MONIEIIH PLAYS Big
JOKE ON AUDUBON
SENDS OVER CROQUET CLUB
DISGUISED AS BALL PLAY
ERS AND STAGE COMEDY

The Monteith Croquet Club enter
tanned the Audubon base ball club
and also a few fans at the johnson
ball park Sunday and after 1t was
all out and over called it ball
game. After the dead and wound
ed had been removed from the field
the score stood IT to in favor of
the home boys. They had south
paw in the box for the visitors but
he was the paw and a smile and the
home team joyfully received all that
he offered and scattered them to all
corners of the lot. 1t was hilari-
Gus exhibition of the national pas
time and this is how it happened.
Monteith started out like million
dollars and scored one in the first
inning. Audubon saw them and
raised them one in their half, max
ing it read 2 to 1. Neither side
scored again until the fourth when
Audubon got started and added six
more. The fifth was scoreless but
Audubon added three more for good
measure in the sixth and repeated
the dose with one to grow on in the
seventh, bringing the total up to l3.
Nonteith counted one in the eighth
while Audubon was taking two and
scored two more in the ninth, the
final count being II to with three
precincts yet to be heard from. Oh,
ii was a grand and glorious game.
The home team will play Brayton
at Brayton on next Sunday and all
fans that can possibly do SO are urg-
ed to attend as this will be a real
ball game and since we have broken
our losing streak the boys are very
anxious to make 1t a winning one.
The lineup and box score follow:

navy departments. The first will

five carloads Of 1t. including trophies
and relics from the battle fields of

DAYLIGHT BILL REPEAL
PASSED BY THE SENATE

Repeal of the daylight saving law
was passed Tuesday over President
Wilson's veto by the house on a vote
o 223 to 101, seven more than the
necessary two-thirds. The repeal
now goes to the senate where its
supporters claim victory.
Agitation for the repeal of the
daylight saving law first came from
farmers but recently has been but
tressed by labor unions, mothers
clubs, rural school authorities and
many other interests. Urban opin-
ion also has become divided and Of
ficials of many cities and smaller
towns have come out against the
law. Congress has been flooded with
petitions for repeal of the law, In
collision with a counter flood urg-
ing retention Of the statute.
Loss Of time In farm labor is the
principal objection raised to the
law. This complaint comes prin-
cipally from farmers employing htr-
ed hands and. opponents to the law
declare, all farmers, at some time
during the summer season, are en-
ployers of labor and suffer from the
law. HtS s
The complaint of loss Of labor is
based principally on the shortening
OF the working day on the farm by
advancing the clock one hour from
March to October. The farmers
complaints declare they cannot adj
just farm work to the advanced
time because. with the clock ad-
vanced one hour, farm work cannot
be begun as early in the morning,
as under the normal time schedule
and must close an hour earlier.
This is because the dew on the
ground in the early morning pre-
vents blowing and other farm labor
under the advanced time schedule.

RAD AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT

A new Studebaker car with TOUR
occupants turned turtle at the turn
in the road at the Kleuver farm on
the ridge road southeast of town
Tuesday morning. Two OF the
men were from Harlan and the 9th
err two from Council BLUFFS. They
were coming to Audubon from Har-
Ian on a land deal. The roads were
good and they We're driving at a rate
of 45 miles an hour. They were
unfamiliar with the road and did
not see the sharp turn until they
had reached the point. In apply
ing the emergency brake the driver
set IL so suddenly that the car was
upset and badly damaged. All OF
the occupants were injured more or
less. One man was seriously in
jured internally. They were at
once taken to Harlan where they
were given medical attention. We
were unable to learn their names.

SPENT DAY WITH MANY
OLD TIME FRIENDS

Judge w. r. Green, member OF
congress from the 9th Iowa district
and a former resident of this city
came from Griswold Friday to
spend the day with friends. He
was speaker at the home coming
celebration at Griswold Thursday.
Owing to much important business
III congress Nj. Green was compeil-
ed to return to Washington Satur-
day evening.
Mr.. Green paid this office a pleas
ant call and stated that his family
remained in Washington during his
absence but that nth Mrs. Green
and Margaret were well and hoped
to visit Audubon later. From pres
ent indications there is no vacation
III sight and it may be some time be-
fore Mr.. Green and his family can
leave Washington.
Mr.. Green spent several months
in France early last spring and he
said he learned a great many things
first hand. He had the privilege
cf meeting King Albert of Belgium
and saw much of the devatated ter
ritory both in Belgium and northern
france. Tie Sdlu all VI the Olu
countries had many difficult prob
lens ito solve, and he thought the
United States had many perplexing
questions to meet in the near fu-
ture. He said France was so ov-
erwhelmed by the loss of man pow
er that the country seemed stunned
and unable to regain its former ag-
gressive spirit. The unrest in all
Europe Is beyond our conception,
and 1t is impossible for us to aedsr-
stand the hardships the people have
passed through. Yet, said he, in
our own country so far as labor cor
ditions are concerned, II Is very SIM
liar.
~He hoped the railroad situation
would clear up, but thought there
was lot of trouble ahead. This
district is indeed fortunate In hav-
ing Mr.. Green as its representative.
He is cool. level headed. deep
thinker and above all is honest with
a deep desire to do unto others as
he would have them do unto us. A
man of Mr.. Gren's temperament is a
distinct asset to the people OF the
nation. Through this period of
reconstruction we need men Of Mr..
Green's type to bring order out of
chaos.

FORCE BUSY AT WORK

Mrs. Coulter and Miss Claudine
Krause have been added to the cler-
ical force in the office Of the county
auditor the past week to assist In
making the revisions in the assess
ments of lands and other items that
were ordered by the executive coun-
Gil at Des Moines recently. Land
is decreased five percent while cat
tie, hogs. sheep and other items are
increased. This of necessity makes
a lot of additional work for the
county auditor who has only a spe-
Gifted time in which to certify his
books to the county treasurer.

and Miles Gardner have taken their
hogs and cattle to Des Moines, Ia,

Notes of the Game

The game Sunday was good one
for the boys to fatten their batting
averages on and several of them
took advantage of it
Shupe lobbed one over for e.
Parrish and he surprised everyone
and himself most of all by hitting it
for a return ticket.
Audubon tried out two new play
ers Sunday in Miller and Roth and
they both showed up very well so
for as we could judge from the class
they were up against.
The visitors had only two real
ball players in our estimation and
they were II. Parrish on first base
and L. Laidley in centerfield. They
fielded their positions in nice style
and also did most of the hitting.
Beck for the visitors replaced
Parrish in the box in the Sth in
ming and finished the game.
