The locals will have as opponents the
Sandstone team. 1t will be remem-
bered that Askov wound up the sea-

Sandstone boys in a thrilling game
and thereby won the championship

new faces in the local lineup this
year, as some youngsters are being
tried out. There is plenty material

WSHINGIONA
LETTER H
Az "a

WASHINGTON from those
Iup for reelection, there are in these
ldays two main groups of worried poll
Eticianso The first one, by far the
largest, includes those who wish they
knew which OF the presidential bug
gies in sight would develop into sue
cessful band wagons. The second
consists of certain politicians who are
afraid of losing control in their home
states in case certain candidates are
nominated.
, Neither of these bugbears is the
exclusive possession of one party but
the first is hardest on the republicans
and the second is giving the most
bother to some democrats. They all
know that those who give the band
wagon it's first pushes, when momen-
'tum is needed most, will be rewarded
with places near the drivers seat
when the time comes to dish out the
various brands of political delicates-
sen which make the game attractive.
Terrifying nightmares afflict some
democratic bosses, senators and con-
gressmen who fear that the nomina-
ton of AL Smith would turn congress
sional and other seats in their states
over to the republicans next Novem-
ber. There are several such states
and the most prominent example is
that of North Carolina, where Sen
ator Simmons fears damage to his
well-oiled machine in case Of Smiths
nomination and hence is working
against AL for all he is worth.
This would be big year for floods,
predicted Herbert Janvrin Browne,
the long distance weather forecaster,
among his other predictions, and now
the New England flood has gone into
1927 history along with. the vaster
floods in the Mississippi valley.
Not all of Brownies predictions have
come true but he was dead right in
forecasting that this would be heck
of a year insofar as weather was
concerned. Besides the floods there
have been quite a few tornadoes-
my ,tornadoes," as Browne would call
lthem-and in many sections folks are
| still talking about the cold summer
they had. The weather bureau con-
tinues to sneer at Browne, but hard
headed business men and some agri-
Icultural organizations continue to pay
good money for his forecasts.
Occasionally Browne sits himself
down and writes Secretary of Agri-
culture Jardine, charging that the
weather bureau has attempted to
cover up the facts of weather condi
tions predicted by Browne long be-
forehand. He claims, for instance,
that last August was the cOldeSt
August ever recorded and that the
bureau tried to obscure that fact in
its bulletins.

More Truth Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE
THE POINT OF VIEW

I saw a lion in a zoo,
1 heard the noble creature rage
And earnestly endeavored to
Destroy the bars that held his cage.
Poor King of Beasts sadly sighed,
How mean was man to tether you
And bid you evermore abide
Within the purlieus OF a Zoo
"You ought to wander wild and free
Somewhere on Africa's burnin g
strand,
BY right of might you ought to be
A monarch in your native land.
You ought to chase the fleet gazelle
Across the matted forest floor
And when you'd feasted long and well
To wake the jungle with your roar.
"That massive form, that naughty
face
That looks tdisdainfully on men,
Are pitifully out of place
In such q dark and dismal den.
1 wish that could set you free
So you could flee to hill or plain
Where presently you'd come to be
Your splendid glorious self again. F"
The lion lurched against bar,
saw his shoulders heave and sway,
I heard low and grinding jar
And 10 the bar had given way
i called the keeper of the zoo,
Forgetting all the lions wrongs
I shouted in alarm, "Hi, you
Just keep that brute where he
belongs!"
