Mrs. Ogden has accepted the
position of Primary teacher at
Solano, to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation and marriage
of Miss Lura Cunningham. The
shortage Of : teachers makes it
seem wrong for those who can
teach to remain out of the pro
fession, While we are sorry for
ourself = left to "Batch it again"
we are proud Of her for going.
The Solano School was the first
she taught after coming west
and she will be teaching the
children of some of her former
pnpils there. 1t all goes to prove
what we have often stated, that
it is useless to marry a School
maam" to reform them, it can't
be done. They'll break away
and 60 back to the school-room
at every opportunity.

from children who have lost their

I'd like to hear from Brisish towns
where sleeping babes were killed;
and from the traveller who drownd
torpedoed kaiserbilled. Alas, alas,
the dead can't speak from out
their martyr graves; and neither
can the sick and weak you drove

from that brave nurse who fell

a plan with you to shelve the

1t appears now that some mesa
farmers are going to be up again
st getting picking machines and
hand-picking their pinto peans
before they will sell in the local
market. The wet weather last
fall resulted in many beans being
discolored and these can be re-
moved only by hand-picking, the
market will not accept beans
with these faults and it is up to
the raiser to hand pick his beans
or stand a reduction on them
which would pay him well for
doing it.

Baker is Through With Baseball Now

When the war is over and the time
arrives for the reorganization Of various
ball clubs the Yankees perhaps will
undergo numerous changes. But for
the fact that the war has made baseball
cut Of the question for next season
Miller Husglns. always noted FOR his
trades and deals, would put in a very
busy winter The reorganization Of this
particular club can be postponed this
winter but 10 Is certain DO come.
One player who viii not be seen In
Yankee uniform or IN any other major
league uniform after the close Of the
current season Is John Franklin Baker,
the man who made world series home
runs famous, or gained nationwide
fame through these homers. Just as one
cares 20 view it Baker declares posi-
lively that this Is his last season I'm
professional ball and there are many
reasons for believing that he will stick
20 his resolution. Baker now IS 83 years
Of age and the travels OF baseball never
did appeal 20 him. As. Tar back as 1910
he declared that he was going back 90
his Maryland farm and would do no
more ball playing. but worlds series
divided that fall. when the Mackmen
beat the Cubs. caused Baker TO look
upon the game with more favor and he
came back 20 share in three more
worlds series as a member % the great
Mack machine He severed his rela-
tlon with the McGillicuddy forces IN
1914 and spent the t9i5 season at his
home In Trappe. Md, going out on Sat
urdays and occasionally on Wednesdays
for games with a nearby independent
Club.
In 1916 Baker was coaxed back into
professional ball with a contract call
ing for $4,000 for a period Of three
seasons. That contract expires with the
close Of the season now waning. and
Baker says he never VIII sign another.
He admits that he has been well treat
ed In baseball. but has tired Of The
game He FIRST Joined the Mackmen IN
1908, coming from the Tri-State League.
and has played with only two major
combinations. the Mackmen and the
Yankees.
Evening journal., 1918-08-23

Baker will be best remembered by
baseball fans as a slusger extraord-
mary. Ills hitting proved the most i'm
portant faotor IN the three worlds
series which tho Maokmen won between
the seasons Of 1910 and i9iL Though
not tho most graceful fielding third
haseman IN the game, Connie Mack
has gone on record as saying that Baker
was tho best third baseman IA the
American League during his stay with
the Athletics. barring the season Of
1912, when Larry Gardner outplayed
him. AS this praise was bestowed
after Baker had quit Comics club. the
remarks were particularly impressive.
Another strong point about Bakers
playing has been his accuracy In throw
Ing Miller Hugglna remarked a short
time ago that IN all his baseball career
no had seen no player who was 90 ao-
curate IN throwing across the diamond
as Baker Possessing a powerful arm
he takes more time than most third
basemen before letting the ball set
away and that has tended 10 make his
throws sure.
