Milbank won the first game played
on the home diamond tom the
Ortonville aggregation last Sunday
by score of | to 0. This second
win places Milbank tied with Grace
vile for second place and OrtonvilIe
in the fourth place.
Monahan. playing the first sack
for the Milbank team, made beau
tiful drive to right field, a safe
three bag hit, which brought in
Herman from second base and made
the lone tally. An error on the
part of Ortonville's first sacker,
when Herman made drive TO short
stop. allowed Herman to make first,
and then second.
Gill CLEANED 10 strike outs during

for OrtonvlIe was credited with
only Milbank registered hits
to 2 for their opponents This
brings Gill's record of strikeoutsl
for the three games played up to
4. and no walks against him. His
work on the mound for the three
games has. been steady and clean
and the Milbank team is on the
main track for the flag.
Graceville and Clinton. who were
tied for the first place battled on
the Graceville diamond. the Clin-
tonites taking the game by a score
OF 8 to 0. This gives Clinton the
top berth. with a lineup against

Milbank players have only the Clin-
tonies to play they will be able to
bring home the heavy end of the
score. but having to play against
the umpire as we'll as good team
is too much for the locals. An ef-
fort is being made to get a good
sized delegation Of Mi!bank baseball

boys the support that they need.

"HOME MISS. WORK
AMONG THE INDIANS
Subject Discussed BY Young
Woman's Auxiliary Of Col
lege Ave. Baptist Church
HOW WORK WAS STARTED

The Young Woman's Auxiliary of
College Avenue Baptist Church held
its monthly meeting at the home OF
Miss Edna Heise, on Tuesday even-
ing. An interesting program had
been prepared, the topic being Home
Mission Work Among the Indians "
The devotional was by Mrs. Heise.
Miss Esther McCusker first ex-
planned how the work started in the
Indian Reservation in Oklahoma One
third of all Indians in the United
States live in Oklahoma, she said.
Some have had wonderful advantages
of schools and colleges and direct
contact with civilization, but surpris-
ing as it may SEEM there are about
AZ 900 Indians who have not even been
reached by missionaries and who live
in darkest heathendom. This is Chris
tianized America 90
Miss Reba Paxton spoke of their
former homes, known as Mud
Lodges which they have now to a
great extent abandoned for the more
comfortable and sanitary homes. which
they learned to build from the mis-
sionaries.
Since alcoholic beverages have been
taken from the Indians by the govern
ment a new and greater curse has
found its way in the reservations from
Mexico. 1t is known as the "Peyote
Curse" The peyote itself has the ap-
{ A,l Rf Arta
turnip. Sometimes this is made in
liquid form but mostly it comes as the
"peyote' The Indians call large

village The men and women attend
while the children look on A large
Bible is placed in the center of the
room for the 'peyote" brings to some
visions of the Christ The "peyote" is
distributed among them. Then follows
such a horrid, debased scene as can
hardly be imagined in Christian Am
erica, for the ''peyote' is simply dope
which brings visions and feelings of
all sorts to the partaker.
The workers in the Reservation have
succeeded, though to some extent, and
a description of a lovely meeting by
the Woman's Missionary Society
among the Indians is described by Miss
Francis Short, wherein especial en-
phasis was laid upon the fact that the
Indians seem so glad and willing to
offer their Thank You" to God.
After a little further discussion OF
the subject the meeting adjourned and
! enjoyed a social hour,
