This has been busy week with our
Hartford soldiers in camp at EdgewoOc
Arsenal; "Reveille" at $40 gives am
pie time for an eight hour day Al
then some. The mornings have be u
utilized to train the men in company
and other movements while In tho ~
ternoon the men not engaged in base
ball have been given swimming in
structions; regimental parade Is held
in the evening. On Tuesday the boys
had their first contact with gas. They
were given gas masks and il did not
take them long to find out how to use
them when the gas was turned loose.
That evening the First and Fifth Reg
iments passed in review before Gen.
Reckord. Gen. Pershing was distin-
guished visitor to camp on Wednesday
ana on Thursday Gov. Richie visited
Edgewood to review the soldiers OF
which he has the honor to be Comman-
der. in-Chief.
Pleasing ceremonies Of both mill
tary and social nature were arranged
for each of these honOred guests.
The boys are expected home Satr.
day and will doubtless be wiser and
better soldiers by reason OF their two
weeks experience at the Arsenal.

BEL AIR 0UT-CLAssES BLOOMER
GIRLS

The largest crowd of the season
ficcked to the ball park Friday to wit
mes ness the game with the Bloo,ner Girls.
Through the courtesy Of the office of
the Commissioner Of Motor Vehicles
State policemen were present to direct
traffic and parking of cars so that the
large crowd was handled with little
confusion.
The girls were very fair girl players
but the score Of l2 to z shows quite
conciusively that they were playing n
little beyond their class when they
tackled Bel Air. Three men were in
their line up after the first inning in
which they discovered their girl pitcher
to be rather ineffective against Bel Air
sluggers. Roy Coale, once the pitch
ing idol of our fans but for two seasons
past with Aberdeen, twirled for Bel
Air. The chief difficulty he experience
ell in the game was in getting Umpire
Earl Lloyd to let him off with pitching
less than six strikes TO each girl batter.

RESULTS BEST GOTTEN THRU
LOVE

The attendance and interest in Com,
munity Services at st. Mary's reached
their climax last Sunday night w,tL
the last service Of the series for
year.
Mr.. Roy Brookes spoke on the
"Church, the Grange and the Public
School In Relation To Rural Develop
ment." The church he said should
give up preaching hell fire and preach
the doctrine Of love which was, in prac'
teal form, the aim Of the Grange.
Helpfulness and fellowship, coopera.
tio,. and kindliness we're, and should
be, the aim OF both Church and the
Grange. The Public Schools, he tho't
should teach agriculture, or at least
inculcate q love for II. At present TOO
much of our public school education
tended TO produce social unrest by
making our young people dissatisfied
with farm life.
Mr.. j. B. Peery gave a fine talk on
conscientious Citizenship" in which
he strongly endorsed the Rector's sug-
gestion Of Sunday, 23rd Of July that
profit sharing is the real remedy for
strikes. He illustrated this BY the
case of two firms.

CHAUTAUQUA FEVER SPREAD
ING

As the time for Chautauqma an
proaches keener interest ia being mani
Tested in the program. According to
advance notices many treats are in
store so that purchasers of season tick
cts are assured Of getting more than
their moneys worth.
An increased effort will be made this
season to prevent any deficit to the
guarantors. 1t should be borne in mind
that only season tickets go towards
the guarantee, so that tickets should
be bought in advance rather than SIN
gle admissions at the gate.
Chautauqua plays an important part
in the community's educational and
entertainment welfare but it cannot
continue to exist at the expense OF a
few public spirited individuals. Bear
this in mind when a ticket seller calls
on you.
