When considering the defensive.
strength of a ball club the first
consideration is the pitchers.
High class pitching is the first.
thing manager goes after when
he is developing a ball club-and
rightly, for high class pitching
will win ball games with any kind
Of support while mediocre pitch
ing demands heavy hitting and air
tight fielding to get anywhere.
In short series the pitching
is factor of the utmost impor-
tancc, especially when hart-hit-
ting clubs like the Giants and
White Sox are engaged. !.

The Hal was packed and
packed and standing space out
side the building at the avail

crowded. With the chaplain pre-
siding, the program proceeded for
an enjoyable two hours. The
band furnished instrumental
pieces, Mrs. Lieut.. Shaffer sang
Holy Night" and "The Perfect
Day." and between musical num-
bers speeches were given by Col
onel Mollison, General Resche,
Majors, Pfaender, Duane, Brandt
and Merrill and finally by DR..
J. b. Hingeley, the father of
Captain Hingeley, who had been
a guest in camp for the past ten
days.
I think as these men spoke,
the pride of the soldiers for the
regiment became swollen to un-
usual size. A remark made by
Major Merrill, Senior Surgeon of
The regiment, is particularly
worthy to quote and has been
the cause of considerable happy
comment in every company,

The next day was Merry
Christmas. AS to temperature
it compared itself to a rare day
in June. A football game was
the attraction of the morning
between the Second regiment

 SLATED FUR JAN. 1

It has been definitely announced that the prices of Willys Overland cars will be advanced from $50 to $260, accord ing to the models, on and after Janu- ary 1, 1917.
 General Sales Manager F.. A. Hamlin of the central zone of the Pacific coast has just received notice of the price in crease and sent forward the informa tion to other southwestern dealers.
 In speaking of the new prices, Ham, lin says: The Overland factory has held off disturbing prices to the last minute, but the time has been reached where the wages of labor and the in- creased cost of raw material must be considered in marketing the product
 "The result is that the Willys-Over land company has had to raise it's prices along with the other manufac- turcrs of standard cars. We therefore have only our stock on hand, which has now been reduced to a small part of our reserved stock to supply retail sales and dealers orders up to the IAst oI the year"
