Black Diamond Game

We suffered our first baseball
defeat of the season at Black Dia-
mond, Wednesday, April ". As
was typical of all athletic events,
this year the game was close, Wash
ON holding Black Diamond to . to
0 in Vashon's favor, until the end
of the seventh inning. The game
was lost on errors Ward pitching
a shut out game while his mates
scored two runs until the seventh
inning when the fatal errors
came. The field was very
soggy and this together with
strong wind made playing very
hard. The fielding of Yoshinura
and the work of the Vashon bat
terry, Ward and Chantler, were the
main features Of the game.

Senior Play a Success

The Senior Glass play Clarence
delighted two large audiences at
the Island Club ON Thursday and
Saturday nights of last week. Tn
der the coaching Of Miss Lavender
the players were developed into a
real cast. Donald Kirkland S
characterization of Clarence, a
stranger projected into the center
of delicate domestic conflict. was
faultless. Constance Beall was an
excellent goyerness, bearing with
poise the suspicion of Jealous
wife, her sense Of duty and her
love for Clarence finally conceded,
resulting in a happy marriage.
Verna Dunbar as Cora acted skill
fully and perfect characterization
the part of silly love smitten
school girl, who was finally taught
the folly Of indiscretion. Hubert
Stem as played by IIilmer Nelson
in his selfish pursuit of Violet
Penny and in his attempt to dis
credit Clarence, Helen Olson as
the second wife of Mr.. Wheeler
acted well the trying part of a dis
counted step-mother. Clifford
Corbin as the tired business man
and head of the household finally
succeeded in getting his son and
daughter TO see things his way and
in proving his loyalty to his wife.
Bobby acted by Clarence Weiss,
who loved to "wear clothes and
who had trouble in staying in
school as well as with Housemaids
caused many a laugh. He looked
good especially in spats and with
a cane. Ruth Petherick as Mrs
Martyr proved a very efficient
secretary altho she made mistake
in one name. Mildred Curtis as
Della the maid and Roswell Johns
as Dinwiddie the Butler proved to
be efficient servants aud laugh
provoking actors, their bird dia-
logue being a fine piece of stage
work. Miss Lavender, their coach
deserves great credit for the class
of this production. We have had
none to surpasS it and when we say
that nothing more could have been
asked We are saying that the play
ing was perfect.
The orchestra and singers who
appeared between the acts came in
for their share of appreciation and
we were proud Of our musical tai
.ent The Manual training depart

Safety Education Week

The week Of May 90 to % has been proclaimed
by Governor Sorlic Safety Education Week. III
the schools, in the homes, in the churches and the
newspapers the value of accident prevention is to
be stressed.
The North Dakota Safety Council, under the di-
rection of Frank Milholan, is sponsoring this
"wcek" 1t is the climax of than year Of
untiring effort on the part of Milhollan and his
cowcrkers Through the councils work, citizens OF
North Dakota are being given clearer insight into
ways and means Of accident prevention. They arc
beginning to realize that the cardinal principle of
accident prevention is one of individual RESPONSE
bility. Too many Of accidents have occurred
just because someone was unsoundly sure that the
'other fellow" would watch out.
BY carrying this campaign into the schools and
churches, the state council is doing good work
The youth Of the land must bear great share Of
the burden of accident prevention. Neglect OF
some of the rules Of safety have been the OF
mishaps in which children have figured. Reempha
sizing of these rules and continued reference tG
them after t..is week has passed should help to re
duce the accident roll.
Some of US may have been too obtusc in rcaliz-
ing the need for our aid in making this state safe
But by advocacy of safety rules through the great
forums of present-day life, there should be re-
awakening # interest in of our most press
his part, and play it sanely.

jealousy

There is nothing more terrible than jealousy.
railway mail clerk in Auburn, WASH, became
jealous of the wife to whom he had been married
for IA years He feigned illness while working one
night, crept home with revolver in his hand, and
finding his wife talking to two and woman
in front of his home shot her SO that she may die
Later it developed that the meeting he had in
truded upon was completely innocent His sus-
picions were utterly unfoundcd The mail clerk
had been led astray by the fantasms Of his jealous
brain.
Yet ordinarily, he was quiet, pcaceablc sensi
bic man. Jealousy can truly be said to have crazet
him, temporarily.
The man who allows himself to- harbor the frs,

drowning yesterday when cable
ferry across the Heart river found
cred with them 10 feet from shore.
By clinging to the boat, however,
they managed to make their way to
shore. Members of the party said
that a man who was ferrying them
across became excited when the boat
was half way across the river and
dropped the rope by which they were
being pulled to shore. Enough waite /
dashed into the boat to sink it and
they we're treated to an icy cold bath.
The party was on the way to the
shack Of Jim Crawford, alleged thief

confined in the Burleigh county Jail.
Armed with search warrant, they
entered his shack and found a guam

have Jagged in their construction
have been devoting their efforts to-
ward completion Of the Memorial
Bridge here.
A total of 40 miles of highways
on which state and federal money
may be expended have been desig-
mated in the county, and of this total
15.4 miles on highway 10 have been
earth graded and 7.5 miles gravel
surfaced, McKinnon said. The re-
naming 22 miles of this highway is
under contract for grading and IL
miles from Wilton south on No. is
also under contract, he said.
He declared that Highway SO from
Wilton to the Kidder county line and
No. Al from Wilton to the Mclean
county line south Of Mercer are the
two most important projects, next to
those already under way, as they
will bring in much outside business
to the city.
