When the fourth came, "Look here y

She looked up gently and as George

him a catch in the throat. She looked
instantly away, and turning, ran out

stood, to the dancing floor.

TO THE PUBLIC:

Sixty minutes in every hour, twenty four hours in every day, seven days in every week and fifty-two weeks in every year, the wheels operating your electric light and power plants must continually grind.
 Have you stopped to think what an undertaking this is? Have you stopped to think what a wonderful amount of energy and constant watching this re-, quires? Have you stopped to think what a strain this must be on both machinery and men Have you stopped to think what vast amount of fuel is required to render such service? Have you ever stopped to think what it all means to furnish you light and power at the push of the button or the turn of the switch, or to furnish you water at the turn of the faucet, every minute, every hour, every day and all the time?
 We sometimes hear what you think when you fail to get the light or power when you push the button or turn the switch, or the water fails to flow.

BELT TRIM SOLDIERS
 IN |NFAST.GAME
Local Hurler Allows Only Three Hits, and Visitor Yields
 But Six.

Fine battery work by Rice and Graves, and fast fielding by the in- field gave the Cotton Belt team a 5 to 2 victory over the soldier team from Camp Pike a: the Athletic field yesterday. The game was charac- terized by fast, clever playing by both sides, and tho Umpire Harlow Sanders made two close decisions which might be questioned the game was unmarred by anything to detract from the interest of the game.
 Rice, pitching for the locals, held the opposing batsmen to three hits, and struck out IA, while Hoffman, Camp Pike twirler proved himself a beaver of merit, allowing the Cotton Belt batters but six hits. His strike out record was high as he sent nine locals wandering pack to the water bucket
 The attendance, while leaving much to be desired, was better than in previous games, and those who were there saw, probably, the best game played here this season. The score:

 Ruth said he felt confident of ex- ceeding Socks" Seybold's record of the major league, and added that Buck Freeman's world record for major leagues of 25 home runs would be the particular aim of his batting ambition for the rest of the season.
