WALK TO WORK AND TAKE
LUNCH is NEW SLOGAN

Walk to work and take lunch"
This latest slogan is suggested by
IA local man, who believes that there
are too many people riding and buying
lunches who might just as we'll be
walking and carrying their own
lunches.
that quite a number of school chill
dren living a short distance from
school ride and buy their lunch in
stead of having it prepared for them. "
The movement. the local man be-
lieves. would relieve congestion on the
cars and improve the health of the
walkers and encourage thrift in saving

MARATHON RACE
 IS A GOOD ONE

Stewards annual marathon race, one of the most original events perhaps pulled of anywhere in the world, started at the crack of the pistol sharp at six o'clock last evening from the Bank of Seward corner. There were three entries, Joe karaotf, Dii. kott and oung MaoSen. haraott won first money his time being 5S:3O. kOtr was second man in, his time be- ing 60 minutes. MadSen did not reach the top but stopped, claiming that ow- ing to a bite of a dog yesterday morn ing, pains in his right leg prevented from continuing the race. The dog took nip at MadSen'S leg yesterday morning when he made the race up the marathon mountain and back in record time. One watch gave his morning tly-out at 52 and another watch at 54 minutes. ....
 In the race last night Koff the sec ond man to cross the tape, was the first to go around Mike Johnson, pivot man. Rolf reached turned the pivot at .6:4l. Karaof rounded the pivot four minutes after but gained his lost time and out distanced his competitor by a minute and a half on the race down the mountain.
 Both of the men who made the race are Russians and have been working in the yards for the commission. They are both bunch of muscle and were in excellent condition.
 Last year the race was won by Tom Hardof his time being 57:39.
 During the race several hundred watched the men going up and coming down, but owing to the sun only those with exceptional eye sight or with glasses could follow the race from the timber line to the top and back to the timber. Several hundred dollars chang ed hands over the result of the race, many playing across the board.

The town nine won the baseball game from the Soldiers yesterday afternoon by the score of : to but it was not until the Soldiers had been re- tired in the first half of the ninth that the game had been cinched. The town nine won the game by hard work for practically all players seem hard on their feet the only hmbeling up they had being in the practice before the game was called. The soldiers played hard but they also showed that the diamond had not been used to any great extent, but the game was only played for the pleasure of the day so what is the use going into errors, ect. :?
 Brashear pitched the full eight in- nings for the soldiers with grab'em Looney behind the bat. The other players were Hannon, Young, Bedford Houston, Hooney, Norris, of the com mission and Doc Crosse of the Expl- orer. Doe" showed that he was some B. 5. player himself. He went in to fill up the nine. The Soldiers made two runs in the first; two runs in the third and one in the eight frame. Those who crossed the plate were Hannon, Looney, Young, Crosse and Bedford.
 Lucas pitched four innings for the Seward players with faithful flag strom behind the bat. Lien went into the box in the fifth inning for the re- mainder of the game, Lucas taking second bag. Like the Soldiers, the Seward nine was one man short and Broughton, of the Explorer pulled off the blouse of his "gob" uniform and went in to the field. While he has be- en on the water for several months, his diamond legs came back to him and he made good accepting all chances. The other players on the home team were Shellhorn, Reed, Adams Mathison and Painter. The home bunch made two runs in the second; two in the six tn and three in the seventh.
