THE MAN ABOUT
TOWN
The Spirit of Sportsmanship.

Things sometimes look differently
from the scorers box than they do
from the grandstand seats. The game
between Kendall and the University
of Arkansas Wednesday was greatly
marred by the enforcement of de-
oision, which in itself was perfectly
according to rules, but in violation
of the spirit of college sportsmanship:
The occasion was as follows: one OF
the Arkansas players reached first
safely, and the captain sent out a
runner to take his place. The man
who was on frs. left the base as soon
as his substitute arrived. The Ken
dali pitcher threw the ball to the
first baseman. who touched him, OH
the base. and the umpire declared
him out. The decision was based on
the fact that the Kendall captain or
the umpire had not been Informed or
the substitution.
There was at once roar or dlSap-
proval from the grandstand. the
umpire received the censure but he
had no recourse. What should have
been done, was that Kendall should
have waived the technical violation of
the rules and allowed the substitution
in the interest of courtesy and fair
play. BE it said that some of the
Kendall players wanted to DO this.
and it is unfortunate that the senti-
ment was not unanimous. for it never
hurts to err on the side of generosity.
The writer remebers a game be-
tween Cincinnati and Pittsburgh
many years ago. when once, strange
to say. the Reds were fighting for the
championship. Bid McPhee was play
ing second. and it was a question as
to whether he had touched player
sliding to his base. The players were
all excited and the umpire turned to
Bid and said bid, did you touch
him." Bid promptly answered mo
All over the country. the papers COM
mended him for this display of fair
ness. Be it said that on Wednesday

ANDERT SUCCUMBS
TO DREAD CANCER
Highly Respected Pioneer Citi-
zen of Glenwood Dies at
Home of His Daughter

Death came to relieve the sufferings
of August Andert early Thursday
evening at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. Henry Zimmerman, where he
had made his home for some time.
While death had been expected by
the family for several weeks it
came as a shock. Deceased was

circle of friends who regarded him
highly. The remains were taken to
Glenwood Saturday morning where
funeral services were held the same day
and the remains laid to rest beside
those of his wife in the Grove Lake
cemetery.
Mr.. Andert was a native of Ger

Of Mecklenburg- Schwerin sixy-seven

SiIos Beat Binders

Crops around Alberta are only fair
this year. The potato is the biggest
crop and although the yield is not as
large as desired, the tubers are larger
and sounder than for many years.
Hay will be another winner with corn
a close follower. Barley, oats and
rye turned out fairly good. Wheat
raisers are complaining but will prob
ably not profit by their lesson but will
sail right in for a bigger field next
year. 1t appears that it takes more
than one failure to convince them that
the silo is a better investment than a
binder. 1.-THE crops are not as good
as last year," said prominent farm
er near town Monday. II cut my
oats early and rain turned them black
but I have a fair yield at that. My
potato crop will not be as heavy as
last year, but the potatoes are large.
There are from five to eight in a hill
and the tubers are of a good quail
ity."

NEWS FROM ITALY
STIRS Mr.. LIPUMA
Man from Home of Napoleon
Bonaparte Hears of Broth
ers' Brave Deeds in War

News from PARKWAY Sunny Italy
came this week to thrill the patriotic
impulses of Frank Lipuma, farmer
near this village who has several
brothers and other relatives fighting
under Italian banners in the snow
capped mountain passes of northern
Italy where the ancient Austrian foe
is being beaten back, according to the
dispatches. Only words of cheer came
in the letter which told of the united
war sentiment and indicated all was
we'll in the country which was a Ger
manic ally when the war broke out.
Mr.. Lipuma arrived here last spring
and is devoting his time TO farming.
He is a native of the island of Cor
sica where his boyhood days were
spent a few miles from the birth
place of Napoleon Bonaparte who,
one hundred years ago was the war
lord of Europe and filled the position
so many attribute to the present en-
peror of Germany. Perhaps no spot
in Europe has seen SO much warfare
and bloodshed as the little island
which gave France her greatest mil
itary leader, and to Alberta an
Industrious and progressive farmer.
Mr.. Lipuma is a blue-eyed, mild
hammered man and bears no resem-
blance to the rest of his war-like
race. He says he is glad to be here
and would under no circumstances re-
turn to Corsica if required to remain
there. Therefore he will confne his
patriotism to a prayer for the sue

HAS new METHODS
TO REMOVE HORNS
Alberta Farmer Discovers Quick
and Easy Way to Rob Bossy
of Growing Glory

1t is not necessary to practice cruel
ty in dehorning cattle or wait till the
animal is mature to saw off its horns,
according to the statement of hu-
name stock raiser who lives near this
village. He says dehorning cattle by
present methods should be prohibited
by law.
81 have a better method of remov-
ing horns than saving them off. 1t
causes no pain to the animal and it is
not necessary to buy an expensive de-
horning outfit. Any woman or child
can operate successfully with my
method and l just wish the Tribune
would tell farmers about it," said the
man the other day as he urged that
his name be omitted because of his
becoming modesty over fears that he
will be hailed as great benefactor.
According to his method the animal
to be dehorned should be taken in
hand while it is still calf two weeks
old. he suggests dipping the finger
in water and then moistening the lit
tie bunch on the calf's head where the
horn starts. Then stick of caustic
potash should be applied till the spot
reddens, but it will not be necessary
to even break the skin. No horns will
ever appear on the head of any calf
thus treated, it is claimed. 81 have
often done this myself" says the
Alberta man, "while the calf has
been drinking, and besides shaking
its head because of a moments
smarting, no sign of discomfort was
manifested" Those who will have
calves to dehorn this fall should try
these recommendations. If the scheme
fails the horns may be chopped,
sawed or filed off when they ap-
pear.

A farewell party for the Arthur
Spaulding, ]. A. Weinand, George
Ghurt and Guy Stewart families was
held at the Star theatre Monday night
when the spacious hall was filled to
overfowlng. The party was given by
the Woodmen and Ladies Club and
was one of the most delightful social
gatherings of the season despite the
fact that it marked distressing event
in the social live of the village. The
evening was spent in various enjoy
able ways after which supper was
served. The Spauldings and Ghurts
leave in a few days for their homes
on their claims in Montana; Weinand
and family 20 to East Grand Forks,
and Guy Stewart and family will go
to live in Morris where they have a
handsome home where the Alberta
road strikes 9th street west. We all
regret the departure of these estim-
able people and part with them in
hopes that some day they will return
to Alberta where they have so many
warm friends. Mrs. Weinand and
children will remain here for about
three weeks. Their household goods
were shipped from here Monday.
