NO Regular Work"

A friend of Mrs. John A. stanton.
wife of missionary al Sagada. in
the Philippine Islands. says OF her.
she hasn't any regular work in the
mission--uone at ALL except teaching
the girls how TO sew and make lace,
the boys how 10 cook, do the house,
work and garden; the treatment OF all
the sick people and animals in an
enormous mission; the keeping of her
own house with skill and energy on
a remote mountain top; the entertain-
naent OF all expected and unexpected
guests in n place where hospitality
is enjoyed by scores; to be the general
adviser in the councils of natives and
whites alike. and to adopt and care for
the needy orphans.
Being thus free from care she Is
always ready to volunteer for trips
over the trails, sometimes occupying
five or ten days, to relieve suffering
and to carry the message. For days
she may not see a white man; she
will eat and sleep in native houses:
sometimes wading rivers when the
bridges arc gone and again collecting
natives TO repair breaks in the roads.
This is part of the fun that she gets
out OF being a nlissionary's wife,

vICRANS WHIP
TEAM IN OHIO

Thanks to Rus Hawehotte, who
twirled the best game of his career, at
Somerville, Ohio, yesterday afternoon
the Vigrans S. A. l.. team triumphed
over the Ohio city by shutout win
ming to 0. Opposed to Rus on the
mound was Lofty Fox, last years
Rushville HEAVIER The local lad had
by far the best of the argument, Civ
ing but four hits and striking out fiji
teen.
1t required eleven innings for the
Vigrans to gain the decision. They
came across with the two runs when
Stephenson singled and went to third
on Miners clout to right. Stephenson
scored on Sittloh's sacrifice and Min
Ter came in on H. Hawekotte's clean
bingle good for a base. Somerville
could not come up in the teams time
at bat, but four men facing Rus.
The game was attended by probably
the largest crowd which has attended
game at Midway Park for several
years and all were willing to concede
that the best team won. They hoped
the Richmond team would be booked
for return engagement II. Hawekot-
tie was the bright spot in the hitting,
bingling two out of four ximes up.
Williams who has been playing with
the New Paris Grays was on short for
the Vigrans and will remain there the
rest of the season.
