To the Editor of the Observer) In the Issue of the Sept. 1st, I see that Dr. Barry Invites the readers of the Ob server to gug2(st a name for the range of mountains that shed their water in to Catherine creek, the many Eagle streams as well as the MInara, Wallo wa, Imnaha and many smaller streams. I feel a deep Interest in suggesting a name that I think they should be known by as I have known them well onto the half century mark and have lived beneath their shadows all these years, both at Covfo and the Medical oprings. i tie foundation stone i ut) universe is the granite, and no more appropriate name could be given those grand old mountains than that of which they are composed. ; ,V Let the streams retain the name of the American bird, but .the mountains should be known by the name which is as eternal as thie rock they are com post of. ." , - .. ; '' Be quiet old granites and heed no com- plaint, '- .: ' " - ' Your name Is remembered by savage and saint.

In order to handicap the masculine players they were compelled to wear linen skirts, and thejj were also compelled to use their left hands in throwing. These two requirements certainly were handicaps. The girls also had a man as catcher, it having been found that the pitcher. Miss Coralie Peaie, threw balls that no other girl could catch.

(Special) Mana ger Porter of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company is on the war path today as the result of a discovtery that a couple of solicitors have work ed what he calls a game on both the telephone company and the business men who patronized them.
