umpires who ever graced this mans league.
 When he hoped out of baseball Into the commercial ranks, the national pastime was robbed of one of its most quaint figures. And. though Scotty may not know 1t, his decision to give up base- ball robbed him of sure chance in tho majors. If he hadn't given up the game, he would have been on e major league staff. If he comes back to the game of his first love, its just a question of time until he will be there any way.
 Scotty Is one man who can command the respect of the play CTS and at the same time kid 'em along; he puts pep in his work and this, added to his personality, makes him solid with the fans. Seems like there has been some thing missing from Southern league baseball for the past few years-and l believe it's Scotty Chestnut.

 Unless Young Stribling falls down and breaks an arm, or slips up and breaks a contract Bir- mingham Is to see the greatest f1stic card she has ever wit messed next Monday night, when the Macon Marvel and the Bir- mingham Biffer go to it.

Birmingham has been clam bring for the Boorde-Stribling bout for over year now, and Is all het up over the announce ment this pair would mix mat ters.
 Tommy Thompkins. the fight impressario at the club, tells me that Stribling is heavier than when he appeared in Birmingham before. The added weight hasn't slowed up his footwork a bit, however, and the we'll known fur Is surely going to fly when Fe- rocious Freddie and his old rival meet in . local ring.

It behooves US to work for good

rather than in any way weaken the
present legislative ticket of the
county which served us the last year,
I would make the appeal that we
work in unison to re-elect these three
tried and efficient members for an
other term.
Let harmony prevail and success
is assured. Let our good state main
tain its present administration of
executive affairs, as progressive citi-
zens should in no-wise allow per-
sonal ambition to obstruct in any

the fruit which is very plentiful out

next morning and arrive at Kam-

Then l have two nights and day
at home.
1t is very rough country with
wonderful scenery. We hav con-
siderable trouble with boulders slid
ing down from the mountain sides
onto the track but always manage
to stop before striking them so far.
This is the place you should come
for hunting big game. The last trip
to Jasper we loaded six impuntin

and one pair of caribou horns, the
largest that has ever been taken out

also shot three grizzly and two

Pembina Loses
To Cavalier

3isssON s0aCuIOayS rOCUOp6T Z1SCs L0e
Pembina high school foot ball team
jounreyed to Cavalier, where they
played the high school pig skin push
ers Of that place. Although Pembina
was beaten 1910, the score did not
indicate the closeness Of the game.
Neither side was able to score dur
ing the FIRST quarter due to the in
ability Of each to pierce the oppos-
ing lines for contestant gains. Cava-
lier took the ball soon after the be-
ginning of the second quarter and
advanced it to within Pembina's 20
yard Line where the Pembina
line held on line plays. However
for fourth down Cavalier completed
forward pass which netted them. a
touth down. 1bllowing this Pembina
took the ball. from kickoff and adj
vanced it steadily by forward passes
and line smashes of to within one
foot of Cavaliers goal line where
"tima up" robbed them of al
touchdown. Pembina came back
strong in the second half, advancing
the ball deep into Cavaliers territory
where an attempted kick formation
lost the ball for Pembina, due to Al
high. pass from, center to fullback.
Cavalier recovered and after several
end runs by O'Keefe succeeded in
scoring another touchdown. Goose
alaw, Pembina's fullback was forced
out of the game soon after the be-
ginning of the third quarter sustain
ing badly wrenched ankle while
running interference. This weaken
ed Penibina's passing game consid-
erably, which up to this time had
been effective.
The fourth quarter produced one
more touchdown for Cavalier, Penn
bina being on the defence most Of
the time. Cavalier was unable to
make good gains through the Penn
bina line while on the contrary Penn
bina gained most ground due to the
smashing Of Davis and Muir. Caya-
lier's pass game was good. O'Keefe
and Thomson shone best for Cavalier
while Maier and Captain Defoe in
the bachield and Shannon and Chris
tianson in the line, played excellent
foot ball for Pembina.
The local squad is working hard
this week in anticipation of their
game with Drayton on the local
grid-iron Saturday the 28th, at two
p. m. Pembina was decisively beat
en- by Drayton early in the season
at Drayton, and since that time the
local boys have been working with
a view to avenge that defeat. Cava-
lier whipped Drayton 47-13 few
weeks back while Pembina lost to
Cavalier 1870. Judging from COM
parative scores the game Saturday
should be a real battle. We abso-
lutely cannot allow .Drayton to win
Saturday. Come out to the game
and by your presence and cheering
instill fight or pep into the boys.
There will be plenty Of excitment
in such acts, as "Pile Driving" Mar
tin Hitting the Line, Capt. Defoe's
Taelklng and .Pinning, Shannon and
Rene, "The Fighing Tackles" and
every man on the team contributing
his part. The business men have
kindly consented to close their places
of business at o'clock which will
enable all to attend. For this the
school wishes to thank the business
men. WILL YOU BE THERE?
Sure! Help beat Drayton next Sat
urday.
