was rebuilt

Then Cynthia had done daring

for a young woman Of courage-Cyn-

a small part in the circus. Cynthia
thought it was with the lions. She
had gone, and had found herself one
of five hundred applicants. There were
tall girls and short girls, stout and
thin girls, spruce girls and slatternly
ones-but she-she was the one picked
by the manager.
Indeed there was nothing strange
about that, for she had that air and
breeding which we're sine qua non

was a miracle.
She was to be strapped into an au
