cause of their stellar per-
Torrance throughout t h e
season, were defeated in the
final game, 11-6. They had
previously been defeated 8-6
in a third game that was

legged bad decisions given by
base umpires.
John Gilmore, ace pitcher
for the YankS, went all the
way for his team and struck
out eight Redskins. Howard

Garden Hints
For August

For August
BY Mrs. Carrie Galloway
The soul Of a child is the
loveliest flower
That grows in the garden of
God;
It's climb is from weakness to
knowledge and power
To the sky from the clay and
the clod.
To beauty and sweetness it
grows under care
Neglected, it's ragged and
wild;
IT'S d plant that is tender
but wondrously rare
The sweet wistful soul of a
child.
Be tender, oh gardner, and
give it it's share
Of moisture, warmth, and of
light;
And let it not lack for thy
painstaking care
To protect it from draught
and from blight.
A glad day will come when
it's bloom shall unfold
1t will seem like an angel has
smiled;
Rejecting it's beauty and
sweetness untold
In the sensitive soul of a
child.
August is the month to
start your compost heap for
Spring use. Look through
your Fall catalogues and or
der your bulbs for Fall plant
ing. Get the weeds out of
the ground before they ma

weed that you let ripen and
spread it's seed means more
work for you next year. Sur
