Academy Notes.
BASEBALL

The B. A. baseball team lost to Or
leans High, 6 to 8, at Orleans, May
25. Orleans scored all it's runs in the
first three innings and Barton
couldn't catch up with them. Gallup
pitched a beautiful game and kept
the hits we'll scattered and famed 10.
C. Twombly hit superbly for o. H.
S., getting ringing drives. Hardy
and A. Twombley also got three
each. Carter was touched up quite
frequently by the Orleans hitters.
Saturday, May %, Barton lost it's
second game of the week to Derby
Academy at Derby, to 0. The whole
story of the game was Moulton, the
D. A. twirler. He famed Is batters
and allowed but z hits. Time after
time he struck out batters with the
bases full. Hanson twirled for B.
A. and put up fine exhibition, keep
ing the D. A. batters popping up or
hitting into the dirt. But for some
bad bounds and equally bad breaks
he wouldn't have been scored on.
On Monday afternoon, before a
large crowd, B. A. took the rubber
game from Orleans, at Skinner Park,
by the score of z to 5. Barton scored
three in the first, two in the second
and two in the fourth. Orleans
scored one in the second, three in the
fourth and one in the sixth. There
were many sparkling plays during the
game and also some errors. Spinger
made one sensational diving catch
and Cornish also contributed fine
running clutch. Twombly played a
nifty game at third
Galllp pitched well striking out
more than Carter but the hits were
nine each. Valley, Buchanan and
Smith hit best for B. A. while Spring
err got three hits beside making the
really wonderful catch.

How to Make Pet Of Toad.

The next time you see a toad pick
1t up, place it on your knee and gently
stroke its back with your finger tip.
In a few minutes it will squat down
close to your knee and then you can
take your hand away and it will make
no effort to escape. If you can catch
a few flies and put them one by one
on your finger and slowly thrust your
gift toward the toad the latter's pink
tongue will shoot out and accept the
gift In a second. Do this every day,
and the toad, will not only come to
your whistle, or call, but will hunt
you up If you are in the yard or gar
den where it lives. By placing 1t on
your knee a few times it soon loses
it's fear. and lastly you will find it OBJ
jects to be taken off the warm resting
place, and will flatten itself down in
protest as you try to lift it off.

Commencement activities began
Sunday night with the baccalaureate
sermon preached in the M. E. church
by Rev. M. A. Turner to the 1921
graduating class of Barton high
school, numbering 10 young people.
The church was tastefully decorat-
ed, the choir rendered special music
and Mr.. Turner was assisted in the
service by Rev. j. j. Hutchinson.
There was a large audience. Mr..
Turner took for his text Ecclesiastics
$40, Whatsoever thy hand fndeth to
do, do it with thy might" AS sub
ject he said he would call it S'The
Golden Hour" and the thoughts he
gave the graduates were most timely
and most practical. He said oppor-
tunities come-the golden hour-and
then. our education must be put to
use. Not all avenues of service are
pleasant ones, but to serve is never
theless, the end and aim of education.
Education is not simply thing with
which to get living, but it is that
which should teach us to live. He
urged the development of the individ-
ual as against the copyist idea and
strongly urged the necessity of being
growing person. Graduation but
marks an important step. Develop
ment from now on spells success or
failure.
The annual reception of the Junior
class to the seniors was held in Alum
nj hall Monday evening and was a
brilliant affair. The hall was most
tastefully decorated and arranged.
The New Harmony orchestra of Or
leans furnished music during the
evening and for the dance which was
enjoyed by an unusually large num-
Der of friends of the school.
Roy Valley and Miss Bernice Ray
of the junior class, Prin. and Mrs.
Merrill, Prof. Lee, Supt. and Mrs.
Batchelder, Miss Dutton Mr.. and Mrs.
F. D. Pierce and Prof. Durham were
in the receiving line. Refreshments
of ice cream and waters were served.
Events for the rest of. the
week are Class day exercises tonight
in Alumni hall, Commencement exer-
cises in Seaver's hall Thursday night
and the Alumni banquet at Hotel Bar
ton Friday evening.
