Milion-Kreewater 20, llelli 1.1 A young whirlwind tangoed over the Athena lot last Monday during the progress of the lehll engagement (mm wren the Mountaineer ami the Suburbanites. "Hlata" Wheeler toed a league aphere Into the twister In order, he aald. to "get something on the hall." While the enemy were romping around the clivult In the sec ond and third canloa-when they scored all of their seven run-he sum plained that they mad hint dlaay in their merrv progress, ami offered a cigar to every Weston player who would put out a man. It waa ail in vain. IVrhapa heeler should have "made medicine" like an Indian dictor. lYrhaiw he should have knelt and prayed. Perhapa he should have carried a rabbit's loot In his nor' by nor' eat pocket. He did none of these thing, however, and with a weakened line-up V eaton took the abort end of a seven to two score, while IVio ttahurn'a suburban bunoh clinched the Kat Knd championship. The game was weird, hut hardly fas cinating. Weston made a doxen errors, and another wasn't needed to otinsti tute an unlucky nunilxr. Moat of them came In the aeoond and third Inning, when only two hits netted all of Athe ns' runs, so loose waa W heeler'a in field support. With a smoothly working Intleld he would have won hie game. He had Athrna'a mighty swaiamen biting vainly at hi alow teasers, awl allowed but six scattered hit throughout the game, while Wee ton garnored ten off Mil lok and Tuerck, the Athena twlrlers. Wheeler's alow one, pusjtllng ami peculiar, worked fully aa well a when he won the 1910 championship for Weston. Athena a run were unearned in the second and third, ami he shut out the Subur banite fur the remainder of the mat inee. U Hlomgren and l.ovll each batted liHii percent for Weston, getting thrre hita apiece In three tluiea up, which supplied a modicum of consolation. The IWI5 season la now ended insofar aa W eaton I concerned, a next Sun day's scheduled game with Milton Prwewater l forfeited to that talented and hyphenated aggregation by mutual coosent.

Think of it, girls! You wliuae ahlny now, under the protection of the powder puff, have been turned up in derision at wind ami sun. You who have made surreptitious journeys under the auto muhlle la-robe or the overhanging table-cloth to the place of mystery where reiiosed the little Ural aid to beauty. You who cling with a drown ing grip to the little wad of down and porder with which you daintily cover vour freckle and deny Time' deter mined efforts.
