Annual Shoot.

The twenty-first annual shoot OF
Rising Sun Gun Club drew good
string of shooters to compete in the
various events. Out of a possible
$50 targets in the six events, two
tied for high score, German and
Somers, with LAG each to theil
credit, while three made 145 each.
One of the pleasant features of the
shoot was the dainty lunch served by
the ladies of the Missionary Society
of the Presbyterian Church. Since
the ladies of the Red Cross and the
church have taken charge of the
lunch, it has proven a drawing card
to the shooters and has netted neat
sum for charitable purposes as well.

Bel Air played on the local grounds
Saturday afternoon and gave our
boys run for the game, coming
from behind and almost getting the
bacon. Rising Sun started with a
rush, and put four runs across in the
first inning, which looked pretty
safe, but Bel Air began to size Gregg
up as the game wore along, getting
two runs in the fifth and tieing the
score in the sixth by consecutive hit
ting. Finn relieved Gregg in this
inning. In the seventh Bel Air took
the lead in the first half, but Rising
Sun still had a punch left, and put
two runs across in their turn, taking
the game. w. Cameron and Dunbar
led their team at bat and in the
field, while Walker, in right, did
some sensational fielding for Bel Air.

Jacksonville, Florida, sends Miss
Bertha Tyson, of this town, con-
tribution for Richards Oak, accom-
panied by the following note:
Aug. IA, 1920
Dear Miss Tyson:
Having seen you had been desig-
mated as one, along with several
others. to receive contributions of a
fund for the preservation of the old
tree, Richards Oak" at Richards
mere. and myself being fully in &C
cord with such measures, l herewith
inclose $1.00 to be applied in pIo-
longing it's life.
Is Richardsmere a new name for
"Porters Bridge?" If not, imagine
it is in that neighborhood some
where. l do not recall this old tree
in my ramblings in Cecil County, but
l never was in this particular locality
very much, when boy, except rabbit
hunting occasionally, and perhaps on
the lookout for a swimming hole /.
in season, and when so occupied in
thought, old trees at that time would
most likely escape my notice. but
now to prolong the life of an old tree,
and it being in Cecil County, war
rants my attention, hence my con-
tribution.
Yours truly,
e. ]. KIRK. \

OPEN FIRES

The most important rule IL
this: Never leave the fire until
you are SURE that the last spark
is out. If you must leave it
before it burns out, throw water
or earth upon the embers, but
always make sure.
1t really is not wise to burn
dead leaves, as many people do
every fall, for if leaves are
buried they will decay and make
rich loan for the garden.

FOR The YOUNG AND SLENDER

A quaint model which seems likely

cape of "coachman" form. This style
of coat is only suitable for young and
slender gilIs; the cape * 50 large

look unduly broad and coachman's
cape always has a tendency 10 cut
the figure unless one is unusually tail.
Capes of this form made of fur and
sold separately, may be worn over
any dress or coat. This is a revival
Of an old fashion and it will probably
be q welcome one, since these big capes
take the place of cloth or velvet
wraps.
Some of the Paris tailors are show
ing sack coats OF curious outline
short, straight little garments with
long pagoda sleeves and square col
lars of velvet or fur Early in the
summer season a determined effort was
made 10 bring sack coats into fashion,
and this effort had a considerable sue
cess, for such coats, in linen and Shan
tung, have been worn with flOunced or
plated muslin skirts.
We are in q war of outline so far
as coats are concerned. Several influ-
entail Paris tailors are determined to
bring back the strictly classic tailored
suit, with a plain, rather tight skirt,
and a close-fitting coat of mannish or

Lutheran Leader
Condemns Injustice
to College Professors

Professor V. G. A. Tressler, presi-
dent OF the General Synod OF the
Lutheran Church in America, profes-
sor of New Testament theology at
Wittenberg. says the nation is doing
great injustice to college professors.
Speaking recently at number CT
district rallies in Michigan, Ohio, IN
diana and Kentucky on the e@uca-
tional crisis in America, DR.. V. q. A.
Tressler of Wittenberg college SAID:
Few men realize how serious the
situation is today which the church
schools are facing and how far-reach-
ing the consequence if the situation
Is not met. The dollar has slrunk to
one-third its former value. There has
been no adequate increase in college
income. To make the students pay
the increased cost would defeat the
basic thought Of American colleges
TO give the opportunity Of training
TO all
sThs burden has fallen largely on
the professors. Newspapers have
treated the subject humorously 1t is
not a Joke. it is a tragedy for the men
who must face II. 1t is shame for
the people who permit it and it is
hound to be a calamity for the church
and the nation unless it is remedied.
1T is stated that within the last
two years a hundred and fifty thou
sand teachers in America left their
profession to go into business life be-
cause their profession did not ade
quately provide them and their de-
pendents with a livelihood. The ma
tional commissioner of education. p
p. Claxton, has called the situation
critical unless heroic measures are
resorted to.
'It is plain to every thinking mar
that the future Of the nation deDend:
on its teachers, and if our nation nee
lects the teachers Of its youth it gam
hles away its future.
