LEGION MEETS

At the regular meeting OF the Kob'
ert James Swift post of the American
Legion held at the Community Club
rooms Tuesday evening much old
business was disposed of. The most
important subject of the evenings
discussion was ways and means of
raising the posts $3.50. 90 quota to
the American Legion Endowment
Fund, for the care of veterans or
phans. A local committee will be
named within very few days and it
is expected that the campaign to
raise this amount will be launched
about June 16.

PAVING NEARLY FINISHED

Ostrand q Hallet paving contract
ors, have the three mile stretch of
paving east of Sank Centre nearly
completed. With good weather the
cement will be all laid next week.
Work was delayed the first of the
week because of a lack of material.
There has been a rumor about
that the paving was not standing up
to the specifications required by the
Highway Department. This is er-
roneous. The manufacturers of the
cement have given the Minnesota
Highway department good and suf-
ficient bond guaranteeing that the
paving will meet all requirements of
the Highway department.

Keith Van Pool, GAINESVILLE, con-

a term in the state Industrial school

nounced after the boy had waived his
examination and entered a plea OF
guilty to an information charging two
counts of burglary and one of larceny.
Van Pool is only Is years old, and
will be Is in May. This means that

On what the X-ray shows and what
the doctors think depend in part what
disposition will be made of the Babe
for the rest of the playing season. but
it looks as though he will not play
again until 1926. Edward Barrow
business manager of the Yankees,
whose voice has a good deal of weight
in its affairs. said yesterday that he
thought that it would be just as well
for Ruth not to try to play again this
Summer.
From what knowledge 1 have at
present of the big fellows physical
condition" Barrow continued, I'm in
favor of turning him out to pasture
until next year. This appears to be
the most sensible thing to do.
"A man doesn't come back with full
vigor after so long stay in bed as
the Babe had. He got back in the
game too soon. The Yankee club has
been blamed for that. but as a matter
of fact we battled with him to stay
away longer. There's a whole lot of
base ball left in Ruth. His playing
days aren't over by a long shot. He
isn't through or any of that stuff
but my idea is that rest this season
will make him fit and finer for next
year"

NO SURPRISES OCCUR
IN MINOR LEAGUES
BY JOHN b. FOSTER.

NEW YORK, June 29.-Pennant
races in the minor leagues are run
ming true to form. Those radical
variations which had been so COM
mon in many of the races sud
denly vanished. and the leaders con-
tinued to hold their own pretty we'll.
In the American Association the
Louisville club has gained on its
rivals. The Colonels are practically
10 games ahead of their nearest com
petitors. Good pitching and good
managerial direction are largely re-
sponsible for the success of this team.
The fine work which the Kansas City
team has been doing is worthy of
comment. This team has come, ad-
vanced from last place to A berth in
the first division. showing that it has
grit and good base ball in it. The
worst collapse is that of Milwaukee.
If this team comes back, the aSSocia-
tion race will get another stirring up.
Although the New Orleans team has
just about held its own in the South
ern Association, there are indications
that this race will come to a closer
fight before long
Baltimore continues to lead the In
terndtlOnal race, Dut II has lost ground
again. and seems unable to hold the
margin of safety it was able to main
tain in former years. The Toronto
team is tenacious. and will not give
up. If Buffalo would only show the
sticktoitiveness with the material it
has, Baltimore would have a hard
time winning the pennant.
Denver is stretching out a little in
the Western League, where they are
having a row over the presidency.
The opposition to Al Tearney, who
lives in Chicago, finally has crystal
lized in the selection of another presi-
dent by four clubs. 1t is one of those
old-fashioned quarrels, which were
common in days gone by.
Usually such rows do a league good.
Some part of the quarrel is due to
the fact that the owners Of some Of
the clubs did not like the umpires.
That Is old-time stuff, which base ball
seemed to have grown out Of
No club has been able to shake AL
bany out of the lead in the Eastern
League. But If one of its nearest RI
walls is strengthened Albany may have
it's own troubles to stay in front in
July.
San Francisco is finding it harder
to win in the Pacific Coast League.
The season is so long that the Seals
may have to drive yet. The team is on
the market and the players know it.

Cincinnati felt the effects of the rise
of the Pirates and was tobogganed

rank by remaining idle.
The chronic ailment of the Yankees,
dropping a game after winning two,
still persists. For the eleventh time
this season the Hugmen failed to ex-
tend a twosame winning streak by
losing yesterday to the Red Sox, 10 to
5. Boston had lost nine straight.
Detroit held fast to the fourth place
in the standing by annexing a twin
program from Cleveland, 4 to l and

Pine knots make a hot, long-la sting
fire and in some localities are about
the easiest fuel to obtain. The oily
smoke is perhaps the chief objection
to their use.
The thick heavy slabs of bark from
dead pine trees make splendid fuel for
outdoor cooking fires. The glowing
Goals they leave are fine for broiling
or frying over: and for beanhole heat
ing, white pine bark is unsurpassed.
Quantities of this bark may some
times be found alongside large wind
fall pines. Although it may be buried
under several inches of damp moss
or humas, it will burn readily and give
intense heat.
Dry willow is perhaps the best wood
for luncheon fires. 1t is generally
easy to procure along the waters
edge and gives a quick, clean, hot
fire. The blaze from dry willow will
put a fine polish on sooty tea pail
as far up as the liquid contents goes.
This fact should be remembered by
week end campers who strive vainly
to scrape the accumulated SCOT from
their cooking utensils before return
ing to town.

Bone dry poplar is hard to cut, does
not break easily, but makes an excel
lent cooking fire. 1t sputters conSid-
erably when burning and throws a
multitude of tiny sparks that are apt
to burn pin holes in tents or blankets
within it's limited range.
If camp is not to be moved for
few days, green poplar may be cut,
split and exposed to the sun. In a
surprisingly short time it will be dry
enough to burn. especially if mixed
with some dead sticks.
Green birch is a great favorite with
professional woodsmen. Left in the
round, it makes good back logs; and
when split finely, burns we'll enough
for cooking and baking. AS it does
not throw sparks it is safe to use for
the night fire.
All the evergreen conifers burn well
when dry, but they are not favored for
the campfire except as kindling wood.
This because their smoke is so heavy
and pitchy that it blackens whatever
it touches: and because they throw
large sparks to considerable dis
tance.
