A we'll played game by both sides
was witnessed Sunday, July 4th, by
over 200 who were behind the Cubs
from the sound of the gong. The bat
terry of the Kendrick team were too
large to oppose 12 to ID year old
team. Their team work was not as
good as the Cubs, especially their out
field work. One of the leading fea-
lures of the game was a vault with
out the pole) made by Hans Adrian
son in running first to second base.
While the Kendrick second baseman
was stopped to pick up the ball near
his base, Hans surprised him by
vaulting over him and landing on the
second sack safely. Second feature
was hot drive between the legs of
the Kendrick short stop, and on to
the race track from the "Home run

Moscow Cubs 13, American Ridge, IL.
A rather rough ball ground was
played on July 9th between the Cubs
and American Ridge team, the same
team the Cubs opposed on July 4th
under the name of Kendrick, only the
American Ridge boys eliminated the
grown pitcher and catcher and used
Cub size. The game was a snappy
one, as both teams played first class
ball, mostly depending upon which
side was luckiest in figuring out
which way the ball would bounce
after hitting bump. In the first
part of the game up until the seventh
inning the Cubs were held scoreless
and the fans were about to have heart
failure for the score stood 7 to in
favor American Ridge in the last half
of the seventh, but in the eight the
ball bounced in our favor and we were
able to make scores in the 9th and
in the 9th which told the tale. Otta
who pitched for American
Ridge is one of the best little twirlers
in the game and is a coming Lacquer.
He has perfect control and a fine de-
livery, always works hard for their

was excellent. The attendance was

BIRD BUILDS NEST
IN TRAVELLED ROAD
Putney Carrier Though Dummerston
Says Grlilford Carriers Have No
Monopoly of Poor Roads.

Editor of The Reformer:-
An article in recent issue of The
Reformer moves me to say the Brat
tleboro carriers have no monopoly of
the poor roads in this locality.
The Putney carriers have their share
For instance a certain section of road
in Dummerston, on account of its ex-
tremely poor condition, was so little
travelled in the summer of 1919 that a
ground bird built its nest in the mid
die of the road. The road men men
came to make repairs, but they did
not disturb the nest, so the bird was
allowed to rear its young in safety.
Apparently the same bird has its
nest near the same place this year and
as the same officials have charge of af-
fairs it will no doubt be safe in its
home.
1t is touching to see such mercy
shown to our feathered friends. but d
little to the human bipeds and his fliv-
yer would be appreciated as we'll

STEAMER FIRE
IS EXTINGUISHED
A Norwegian Vessel With 1900 Pas
sengers Has One Boiler Disabled
BY Blaze and Explosion.

NEW YORK, June 5.-The Norwegian
steamer Bergensfiord, which was reported
afre 100 miles east of Fire island early
this morning, reported later that the fire
was under control and that the vessel
was proceeding on her way. Tie Ber-
gensfjord sailed yesterday for Bergen
with passenger list qf l,2o0 including
1873 first cabin and 229 second cabin pas
sengers. The vessel is Of l0,7O9 tons gross
burden and is owned by the Norwegian
American steamship company.
A message received by officials of the
line from Captain Bull said the fire had
been confined to the engine room, where
one boiler was rendered useless. \ pipe
exploded causing confusion among the
passengers for a time, they said. No one
from the flames had been averted Captain
Bull decided to proceed.

COMMANDER CLAPP
VOICES SENTIMENT
Lesson of World War Was Service for
Others, and Brattleboro People Now
Have Opportunity to Sacrifice for
Community's Benefit. -s.tsss 30.

Quite appropriately the first response
to The Reformer S offer yesterday to
publish letters pro and con on the sub
lect of a memorial community build
ing in Brattleboro comes from Com
mander Pearl t. Clapp of the Brattle-
boro post of the American Legion. Mr..
Clapp voices the sentiment of the or
ganization in expressing himself de-
eidedly in favor of Building in pre-
ference to any other form of memorial.
and in view of the fact that the me-
mortal is to be in memory of those
who participated in the World war
everyone will recognize the fact that
the wishes of the organization are en-
titled at least to careful consideration.
1t is hoped that other communications
viii be received. Following is Mr..
Clapp's letter:
Forum Editor of The Reformer:-
In view of the action of the War
Chest association on Wednesday even
ing in appropriating their balance for
| a memorial for the young men and
women of Brattleboro who served in
| the recent war. the American Legion
at this time deems it fitting to offer its
views and its suggestion to the public
regarding a proposed memorial. In do
ing this the Legion does not speak for
Iitself alone, but voices what it believes
is the attitude of all who have been
| in the service in the recent war or in
previous wars.
We believe that one of the great
lessons of the World war was that of
service for others, of sacrifice that the
condition of others might be bettered.
Our boys went to war to make such
sacrifice as might DE necessary to ina
prove the conditions of other people.
There is now an opportunity presented
to the people of Brattleboro to make
sacrifices that they themselves, their
families, and their community may be
benefited
Brattleboro is asked to give money
to build a community house that NAV
offer to her children and her children z
children facilities for play, athletics
and education which are now sorely
missed. We believe that this proposed
community house will meet Brattle-
boro's need.
$ Inc American Legion suggests that
4 Brattleboro's memorial take the form
s of community house and believes
' that such memorial would be a
' fitting portrayal of the service
i rendered the world by our soldiers and
d sailors, in that it would be of supreme
e service and lasting effect upon the citi
s. zens of Brattleboro and her future gen
erations. We know of no better way
in which Brattleboro could show hel
appreciation of the services of hel
boys and girls in time of war in help
ing the world and all peoples than BY
" emulating their example and doing thai
which will help Brattleboro more thar
:. any other thing that could be don.
: at this time.
