The afternoon long looked for
ward to by lewiston Auburn fans
has at last arrived. The Portland
Sox and the LA Outlaws open their
series of games today. The latest
fertilization to the Lewiston pitch
ing staff is in the person of ICY"
Reynolds. who will start the game.
Reynolds is Providence star. With
Davidson and Red" Robinson, the
Outlaws should worry for pitchers.
Although the Easterns lost Sat-
urday. auckland outside Of the sixth
inning, looked like the same old
pitching ace that has pleased Maine
fans by his honest work in past
years.. 1t was his first game of the
season. His fine twirling resulted in
the low score, 80.
Bangor fans will get a taste of
real baseball Wednesday when the
Maine State League opens at Brewer.
Bangor plays Bar Harbor. The
Easterns play p. c. F. on the same
day. This opening will be welcome
to the fans in that vicinity and 1t is
likely that many from this place will
witness games there this season.
BY winning over Strong Saturday,
Jay High claims the schoolboy base
ball championship of Franklin
county or the Western Maine title.
1t was a tough break for Strong,
that team taking it's first licking of
the season.
An eight-town amateur baseball
team may be started in Canton.
This league would include Canton,
Livermore Falls, Pennington, Wales,
Phillips, Wilton, Dixfield and Rum
ford. This circuit would be similar
to the Pine Tree loop now in opera
ton in Oxford and AndroscogGin
counties.

ANNOUNCING
ELOPEMENT

Mrs. Cornelius Beeckmanl
nEAR MRS. BEEcKMAN:
~ should like to know
whether 1t is good form to
announce an elopement which
took place few months ago, as
follows:
Mary Jones
and
john Smith
were married
June 81, 1925
II this form is not correct, I
should appreciate your advis-
ing me Of a good one. 8.
There Is no special etiquette
rule that covers Opponents.
Since this is, Of course, the most
informal kind of marriage, no
formal rule would necessarily
cover it.
The couple could just tell their
close friends, and let it go at that.
And the news would "go" fast
enough I am sure. Or they
could tell someA people whom they
happen to be with, and write to
other friends and relations whom
they wish to have know.
The other way to announce
this kind OF marriage Is the
formal way Of announcing any
marriage, by q formal announce
ment by the parents Of the bride.
This should be engraved. This
IL the form:
Mr.. and Mrs. Brides Parents)
announce the marriage Of their
daughter
Mary
to
Mr.. John Smith
on Monday the twenty-first OF
June
One thousand nine hundred and
twenty-five
at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Il have changed the usual
second line-"have the honor to
announcing announce the
marriage of their daughter"
which perhaps would be bit
better for an informal marriage
announced at such a late date.)
The form you suggest Is too
informal, and would. / think, only
serve to call attention to the in
formality and unconVentionaltty
of the marriage. If the couple
are to send any announcement,
1t should be in formal form"
Mrs. Beeckman will be glad
to answer questions on etiquette
submitted by readers.)

The easiest way for pubic
worker to Get In Solid with the
community is to blame some
existing fad for all the crime
that's lying about loose. Never
by any chance must he blame
the people themselves. Never
must he say:
"Short skirts and sunburned
arms excite Righteousness because
there is RIGHTEOUSNESS In you to
be excited. If you'd learn to
control your own innate vulgar
ity. and think in clean and sane
manner about the human body,
the short skirt wouldn't do you

No, never by any chance will
Important Institutions put the mat
ter thus frankly up to The
People. For 1t is manifest that
The People would feel no warm
gratitude to anyone who thus
parks the blame neatly on their
own necks.
Yet that's exactly where 1t
belongs.
The modern feminine styles are
not responsible for the twentletn
century viciousness.
They do expose more OF the
human body than has been ex-
posed for some years, but there
is nothing innately indecent IN
the human body.

long skirts swept up filth. the
high, sWathing collars weakened
threats. the. laced in waists
brought on countless Ills and
imperiled the life OF the next
generation-the whole abomin-
able ensemble made for weakness
and hysteria.
There was more actual evil In
one dress Of the 1880 period than
there is in whole wardrobe Of
the year 1926.
Moreover, IL suggestive curves
be under indictment, commend us
to the lady Of 1880. The girl Of
1926 at her scantiets is but an
animated lath. Her body. trained
by sports and restrained by diet,
is as neuter in outline as her
brothers. But the padding and
bustles, the corsets and stiffen-
ings Of the belle Of 1880 emphas-
lied her femaleness In q dozen
copious curves.
There is. undoubtedly, much bad
taste and vulgarity displayed by
the overpainted little flapper.
But there has always been bad
taste and vulgarity displayed in
every mode, and the overpainted
cheek of the flapper isn't a patch
on the endless yards and pounds
of dry goods, whalebone and
decorative doodads which made
grandma's costume fit matter for
investigation by the Board OF
Health.
Let's try to be fair for once, old
dears, and acknowledge that the
vice is in the eye Of the beholder
and not in Susy's attire.
Let us by all means wage q
vigorous fight for real modesty.
But let us wage that fight where
the immodesty really exists.
Which is not In a breadth of
knitted goods or q glimpse Of
rosy knees, but in the trash that
you and pack over our ears.
