Lodge Team Un able to Reach Decision Tn Fine
 Eight-Inning Game

The Moose and Elks last night fought to an eight-inning dogfall, the game being called on account of gathering darkness with the score to 4 Despite a few errors, it was one of the most interesting games of the season and the dead heads as well as the cash custom CTS went home satisfied
 Big Mac MacSpadden went the whole route for the Elks and held the Paps to five hits, one home run by Killewich for the only earn ed run chalked up by the Moose. Lindstrom worked the first four frames for the Moose the Elks scoring all of their four runs off him.
 P. Schmitz Checks Bills
 Pete Schmitz, playing his first game in two weeks, did the rescue stunt in fine shape. He held the Bills to four hits in as many in- nings, not more than one coming in any frame.
 He had a narrow call, however. In the fifth with two away, Liv- ingston drove the apple to the farthest corner of the right field, home run in any mans ball park. But a pesky automobile was parked over there and the ball rolled un- derneath it and into the brush The ground rule held Curley to three bases.
 Erskine then blasted long fly back to the walk in left field, but Brother Bill speared it after a fine run for the third out Orme doubled in the sixth with one out and went to third on an infield error but expired there. Garn doubled in the seventh with one hand down but that was as far as he got.
 The Moose had a chance to score in the sixth on J. Schmitz's walk and Shippley's single, but Jack got ambitious and tried to go to third and Orme threw him out. Fred Schmitz walked in the sev- enth and passed out there. With two out in the eighth Jack was hit by pitched ball and advanced to second when Garn juggled Ship pley's hot grounder, but Mac fan

Animals on Ocean Vovags

Packing wild beast for an ocean

with doors for the provision Of food

Postage Stamps Had to
Be Cut or Torn Apart

In the early days Of postage stamps
no provision was made for separating
the individual stamps and 1t was nec
essary to cut them apart as needed
Steps were soon taken to improve this
condition and system for perforating
stamps was patented by Henry
Archer. Great Britain purchased this
patent and after some improvements
began issuing perforated stamps in
1854.
Within few years most Of the
larger countries had bought machines
or had built them along similar ideas.
Machines for perforating stamps are
built on one of two mechanical prln-
ciples. either operating In a rotary
manner with the perforating pins ar
ranged on the rim OF small wheel,
or In vertical direction with the
pins on bar like the teeth Of comb.
Either type may be built to perforate
single rows Of stamps, or entire sheets.

HOT UNION
PROTEST
Follows Sending of Mira
Printing to 'Rat" Plants

Washington, d. C. (ILNS)-Smoke
filled the air in MIRA Offices early
this week when it became known that
the great printing and litho contracts
to start the blanket code campaign
had gone, in the main, to non-union
companies.
One OF the companies landing a
big contract was the Donnelly con-
Germ in Chicago, perhaps the most
noted union-hating printing house in
America
An immediate result of the affair
was the announcement by Andrew J.
Kennedy, in wire to ILNS, that the
Consolidated Lithographing Company,
Brooklyn, had agreed to sign a union
agreement at once, employing none
but union members. This house is
one OF the lragest litho houses in the
United States.
To ILNS it was admitted that per-
haps the manner of letting the big
contracts had been "a mistake" but
there was no promise of different con-
duct in the future. However, the on
siaught OF printing trade union rep
resentatives and their friends will not
be soon forgotten in MIRA headquar-
ters.

Ends Life Rather Than
Act as Strikebreaker

Hollywood, Cal ,(ILNS)-Norman
Devol, 32-year-old motion picture
cameraman, was badly in need of a
job, but he killed himself rather than
serve as a strikebreaker. He had been
out of work since January
When the big strike at the film
studios was called, managers began
offering him all sorts of inducements
to go to work. For two weeks
lucrative offers poured in on Devol
and he paced the floors almost con-
stantly.
On July 81 he killed himself with

housekeeper few minutes before he
