WILL BUILD NEW DAM.
Rocky Ford to Have Modern Type of
Equipment.

Work has commenced on a com
plete new dam of modern type at
Rocky Ford to replace the one built
many years ago and which recently
was damaged by sliding off the
foundation of a portion Of it that had
not been properly anchored. The new
dam will be below the old one and
built with the best engineering skill
on a solid rock foundation with spill
ways and will be one Of the best in
the west. 1t will increase the power
of the plant and add materially to
the volume of service possible to the
company whose business is steadily
increasing. There has been no in
terruption of the service of the united
companies as the power plants at
Abilene and Blue Rapids have car
ried the power production without a
moments delay. This is one of the
great assets Of the companies
three power plants directly connect
ed and all available at any time for
the entire circuit.

*. c. STAR MADE A MISTAKE
Victim OF Strangers Not Herington
Farmer.

The Kansas city star Of Monday
had n story to Tie effect that "Thom
as McRae. 90 years old. a farmer
living near HcrIngton, Kan. was in
Kansas CITY CMondayl aud asked
two strangers where he could get a
case of whlskey When they replied
In the affirmative. he gave them $50
and suit ease TO deliver the whiskey
TO him. lie never saw them again and
complained to the police who informed
him that he had been robbed.
when Tom McRae, who lives just
south OF town, read that story he got
his Scotch up; you couldn't blame
him. He has not been in Kansas
City In weeks and probably. months
and on the day mentioned was busily
at work on his farm where his
nelghbors saw him every hour OF the
day. He was IN town Tuesday after
noon and was naturally much incen-
sed over the story. He feels that he
would be justified In bringing suit
against the Star He will at least
ask the managing editor to correct
the error.
Mr.. McRae's many friends know
that he has too much sense to go to-
Kansas City and hand over $50 to a
of strangers to get booze for
him, and hence pay little attention TO
the story.
"Kansas has made it crime to
carry booze around" said Mr.. Nc
Rae, and | haven't put myself in the
criminal class. Harrington Times.

education days will be Tuesdays and
Thursdays, Physical education Is
particularly important at this time

training to remedy physical defects

NOTED by credits and subjects and
not by years Failure to reach the
proper standard in any study will not
hold back the pupil in any other
study. The principle Of election Of

LOCALS TAKE ANOTHER FROM
THE COTTON STATE CHAMPIONS
o'BRII:N AND BOMBAY IN PITCH
ING DUEL HAVE SEVEN SCORE
LESS UNNECESSARILY WAS 8 TO
O.

O'Brien. the 16-year-old phenom
from Montgomery, twirling for the
up-country Knights of Columbus held
the local Twilight League leaders to
three singles yesterday, struck out IL
men and lost his game 3 to 0, due
partly to his own wildness and partly
to poor support, especially at the
third corner. He was opposed by
Lefty Bombay, who held the visitors
in the hollow OF his hand, issuing no
passes, striking out and giving away
four hits. one of them triple.
But 81 men faced Bombay in the
entire nine innings. The same num-
Der faced O'Brien in eight innings.
All in all. it was good pitching duel,
the two eft-handers furnishing most
of the game.
The locals scored in the second,
when Merritt first up, singled to left,
went round on Bickers Texas Lacquer
over short. and came home on Far
ley's wide throw to the third baseman.
Bfcker advanced on the play and went
to third on divers scratch hit to the
box. Flicker scored on O'Brien's wild
pitch. O'Brien then struck out Sierra,
hit Bombay, struck out r. Scarritt,
walked Diaz and made Villar ground
out, Foster to Sweeney.
O'Brien got himself in trouble early
in the third by walking Anderson,
who stole and went to third on Far
ley's bad throw to head off the steal.
Bicker flied to Wilson and Anderson
scored.
This ended the runrgetting for the
rest Of the game; it was a pitchers
battle with neither twirler in danger,
although Lefty Bombay was out
r~uessed when he tossed an easy one
over for a third strike on Farley, the
visiting catcher landing on it for
triple to deep center. Two were out,
however, and the third man grounded
to the box.
The same teams play the third game
of the series at four o'clock this after
noon, and a good crowd should be out
TO see the sport. Walker Bombay will
probably work for the locals and Will
son or Kriss will do the honors for
Montgomery. Kriss is the twirier who
won the pennant for the visitors,
pitching them to victory in a double
header \ week ago yesterday. With
weeks rest since that time, he should
be right for today's game.
