block when Morgan hit safely to right

Exactly 6.1o4 fans turned out for the
contest, and 2.387 attended the morn
ing game In view Of the recent poor
record Of the team. this may be consid-
cred gratifying. and lends color to the
generally accepted behef tnat II rs IS
crowds here this year has been so
small. In former years Washington
had the reputation Of better supporting
loser than any city in the circuit
ed the games when the team was in
last place or close to 1t, with no hope OF
lettering it's position. With the COM
ing Of Clark Griffith. when 1t ceased to
be q chronic loser. the attendance did
not increase in proportion to the inn
provement In the work Of the team.
Even with the Griffmen in last place 1t
is likely that fairly large gatherings OF
fans would be seen at the Georgia ave-
nue. grounds daily, II the government

compelled to work overtime. due to the
war.
Timely hitting in four different in
nings of Gallia and Ayers. who reliev-
ed him, enabled the Red Sox to amass
four runs, one at time, In the morn-
ing game yesterday. Ernie Shore proved
a puzzle to the Griftmen for the first
five innings, in which he permitted only
one hit, but in the sixth they found his
range. eight hits in three innings ac-
counting for three runs, he being taken
out after three safeties had produced
run in the eighth. Bader. who took his
place, with runners on second and third
and one out, got by by tanning Smith
and causing Morgan to ground out. He
was in trouble in the ninth, due to Ain
smiths single and q pass to Judge, but
worked out of 1t.
In the fourth inning. when Foster
threw out Hoblitzell at the plate. Hob
by's spikes lacerated the index finger
of Henry's right hand and the catcher
was compelled to retire. He il not ex-
pected to be out of the game long, how

OLD SETTLERS REUNION AT
 ACORN WAS GREAT AFFAIR
Feature of the Thanksgiving Cele- braiion Was the Feast, but Fine
 Talks and Good Will Helped.

The Old Settlers Reunion al Acorn on Thanksgiving Day was we'll att tended considering the threatening weather. \ crowd of about i50 lis tened attentively to a masterly ser mon from Rev. W. l.. Smith of Mena on the text "The righteous shall flourish like the cedar of Lebanon. After a touching benediction by i Hardy Jones. tables were laid in the auditorium of the school house, as the day was raw and cold, and a bountiful repast was served to inc crowd. The beauty of the dinner was that it was all grown in Polk county, Arkansas. Baked. stewed, and fried chicken. and chicken pie, roast ham. fried shoulder and ham, garnished with all kinds of vegeta- bles and salads made the tables grOan beneath their delicious load. Thanking the meats and vegetables were pies and pies and then some more pies. The fayorite kind was of course the Thanksgiving kind, pumpkin. but in addition there were fruit pies of all kinds. supported by many kinds of cakes. Acorn cooks have long been proverbial- for their ability, but this time they fairly Outdid themselves.
 It was a crowd of hOmefolks and homely jest and repartee brought hearty laughs, not because of their wit, but because of thankful, happy hearts. After a hearty dinner the audience listened atentively to a poem written for the occasion by J. D. (Dad1 Garland, who was kept at home by illness.
 Then came splendid address on Education by Prof Tom ]. Wilbanks. Then County Superintendent pigg made an interesting and witty talk. At the conclusion of this Aunt Laney 0wens interested the audi ence with her "reminiscences of the early days. extending clear back to 1851 when her father settled in Polk county At this time they only had four neighhorss and two of them were over five miles away. Mrs. J, D. Garland's talk was mostly of the carly days of the Acorn school. of which her husband was the first teacher. The contrast between the Vl NtiVct 9tdliN uUNSs but short terms of school and the facil- ities offered today helped the young folks to realize how much better on they are than their fathers.
 The conclusion of the program was composed of recitations by Dole Barron and Ethel McWilliam. which brought great applause. Prof Har- ris closed the program by talk on the club work in the school. On Brother Smiths departure he thanked the audience for the oppor- tunity to talk to them and told them he wanted another invitation and served warning thai if they did net invite him he was coming anyway The community meeting and dinner proved so enjoyable that many sug- gested repetition al least once each three months and the crowd voted Aye
