Terrific slugging featured the

Sunday, The score 16 to 10.
Morris, pitching fpr Reedville,
was all to the good, and had the
Reedville boys been fully alive to
the fact that "eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty" the mail dr
ier house team would not have
luttered the score card with so
many runs, l-.rrors on both sides
made the game a little ragged.
yet with it all there were those
gripping moments ot wavering
fortunes that always hold the
spectator spell-bound. Reed
ville's infield was working . fine,
although Churchley at second
had not fully recovered the use
of his injured pedal extremities.
A Fan.
Hillshoro is getting one brand
of religion by the aeroplane route
these days- that is to say the no
tices of the meeting are brought
here by a flying machine. The
Apostolic Faith, of Portland, has
sent out an airplane two succes
sive Saturdays, the flyer scatter
ing; literature over the city. Last
Saturday he appeared about 11
.1. 111. and sent down tracts an
nouncing the meeting. He let go
his propaganda a little too late,
and the winds scattered the most
of it over the Garden Tracts,
very few hitting East of North
Range Street. Whether the gods
of the winds favored the people
down that way or thought they
needed the , tracts isn't knowii.
The preachers arrived in an auto
adapted to out-of-door preaching
later in the day, ;
A Henry Ford in the Bettis Auto
Livery Vent on a rampage Sun
day forenoon. In the stillness of
a Sabbath morning, when Henry
wanted to he unmolested in his
devotions, four men met grief
when they tried to crank him for
a trip out in the country. "Hen
ry" was determined and when he
goes "loco" he has an Eastern
Oregon caytise faded. Jim Bettis
tells the story of the quartet who
were put fiors du combat:
We had an order for a little
run out in the country. Emil
Roy first tried his karid at the
machine. He turned it over a
time or two when the Henry
kicked back with the net result
that Emil had his hand badly
bruised with one small bone frac
tured in the hack of it. That nat
urally made us sore and John
Dodge told Emil he should be
ashamed to let a Ford put a big
bird like him oat of business.
John took a fall out of the ma
chine, and after a whirl or two
bing two hones were cracked ie.
his forearm. This just naturally
made me hot in the collar and I
tackled it myself. Henry looked
at me rather meek-like, for I had
given him many tussles and came
out ahead. I primed him good,
took him by the nose with one
hand and whirled the crank with
the other. Henry struck back j
with fervor and the first thing ii
knew my arm hu'nir limply by my j
side with one bone, fractured. It!
was certainly a successful Sun-j
day morning with Henry still bat-,
ting 1000 per cent.
M -chanic Thomas came along
just then and gave us all the
"Hee-haw." Thomas was ouite
gleeful over our discomfiture, and j
remarked, "Why, boys; you just;
naturally don t understand the
nature of the brute. Why I've
bull-dogged and hog-tied ' those
machines every day since Heck
had his eyes open, and my record
in breaking a Henry to ride is
five seconds by my Waterbury
watch. Watch me bnll-dog him
for you." Thomas then cut a pig
eon-wing, spat on his hands,
shook his fist at Henry and
clinched. there was just one
round when the referee held up
Henry's right wheel, proclaiming
him the victor. Thomas had a
bone broken in the right hand.
Dr. Dinsmore set Bettis' f-ac-
tures and Dr. E. n. Smith took j
care of the other three. Both of
the M D.'s. were a long time get
ting the boys fixed up, for they
worked slow from laughter for
each had wrestled with Fords for
lo, these many years, and knew
their natures.
Monday morning Henry threw
the cylinders over the first thing
and sang like a bride-to-be. It
was just a plain case, of Sunday
sulks. ,
August Tews, an authority on
Fords, says that a starter doesn't
cost as much as a doctor's bill,
and Aug. knows, for when he
whispers in Henry's car nothing
on the highway can pass him
just ask August, "By-Juckeys !'
