"TrGH!"

There has been a great deal OF
wondering and scandalized con jec-
ture as to why and wherefore Presi-
dent Wilson selected George d. Her
ron to represent the United States
at the Marmora conference with the
Russians.
How this unfrocked ex-reverend
eccentric whose doctrines and practi-
ces smelied to heaven with an ex-
IRENE and nose-assailing miasmatic
rancidity, can possibly be supposed
to fit into any reputable scheme for
making the world safe for democracy
Is a mystery.
The Wisconsin city of Ripon,
where Heron started his career Of
matrimonial experiences by counting
ill-treating and discarding the first
in the series Of hts pro tenn wives. is
loud in its protest against the ap-
pointment. The town OF Metuchen,
n. j., out of which Heron and his
free love colony OF Advanced Think
ers were run by pitchfork brigade
Of farmers and farmers wives who
could stand the odor of their sayings
md doings no longer. is loud in it,
protest.
So why on earth did our exacting
and highminded president, who re-
fused to handle even old Huerta ex-
eept with tongs, select Heron for
this important mission? The presi-
dent Is a good strong Presbyterian OF
the Scotch persuasion. and 1t may be
recalled that Heron once said OF
that denomination:
There is not bit Of spiritual diff
ference between the Standard OIL
combination and the Presbyterian
church. One demands tribute in the
form Of cash and the other in the
form Of enslavement Of souls and all
the cash they can get besides"
That certainly could not have rec
ommended Heron to Elder Wilson.
The only possible reason that one
can see from this distance for the
selection is that Heron will be con-
genial to the bolsheyist delegates and
with them distinctly persona grata
But what about his emlnentiy re-
spectacle colleagues on the mission,
men like Mr. Borden of Canada. or
William Allen White for instance.
AS for the American public. =
prominent democrat, one Harvey.
puts the case in a nutshell as follows:
But. good God, think Of the Unit
ed States OF America being repre-
scented by such a creature at one Of
the most vital meetings. IN the hesto-
ry Of the world! Milwaukee

LeesviIIe White Sox
Win game from Many

The Leesville White Sox once more
proved their superiority by winning
from Many on Friday, July i in a
6-5 game. The game was a good
one, altho it looked for while as
if Many were going to win the game.
During the first five innings, Many
piled up three runs, and Leesville had,
nothing to show for the afternoons
work. In the sixth inning Leesville
woke up to the realization that she
must do something. and having gotten
into shape. she piled up three while
Many scored one. This. however. left
Many still in the lead. and that would
never do; so Leesville Immediately re-
pated her feat of the sixth, giving her
a lead of two. Many managed to get
one more run in the eighth, but they
both failed to score in the ninth, and
the game ended 6 to 5 in favor of
Leesville.
Batteries were:

A striking thing about the girls and
boys was the costumes which they

pink. The poultry girls had similar
costumes except that the bonnets were
lined with blue. and the boy members
were all dressed in overaIls and big
