PRINCETON LOSES
Foley Hands Princeton First Defeat
of the Season in Fast Game
:-
at the Fair Grounds.
Final Count to O-TwO Company G
Teams to Oppose Each Other
Next Sunday Afternoon.

The speedy Princeton ball team went
down to defeat for the first time this
season when the Foley aggregation
handed the locals the cipher end of
to 0 score -
The game was staged at the Prince
ton fair grounds, and the fans were
out in full force despite the clouded
skies.
Five full and complete innings were
played before the registering station
was crossed, Foley getting it's first
run in the sixth on two hits and a
couple Of errors.
Princeton put in a strong bid for
the game in the eighth round Young,
the first man up, connected for one
that carried him to second. Davis
followed with a hot one aimed at the
pitcher. Young was started for third
and arrived there just ahead Of the
ball which was thrown to that sta
ton. At this stage the Foley Jumps
proved conclusively that he was unfit
for military service, owing to defec-
tive vision. He waved the runner off
the field and that was the turning
point of the game. Instead of having
two on and no one down Princeton
had only one on, also one out, and it
took the heart out of the local pas
| timers.
Foley grabbed another run in the
ninth, and after blanking Princeton
left the grounds chortling.
Wilkes was ON the mound for
Princeton and delivered classy arti-
Gle of ball, but his support was
trifle wabbly at times. Skahen was
out Of town, and Hei1ig of Milaca did
the receiving, and got by in good
shape.
Kasner for Foley had real day on
and kept the locals guessing through
out. B. Nutshell also did we'll behind
the bat.
Jas. Nee and Carl Windblad were
the arbitrator. -----. 2. =. ..@

cred a talk on dairying that was chock
full of good advice, and State Auditor
Preus, who was present, delivered a
ringing patriotic address that ap-
pealed to all. Various foot races
were pulled off, and then tug of war
was staged with Dalbo heavy weights
on one end and a picked team on the
other. Dalbo won.
The ball game between Dalbo and
Stanchfield was a sizzling contest,
Dalbo carrying off the honors by a 2
to 1 count.
During the day the Braham band
discoursed some lively selections, and
added not a little to the enjoyableness
of the occasion.
The Dalbo creamery is prospecting,
and the officers and directors as we'll
as the buttermaker, are deserving of
credit for the success of the picnic.

SAG Realized for Red Cross.

The photo play, Cinderella, put on
at the Crystal last Thursday under the
auspices of the Civic Beterment club
for the benefit of the Red Cross, was
generously patronized and $46 was
realized for the worthy cause. The
production was simply delightful, and
young ladies from the various
churches furnished appropriate music
on the piano.
The ladies of the Civic Betterment
club are as loyal to the nation as they
are to Princeton, and they assuredly
are doing their "bit."

As to Politicians.
Whenever other subjects seem to
pail, the editors, particularly in the
large cities, can always take a fall
out Of the politician. The doings of
some politicians have put a sinister
meaning in the word politician
but in a republic every citizen ought
to be a politician. Our experience is
that, taken as a whole, the class gen
orally called politicians, men who
take interest in political matters, not
necessarily always with view to Of
fce or profit, stack up for decency
honor and honesty about as we'll as
any other lot of citizens. The crook
in politics deserves no consideration
and neither does the crook in business
or the professions.-Little Falls Her
