HURLEY DROPPED SUNDAYS
GAME TO IRONWOOD
Visitors Stage a Comeback and With
Former Association Pitcher Win
by Score of 8 to 4.

IronwOod's baseball team staged a
comeback and defeated Hurley last
Sunday by the score of 8 to before
an exceptionally large crowd.
With four new players the visitors
presented the best lineup they have
had this season. Foster, former st.
Paul Association player, was all to
the good as a pitcher and had the
local sluggers baffled. Three hits
was all that Hurley got, Reible,
Hoffman and Pufall each getting
one.
Ross, first man up for the visitors,
hit the first ball pitched for clean
one over second base. Two more
hits and a sacrifice fly gave Iron
wood two scores.
Hurley took the lead by registering
three times in the first inning, one
Of which was earned when Reible
lined one out. The other two
crossed the pan when Kanipes in
right field dropped long fly. When
Ironwood failed to score in the
second inning and Hurley put one
more across some of the Ironwood
fans got the blues, their faces be-
came long and they had visions of
another trouncing. But when the
score was tied in the fourth their
hopes were revived and in the fifth
Ironwood took the lead and held it
to the finish. A row of goose eggs
was Hurley's lot from the second on.
Ironwood, in addition to outhitting
us, played good ball,while Hurley
was slightly off color. Leo Hunt
had a bad day, dropping two throws
to second which otherwise would
have been putouts. Clifford and
Baerwald in the field each had an
error.
Hoffman on the mound for Hurley
was hit the hardest so far this
season, the visitors getting IL hits
one of them home run.
Following is the tabulated score:

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
BY S. w. STRAUS
President Of American Society for Thrift

Vacation time is here, and for the
next two or three months the ques-
ton of how best to spend this period
of rest and recreation win engross
the attention Of millions of people
throughout the country.
In the days of our forefathers,
vacations were of small consequence
and were looked upon as a form of
indulgence that could be enjoyed
only by the chosen few. Time spent
in absolute idleness and money
utilized in mere pleasure seeking
were frowned upon generally by
serious minded persons who regard
ed such experiences as unjustifiable
examples of idleness and waste.
But viewpoints change with pro-
gress. We are living more
scientifically and with broader vision
in such matters now than was the
case fifty years ago.
The vacation, if rightfully made
use Of is form of thrift thoroughly
in keeping with the rightful
standards of current life But to
come within the scope of this defini-
ton, ones vacation must be spent
either in complete rest or in time
given to physical and mental up
building. Travel, if kept within
the bounds of ones finances, is a
splendid type of vacation because it
gives a change of environment, gets
the mind away from the usual
routine and broadens ones educa-
tional equipment. On the other
hand, the man who takes his every
day problems with him and keeps his
mind still riveted on the questions
that are before him during the entire
year cannot gain much benefit from
such vacation.
Ones fitness for work throughout
the year depends to some extent up
on choosing the right kind of vaca-

One Of the victims of fashions on
this continent is the egret-our own
American bird of beautiful white
plumage, called the "aigrette" in the

ties that have been practlced on the
egret In getting the "aigrette" into the

now, thanks to Uncle Sam and the
