Athena won by a oil to 0 score. A recent remark from Mr. Kits Patrick has gvien the bunch many dire forebodings. "If I were going thru high school," he told hi arithmetic clans while discusang in surance, "I would certainly have my life insured." Whether he fears we may fall down those 6.1 steps some day or contemplates some severe form of chastisement, is a matter of much weight in high school crcles.

Men may fight with staves and slings. But they will have light ened the tax burden, and that is one end sought Let future wars, if wars there be, forgo the ' tools for their own slaughter. If nations are disarmed they will have an even start at the ghastly business. Let men who love argument discuss the good and evil of war. They have all of eternity in which to settle the question. At least wo haven't been "April fooled" by the weather man. Today's brand is delightful, and unites with tho witchery of greening field and budding flower to give new sig nificance to the expression, "Joy of Living."

This action was taken last evening at a big baseball meeting at the Rock, attended by delegations from other towns comprising the Icaguu circuit Cars owned by Mayor Jones and Lyle Webb were placed at the dis posal of Weston fans, eight of whom attended the meeting. In the party were R. L. Reynaud. Kd. L. Wood, I- B. Davis, F. G. Lucas. Kendall Smith, Otis Gould, Mayor Jones and Lyle Webb. The Weston team has received part of its equipment, including some ex cellent bases manufactured by Chas. Schaal of Pendleton. From the play ers who have so far shown up for practice the following tentative line up has been selected by the team manager, Ed. L. Wood: G. Blomgren, catcher; S. Kennard and N. O'Harra. pitchers; R. Smith, first base; O. Gould, second base; R. Beamer, third base; II. O'llnrra, shortstop; H. Johnson, left field; J. Kirkpatrick, center field; K.

"If any woman had all the clothes she wanted, the rest of the women would have to go around in burrels," says a misogynist who writes for the Sugar City (Colo.) Gazette. If yon have objections to bonding the City of Weston for street im provements, the time to voice them is next Wednesday evening ct the council meeting. ahc may be pardoned for indulging community chesty feeling.
