LOCAL TEAM IS SERIOUS
CONTENDER FOR PENNANT.

The Paw Paw High school Base ball
team are beginning to COMPEL not
only the citizens of their home town,
but base ball fans about the county
to sit up and take notice. They went
to Lawrence last Friday and took the
formerly invincible Lawrence team
into camp by score of IL to 0. Then
again on Wednesday of this week,
The Kalamazoo Normal team went
down to defeat on the local grounds
by score Of to 6. The boys have
won every game with the exception
of one defeat at Allegan.- The feat
ure of the game here Wednesday was
a three bagger by Douglas Hindenach
with the bases full. The team begins
to loom up as a serious contender for
the pennant this year. Wake up,
Paw Paw and give the boys little en-
couragement. Let's bring the pen
nant back where it belongs this year.

zens Generally to Assist. Exercises

Who Wore the Blue.

Memorial day is fast approaching.
1t seems as though the day should
mean just little more this year than
ever before. Our country is at war.
Troops are recruiting, and war pre-
parations are under way everywhere.
1t is a sad thought to contemplate,
but it is not at all improbable that
by the time another Memorial day
shall roll around some of those who
will assist the veterans in proper
observance of the day this year, will
also be numbered among the nations
honored dead in that "silent city"
1t would seem eminently fitting then,
this year if never before, that every
citizen, man, woman and child in the
land should join together on Memorial
day to commemorate the valorous
deeds of that brave and mighty army,
and to pay tribute to those who so
gallantly gave up their lives for the
preservation of the Union. Their
footsteps are growing feeble and their
ranks are sadly depleted, but while
their is a single one left of that
magnificent army, let us meet with
them on Memorial day to do them
honor, and to show to them and the
world, our deep sense of appreciation.
Let us show to them that our hearts
beat just as loyal, and that we are
just as ready to make the sacrifice
as were they in the days of '61.
