An Important Event

| It is believed that the meeting
scheduled for Tuesday, September
26th, will be one of the most i'm
portant for its direct bearing upon
the general interests of our par.
|ish, that has been held within its
boundaries IN many a decade, for
it will be in the interest of what
is rapidly growing into one of our
biggest assets, the cattle industry,
which affects our farmers, large
or small, and the secret of its sue
cess on any scale lies in TICK
ERADICATION.
The State Association, which
was organized by some of the best
cattlemen in Louisiana, has been
working hard and fast, with rapid
y growing interest being spread
broadcast, for it is realized that it is
simply q matter of enlightenment,
as it matters not how prejudiced
a community is against cattle dip
ping, just as soon as its benefits
are made clear all opposition is
put aside.
The Federal government is anx-
ious to help not only along educa-
tional lines but in every other
way, while our Police Jury is
more than willing to do all in its
power, and so that our people may
reap every benefit, this big meet
ing referred to above has been
planned and it wont be the fault
of old Natchitoches if it isn't the
biggest success of any eyer pulled
of here.
At this writing the details have
not been arranged, but it is def
nitely known that our new COM
center, the auditorium of
the High School. will be the scene
of the meetings, possibly two, one
morning and one evening, where
the very best speakers will discuss
Tick Eradication from every stand
point and the views of the farmers
will be invited for general discus
sion, and the delegates will be
at a good old fashion
barbecue dinner at Tourist Park,
for which great plans are being
made. There will be delegate
from every ward of this and all
The adjoining parishes, members
If the Police Jurles and all inter
,sted in tho cattle industry are
invited whether delegates or not
All Natchitches is concerned in
laving this meeting a success, as
Tick Eradication is one of the
most important questions of the
|our and we trust that every citi-
en will appreciate this fact and
,end every effort to that end.

CAPACITY THRONGr
AT THIRD CONTEST
BIeacher Gates Closed Early
and Hundreds Are Unable
to Gain Admission,
By the Associa ted Press.

By the Associated Press.
POLO GROUNDS. NEW YORK, Oc-
tober 6.-Though the crowd has been
big at the world series games, with
every seat taken. today's throng being
capacity one. the contests have
been marked by the absence of
the early rushes to the ball
park and today was no exception.
Scarce one thousand spectators were
on hand when gates to the unreserved
upper stands and bleachers were
opened today. and after they had been
seated the early arrivals trickled in
slowly.
The day was warm and clear and a
light breeze from the north waited
away the heavy October haze that has
been bothering the batters as twi-
light came on during the late innings
of play. 1t was cooler than yester-
day and perfect base ball weather.
The gates to the unreserved stands
were closed ar hour before game time
and hundreds were turned away. Only
those Shaving reserved seat tickets were
admitted.
The Yankees took their usual batting
pract1ce with Waite -HOyt appearing in
the lineup. Big George Murray, with
his roundhouse curve, flung them up for
the Yankees to try their batting eyes,
Babe Ruth choked his bat all through
the workout sending the ball continu-
ously to leftfieId, a strange territory
for him to shoot into.
The collegiate pitcher Blume took the
mound for tho Giants while they tried
the ranges Of the field. Biume had a
lot of stun on tho ball, but the Giants
ironed out his curves and smeared his
pitching all over the ball yard.
Casey Stengel, the Giants center
fielder, was still suffering from Charley
horse, pulled in yesterdays game, and
took no part in the practice. He NAV
be out of the game for the remainder
Of the series.
: There were the usual pre-game pre-
liminaries for the ediffcation of tho
crowd-a band concert and buffoon-
cries by Nick Altrock and Al Schacht.
all Of which is part and parcel of a
world series.
After McQuillan had warmed up.
Manager McGraw suddenly called him
to the bench and sent out Deacon
John Scott to warm up. McGraw then
decided to pitch Scott. as he showed
to be in better form.
Manager McGraw said: 'T was GO
ing to start McQuillah, but as he was
not feeling just right, and was NOT
likely to show to the best advantags.
I decided to start Scott"

At the far side Of the grounds he
again was surrounded. this time by
fans from the bleachers. and subjected
to another TRADE. but contrived to
offices in the grounds. where. after con-
sultation with the owners of the con-
testing clubs, announcement was issued
that the entire receipts Of the game
would be turned over to charity.
umpires alone are empowered to de-
eide when 1t is too dark for play to
continue This should be changed and
undoubtedly will be to have the ad-
visory counsel. consisting Of the presi-
dents Of the two big leagues, and the
portant question. The umpires sought
to avoid any chance Of an unsatisfactory
outcome by having any portion Of the
game contested under conditions where
the play, but in their precaution to
prevent this they went to the other ex-
treme and ended hostilities at least
half an hour before 1t was necessary.
George Hildebrand. an American
League arbiter, was the umpire-in-
gave the word that ended the game.
But he was seen to confer with Bill
KLEIN, a National League arbiter, on
the latter's initiative, when the
ninth inning ended and 1t Is assumed
it was decided then that play would
be suspended at the close Of another
round.
Giants Were Benefited.
An incident which left a bad taste
in the mouths Of witnesses was that
when the game was called the Giants,
unquestionably apprised in advance
that this action would be taken, had
their gloves and other DarADherna iia
all gathered and were half way across
the diamond on their way to the
clubhouse before the spectators real
lied what had been done.
The Yankee players. as nonplussed as
the spectators, stood about with quizzi-
cal expressions as their rivals sprinted
off the field.
Regardless of whether the idea for
having the game ended when it did
originated in the active brain Of John
McGraw Of the Giants. whose team ap-
parently would be most benefited by
that action, their advance preparations
to leave the field created a distinctly
unfavorable impression.
If those In charge Of the games well
fare grasp the opportunity to relieve
the arbiters Of a task they should not
be required to execute, and assume 1t
themselves. all will be we'll
