Second place was Won by Lee Evans* grade Jersey, 'Brownie, who produced 75.5 pounds of butterfat. Other cows from this heavy producing Bear Creek herd making more than 70 pounds were Annie, 74.7 pounds anti Spot, 71.0 pounds. w Bossie, another grade Jersey,jOwn ed by Fred Sell, at Riverton, was third high cow for the month with 75.2 pounds of fat.

Sutherland, for uie visitors, had oeen getting ny in good siiape until that time, with only uve hits and one run made on his twirling. At that he had uean lucky, for in the fourth Co quille had three men on, with only one out, and could not score. But in the lucky seventh Sutherland blew up. Richmond, first up, hit through the infield to center. 'Bon ney was safe when Mike Burke jug gled his grounder. Davis took one in the ribs and Zosel got the same treat ment, Pullord being forced in.. That settled Mr. Sutherland. Fourtier, Marshfield heàver, had been sick u.ul was not in uniform, but when Suuierland was yanked, he started in wuh his civilian clothes on. Bill Fortier wouldn’t stand for it, so .thè game was delayed about 20 min utes while the Marshfield players ran around in circles and Fourtier got in to uniform. And all this time three Coquille runners clogged the bases. - In order not to delay the game too long, Lonnie Frye threw one ball to Dey and when he stepped out in favor of Fourtier after the one heave, Man ager Bill Fortier entered a protest that he had to pitch until Dey was put out or reached first. Inasmuch as Co quille won, the protest was not filed. With the resumption of the game, Dey forced Zosel at second, Bonney scoring on the play. With two on and one out Ding Mul ligan picked out one just to his liking and knocked it clear over the hill in right field. Three more runs, or a to tal of five for the inning. “Penny” Studivant hit a hot one to right, went to second on a passed baU, stole third when Frye let a throw get away from him but was caught at the plate by a quick throw from Frye. “Gillie” ended th$ frame by striking out.

That in not one have we seen a real congregation. That not one has a building such as ond would expect to find in a town like Coquille. That in all of them the y .pie were conspicuous by sence. That when the Christian people of any town are divided into so many parts their influence is correspond ingly weakened. That if all the money and effort required to keep these separate churches going were applied to one Community church it would be pos sible to erect a church building that would really reflect the glory of God and to have in it a congregation that would be an inspiration to any minis ter. That the influence of such a church could not help being felt throughout the life of the entire community and it would not be necesiAry to have three revivals going almost simultan eously to stir up a little enthusiasm. That it is useless to say that it can’t be done for there are many places where it is being done through out the United States and Canada. That the difference of opinion are not so great that they can not be ov ercome. A lot was prejudice to begin with and after all we are «11 bound for the same place. That if all the people up and down the Willamette Valley had insisted on traveling into Portland each by his own particular road which for some reason, real or fancied, he considered Lath and Lumber Brice Nosier Wins Honors superior to all other roada, no doubt, in time they would all have reached Portland but there would not now be the broad paved highway that thrir united efforts have made possible— a highway that is of benefit to all the country and a surer, quicker way of reaching their destination. That with all the reverence in the world we think that there must be times when the Creator is terribly disgusted with us mortils and our petty differences O. A. C. Tournament May 29 Walter Paulson, of Coquille, and WallaCS T. Miller, of Arago, will be entered in the fourteenth annual Mil itary tournament at O. A. C. May 29. By means of the tournament the mili tary department each year shows the training it offers and the serious purpose the physically fit college men give to their work in the reserve corps. An air service demonstration di rected by Lieutenant Oakley G. Kelly, America’s premier long-distance fly ing ace, will be an outstanding fea ture of the program. It Will include formation and stuitt flying and a par achute drop. The air demonstration at 1 o’clock will open the tournament A review of the entire cadet corps will follow the air stunts. Both stu dents will be entered in this event. The largest library in the world is the National Library at Paris. The Congressional Library at Washington is second largest. The British Muse um Library in London has the most valuable collection. . like a log. v Coquille’s run in the third was scored by Bonney. Pulford, who made three hits out of four times up, had singled, but was out at second on an infield hit by Bonney. The latter scored when Otto Davis crashed a three bagger into deep center. Two singles ^nd two errors gave Marshfield two runs in the first and two doubles, a single and an error gave them two more in the sixth. Gilbert relieve/! Zosel in the seventh and the visitor« did not get a hit off his delivery. There was a crowd of nearly 400 in attendance, a lot of them being from the Bay. North Bend took Bandon into camp last Sunday—so all three teams are bunched with two wins and one loss. Marshfield has lost three.
