Create Farm Pond Near New Home
Site
Looking ahead few years to the
pleasures to be had from small at
tractive lake situated at their door,
Paul Emmert and Herman Hilty are
constructing a farm pond on a 4 acre
site one ond one-haf miles south of
town and short distance west from

stones throw of the place where
little Riley creek crosses the LugibilI
road with the overflow from the
lake directed to drain into the stream.
Work has progressed rapidly the

SpOrtsmen Lose Out To Harrod
In Eleventh Inning, 1917 Score

In an eleven-inning slugfest at
Harmon field last Monday night, the
Bluffton Sportsmen lost a thriller
to Harrod by score of 18 to IT.
Trailing by one run when they
came to bat in the last of the ninth
inning, the Bluffton team managed
to knot the count and force the tilt
into extra-innings.
Harrod had taken its ninth-inning
advantage by tallying five runs in
the top half of the frame, after
Bluffton had exploded for five in
the last of the eighth to gain a
lead that appeared good enough to
assure them of victory.
In the extra innings, both teams
went scoreless in the. 10th, then Har-

Allen county singles and doubles
titles went to Blufton netters for
the second consecutive year in the
final round of the county tennis

county title in singles play, his
second in row, by besting Dale
Reiehenbach, also of Button, in
straight sets, 6-3, 7-5, Sd.

HARMON FIELD NOTES

Junior league activity was high
lighted last week when the Pirates

the Buccaneers won three games
while losing but one.
On Monday night the Pirates sur
prised the Giants by spanking them
s to 3. In the other games the Yanks
took it on the chin twice by to 3
and 10 to 7 scores.
Wednesday found the Giants stop
ping the surging Pirates, Is to 8,
while the Giants were topping the
Yanks, 7 to I.
Friday the Giants turned the
trick twice against the Cards, stop
ping them, 6 to 3, and 2 to o. This
win gave the league leaders a full
two-game lead over their nearest

Tn the same evening the Pirates
dumped the Yankees into the cellar
by coping two decisions, Is to 5
and 10 to 5.

Considerable activity at Sports
mems Park has beautified the new
park considerably. A number of men
under the able supervision of Gerald
Clever have completed the second
outdoor oven and given the water
area of the quarry a good clean up.
Wind storms dropped several
small trees into the quarry and
these were removed along with the
usual accumulation of other rubbish.
The quarry is now nearly free from
obstructing branches which kept the
surface debris from draining away
through the overflow into the creek.
A third oven will be started later
this summer and the club is plan
ming an evening mixer for the mem
oership
Lending a helping hand with the
improvement program the past week
were: Gerald Clever, Carl Mumma,
Wilbur Fish, Joe Hermann, Doc
Herring, Chas. Winfrey, Link Hauen-
stein, A. E. Kohl, Merlin Mumma,
Bill Edwards, Ralph Reichenbach,
Floyd Hardwick, C. v. Stonehill, Ed
die Reichenbach, this writer, and AL
bert Hughes from Beaverdam who
supplied a truck.
Fishing has been steady at the
quarry with Robert Stratton, RR /,
landing several channels and Ed
Althauser and brother Bob snagging
Il channels in two nights fishing.
Missed many more they claim.
The party who left his hatchet on
the shelter house table may have
same by contracting Gerald Clever.

Picnic Parties Throng To Allen
County Roadside Parks

| County Roadside Parks
Picnic time appears to have ar
rived. A break in the weather finds
crowds searching the countryside for
quiet, clean and shady spots to
spread the table cloth-a place with
rustic tables and benches-and an
attractive outdoor oven to fry the
hamburgers. A place devoid of flies
and other insects.
The newest addition to Allen
County's roadside parks, now at the
summer peak of popularity, is the
Sportsman's park at the north end
of the Buckeye quarry. If you have
not yet visited this beautiful scenic
park with its rustic tables, shelter
house, city drinking water and other
necessary facilities you have really
missed something.
The second outdoor oven has been
completed and is really a thing of
beauty. Plenty of firewood and neatly
moved grass with clean surroundings
is attracting a crowd of pleasure
seekers daily. Privately controlled,
this park, nevertheless, has all the
fine advantages and many more in
cluding excellent fishing, swimming
and use Of playground equipment for
the kiddies. Plan picnic at this
new park soon.
Other Allen county parks are the
Foust Park on the Dixie near Beaver
dam, known as Park No. 20, Park
No. Ion state route lit south of
Spenceryille known as Devils Back
Bone," Park No. II called deep CUT
on state route 66 north of Spencer
vile, "Brennemans" park No. Ia on
route u. S. 30S west of Elida, park
10 called "Leatherwood" on u. S.
BON west of Conner.

State roadside parks are sprayed
with DDT, 3595 solution, eliminat-
ing the insects that usually ruin a
good picnic. Sportsman's park at the
Buckeye, though not yet sprayed, is
apparently free from flies and mos
quitoes are very few.
