MILTON NEWS.

Thanksgiving Day was an ideal day.
Like unto some, one often sees in hazy
October. A listlessness seemed to per-
wade all surroundings; a calmness had
settled over nature while the mellow
rays of the sun intensified a feeling of
ennui, or laziuess, that is somewhat in
herent, III many of us. Business was
generally snsp nded in town during the
day and the citizens scattered to various
fields of recreation. Many went gum
ming; those devotionally inclined attend
ed religious services; while others en-
joyed the day meandering around the
country. A union service of the two
Methodist churches was held at 10 80 a.
m. the Rev Zachary Webster, pastor of
the NJ Is. Church, preaching a grand
Thanksgiving sermon. A part of the
membership of both churches were pres
ent, but some who should have been
present were conspicuously absent. A
turkey supper was held in the late after
noon and evening in Masonic Hall, un-
der the auspices of the Usbers Union, of
the NJ +. Church. which was phenomi-
nal in attendance; the receipts approxi
mating Sl35.00. Everything passed off
pleasantly during the day, and closed
with an exhibition at Harry Robinson S
Moving Picture Show, the attendance at
which was unprecedented for. numbers.
Wednesday was an unusual day in
Milton, and there was some notOriety,
expected, to be gathered from the au
gust assemblage that were gathered here.

will be taken up again undoubtedly at

that the hospital was being kept up

FIRST GAME OF
BALL SEASON.
Game Saturday Between Dcnison and
Missouri Valley Schools One Of
Best Ever Witnessed Here
sEEMANN PITCHES 70 DENlsoN
Never in the History Of the High,
School Has There Been So Much
Interest Taken in Baseball

The Denison high school baseball
team played their first game of the
season last Saturday afternoon at the
Athletic park on the college. campus
with Missouri Valley, and after hard
fought game won by the score Of s to
q.
Never in the history of the high
school has there been so, much inter-
est in baseball as this year, and we
are told that this is due to the fact
that the boys have had Professor
Knowlton to coach them. They have
been practicing every afternoon for
several weeks, and two, full teams have
been on to diamond fer practice
nearly every day.
Saturdays game was one of the best
ever witnessed here in Denison be-
tween two high school teams, and the
boys played like veterans. Charles
Seemenn did the twirling for Denison
and although he didn't have lot Of
steam, nor did it seem that he had
much to offer in the way Of curves,
the visiting team was not able to con-
meet with the ball to any great extent.
In every inning except the eighth he
famed the batters out in one, two.
three order Through stroke of luck
in the eighth Missouri Valley managed
to slip in two scores, but at no other
time during the game did they have
the local boys ON the anxious seat.
Missouri Valley had very good team
indeed, but were weak on batting prac-
tice and couldn't strike the ball. 1t
was good clean game throughout.
and the usual rag chewing at ball
games was not res0rted to by players
of either team.
Another good game is scheduled for
Thursday tomorrow afternoon when
the local team will meet Lake City. 4
This game will he called promptly at
o'clock and it is hoped that large
crowd will be in attendance.

Denison team that played Saturdays
