Amateur Baseball.

People who love baseball become very
critical about it. They are sore on any.
Thing short of major league talent. If
a player makes one error, they yell to
have him taken out They commonly
feel that if a town can't afford fast
professional team, it is not worth hay
ing any team at all. So they are apt
to discourage attempts to organize
baseball on an amateur basis to take in
lot of the common run of players.
Yet you don't. get the good results of
athletic sport by sitting up on bleacher
boards and watching someone else
acquire skill and develop his muscle.
The city of Dayton, Ohio, worked out
very we'll last year the benefits of
amateur baseball They had had
trouble in getting backing enough for a
good professional team So they under
took to organize amateur ball, and $15,-
600 was secured. They formed SO
teams, played 1876 games, before audi
ences aggregating 100000 people.
There were 1906 players.
Over thousand men were thus en-
couraged to keep up their athletic de-
velopment. The aggregate of the audi
ences must have been larger than a
team could expect to draw in a season
in that sized city. Young people were
given a wholesome recrea ton and sport,
and encouraged to find their enjOyments
at home.

Judge Urges Moderation.

Following. are extracts from a talk
given to eight young men of Ada,
charged with serious crimes in district
court at that place, by Judge Grinde-
land of Warren, at the recent term Of
court held there: sss, 49,
Young men, I have been on the bench
for eighteen years and have never
felt as badly over so many boys: it is a
serious matter, young men, and it is
hard to say what is best to do with
you. ..5 ..s@ 2
It is a situation that we face right
now that our young people have gone
amusement crazy. During the war the
price Of labor was high and scarce
hard to get at any price, consequently
your father and your parents needed
you, needed your services, but knowing
that the wages were SO high and scarce,
boys became independe nt I; they didn't
want to take their orders from their
father many cases now they want
to dictate to their ather. Now, j know.
that is the situat lion. You talk with

Home Town Feeling.

The home town means a lot more TO
some people than to others. Some peo-
pie do not feel close ties to any place.
They move around without feeling Of
regret or loss. They do not feel badly
to part with the friends they make, be-
cause they do not create intimate ties.
They do not acknowledge obligation to
work in cooperation with their fellow
citizens, and no one, feels any obligation
to help them along. They play lone
hand all their days, and never get far.
Other people have an intense feeling
of loyalty binding them to the home
soil. It is partly sentimental affection.
partly keen sense of the advantages
of business unity and cooperation.
They feel united by common tie to
all the people who live in the town.
Warren has a lot of people of this
kind, who have been the .mainstay of
al! our progress They feel keen in
terest in every person or thing that was
ever connected with the place, and any
project tending to work for it's benefit
has their hearty and enthusiastic sup
port. -
In so far as all our people acquire
that point of view, we shall attain our
ideals as community. This involves
giving preference in all our business
relations to anything that comes from
the home town. If a suit of clothes
sold here is just as good as one bought
somewhere else, we should buy the suit
of clothes sold here. We might well
buy it, even if it was not quite so good,
but it is not necessary in. our good
stores to make that kind of sacrifice.
When "a, town fully acquires = that
unity of spirit and purposes and feel
ing, the possibilities of its progress are
enormous. It advances US a compact
mass of people devoted to one end, not
as lot of separate individuals all
working for diverse purposes. = = = =:

The Path of Life.

There used to be popular air en-
TITLED, "When You Get What You
Want You Don't Want It,. How really
true this works out in real life can only
be conjectured, yet. in. a great many
cases and under large number of cir
cumstances in the average life it is
certainly true. When but child the
average person has innumerable visions,
dreams and anticipations about the fu-
ture and the many desired prizes of life.
The day comes when many OF these
things become reality and oftentimes,
how shallow, how void Of the antici-
pated pleasures they often are. Truly,
humanity, in many instances, is blow
ing Bubbles" and "Chasing Rainbows. "
Wealth, honor, attachments, when
reached OF secured, sink into the
routine of life, eclipsed by some new de
sire, some new vision over the horizon
of the present day. Perhaps, it is well
that prizes sought, once gained, are not
the joys they seemed from out the dim
past, else there would,#n doubt, be
little progress in the cycle of human
existence. If all who seek and find
that which they seek, attained their
hearts desire. and then rested secure in
the sweetness of that dream come true
little vuull really be accomplished in
the way Of progress. Early dreams
come true. would halt efforts toward
the realization Of those greater and
finer dreams of mature years. Civil
ization would lag and the wheels OF
progress would grind considerably
slower as result. Dreams, anticipa.
tons, visions, all of the joys that lie
just ahead in the road Of life, are but
incentives to "carry' on' in the great
game bridging the chasm from despair
to success.
