Why Pillow is Rightly Regarded as a

Speaking of bowling naturally
brings to mind a mean, low-down,
underhanded trick that was played
on Charlie Wife; last Sunday night.
You know, most of the bowlers in
town would give lot to findsome
dead sure way of trimming up Charlie
Wolfe; they can all do it about once
in blue moon, but they always have
a bunch that they had an awful good
stroke of luck, and as for a sure-fre
method, there wasn't any.
But Sunday evening, gang of
smooth, slick con men snuck up on
Charlie and coaxed him into a sfriend-
| ly little game" He agreed readily
enough, but later on, he was dis
mayed to find that one of the rules of
this friendly little game was that
man had to stand still at the foul
line, and deliver the pill without NOV
ing his feet and just to give a senbl-
ance of fair play to the nefarious pro-
ceeding, they barred John Gibson and
H. P. Axelberg out of the match, the
stationary delivery being regular
stuff for them.
Well, it was a darned = share!
Charlie did his best, and bowled such
scores as 20, u, and sometimes as
high as rs. They finally allowed
that if the ball didn't reach the other
end of the alley, but rolled back to
where he was, he could roll it over
again, and then it was no time at all
before he was bowling 80 and IS.
But the rest of the gang had been
sitting up nights over this shameful
scheme, and they all rolled 100 or
better, A. ]. Axelberg even getting
140 score, which showed how deep
he was in the iniquity. Charlie had
to foot the bill land pirates nearly
woke the dead with their rancous
laughter. Yes, it was "a darned
shame!
Thursday noon there was al
farmers meeting at the Club, attend

the meal. These meetings are en-
gineered periodically by Mr.. v. E.

DU POINT CLUB NOTES

This has been a week of unusual
activity at the Club. Two basket
ball games, one farmers meeting and
dinner, one charity ball and one in
terplant bowling match have been
the main features, and it is estimated
that between 800 and 1000 people have
made use of the Clubs facilities in
one way or another during the week.
The Barksdale Plant bowling team
rolled their ninth match in the inter-
plant tournament last Friday night,
and got real earnest about it. They
didn't quite comeAup to their record
of the previous week, but that was
not to be expected. A record is an
awe-inspiring thing, which commands
reverence, and is not ito be knocked
about promiscuously. The total for
the evenings entertainment was
2846, which is an average of 100, and
good enough to fatten their lead over
the Louviers Plant, their nearest
rival, from a mere Sc pins to 1888.
There are three more matches to
roll, and things are looking encou-
raging once again. Nobody intends
to try to get by on the present mar
gin; because it had a bad blight two
or three weeks ago, and was nursed
back to healthy dimensions only with
great difficulty. The team may rea-
sonably be expected to guard that
margin with their lives, adding to
it from time toat;me, until the. end
of the season; and then We'll see
what's what.
The score for the ninth match, and
the total pin-fall to date, is as fol-

and have proved of great benefit.

The bowling alleys were thorough
ly cleaned, shellacked and polished
last week, and are now in beautiful
shape. A badly bruised fly was seen
!imping along one of the side CUTTERS
shortly after the job was finished
with one foot in a sling: it seems
that he had ventured out on the pol
ished surface without his O'Some-
body's Heels of New Rubber, and of
course slipped, spraining his ankle
quite badly.

The Countess and The
Pitfalls of Translation

Moscow, Sept. 27.-Higher educa-
tion having been the privilege of the
comparatively well-to- do, in Russia
the offices of the American Relief Ad-
ministration here are crowded with
Princesses and an occasional count
ess. For the A. R. A. needed a mum
arous staff of translators and found
them among the educated young wo-
men of the city, many of whom were
adorned with titles.
They did well, for the English gov
ernesses who went out to Russia in
the old days before the war were con-
scientious young women, and worked
hard. But translator often has his
own point, of view as to what is worth
translating, and sometimes also
amusing creep in. One young wo.
man, countess, whose duty it was
to translate the Moscow papers, in
variably added list of the current
theatrical entertainments. Based or
her previous training, this was hel
idea Of real news. One of her notes
recorded that "The Shaver of Sc
vile" would be given in Moscow that
night.

Wooden Shoes and Autonn obIies.

AT first thought there seems to be
no relation between wooden shoes and
automobiles. But one never can tell
these days. Wooden shoes play an
important part In. auto building; in
Iced they probably reduce the cost of
autos by six and three-tenths cents
each-if figured out by an efficiency
expert.
At first the auto companies provided
high rubber boots for the men who did
the work; but they soon found, says
the Scientific American Monthly. that
soap and rubber did not agree, and
that the bill for rubber boots was
quite an item. And when the war
came on. and the price Of rubber
scared. indeed, 1t became quite ap-
palling.
So some bright young man got a lot
OF wooden sabOts-brought from Hol-
land or somewhere for actors-.and
tried them ont. The workmen stuffed
paper tightly In around their feet and
encircled their legs with pieces OF old
slickers and found that the result was
very satisfactory when worn with the
usual apron.
