The kindest thing God ever made, y
His hand of very healing laid
Upon a fevered world, is shade.
His glorious company of trees
Throw out their mantles, and on these
The dust-stained wanderer finds ease.
Green temples, closed against tho beat
OF noontime's binding glare and heat,
Open to any pilgrims feet.
The white road blisters in the sun;
Now, half the weary journey done,
Enter and rest, o weary one!
And feel the dew of dawn still wet
Beneath thy feet, and forget
The burning highways ache and fret.
This is Gods hospitality,
And whose rests beneath a tree
Hath cause to thank him gratefully.

request, President Boyer notified

pended were Charles DySert and

TIE only one suspended was Pedone,
for the former has been out OF the
game for q week with a badly sprain-
ed leg and would not have been able
to return for & week Or SO more.
The three class" players retained
are Manager Mowrey, Jack Hurley
and Gardner.
In speaking Of the matter yester'
day afternoon. President Boyer ex-
planned that it was evident under
the league rules that Hagerstown
had five class" players, but that II
could be shown when the league
meeting is held that there was no
intent on the part of either himself
or Manager Mowrey to evade the
rule. In the case of Gardner, he
pointed out. the local management
did not know that Gardner was con
sidered a class" player until the
Hanover protest had been made.
rcr did Gardner himself know he
vas a class player. Until Febru.
AIRY OF this year Winston-Salem, of

class during the past two months.
In the case OF Dysert Mr.. Boyer
said, there was no reason that this
player should be considered "class'
player. Dysert, he pointed out has
been playing in the league ever
since there was Blue Ridge League
yet he must be considered "class"
player Just because some years be-
fore there was league organized
in these parts, he played several
games for Baltimore.
1.-The rule against class players
was not ratified by the Blue Ridge
League for the purpose OF keeping
sucn players from playing in this
circuit" said Mr.. Boyer. bat to
prevent . team, who had been play
ing poorly from spending several
thousand dollars 70 win ths psnnant
by bringing in high class players.
Hagerstown has not done this and
docs not intend to do So"
In the caes Of Pedone, Mr.. Boyer
pointed out. 1t was admitted even by
President Janison, that it would be
unfair to consider this player a
class" player and therefore prohib-
it him from playing on that account
In this case neither Hanover nor
any other club can accuse Hagers-
town OF loading up. for Pedone was
only taken on because he had been
cast-off by Wayne5boro at a time
when Hagerstown was playing
pitchers in the outfield because they
could not get an outfielder. Some
years back, Pedone, another player
who has been in the Blue Ridge
League for several years played for
the Wilmington. Del, club of the old
| Tri-State League, a circuit not as
fast as this, yet of a higher class.
Pedone played a few games over the
required "class" limit when he was
injured. He never played another
game after that for years until he
came to Waynesboro last season.
Hanover has no chance, it was
stated yesterday, of having the five
| games won by Hagerstown thrown
out, for there is no provision pro-
vfding for such penalty. This can
not be done unless fraud, fs shown,
and in the Hagerstown case IL will
be impossible.
President Boyer said yesterday
that at the league meeting violations
of the ''class" rule by other clubs
would be shown, but that he would
not press any charges az did Han
over There are certain players on
other clubs, who can be termed as
| class players under the Blue Ridge
ruling that should not be consider
ed such, Mr.. Boyer said. 81 do not
believe that anv club manager in
tends to evade this ruling, but be-
! iiaVe that where players have been
here as long as the league has, they
should be given consideration and
not be driven out OF job just be.
4 cause they played perhaps ten years
4 ago In few games for some league,
when r higher class one, but IN
reality q much slower league than
the Blue Ridge League really is,''
Mr.. Boyer declared
The matter will be thrsshed out
at the league meeting, Mr.. Boyer
said, and he stated that he expect.
cd that better understanding of
the object of the ruling would be
secured by those attending
But until then, Hagerstown will
play b three class" players. Now
