HORSESHOE CLUB COURTS
NOW ARE COMPLETED
Th«* very rainy w eather of the past
two weeks has delayed the form al or­
ganisation of the Springfield Horse­
shoe Club and the games which were
Scheduled to be played.
The work on the courts of the club,
located on Main Street between the
Mountain S tates Rawer company and
the W right & Sons hardw are store,
has been completed by the members
Of the club. The ground has been
leveled and six courts, providing ac­
commodations for 24 players, have
been laid off. Lights above the courts
have been installed to make possible
playing after dark.
P oster and
Kleiser. the owners of the sign boards
In front of the courts, have granted
permission for a gate to t>e cut in the
green lattice work next to the power
company, so that the grounds may be
entered from Main Street.
More than 50 members of the club
h a v e been signed up Richard Proch-
now and William Gerlach, local high
school boys, who have aided in the
founding of the organixation. Officers
will be elected as soon as a meeting of
the m ajority of the members can be
held on the courts. A game was
scheduled with Eugene for last Sun­
day. but was cancelled because of the
rain. It is expected that a num ber of
contests with W illam ette Valley
team s will be held this summer, and
also that a round-robin tournam ent
will be held to decide the club
champions.

EARLY MARRIAGES
And so he has asked m e for my views on early m arriage.
I believe definitely and em phatically in early m arriage. As
soon as a younth has a tta in e d m an ’s e sta te it is tim e for him to
m arry. Aside from the pleasure of sharin g your joys and s o r­
row s with th e one you love, early m arriage h as enabled m any a
young m an to avoid tem p tatio n s th a t he m ight otherw ise find
impossible to overcom e.
F u rth erm o re, early m arriage establishes a high ideal a t a
period of life w hen h ab its are being form ed. Every norm al boy,
when he a tta in s m anhood, has a distinct and em phatic desire for
a hom e, wife and children, along with the duties and responsibili­
ties it involves, e craves th e com panionship of one upon whom
he can show er his affection. He w an ts to be loved in retu rn , and
it is only rig h t th a t these yearnings should be satisfied early in
life.
It is tru e th a t we c an n o t overlook th e financial burden of a
hom e and children as a n im portant, fac to r of the problem . As a
rule, the earn in g capacities of a m an in his tw enties are lim ited,
but the responsibilities th a t come with m arriage often a c t as a
