Break With Herbs
Continued from page one)

Boardman, a former American
Association pitcher from Fargo, i'm
ported specially by Glasgow for this
game, was loosely supported, at
times, and had his hands full in near
ly every inning to keep the Wolves
from breaking loose. Charley had
promised to pitch for Wolf Point,
but threw us down at the last min
ute when Glasgow raised the ante,
and the crowd took keen delight in
seeing him lose his game.
With two out and two strikes on
Summers, the score stood l to 0 for
Glasgow in the ninth. Then Sum
mers assumed the hero role and rap
ped one safely to right field. Zim-
norman had walked to first and been
sacrificed to second by Williams.
Summers single brought him the
rest of the route. Jensen followed
with a drive that Boardman could
only touch and Godfrey missed. The
scratch gave him a life but Grace
famed and the game went into ex-
ira innings.
The Glasgow batters were retired
one, two, three in the tenth. For
the Wolves, Lopez got on on an error
by Oriet. Berens sacrificed. Schaf-
fer sent M into short right that hit

the sod in the midst of a bunch OF
felders. Then came Zim, who out
guessed both Boardman and Captain
! Hester who was playing close in for
a sacrifice. The ball went Hester's
way at speed too fast for the old
Lacquer. The best he could do was
bounce it off his glove while Lopez
tore home. The ball was recovered
and thrown, but Jones was unable
to tag the speedy shortstop as he slid
over the pan. So it was all over,
with only one out. Zim would have
been safe at first had the game not
ended there.
There was wild delight among the
fans but Hester and Boardman were
sorely disappointed. They strove
manfully to conceal their chagrin
but with poor success. 1t was some
game, folks, and as the circus post
ers say, worth going miles to see"
One of the finest features of the
game was the umpiring, which was
done by Poore on balls and strikes
and Warner on the outer bases.
There were a few decisions that Hes
ter roared and beefed about, but that
is merely his habit. Practically ev-
erybody agreed that the umpiring
was good, especially that of Poore
on balls and strikes. He was cool
and careful at all times and refused
to get excited or to be swerved from
his policy of fairness.

ADDRESS DELIVERED
AT MEMORIAL PROGRAM
(By Hugh N. Marron)

Members of the Civil War Veter-
ans; Spanish-American Wan Veter-
ans; and of the World War Veter-
ans; Ladies and Gentlemen:
Under the flag Of our beloved
country, with its power and peace
stirring our hearts and minds to re-
new sentiments of patriotism, we
gather today %reverently to express
our loyal remembrance of the heroic
dead, and to offer our heartfelt pray
ers for their everlasting glory. Our
country, ever mindful of the service
and sacrifice of her brave sons, sets
this day apart as a time to honor
them, whose lives were so courage
ously and so generously given for
the safety and continuance of this
republic.
For it is only fit and proper that
we, as human beings, gather here to-
day in our humble way, and by u
acts and thoughts commemorate the
memory of those men of our country
who have made the supreme sacri-
flee, so that you and / might enjoy
the blessings and freedom of liberty
under the stars and stripes, and that
a government of the people, by the
people and for the people might not
perish from the face of the earth.
And &c 7 e+onI la-o Al. of4zz.
l wish to call your attention to a
fact that makes itself prominent this
afternoon. We are living in a town
of nearly three thousand people; we
have nearly six hundred pupils in our
public schools; and yet this after
noon we have about five hundred
people attending Memorial services.
l will wager with anyone here this
afternoon that tonight more people
will attend the shows in Wolf Point
than have attended this Memorial
service, and l will wager that at the
present time you will find as many
men, supposed to be American citi-
zens, congregating around our pool
halls and places of amusement at this
time. Today is Sunday, our Sabbath
day, surely all of those people do not
have an excuse; it goes to show, my
dear people, that something is wrong.
Not two years ago you found those
very people attending prayer meet
ings so that peace might be declared,
that America might be successful
in the world war; you found those
people making promises to our
boys of all the things they would do
for them if they won the war and up
held the spirit of our country; yet,

