Hi Boys. VIII Have
Athletic Training Camp

On next Wednesday morning
about twenty of the best high
school boys, accompanied by
Prof. G. j. Thayer will leave for
White Sulphur Springs n e r
Colfax for real athletic camp life
forseveral days.
T:h s is an. idell- place + o r
a camp and fishing and swim.
ming is superior to any pla C e
found in central Louisiana.
Football will be the real major
sport and the new changes and
rules will be s t.udie d from all
angles of the game. No scrim-
mage, however, will be allowed.
Military training and organized
play will also be represented.
An important lecture will be
given each day by some promi-
nent man on boy problems of TO-
day. This camp is only open to
Glenmora High School boys who

Tank Being Erected
In. Bank Block

The business men located in
t h e, block with the Glenmora
Bank & Trust Co., consisting of
j. s. Gerson. j. F. Powers, J.sO.
McCrery and L. Lipsitz are hav-
ing erected a thirty foot tank to
supply them with water, also to
be used by them in case of fire.
Its a pity that growing and
prosperous little city like Glen
mora can't have a water system
covering the entire town. The re-
duction in insurance rates would
in the, course of ten years very
near cover the cost of install
alton.

OUR BASE BALI.
CLUB TROUBLE

TO one who has sat on the
bench and recorded each au1

There is nothing wrong Wit
the pitching, Afeld and in tbs
box the locals class with am
thing in semiprO ranks. The de
fense is almost air tight. In ouly
two games this year has the
local staff yielded hits aggregat-
ing two figures, and the control
is almost uncanny. Glance over
your daily paper and compare il
with that shown in organized
baseball. But to what avail if the
pitcher goes out and pitches q,
no hit game if his team mates al
SO. have a no hit day at bat:
Game after game the local pitch
ecs have held the opposition to
from three to seven hits only to
lose for the sole reason that his
team mates garnered three or
four. The pitcher is defensive
bird. The batter is offensive.
Good pitching never scored runs.
1t prevents the other fellow from
scoring them. 1t is not sufficient
to keep the opposition from ecOr-
ing runs. Your club must also
score runs and must get on lst>"
to do SO. One of the best means
known of getting on base is
the base hit and base hits with
US are as scarce as white crows.
Time after time, with the
bases full, has the local hitter
gone to bat and struck out, or
knocked bumped back liner IT,

Elk Teeth a Ornaments.

Indian braves decorated themselves
with necklaces made Of claws taken
from the most ferocious animal In
America, the grizzly bear. Only the
squaws wore elk teeth as decorations,
and they used only those from the
animals killed for foed and clothing.
Now the white men are following the
fashion Of the squaws, but are pay
ing a price that tempts the lowest
characters to slaughter and waste the
elk for these really worthless trinkets.
A fuller understanding Of the history
and significance Of the custom of
wearing elk teeth should have an in
fiuence in depreciating the market for
them and thus removing the incen-
tive for this wanton destruction of
our noblest and most valuable game
animal.-Eychange.

~Death Valley on Island Of Java.

California Is not alone In the dis
tinction of having death valley"
On the island Of Java Is an oval
shaped hollow, near the summit Of a
mountain, about 35 feet in depth and
half a mile wide, which, from the
deadly nature Of its atmosphere. is
known as the "Valley Of Death" or
the poison valley" The atmosphere
is loaded with carbonic acid gas, and
though not at once fatal to human
beings, proves so to dogs or fowls.
The valley has seldom been ex.

from there 1t is seen that the surface
Of the ground Is strewn with the
bones Of tigers, pigs, deer and all
kinds Of birds. and also human beings.
