START PRACTICE
Base Hall Practice Under Way at
Alma College.

With the close of the basket ball
tonight, Coach Harry Helmer is plan
ning on getting his base ball candi-
dates all out for daily workouts in
the Alma college gymnasium and Is
in hopes of being able to round out a
good team TO represent the Maroon
and Cream this year.
The Alma Mentor will have ten
veterans 10 start the year with, men
who have played for the most part,
more than one year of college base
ball. and are fairly capable players.
Among this list is the trio of twirlers
that has held sway for the past two
seasons, Captain Depew, Johnston
and French. Depew and Johnston are
,outhpaw artists and French right
handler.
Coach Heimer is in hopes of being
able TO find a few, budding stars
among the freshies, who Will be able
70 patch up the couple vacant posi-
tons on the team and possibly to
strengthen couple of other posi-
tions on the nine.
Rumor says that when the prac-
tice gets well under way that Helmer
will be able TO locate Il number of
classy men among the freshies, who
will make strong bids for the team,
and some even go so far as to predict
that Alma college will have one of
the best base ball teams in years.
Helmer will work this year to keep
his pitchers in the best of shape. Last
season the team gave the pitchers a
number Of runs, but inability to keep
the opposing teams from battering
the Alma twirlers kept Alma from
winning a number of games. Alma
rcsembled the Detroit Tigers IN this
respect Heavy hitting doesn't al
ways count. when pitchers are not
IN shape to pitch the best kind of
base ball, and this will be the brand
that Helmer will insist upon

The Women's. club of Alma was
represented at the meeting of the fed
Grated clubs of the congressional dis
trict at Saginaw last week. A fine
program had been prepared Many
clubs reported and such feast OF
music was given that those who were
forced TO take the early evening train
given by the state president, Mrs.
Florence Bedson of Jackson. How
ever. the entertainment was very en-
ioyable.
Stockholders of the Western Car
buretor company OF this city are high
~ elated over reports that offers have
been made for this stock at more than
its par value. II is reported on good
authority that one holder of this
stock i'm Alma, was offered $500 per
share for his $1,000 shares last week.
The probable reasons for this is the
fact that the carburetors now in use
in Alma are proving a success,
and because of the large number of
orders which have come in for ear
buretors.
l.. Mitchell of the Ford garage re-
turned Wednesday from Champaign
and Urbana, Illinois. where he joined
his brother and exhibited the Western
Kerosene carburetor at the big auto
show held there last week Mr.. Nit
chell says the interest in the carbure-
tor was intense and that he met peo-
pl, who are using them III that terri
tory with great satisfaction. He could
have booked orders for more than II
hundred carburetors had he been sure
OF getting them, but considering the
fact that so many orders were already
booked for this years delivery. it was
thought best to not borrow any trou-
hl" by promising carhuretors and not
being able 20 deliver them

HAS MADE
APPEAL TO SCHOOLS

+ P. p. Claxton, United States COM
missioner of education, has issued a
circular letter to all school men
throughout the country urging hat
all kinds of educational institutions
should keep up their usual standard
regardless Of the war conditions.
The appeal received by Supt. F.. E.
Lurton of the local schools reads as
follows:
ut is Of the greatest Importance
that the schools of the United States
of all kinds and grades-public, pri-
vate and parochial-be maintained
during the war without any lowering
of their standards or falling off in
their attendance. This is necessary
both for the protection of our boys
and girls against many unusual temp:
tations to delinquencies of various
kinds, and that they may have full
oppeftuHity-fef pfepaEation-for-th
work of life and for the duties and
responsibilities of citizenship, all Of
which will require a higher degree
of preparation because of the war.
For many reasons there will be need
in this country for higher standards
in average Of ability, knowledge and
virtue, when the boys and girls now
in u schools have reached man
hood and womanhood, than we or
any other people have yet attained

Extractssfrom the letter follow:
We arrived in camp safe and
sound, everyone enjoyed the trip. ev-
en- more than the one to Texas over
a year ago.aWe arrived in ST. Paul and
laid over for about three hours. Had
a stay OF. seven hours in Chicago on
account OF. a break in u train. While
there we visited several places Of in
terest, including the big cathedral and
4. of G. home. From there we went
through q good many cities Of fair
size. but did not get off to amount
to anything until we arrived in Gin
cinnah. We spent several hours there,
having had to unload the horses. At
Nashville, Tenn, the Red Cross nurses
passed n served sandwiches and
was at Hot Springs. N. c., where they
hold the Kaiser's seamen prisoners of
war. The men sscheered and waved
their hats as tho train passed, but the
officers Just looked sdaggers at us.
THE country is something beauti-
full. Our route was along the shores
OF some rivers and streams. We cross
ed some of the longest and highest
bridges in the United States. We went
through tunnels and were smoked up
so bad that the only way you could
tell a soldier from the porter was by
his uniform We went along the sides
of the precipices and through the
Blue Ridge mountains, also the Smoky
and Alpachan hills. Some of the seem
cry we saw could not be described as
to their beauty.
I'VE finally reached Charlotte, N.
c., about 5 a. m. 1t is a city of about
$4,000 and is a very pretty place. Blue
laws are in effect in the town and you
cannot ever buy an ice cream cone on
Sunday. When you live in this town
you must go to church on Sunday, and
then take q soldier home for dinner
that is. II theresare any at church. So
that makes itss;wcrth while for some
Of these fellow who really don't care
about church.
We have fine camp here. About
10000 men from all parts of the
United States. The camp has K. C..
buildings and Z. M. c. A. places for
the fellows to hang out. Our camp is
right across the road from a K. c.
