BROOTEN
From the Review

A big dance and basket social will
be given for the benefit OF the base
ball club on Friday evening, March
18th. All the ladies are requested to
bring baskets. Brooten will have
fast team this season as there are
several new players who will endeaV-
or to make the team all of whom have
a record on the diamond. The best of
music will be furnished for this oc-
casion. This is going to be the big
event of the year, so come. Dance
tickets may be purchased from any OF
the local base ball players and true
fans If they ask you to buy ticket,
don't run, as it means lots of good
baseball this summer. Everybody
should buy at least one ticket it not
more. Are you going to do it?
(Sauk Centre enthusiasts endorse the
methods of her neighbors and are
straining their energies to put fast
team in the field.)
