sinned. '"That dipping. everlasting
breeze has spoiled my crop of early
peas. Doggone the wind, that

CROUCHES
By DR.. w. e. BARTON

Many people labor hard to be un-
comfortable. I know some of them.
and their industry is commendable.
and worthy of a better cause.
It is easy to nurse a crouch. but
there are people who devote them
selves to the task with a persistence
which compels admiration.
Some one has hurt you? Quite pos
sibly, but how much he has hurt
you depends upon yourself.
If he has done an unworthy thing
to you, he has hurt himself far more
than he has hurt you: indeed. I am
not sure that in the end you will be
hurt at all If you r brave about 1t.
The oyster is not an animal whom
I greatly admire.
He is moi as brave as the lion. and
does not fly as gracefully as the
eagle, and he does not sing as sweet
ly as the lark.

But the oyster does this fine thing

VIOLA GETS The REMNANT
DEFEATS RICHLAND CENTER
LAST SUNDAY
A Crowd of 5000 People Witness the
Deciding Come at the
Grove

A crowd of at least 5000 fans gath
cred at Soldiers Grove last Sunday
to witness the deciding game of the
season between Viola and Richland
Center. Big Benn once more proved
his supremacy as a pitcher, leading
the Viola team to victory and owner
ship of the coveted pennant by 2 TO
0 score. Daugherty pitched for the
Center, and both twirlers were credit
ed with good throwing, but Benn was
the master of the situation at all
times. The Center got two hits off
him in the first inning but could not
score and never came so close TO it
again. Ben and Harris got two-base
hits off Daugherty. Violas first tally
came when Harris doubled.got to third
and scored on a squeeze play. Big Ben
laying down bunt. Their second
score was made when three men hit
in succession, and the Center's short
interfered with a runner while field
ing a ball and bobbled It.
The feature of the game was the
utter absence of roofing and bitter
ness. The big crowd apparently did
not care who won the game. We're
glad Viola won the rag, for she has
adhered closely to the playing of her
home boys all season
