While temporarily it will keep our school down in numbers it is bringing up girls with better quail fications for the profession they are choosing.

ardent devotee OF all manner OF
sports, including base ball, we are
in receipt of the following self-ex-

Here is one you might use to
illustrate the modesty and char

about his work the following
morning TO some of the boys
when my attention was called to

sion'S legal staff and who is di-
rector Of religious education Of
the Pctworth Baptist Church.
Mr.. Haycraft, while attending
the evening services on the Sun
day that Liscnbec won the 90
game from Boston. noticed new
face i'll the congregation and in
accordance with his usual policy
of making visitors feel at home
he approached the stranger to
welcome him and to introduce
himself.
Upon making inquiry as to
the strangers name he was told
that it was Lisenbee and recog-
nzing the name, inquired as to
what business he was in.
'Lisenbee replied, 4 work for
the Washington base ball club.
"Mr Haycraft then asked him
how the game had resulted that
afternoon and Lisenbec replied,
We won today.
When asked who pitched the
game he replied, L pitched and
when asked the score replied, 90
Mr., Haycraft congratulated him
and suggested that he must have
pitched pretty fine ball to have
'smeared' them to the tune OF 90.
and Lisenbcc replied, oh, | was
pretty lucky

sociatesj himself with a church as

is as modest as Lisenbee showed
himself to be in this instance has
