Sept. 5.-(Correspondence of the As

ion Of British aviators, is going to
change the character of the worlds
thought. It will have a broadening
influence and it will bring a fresher.
cleaner flow of ideas into the brains
of men. ~
A man, the flyers argue who has

Of Holland, and the smiling country
side of Belgium and France, is bound
to think in a different way than a man
whose horizon a always been bound
ed by bricks and mortar or even by
hill and dale.
Travelling may have made him think
nationally, but flying will make him
think far more largely. He will see
England and France lying close to
each other, separated only by a shin
ing strip Of water. He will see the
green and brown mosaic of Belgium,
which in its turn merges into the dis
trict shadow Of Holland, while. still
farther on, across the wide Scheldt he
will see the distant lowland sweep on
yer the rim Of the world.

Ireland has received a remarkable i'm
petus from The war. Before hostilities

Saturday Alma invaded the NJ. A.

The team started the game with

OPENING GAME

Thursday llelmer pitted his green
team against Mt. Pleasant Normal to
test their metal before the trip to NJ.
A. c. The game proved not to be a
test Of fielding but pitchers battle.
Each team garncred four hits and two
runs before the snow storm set in in
the seventh and stopped play. Boyne
and Sphinx, the Shepherd star, seemed
to be evenly matched Each had a
world Of speed and fast breaking
curve which fooled the batters com
pletely.
There is little 10 say of this game
because about all that either team did
was to walk three men up TO the plate
and then run out to the field and
watch the other team do the same
thing. Alma scored her two runs in
the third on walk TO Smith and two
errors, the last one fly to left by
Boyne. Mt. Pleasant came right back
and scored single by Sphinx and a
double by Vincent. They tied it up
in the sixth on hit by Wilson, two
stolen bases and an error at second.
