KID pitchers, Griffith is better fixed
than any club outside of New York.
His twirlers are better right now
than Detroit and as good as CIeye-
land
Then Milan is back in shape,
and from all accounts he has fully
recovered from his old complaint.
1t Is true that Jesse Clyde. is not as
young as he was but he is still a
valuable player to the club. Then
Rice should be a better man this
year thansh he has ever been. With
that trio of outer gardeners playing
their game Washington need take no
back seat from any of them except
the lads who cover that portion Of
the garden for Detroit.
You know what Judge can do.
You have seen little Joe Leon
ard at second but when he is placed
at his regular position, third, you
are going to see a different man.
He will overcome one weakness
while playing third that was not
noticeable when he was playing
second, that of being spike shy. At
third he will be taught how to ham
die his feet and when he learns that
he will be star.
At short I look to see Frank
Rogers Ellerbe play a game that
will be as good as George Mcbride
ever played. That is saying a.
mouthful. but wait. He will be a
better hitter and being faster than
the veteran, will score more runs.

First Division Club.

But am going to make a predic-
tion. The last time 1 did this was
back in 1912. 1 was fortunate
enough to select the correct posi-
tions of the eight clubs that finish
ed in this organization that year,
/ retired on that reputation. So
/ am not going that far for fear my
average of 1000 will suffer.
But. in my opinion, the Washing
ton club will be among the four
clubs that will finish in the first di-
vision.

Never in the history Of New
Iberia has such large crowd Of
people assembled together to wit
NApss a base bali game as that of
T1ast Sunday when Myrtis Park
was packed and jammed with en-
thusiastie base ball fans. The
game was the closing Of the series
between our boys and the Rayne
club. 1t took just exactly eleven
innings to reach a decision, Rayne
scoring the winning run on q hit.
1t was one of the most interesting
and exciting games ever played IN
the Louisiana League. Our neigh
bors from Lafayette played on our
diamond yesterday. Friday, which
will be continued to-day and to-
morrow, Sunday. The manages
expect another large audience to-
morrow. This will close the
twelve games at Myrtis Park, the
New Iberia club will then take the
road to be absent twelve days
when they will return to their own
diamond, starting on May 18th
with OakJale-
a. Following is the box scores:

BABY LEAGUE LIMIT RAISED

Special honor has been con-
ferred upon the Louisiana State
League by the National Associa-
ton in telegram received Mon
day by the league president, which
reads as follows:
Communication requesting
5000 increase in salary limit and
immediate reply, was received to-
day. The application is herewith
granted"
(Signed) j. FL. FARRELL,
Secretary. "
AT the meeting of the league di-
rectors held in Lafayette a week
ago, it took on the nature Of
family conference, with special
reference to salary and player
limits. ALI Clubs were staying
within the $500 limit, but found
it a hardship, owing to the players
demanding more money this sea
son than in the past. 1t was
unanimously voted to ask the Ma
tional Association for special
classification and 5000 a month
salary limit. The request was
transmitted to Secretary Farrell
and the foregoing telegram is in
answer to it. This special class
ification permits each club to
carry fourteen, instead of thir-
teen players, and allows month
ly salary of $1,000, instead of
$500. The class D salary limit
is $1,000. This permission gives
the Louisiana State league the
classification of class d league,
with a class C rating, making it
the ranking class D league of
America.

UNSUITABLE HOMICIDE.

Before the Judge the young man
stood and hung his guilty head,
For he had slain a fellow man
had left him cold and dead.
And as the Jurist was about to
hand the youth his time
He said:-"Y Young fellow, tell me
why you pulled this heinous
crime. "
And as he heard the kindly voice
the young man raised his head.
"This joe was peddling peanuts
at the baseball yard" he, said;
The bases all were full of men,
the score stood 2 to 2,
And as Pat Duncan swung his bat
this rummv blocked my view"
"Not guilty. said the noble
Judge. 81 hereby set you free.
And if you get chance 90 out
and STAY few for me !"

NATURAL RESOURCES TAX.