let the temporary occupation cloud
your ideal. l know how today we
have short courses on this and that
and the other, and the great major
ity of them are entirely too short.
This is an age of specialists and
entirely agree with that, but let
there be a broad foundation first. A
so-called education that is long on
methods and short on principles will
very soon wear out and you will
speedily come to the end of it. But
an education that lays, broad and
deep, a foundation of fundamental
principles along with some methods,
will e wear out.
But there is another matter which
is vitality important and that is the
relation of education to character.
Many people have the idea that an
education is an assurance of good
character. That is not true. I wish
it were. Education in itself is
neither good nor bad. It becomes
one or the other according to what
content and motive you put into it.
Education is the introduction of con-
troll into experience. What kind of
control? A control Of selfishness or
unselfshness. A control of right or
wrong. A control by giving the
higher motives the right Of way over
the lower motives. For wrong is no
respecter of persons. Our peniten-
tiaries have many finely educated
people within their walls. Character
then is the moral quality in an ed
ucation. This word character comes
from the picturesque Greek language
and it is transliterated into the Eng
lish in the word "harass"-to annoy,
from the Greek word, ~"xarasso." In
its original it referred to the process
of minting--the pounding into shape
of the metal for the coin and the
stamping of the mint. So we want
from you, characters. Characters
that are rue and noble and holy.
Characters that will stand the strain
of being woven into the warp and
wool of the fabric of life and will
not break or give way.
Let me bring a closing wish in the
words of a poet.
"High heart, and courage to be
strong;
To love to work and think and toll.
To think clean thoughts and love
clean play,
And drive clean burrows through the
soil.
Let this be mine and / shall be
The master of my destiny.
High heart and joyfully to bear
The burden of my fellow man.
To lift his crushing load of care
And of my strength to gladly share.
Let this be mine and / shall be
Worth while to all humanity.
High heart and that calm faith that
meets
The very doubt that grips my soul.
To walk with God; to do His will,
And still press onward to the goal.
Let this be mine and | shall be
Unconquered through eternity.

boys and girls who have a large part
in their presentation. In addition tc
these exercises, they present patri-
otto programs in their schools on
some other days during the Memorial
season. 1t is the time of year that
impresses them most of all. During
the years since Memorial Day was
proclaimed a half-century ago, mil
lions of children have gone through
our public and parochial schools and
all have had something to do with
proper observance of the day, all
have been deeply impressed at the
impressive time of their life with the
lessons of patriotism thus conveyed
to them. In the meantime those chill
womanhood, became fathers and mo-
theirs of other children in our schools
and all have been more or less infu-
entail in the formation of public
sentiment in our republic.
We can never fully understand the
cumulative influence upon our citi-
zenship of the past fifty years of OBJ
servance of Memorial Day which or
iginated with the Grand Army of the
Republic. An influence that is be-
coming not less, but stronger, as we
grow older and fewer in numbers.
AS I have said before, Memorial Day
has in a very real sense come to be,
aside from those purely religious,
the hottest day in the year. Reports
indicate that never before was the
day so generally observed as in 1919.
In many cities, places of business
were closed all day so that nothing
might take the attention of people
away from full consideration of the
purpose to which the day had been
dedicated. The professions were s
more impressive, fower-laden j
and beautiful in spirit. A specially t
interesting feature of the occasion /
vas the presence of so many young t
comrades in khaki, some of whom '
lad just come home from the great
war for humanity and civic
righteousness. 1t was an inspiring a
light to see the old boys in blue f
narching alongside the younger ones r
n brown under the flag for which t
hey had all fought. 1 am sure we u
nay depend upon the younger gen f
ration to preserve Memorial Day. s
nth all its patriotic associations. t
There is no doubt but that we shall D
ct into the habit of celebrating in o
suitable manner the 18th day
f November as the anniversary of Il
le victorious ending of the fighting o
the great world war. We old al
omrades may, think, leave it en- n
to our brave boys from over tt
as to make plans for such celebra- az
1t should in a special n be al
Leir day. They fought for it and 10
aimed a glorious victory. We will TT
