Snow Hill
Defeats Laurel
Score 10 to 0 in a Game That
was One Sided From The
Start TO The Finish.

The Laurel High School Baseball
team journeyed joyously to Snow Hill
last Friday afternoon. and after laboring
painfully through nine long innings,
during which they failed 70 score, they
iourned sadly back to their home burg.
Hayward was in the pitchers box for
Snow Hill. and his speed and curves
were too much for the Deawareans.
Sixteen of them famed the air. only
two men reached second base, and hut
one reached third during the game.
Hayward started the game BY striking
out the first three batters TO face him,
and kept up the good work by whiting
two in the third. two in the fourth two
in the fifth. two in the sixth. two in the
seventh ana two in the last inning
Only two hits. and both of these of
the scratch hit variety. We're made off
him during the game. Bradford was
behind the bat for Snow Hill. and he
caught Hayward in tine style. The
team backed him up spendidly and
showed Improvement both in field work
and at the bat.

Four charges against DR.. E. c.
Story, well-known local physician,
involving alleged violations Of the
statewide prohibition law through
the issuance of liquor prescriptions
were filed in the local superior court
during the past week by Prosecuting
Attorney Thos. l.. O'Leary. The first
two cases will be heard by a jury In
Judge Mitchell's department May Fl
and the others little later.
The first charge against DR.. Story
alleges that he issued prescription
for intoxicating liquor to J. E. Alex
ander April IA without good reason
for believing Alexander was sick or
needed the liquor for medicinal pur-
poses. The other charges are iden-
tical, based on prescriptions alleged
to have been issued by him to Don
Young, Robert Donaway and Robert
Dickgeiser.
DR.. Story was recently tried before
Police Judge Walter Crosby on a
charge of issuing a booze prescrip-
ton without specifying any directions

Revolution a DeluSiOn.
Superior strength alone could de-
feat Germany, he said, adding that
the belief that starvation or a revolu-
ton would overthrow the Hohenzol-
lerns was delusion. He expressed
the opinion that the entrance of the
United States with all her strength
into the war would greatly shorten 1t.
Had the pacifists succeeded in keep
ing this country out Of war, they
would have caused the nation to be
crushed by Germany later before a
world which would enjoy the spec
tacle, Mr.. Gerard said. If those who
oppose CONSUMPTION had succeeded, he
said, their success would have result
ed in greatly frightening the war. He
was unsparing in his ridicule Of pacif-
lists.
This country has suffered very
much from clinging to ridiculous and
Anticipated ideas about war;" Mr.. Ger
ard said. "None has been more
harmful than the idea that all this
country needs to defend itself is plen-
ty of men with rifles. Rifles play
rather a small part today in war,
which is carried on largely by ma
chimes, some of which are SO complex
and difficult to operate that a man
must be trained for a year or more
before he is fit to handle them.
"GOing to Be a Long War"
There is danger now of another
delusion, and that is that the war is
soon to be over. Don't believe that.
1t is going to be long war. The
greatest blow that we can strike right
now is to adopt the scheme Of selective
CONSUMPTION which President Wilson
is advocating. There could be no
better stroke for quick ending OF
the war than the knowledge in Ger
many that we have adopted compul-
sorry military service, and that we are
in the war in earnest, and with all our
power and resources.
1.-THE Germans are not going to be
beaten by an internal revolution.
They are not going to be beaten be-
cause they need food. They can get
along, though with difficulty, with the
food which they have. They need to
hold out till about July Is, when the
new crop will come to their relief.
The Germans rely largely on rye, and
that crop is ready at about that date.
1t will be very severe trial for them,
but they are the kind of people who
can do 1t. AS to the possibility Of a
German revolution, we might as well
put that aside. The Germans are not
the kind of people to indulge in revo-
lutions.
"If we had not entered this war on
the side of the allies, we would have
been forced single-handed to fight the
Germans at the end of this war, and
the rest of the world would have
looked on with something like ap-
plause, because we had failed to do
our part in the war for civilization"
