Unless our democracy is a dismal pre-

it be for those who like to parade them

pitching machine out there on the

Washington shortstop faltered in the

but recovered in time to get Myatt at

one OF the most thrilling finishes
seen in many days anywhere.
Three fine nelding plays were seen
during the afternoon, one by Stanley

The little third-sacker came across

Charity begins at home as the
old saw says. Yet old saws IN these
days have not the authority they
once possessed. Yet the truth Of their
message is not affected by their age

tario men and women have many
times been called upon to give to-
ward worthy causes; from far off
Armenia, to the slums Of the cities
of our own state, funds have gone to
ameliorato conditions. They have
been needed, the cause was worthy,
and that was all that was needed to
secure the manifestation of Ontlr-
ians generosity
Yet all the while there has been
an institution here at home, which
at times. has felt the pinch of lack
OF funds; whose management has
not been able to make needed im-
provements because they could not
bo financed. This institution Is the
Holy Rosary hospital
