CALGARY S0X BEAT
HOME TEAM 8 TO 0

Valley City base ball fans witnessed
the home team in bad plight Thurs
day in their game with the Calgary
Black Sox. Hard hitting by the visi7
tors and erratic fielding by the locals
resulted in nine innings of rather un-
interesting base ball with a score of 8
to 0, in favor Of the visitors.
Gourd, pitching for Valley City,
seemed to be unable to get going and
his curves were cutting the plate
square in two, which was much to the
liking of the colored sluggers and they
were eating them up like watermelons.
On the other hand, Avery, pitching for
the Sox, was in good form and had
|,everything on the ball with the result
that Valley only gathered four SCAT
tering hits while the visitors were
chalking up IL, in which were includ-
ed one homer and two triplets.
The game brought out some OF the
weakness Of the home team and dis
ployed the necessity of stronger out
field before we have a finished base
ball machine. The home run by Scot
tie should have been held to single
but for the fact that Sad allowed 1t
to go through him. While the error
column only charges three errors, yet
if poor judgment could be called err
rors, the number would have been ma
terially increased. :,
New material to strengthen the
weaker positions in the local line up
are now on the way and it is only a
question of another week until the
material necessary will be on hand and
the machine will then be re-oiled and
will show better team work all along
the line.
However. it is no disgrace to lose
game to the Calgary Black Sox, for
when they make UP their mind to play
ball its good base ball team that
can keep them from scoring.
The game Thursday was good one
even though one-sided and is really
the first time that the fans have had
chance to look the local team over
with any degree of certainty as to
their Individual ability.
Today will be the third of the series
of five games to be played here against
the Black Sox and the game today will
be called at 6:15 to allow everybody
to attend. The game Saturday will be
called at $3.50 and the Sunday game at
800.
Briefly the game is told as follows

Batteries-Sox: Avery and Bray;

Summary-Home run, Reed; three

SLACKERS ARE
BEING WATCHED

The management Of the Baseball
Association is somewhat disappointed
at the attitude displayed by consid-
cradle number of our prominent cltl-
zens at yesterdays game between the
fast Calgary aggregation and our To-
cal invincibles. The association did
not have time to enclose the entire
ball park, with the result that the
aforesaid prominent citizens took adj
vantage of them, and witnessed yes
terday's game by the rubberneck route
or cheap skate route. The man.
agement is sorely disappointed as
they did not think that Valley City
had any citizens that were small
enough to do trick Of this kind, but
apparently we have and if the per-
Torrance is repeated, they intend to
take a photograph Of them and have
the same published. Realizing that
the small boys of the town are always
anxious to see a ball game, the man.
agement has decided upon the. ex-
tremely low price Of 10 cents for ad-
mission and the parents should make
arrangements to allow their children
10 cents to see the game. The man.
agement wants to notify the public
that thirty acres of the land adjoin-
ing the ball park is leased by the as
ISOLATION and anyone occupying space
on said grounds during game. with:
out, paying admission, is, guilty of
trespass and if Yesterdays performs
ance is repeated it may be necessary
to have the trespassers arrested and
fined. The association needs every
cent possible to make the ball team
success, and surely anyone that is
sufficiently interested to attend
game, ought to be willing to pay the
nrice Of admission. -.

Knew Nothing of Law

The treasury department repudia-
ton of the use of Mr.. Whites name
came after stormy session in which
it is said Secretary Mellon, Assistant
Secretaries Gilbert and Wadsworth
and Mr.. White participated. It is un-
derstood that Mr.. White convinced
department officials he had no in
tention wrongfully to use the infiu-
ence of his Office in behalf of the
Bank of North Dakota or the Non
partisan League. He frankly ad
mitted that he knew nothing Of the
federal law which forbids what he
had done. Mr.. White has been in
Office less than month and has
many things about it yet to learn.

ing the impression that the United
States treasury department was in
dorsing any securities other than the
obligations of the government of the
United States, it was stated here
today at the North Dakota bond
sales headquarters after Secretary
of the Treasury Mellon had authorized
statement saying Colonel Whites
Endorsement was without authority
from the treasury department..
Said Securities Were Good
Colonel Whites statement was in
tended simply to be used in canvass
ing individuals for the sale of the
bonds. Colonel White had no hest
fancy in saying that the North d.
kota bonds are rated among the best
securities that are now being Of
fered to the public. He stated that
the highest court in the land has
passed on the legality of the gond
issue, and that there was no question
as to the bond being in proper form.
and further stated that the state of
North Dakota has always met it's OBJ
legations and that the debt per capita
Of the Estate is about the lowest of
any in the union, and that ample
provision has been made for the
sinking fund as the payment of the
interest when due.

Fuel From Wheat Straw.

A ton Of sun-dried wheat straw has
been found from the Canadian expert
n,ents to have fuel value about equal
to that Of 81 gallons Of gasoline. 1t
yields about 10000 cubic feet Of puri-
fed gas. coo to $50 pounds Of carbon
residue. and about 10 gallons Of tarry
liquid. The gus, which has caloric
value Of about 400 British thermal
units per cubic foot. burns with a
blue flame. and has a slight odor. Its
cOmbustible constituents are carbon
mOnOXide. methane and hydrogen. The
carbon residue Is capable Of being re-
duced to very fine powder.

He was about n years old and leaves

OL.D.TIVME COLD CURE
DRINK HOT TEAL

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take q
tablespoonful of the tea, put q cup Of
boiling water upon 1t, pour through a
sieve and drink teacup full at any
time during the day or before retiring.
It is the most effective way to break
a cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion.
Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking
up cold.
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. It is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

NOTICE ExlSERYIcE MEN

The American Red Cross in Weak
ley county has exhausted its funds
and unless money is Immediately
raised by the people to carry on the
work until November of this year
the office at Dresden, of which Miss
Mamie Tansil is home service secre-
tary, will be closed at once. This
must not happen as it will mean that
the ex-service men of the county will
have no place to go to get their
claims filed in order that they may
get their compensation and hospital
treatment. This work is very compli-
Gated and must be done exactly right
or the government cannot pass on the
claims. 1t takes highly trained per-
sons to do this work and the entire
time of one person is taken up; there
fore it is necessary to keep a paid
worker on the job at all times.
The soldier work is increasing
every day and today more soldiers
are filing claims than at any period
since the war. The following will
give the public some idea of what
is being done for the disabled sol
diers of Weakley county:
Er-service men in government
hospitals receiving treatment
today ------------------30
Ex-service men taking vocation
al training in the various
schools Of the country
Ex-service men with cases pend
ing for compensation, who
have tuberculosis and must go
to government hospitals just
as soon as their claims are adj
justed --------------------37
Ex-service men that filed claims
for compensation since Janua-
ry 1, 1921, only a small per
cent of these claims have been
passed upon to date ---------150
Ex-service men who have been
passed upon since January /,
who are waiting for hospital
treatment and should go to the
hospital at the very earlist pos
sible moment----------------65I
Miss Mamie Tansil, through the
Red Cross, has already secured COM
pensation for over 100 ex-service
men and the total amount coming
into the county each month is over
$4,000 for these men. This means
over 100000 year coming into the
county. Wneh every disabled soldier
gets what is justly due him from the
government the above amount will
be doubled.
