Little Saturday Talk

The young man was DR.. L. L.
Zamenhof, and he was % years of
age. Writing letters to the news

name as Esperanto" That word
was built from the Latin language,
and means lone who hopes"
DR.. Zamenhof hoped the whole
world would adopt his new Ian
guage. He had put it together with
care, and believed 1t would help to
keep the world at peace. People Of
all nations" he thought, will be
able to talk with one another when
they meet. This will mean the
growth of friendship, and 1t ought to
mean the end of war"
Zamenhof's hopes were not full
filled in every way. The World War
broke out in 1914, and for a time
seemed to blast away the dreams of

"As regular reader of your COL

Perhaps there are others who would

The language, Esperanto, was
named in honor of a man who gave
himself a certain "pen name" He
did not expect this honor, but it
came to him after he invented the

Douglas Beats Lodgemen
12-7 in Freak Con-
fest Yesterday

It happens sometimes in baseball,
that there is a game where any
thing can happen. Last night the
Elks baseball squad garnered ID
hits to nine Douglas blows, but
lost the contest, IL to 7.
Bell, South Dakota southpaw who
has signed with the Elks, had tough
luck. A combination of three walks,
three men hit by pitched balls, and
poor fielding support sent him to
the showers in the sixth inning
with Gray coming in to pitch for
him and he, too, having hard luck,
dropping four runs in the eighth
with a walk and a pair of errors
behind him.
Douglas got four runs in the first
inning, Elks got one back in the
third, Douglas raised their tallies
to five in the fourth and then in
the fifth inning the Eiks got a
walk and six hits to get five runs
and place them in the lead, six
to five.
But in the Douglas half of the
sixth, they scored three runs on
two hits, a man hit by pitched ball
and an error.
Elks scored one run in the eighth
frame and Douglas, already ahead
eight to seven, blasted four more
runs in for the final scoring of the
game.
Peterson, Elks shortstop, hit three
for three last night and Ensign
Bob Waldron from the cutter Hal
da, playing in the Elks outfield and
at first base, hit four of six. Nc

Rain Barrels

MY grandma, a very wise old
lady, said the whole thing was
a kind Of parable for pacifists.
Maybe you can figure out what
she meant.
Anyhow, we had a lot Of
storms out in North Dakota
each summer and every so often
the lightning would strike a
farm house and burn it down.
My Uncle Franklin said we
ought to buy some rain barrels
and fill 'em with water and
stand 'em around the house
just in case, but my Uncle Lynn
said mo-" He said that would
just encourage the children to
play with matches and they'd
probably set the house on fire
themselves. And he said my
Uncle Franklin just wanted an
excuse to buy rain barrels any
way. So we didn't buy any rain
barrels and neither did the
neighbors.
Well, that summer the light
ming struck the shack where
the colored people live and
burned it down and then it hit
the Chinese family's place and
ruined it, and next came those
Austrian folks across the road
and it even wiped out their
foundations.
It hit the Czech peoples
house and burned half Of it
land the neighbors wrecked a
lot more when they came in
with axes a-tryin' to help). And
there was a Spanish family
down the road a piece and their
place is burnin' yet.
About that time we saw
another storm a-comin' and the
lightnin' a-playin' all around it
and my Uncle Franklin told my
Uncle Sam: "You dadblamed
idjit, you hustle into town and
get them rain barrels quick.

purpose Of sitting such criticism
as had been directed against
these dispatches. He found
that Mr.. Kluckhohn's honesty
was unquestioned even by his
sharpest critics in the Mexican
government, that his contacts
were excellent, and that criti-
cism Of him was inspired largely
by his zeal in digging up facts.
The Times is sorry to lose a
good reporter in Mexico City.
But it believes that its own loss
is less serious than the loss Of
confidence and Of respect which
the Mexican government incurs
when, after censoring its own
press into state Of helplessness,
it attempts to censor the press
Of a good neighhor.

what she meant.
