tire affair for the handsome poodle that they could and did rake in. That the
 ball players will be punished, is to be
 expected Some already appear to be
 experiencing ren1orse for the part they
 played unless they are shedding eroco-
 dile tears which of course is just as
 easy as the throwing of 3 ball game
 But while action is being brought
 against the players no stone should be
 left unturned to reach those higher up
 who engineered the job. They are the
 ones who are more guilty than all the rest. They enticed the players with
 money and they coaxed the Chicago players to blast their records under the plea that their acts could never be de- tected. That is of course no excuse for the players yielding to their offer but while the players are being penalized for the comparatively small rakeoff they received those who as professionals laid the foundation for the deplorable base ball scandal should not be overlooked The need of thorough housekeeping | is recognized and while it is being un- dertaken no halfway job can be sane toned. Much will depend upon this as
 to. how quick public confidence in the American sport will be restored.

School Consolidation in Colchester

MT. Editor: This is a word to the farmers of Colchester! Have you read the town meeting warning? Is there any thing in it that vitally interests you? Read it again. What is it that says about consolidating the schools Do you realize what that means?
 If you vote yes" on the motion, that the ten school district be consolidated in- to one, the same to be under the control of the school board at Colchester" or if you are not resent to vote mo" ; the mo- tion will pass And if it does pass-the farmers who pay special extra tax for the maintenance of the district schools, will lose all control over them The Colchester school board will have authori- ty to order an addition to any of the dis trict school; renovation or even an en- tire new building. But who will have to pay for it? The borough taxpayers, or the farmers? Just the people dwelling in the district They may, if they choose, if they choose, close your school, as they sought to do in the second district a few years ago.
 Don't let them do it! We need our schools, where they are, as they are! We are capable of managing them Be at the meeting Monday! See that your heighbor is there And all vote "No !" Very tfuly yours, WILLIAM J. MCDONALD l Colchester, Sept s2S, 1920.
