The facts of the matter is that the woman has

With the Senators presenting a
very creditable brand of the
national pastime in most of their
games on the Twelfth street lot,
there remains only one untitled
need to elinch the support of local
fans and insure the success of the
venture-efficient and capable
umpIrlng.
Such exhibitions of officiating
as marked the contest between
Salem and Albany yesterday. and
other similar occurances in prev
ious games, coupled with the in
cident wrangling and delay of the
games while players and officials
exhibit their vocal proclivities, are
doing more to kill interest in the
games here than anything else
could.

Babb delivering in the placed of
Coleman for the visitors the Sen
ators also slammed out bevy of

MAN is a creature of habit,
Some OF his habits are good and some of them
are bad. Most of them are good, because the
human animal is SO delicate an organism that
there has to be republican majority of good
habits to keep him going
In fact, good habits are not only an economy
of effort = making it possible to accomplish
more with less attention and less effort of the
will they are also the fundamental presup.
positions that make life at all possible.
The heart has good habit of pumping blood
without your having to think about it.
The lungs have good habit of supplying the
system with oxygen.
The nerves have good habit of sending in
Simultaneous messages to the brain about what
is happening to you.
The nerves have such good habits that when
they send the message to your brain that your
hand has touched something too hot they do
not wait for the General Staff in your head to
call a conference of your numerous impulses
and inhibitions to determine whether or not to
remove the hand from the hot object Your
nerves have habit of sending back message
about what to do right away.
The same thing holds true Of affairs on
higher plane.
man keeps his contracts, pays his bills
supports his family, votes, and goes through
all the ordinary actions of daily life as citizen
and civilized human being because he has these
good habits, and he leads good life when he
has good habits.
A man buys largely as matter of habit,
He buys at place he likes because he is well
treated and he finds the values satisfactory
More likely than not, the word of friend or
the printed word of friendly advertisement
got him there to begin with.
And the store where he buys lets him knO"
about any special sales of stocks, pleasantly anu
