Weather permitting the high school
next Saturday afternoon with game
with the Montevideo high school team
at that place. The local boys have
been hard at work for the past few
weeks and right now are in pretty
good shape for a game. The exact
lineup isn't known at this writing but
the boys will all be in the game to
play their best, and it is expected they
will give good account of themselves.
Conway and Danielson will probably
occupy the tackle positions, Christof-
erson and Kvam the guards, "Pusk"
Swenson will be at center, with Os.
mundson on one end. The backfield
will be made up from Thunstedt, Wal
lie Larson, Edmond Nelson, Randall
Stockwell and Art Limperich. It is
probable that one of the backfield men
will be placed at the end opposite Os-
mundson for this game.
The Litchfield base ball team, COM
posed entirely of home boys, closed a
most successful season last week. The
team played fifteen games, winning
eleven of them. When one stops to
consider that this is the first team
Litchfield has had in several years,
they have made a record they may
we'll be proud of. Following is the
record they made during the season:
Litchfield, II; Darwin, 9.
Litchfield, s.; Darwin, 3.
Litchfield, 6; Eden Valley, 6.
Litchfield, 8; Atwater, 8.
Litchfield, g.; Eden Valley, z.

The following is taken from the
Litchfield Saturday Review: "The
Winsted hired team cost the manage
ment $4,000 this year, leaving a hand
some deficit for the business men to
contribute to. The Cokato nine cost
about $1,000 this season, it is said.

Resume of Work of Colorado Solons
Given In Detail

Denver, Colo, April 12-Prohibi-
ton and industrial legislation and
the enactment of measures calculat-
ed to result in the reduction of the
cost of state government constituted
the principal work of the twentieth
general assembly of Colorado, just
adjourned. The legislature began its
sessions on January and over one
thousand bills were introduced in the
house and senate during the session.
Many of the minor measures were not
considered.
The so-called prohibition law, one
of the first important bills to be pass
ed, is intended to enforce the state
wide prohibition amendment passed by
the people at the last state election.
The law becomes effective January l.,
1916, simultaneously with the state
amendment.

An Editors Commission

Says the Litchfield, ILL.,, News-Her-
aid: Not long ago a man came into
this office and stopped his paper be-
cause he said it was always printing
a lot Of things about the same people
and he said he was sick Of it. Now
country the government appoints a
commission to investigate and find
out what is the matter, and the first
thing a commission investigates is
the man who made the boiler to see
if the boiler was a reasonable one.
So we appointed a commission con-
sisting of ourselves to investigate this
man. We just followed the mans ca
reer ever since we knew him. The first
thing that happened to that man was
that he wos born, but he had nothing
to do with it. However, we mention
ed him, although his parents were en-
titled to the credit. When he was in
his early twenties he got married.
We mentioned that, including the
name of the bride, preacher, etc, in
fact we mentioned everything but the
preachers fee, which was not worth
mentioning. We never mentioned the
fact that he never won any premiums
at the county fair, because he never
exhibited anything. We never mem
toned his name in the list of COM
mittees, because he never attended
anything. We never mentioned his
name in the list of donors, because he
never donated as much as a doughnut.
We certainly have been treating this
man shamefully, but we will agree to
run nice obituary when the time
comes.

You may write thousand letters to
the maiden you adore,
And declare in every letter that you
love her more and more,
You may praise her grace and beauty
in thousand glowing lines
And compare her eyes of azure with
the brightest star that shines.
If you had the pen of Byron you
would use it every day
In composing written worship to your
sweetheart far away;
But the letter far more welcome to
an older, gentler breast
Is the letter to your mother from the
boy she loves the best.
Youthful blood is fierce and flaming,
and when writing to your love
You will rave about your passion,
swearing by the stars above;
Vowing by the moons white splendor
that the grille you adore
Is the one you'll ever cherish as no
maid was loved before.
You will pen full many promise on
those pages white and dumb
That you never can live up to in the
married years to come.
But a much more precious letter,
bringing more and deeper bliss,
Is the letter to your mother from the
the boy she cannot kiss.
She will read it very often when the
lights are soft and low,
Sitting in the same old corner where
she held you years ago.
And regardless of its diction or its
spelling or its style,
And although its composition would
provoke a critics smile,
In her old and trembling fingers it
becomes a work of art,
Stained by tears of joy and sadness
as she hugs it to her heart.
Yes, the letter of all letters, look
wherever you may roam,
Is the letter to your mother from her
boy away from home.

Boiling II Down

There is a rule in most newspaper
offices that matter shall be "boiled
down." and that the short method of
expression shall be used when pos
sible. This boiling down process is
done by the editors, of course, but
here is case where a compositor got
in his work, and it went through with
out detection. An enterprising press
agent for one of the theaters wrote
an advertisement in verse for a GER
tain play, two lines of the effusion be-
ing:
From half past eight to half past
ten,
You laugh and laugh and laugh
again"
Now, the compositor, thinking,
doubtless, that this was a case for
condensation, made it appear in the
paper thus:
From $3.50 to 1890,
You laugh and laugh and laugh
again"
You may be sure that one man, at
least, didn't laugh when he saw the
lines, and that was the press agent.
