Three games will be played in New
Orleans. The first battle will be
played tomorrow afternoon, while on
Sunday afternoon double header will
be staged.
The Birmingham team enters the Sc
rieG with odds favoring them to win
the majority of the contests. The
Dodgers have the edge on the Brands,
however, as another victory to the local
clan will mean they are the southern
champions. Every effort will be made
by the local officials to win the open
ing game and thus cinch the title
1t is probable that Smoky Bob Love-
less will be used in the opening game
today. Loveless handled the Brands as
he wished here before and it is ex-
pected that the former Avondale star
will again be able to master the Cres-
cent City champions This will leave
Big Boy Ards to work the first game

more portrays the character of Frank

exuberant spirits and vivid imagination.
When his wife announces that her chief
desire in life is to haye him become a
Mason, Perry grasps the opportunity it
affords for staying out several nights,
explaining his numerous absences from
home by the logical statement that he is
spending his evenings at the Masonic
Lodge, undergoing the ordeals of initia-
ton.
One night wife delightedly announces
that her father, Grand Master of the
Masons, is coming to visit them. Perry S
agonized efforts to keep his father-in-laW
from discovering his deception, and the
fearful tangles in which he becomes in
volved thereby, eliminating in a situa-
ton which is one of the funniest climaXes
ever conceived, furnish the humor of the
farce, which is further heightened by
the fact that the grand MASTER has
also deceived his family, is not Mason,
and is constantly manufacturing other
deceptions to safeguard his first false
hood. How he is finally caught and cor
nered by his clever son-in-law, who

has created, ends the comedy in roar.

Law Should Be Repealed.
Very Unpleasant TO Pay Man
To Watch Landlord Work.

Delegate Delapane of Frederick coun-
ty, some time agointroduced ablll in the
Maryland Legislature to exempt Freder-
ick county from the Roadside Tree
Law" This law, passed at the session
of 1912, is a Statewide measure, Bnd pro-
vides that anyone who wants to cut down
a tree, even on his own property, shall
first procure permit from the State
Forestry Board The Forestry Board
then designates someone as deputy
Warden" or something, to represent the
Forestry Board and "supervise' the
chopping down of the tree or trees; on
ones own premises, and the person who
is chopping down his own tree on his own
property, or having it done, must pay the
deputy Warden, or whatever he Is
called, for the time consumed bY MIN
from the time he starts for the place
where the tree is located, watches, or
"supervises" the cutting down OF the
tree and then gets back to his starting
place, at the rate of 40 cents per hour,
net. One case is cited by Delegate Rice
of Frederick county, where man want
ing to cut down a tree on his own prem
ises and use the tree for locust posts,
and it cost him exactly 4.4O, and he did
all the work Except the ''supervising }
himself. The cost was divided as follows:
For the permit from the State Board of
Forestry, DO cents; for ten hours consum-
ed by the deputy Warden, Tor some-
thing), going to the place, "supervising'
Gust watching) the chopping down of the
tree, and returning to where he came
from at 40 cents per hour, $4.OO, making
a total of 81 40 for getting rid of his own
tree on his own premises, and doing all
the work himself.
When the provisions of Mr.. Delaplane's
Bill to exempt Frederick county from the
operations of the law became known re-
Gently, through committee hearings, and
by j. quiry and discussion, there has come
to the Frederick county delegate a re-
quest from counties in all sections of the
State to add their county to his EXemp-
ion Bill, and the requests have reached
such proportions that the exemptions will
be almost Statewide. News.