With the acceptance by the in
dependent oil interests yesterday
Of the two per cent license tax on
natural resources, which was pro-
posed by Goyernor-elect John NJ.
Parker, the industries engaged in
the exploitation and exploration
of the state are united. The pipe
line companies also have accepted
the tax. The timber interests fell
into line early in the week, as did
the gas, naval stores and salt in
dustries. Louisiana is a rich
state. There is an abundance of
fertile acres and of forests, but
great wealth also lies below the
surface of the state. In taxation
there should be equalization. We
believe that the license tax pro-
posed is not unfair under the con-
ditions under which the state is
laboring. It is gratifying that
the interests engaged in the eG-
ploration of the state S natural
resources have agreed with Mr..
Parker and have consented to his
plan of levying a tariff. The ac-
ton of the oil and gas fraternity
especially is commendable, as this
industry is surrounded by great
est risks. There are many disap,
pointments in the drilling Of wells
and by far not every dollar nix
into a well flows forths as Liquid
gold. '-Shreveport Times

TREES 1000 YEARS OLD.

A district logging engineer, with
headquarters at Missoula, Mont, re-
ports that he has seen cedar trees
more than 1900 years old, still alive
and growing in the extreme north
eastern corner of the Kanisku for
est, which is in Washington.
"Those trees" said the engineer,
"varied in size from a foot to ten
feet in diameter. | used a boring
instrument on them and found that
the trees were in all cases 1000 years
old, and some Of them nearly 5000.
The wood is firm and is a potential
source of high-grade timber. know
of no place in the United States, ex-
ept the redwood forests, where
trees of that age may be found"

ORANGE MEANT LIFE TO HIM
Qualification. Of Sick Soldiers Whlm
Aided In Putting Him on Road
TO Recovery.

The Importance Of little things
which go to make up the sum Of hui
man happiness has been forcefully
brought out during the recent war
experiences. We are apt to grow care
less in the busy rush of everyday life
and to neglect many things which,
while seeming trivial, may mean
even life to some one.
In an issue of the Modern Hos
pital an instance is cited which
shows the Importance of small
things. According to the Red Cross
nurses, sick soldiers are not unlike
sick children, and gratifying their
little whims does great deal to put
them on the road to recovery. Be-
cause of this, every effort was made
to supply even the most trifing
things which the soldiers expressed a
wish for. The case in point was that
of a buddy who in his feverish con-
dition craved an acid fruit. Fruit
was hard to secure, but after what
seemed almost insurmountable diff
culties, a big, juicy orange was
placed in his eager hands. The small
supply procurable lasted until his
recovery was assured, and con-
tributed not a little to that much
desired end

CHAUTAUQUA TONI CHIT

The concluding attraction of the
1920 Chautauqua will be given tonight
at Convention Hall.
Jess Pugh, story teller, humorist
and impersonator will be the princi-
Pal feature of the program. Beaulah
Marty and Lillian Seller who gave
a splendid program this afternoon will
also be heard tonight. Both Of these
young women are artists of real abii-
ity and their singing, piano and vio-
lin playing was thoroughly enjoyed.
On account of numerous other at.
fractions, the attendance at the
Chautauqua programs has not been
what the promoters had hoped for,
but those who were fortunate enough
to be present at all Of the attractions
agree that each and every program
was well worth the price of admis-
sion charged for all.
The musical program last night by
Charles F. Horner's own Company,
was one OF the best programs heard
in Ardmore in some time, and those
who failed to attend missed a rare
treat.

OLD FASHIONED BASKET
PICNIC PLANNED FOR
JULY 5 BY LOCAL. POST
Of AM ERR CAN LEGION

1t has been several years since
Ardmore gave an old fashioned basket
picnic on the Fourth of July, but ac-
cording TO a meager report in clrcu-
lation here at present the American
Legion may take the matter in hand
this year and give a big barbecue
Monday, July 5th.
This has been suggested by promi-
nent members of the legion and in
all probability some definite action
Will be taken in the matter at oncee
This would be the first occasion
when every eX-service man in this
section Of the state could get together
and swap remniscence and tell the
part each played in the great war
over there" beside it would give
many the first opportunity of becom.
ing acquainted with each other and TO
enjoy a day Of genuine pleasure.
If the plan materializes the picnic
will probably be held at Wilmington
Park,
