complete the records of the Mime
sofa Naval militia.
The Bemidji division is composed
of members of both bodies, the Naval
Militia being: 9 state organization
but without financial appropriations
for the use Of the Organization. The
Naval Reserve Force 1s a|federal Or
ganization, the members of which
are paid for their drills and appro-
priations are available for the equip
ping and authorizing of its members.
Being members Of both forces 1t has
been possible to get the appropria-
tions for the equipment and also for
the construction of the armory, the
latter being a state appropriation.
There are to be seven Great Lakes
cruises this summer for members Of
the naval reserve force. The men,
bers may choose which one of the
seven they will take but only one

Boss, femme out on that coachin' line." entreats Eczema. T wanna talk to that boy in the box. I craves to talk to him right now,"
 I didn't know why, but I sent our galloping domino marvel out to relieve Wrigley at third base, and Eczema lost no time in getting under full head of steam.
 Roll 'em bones, Mistah Boomahi Roll 'em bones! I wants actionl"
 The big pitcher gave a start and let loose a wild pitch. Tuffy and North advanced a base.
 Lady luck left yo' last night, boy, and Lady Luck am leavin' yo' now How come yo' th'ow that baseball like it was dice?" Eczena was gleeful-
 Buzz Boomer muttered something and failed to get the next three balls over to Worth. The pillows were packed.
 "Shoot a hunnerd dollahs, Mistah Boomah, Lovin' dice, put yo' ahms aroun' me, l. sees seven. Read 'em and moan, boysi"
 Buzz Boomer was plainly upset by these mouthings. He complained bit terly to the umpire. But Eczema chat tered on, and Muddy Clay walked. foro- ing in the run that knotted the count Come eleven.

 But Mir Boomer was gone.

CHAPTER XVIII

This visit from the alleged detective made me a bit sore. I made up my mind to have a heart-to heart chin with Brewster. If there wasn't some mighty good reason for all the prowl- ing I was gonna have the hide of one Mir. Hyde.
 Then remembered V. Morgan had been excused from the game to make a flight with an aviator friend from the field near town. During the well and widely known war Brewster had worn the wings himself, and believing Nanny Hutton and North would be abundant hurling talent for the matinee mixup, had permitted his absence.
 As soon as he returned, however. I intended to get a few puzzles solved. There was gonna be no more mystery with Squawl1 McGuff.
 A very large crowd. manly colored turned out for our game at Black Sox park, roomy and spacious onion patch with rather limited seating capacity. Numbers of the fans had to stand. but that didn't ruin their enthusiasm.
 The afternoon was hot, but no hotter than that ball game. I was in a crab by humor, and the boys must h2Ee thought I was peeved at them. They went out and lived up to their name, playing like Wildcats.
 A husky starboard beaver, with a complexion like a ton of anthracite. was on the bill. Buzz Boomer was his monicker, and I'm here to warble that big colored chucked had about as much speed and control as any white man l ever lamped For five innings he turned us back in order, and chalked up a lotta strikeouts
 Edgar North was flinging flosSy ball himself. I don't think the left-hander had looked so good any time on the trip. He was getting gilt-edged, dia- mond beaded support from the rest oi the Evergreens. They were fielding the apple like athletes from the big show, At the end of the fifth nobody had scored, and the rooters were hunting for throat lozenges.
 Muddy Clay got a hit in the sixth stanza, but Buzz Boomer kept him stranded on first In the last half oi the inning Lefty North stumbled.
 He walked a fat little black. The next batter was retired OF fly, and g cloudy six -footer helped himself to three cuts in vain. Boomer, quite 3 hitter, was now up.
 Bear down there, Lefty, bear down.' I yell. He's yours."
 With two strikes to the good how ever, North let go fat one. and Mir Boomer planted the ash against it fol wicked welt to deep left.
 Simp Simpson might have snared it but he misjudged the smack and rar in The result was a triple for Buzi Boomer and a tally for the Black Sox One run was whale of a lead, the way 1 Boomer was chucking
 Eczema, on the bench, was grum' bling.
 "How come nobody done hit tha boy?" he gurgles. That boy ain't go nothing, nohow.'
