C@HAUTAUQUA PLANS
IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENTS TO
BE MADE AT GROUNDS-TO j.
BEGIN AT ONCE.

At a meeting of the directors of
the Chautauqua association held Sat-
urday evening in the office of George.
r. Farmer, it was decided to make
extensive improvements of the prop
erty at the lake. Among the most
noteworthy is the building of a pa
vilion and boathouse, and the addi-
ton of two stories to the north por-
ton of the hotel. The contemplated
improvements will involve the ex-
penditure of $4,000.
The pavilion is to be 10S feet long
well beyond the water line into the
lake. The first story will be of ce-
ment. Above this will be the wide
pavilion, with its floor practically
level with the surrounding ground.
The location will be just west of the
present boathouse. The lower or ce-
ment portion of the building will be
used as a boathouse, part of which
will be rented for the storage and
safe keeping of boats and aquatic
equipment. The estimated cost of
this building will be about $4,000.
The north side of the hotel, what
has been lately used as a dance hall,
being only one story in heighth. will
be made three stories, to conform to
the heighth of the rest of the build
ing, thereby adding 80 rooms TO the
capacity of the hostelry. A store
building 1924 is to be erected also.
There are other improvements order

He GOT THE RING FIRST
Young Man Prepared for Wedding and
Did Not Worry About the
Girl.

Cleveland, O.-Here's a young man
who believes in the efficacy of pre-
paredness.
With his young wife he appeared
recently before Frank NJ. Kenney,
chief clerk of local board No. z at
Central armOry.
"When did you buy the ring?" Mr..
Kenney asked.
There was some discrepancy be-
tween the answers of the bride and
the bridegroom and the clerk pressed
for an explanation.
"Well, I'll tell you the TRUTH" the
mar replied. "SOme years ago | bought
a watch on the installment plan and
when it was paid for 1 thought the
idea was a pretty good me l figured
to myself that some day I might want
to get married, and thought it wouldn't
be a bad idea to get the ring on the
same PLAN"
"You NEAR you got the ring and
kept it in your pocket until the right
girl happened along?' Mr.. Kenney in
quired.
'That's just it, mister" the youth re-
piled, unabashed. This is the right
girl, and we's just got married"

ITALY LIKES BASEBALL
Most Recent Victim of National
Pastime Germ.
Football Popular as Well as Diamond
Sport-Favored by Military
Leaders.

New York.-One of the curious eff
fects of the war is the international
interest which has been aroused in
American sports. Italy apparently is
the most recent victim of the baseball
germ, according to DR.. Felice Ferrero,
director of the Italian bureau of in
formation in this city.
Football, as played in America, as
well as the national game of this coun-
try, also has taken hold of the popular
interest in Italy. The GaZetta dello
Sport, one of the most influential sport
fund for the purchase of b~aseballs,
bats and footballs and the distribu-
ton of prizes among the soldiers to
stimulate competition.
General P%ennella, commander of the
Second Italian army, in a letter to the
Gazetta dello Sport, says that football
and baseball games are of inestimable
value in the training for war. He
praises the initiative of the Gazetta
dello Sport and says that he firmly be-
lieves that the stimulation of baseball
and football competition among the
various units of the Italian army will
have the most gratifying and impOr-
tant results in maintaining the morale
of the troops. General Pennella is es-
p%ecially pleased with baseball as an
aid to training and the maintenance of
the morale of the troops.

SELECTED BY NAVY; DRAFTED
Man Is Accepted for Service in Army
After Qualifying as
Postman.

Corvallis, Ore.-Ernest Chase, rural
mail carrier, enlisted in the navy.
After his final physical examination
he was discharged as being physically
unfit. Then he got a job as rural car
rier and invested $40 in a rig, horse
and outfit. After working 20 days he
was called in the military draft, passed
by the local examining board, and Or
dered to camp.
He doesn't know now whether to
sell his rig and give up his job, or
whether to take a "lay off" and trust
to being rejected by the army as he
was by the navy.
