for a time the little life was dis
paired of; but we are glad to be
able to report the little one as
improving.

Landa Wednesday evening on
the home grounds which re-
suited in a victory for our boys
by a score of Z to 6. After the
game a basket social was held
in the school assembly room.
The sale Melted the boys the
handsome sum of $50 which
will greatly help the boys in
paying for their new suits.
Baseball is a good clean Anne
