catch the same spirit and not be'left
or unsurpassed in a worthy zeal and
go for the shingling and painting of
the church. A church, according to
the old temple idea, should be the
finest I'VE can make it. 1t in meas
ure represents our interest if not our
religion and should even equal II not
surpass our own homes in material
beauty.
On next Sunday is the time for an
Ascension sermon and some are
thinking of playing ball on the Sab
bath, also to remember the Fourth
Commandment. No nation or vicin-
ity ever violated the Sabbath with
out opening a fiood-gate for evil, so
remember God on the Sabbath and
your church services and bring a
blessing to yourself and all as you
cannot afford to miss a proper OBJ
servance of the Sabbath. If you do
you may not only form a wrong
habit but also bring an irreparable
loss for eternity to yourself

THE SAME OLD STORY y
AUDUBON WINS AGAIN

The Panora high school base ball
team, noted as one of the best in this
part of the state came to Audubon
last Friday afternoon and played a
game of ball with the Audubon high
school team. The game was inter-
esting throughout and was a Clearly
contested one. Audubon deserved
to win as the roofing for them gave
them pep and encouragement to go
out and win by the score of s to q.
Some plays of league form were pull
ed off by both sides, but the double
by Petersen of second to McIntire at
first for Audubon put the finishing
touches to the last game of the high
school season and proved winner for
the home team. No more games will
be played by the high school team
this season and several of this years
players will not be with the team
next year as they are members of the
1919 graduating class. Three or
four of the Audubon team will be
given a try-out on Audubon's regular
team just organized and no doubt
will make their position as they are
husky young chaps and good ball
players.

THE AUDUBON BALL TEAM
WINS THEIR FIRST GAM

The new base ball team for Audi
bon lined up for game with a pick
ed nine of good players last Sunday
afternoon at the new ball diamond
in the Johnson pasture. The dia-
mond is in fairly good condition but
needs great deal of improving be-
fore it is in shape for real good
games. This will probably be at
tended to this week by spreading
fine earth upon it and then using a
heavy roller. If this is not salts
factory and it is possible to get the
consent of the owners the diamond
will be skinned. Both teams play
ed fairly good ball Sunday, consid-
ering it was the first game and was
won by the regular team by the score
of 10 to 4. A large number of fans
were present and enjoyed the try-out
almost as well as If a team from
umpired the game and H. A. North
up was official scorer.
Now if the pail players will show
up regularly for practice and take an
interest as a team and not individ-
ual players, there is no reason why
the Audubon club should not give a
good account OF itself this season
Notes of the Game: John Roth
catcher, had a finger badly bruised
when the nail, was almost torn from
the finger. Several uncalled for er.
rors aroused the ire of the fans. On
ly two cuss words were heard during
the afternoon, as far as we were able
to learn. Savage got Tom Shupe's
goat by calling ball that really
split the plate ball instead of a
strike, then Tom pitched better than
ever. The madden Tom gets the
better he can pitch. Van Sise muff-
ed nice little pop-up, then nearly
swore, but he didn't.
A game has been scheduled for
800 o'clock next Sunday afternoon
with Brayton, to be played on the To-
cal diamond Brayton has a good
team and this promises to be a good
game. ~ ew

Saturday four truck loads of We guys

went to Clermont and on north We
passed through Vienne, but / don't
remember the names of any of the
other towns we passed through.
There was not much left of any of
them. After we got out of Cler-
mont about mile we saw the first
French trench with barbed wire en-
tanglements and from then on it
was just one trench after another,
with barbed wire between them and
shell holes everywhere.
think we went about 25 kilomet-
ers east of Clermont and then we
stopped and everybody got out to
have look at things. At the side
of the road was large German GEM
etery, the date most of the graves be-
ing 1914 We went up the road a
mile and then went into the Argonne
woods. After looking things over
we went back to the trucks and had
dinner. After eating our dinner
We started for Verdun but didn't get
there, not that day as the roads were
so full of shell holes that We had to
give it up and went back to Cler-
mont to get back on the main road
again. AS il was late we thought it
would be best to go back to Beauzee
for the night and go to Verdun in
the morning and that is what We did.
We ate our dinner in Verdun Sun
day. We went through the under

the afternoon we went east of YER

How DO You Feed
Your Stock?

Do they get all the fee
you give them or is a great
deal of it wasted?
Do the stronger animals
prevent the weaker ones
from getting their share? Is
there crowding and scrapping
at feed time?
Is it a big chore for you to
feed your stock or have you
a feed rack which makes the
work easy and largely auto
matte?
A feed rack saves feed and
therefore it saves your profits.
1t assures every animal its
rightful share. 1t protects
the weaker animals from the
stronger and prevents injury
from crowding and pushing.
1t doesn't take much lum-
Der or much labor to make a
good feed rack that will
quickly pay you back in the
feed it saves.
Tell us how many head
and what stock you feed and
we will tell you the cost of
a feed rack.
