CHURCH BASE BALL LEAGUE.
Standing OF the Clubs.

Perryville took fall out of Rising
Sun Saturday afternoon, on the
home grounds. The game was nip
and-tuck and was captured in the
last inning by the visitors. Two
runs were scored by the home team
in the first inning but Alexander
pitched such fine ball for the re-
mainder of the game that the Sun
boys could not connect again. Per-
ryville scored in the second and tied
in the ninth, the game going to an
extra inning, when Rising Sun went
up in the air and Perryville scored
two runs before the home team got
back to earth. Grubb pitched a
great game, but ragged WORK of his
team mates lost it for him in the

Peninsula horticultural Society.
The Executive Committee of the
Peninsula Horticultural Society has
decided to hold the next meeting in
Chestertown, Nd, on January G, z
and 8, 1920. It was agreed to en-
gage some of the best speakers to be
found anywhere in the country and
to make an unusual effort to have a
large exhibit of fruit and vegetables.
Premiums amounting to two thou
sand dollars will be offered, includ-
ing large prizes for those who exhi-
bit a great variety of fruit of the
highest quality and many prizes for
the smaller growers. With the
large number of apple growers all
over the. Peninsula who have pruned,
titled and sprayed with unusual care
this year, it is expected that the COM

The rains last week caused great
deal of damage to roads all over the
county. The most serious washout
reported is that of the big culvert
across the road leading into Back
Creek Neck. Only two or three years
ago this same culvert was swept
away in a flooding rain and when re-
built was not sufficiently enlarged
to carry such torrents as have fallen
in the past few weeks. The washout
cut the people below it off from the
Elkton7C Chesapeake City road except
by detour of several miles.

concerned with the long administra-
ton of DR.. Harter. Here is sketched
the history of the Delaware College
Agricultural Experiment Station,
and here too is chronicled the rise
and development of systematic
athletics. In Chapter Nv, "Expan-
sion," appears the story of growth
mainly during the administration Of
President Mitchell Here also are
treated military training and the
relation of Delaware College to the
War with Spain, and the world war.
The Appendix contains a rapid
sketch of the College from its found
ing in 1888 to it's suspension in the
spring of 1859.

Sunday afternoon, by a Ford ma

came from the opposite direction,
and made the turn from the detour

that the driver could not control his

in the side ditch. The Ford car was

NAY BUILD PACKING
 HOUSE IN GLENDALE

GLENDALE. May Erred Tribolet and J. c. Hurley of Phoenix, were in Glendale today looking over the town with the idea of selecting a location for packing plant. The company is all organized and has been contemplat- ing Phoenix and Tempe for sites for this plant. MT. Hurley stated that he believed Glendale to be the best and most central location being tributary to the greatest supply of cattle.
 The plant as planned will be on an extensive scale, built to handle all of the cattle and hogs that this section of Arizona can possibly handle. MT. Fri bolet said that he believed hogs were more profitable and surer crop than cotton and that in the future there would be a great many more hogs raised here than ever before as the packing house would provide a sure and ready market for them.
 The plans will include a. plant that will cost approximately S200,000. It will employ from so to 100 people. Meat will be shipped in car lots to all parts of the southwest. Of course the local trade will be suplied by this plant but as heretofore only local business has been done in this line. it will mean a great deal to have it handled on so large a scale
 Several sites are ping considered, among them, the old sugar factory, also several places along Grand avenue. A site will be selected that has good ship ping facilities.
 The packing plant will mean much to Glendale, as this little city is just at the point where few additions to its industries will make a town out of what is still 8 village.
