MORTON TO CLASH
WITH LOCAL TEAM
REDWOOD LOSES TWO GAMES
IN PAST WEEK TO HOUSE OF
DAVIDS AND WANDA. RIVALS
CLASH SUNDAY.

Thursday, August 4th, the local
baseball club met the powerful House
of David aggregation and were de-
feated by 9 to l count. At no time
during the, game was there any dan
ger of the locals scoring after the
first inning in which the one run was
scored. The Davids, about the best
balanced team that has been seen III
action on the local diamond in years,
toyed with the local lads and upon
several occasions showed flashes Of
what could be done had there been
a necessity to do SO.
Before the game started a pepper
game between the members of the
Davids proved to be the most inter-
esting feature of the game. In this
game three of the players showed big
league skill. Soldier Caruso sang
three songs for entertainment and his
marvellous voice was enjoyed by all in
attendance.
Sunday, August 7th, the locals
played the fast Wanda club on the
Wanda diamond and came home with
the short end of 13 to 3 count. Five
Of the regular team were unable to
play Sunday causing quite a handi-
cap to the locals. Poschke and
Lefty" Wilson opposed each other
on the mound.

Winthrop, Minn., Tuesday afternoon.
Mrs. Matson passed away at the
Swedish hospital, Minneapolis, Fri

charge of the Swedish Lutheran
pastor of Winthrop with Rev. Freith-

Possibilities of Rural Home

and work in mutual companionship
and love.
Let those of US who live upon the
farms and love them fight this move
ment with all our power by striving
to improve and beautify the farm
home inside and out, both as a tenn
poral abode and as dwelling place
for the things of the spirit, until it
becomes the most glorious thing in
our nation. With the agricultural de-
preston now existing, with many
forces pressing against the farmer,
there has seldom been a time when
the morale of the farm home has
needed strengthening as now.
By precept and example we can
demonstrate the thought that we are
not living on the farms for a few
years with the idea of going to some
city or town as soon as our circum-
stances will permit, but that we in
tend to make it a permanent place
of abode where our roots will strike
down deep and where we will have q
home that we will be proud to be-
queath to our children and our chill
dren's children. In accordance with
this idea, if this chapter of real
life story, true in every detail, can
aid by showing what can be done by
two people working together upon
what some have seen fit to call the
"Black Prairie" of Minnesota it is
given with . willing heart.
