Lattimore Wins Over Piedmont 6 to 4 Lattimore, N. tt a very hard fought eante Lattimore win-! over Piedmont this afternoon by score 6 4. Although the weather was unfav orable, both teams exhibited class baseball. Gold, pitching for the visi tors was always a mystery to the Lattinvorians, who only pot three hits. While champion for the locals I showed pood form, he was hit timely. With the exception of -a few costly hobbles Piedmont had Lattimore out classed. For Lattimore, H:\rrill and Mc Swain did the hitting, McSwain luckily pot a homer. For Piedmont, Hord, Gold and J. Lee did the slug-j ging, and Hord’s catch in center with J. Lee’s infielding was the out standing events.

Evefytime. they have visited us I have given the fact pub licity through my column. Rut it looks like the way the type-setter has been setting up my reports of these visits has not been exactly right, and I must say that I have been misquoted. But to make a long story longer— some of my own kinfolks came t:> roe us last week, and my wife has re quested me to give their visit the seme publicity that her kinfolks en joyed. Now I'm sure I am in trouble If I don’t do as she says I don’t know what will happen, and I do want to live on with her so bad. I am afraid that my kinfolks won't understand just exactly my method of describing a visit where the said visit brings us so much joy, and will not love me so effercescmgly in the future. But I hive my instruc tions, and I know what they mean. They came in 2 Fords and 1 wast on. There was Uncle Jake and his family, and Uncle Jule and his fam ily and several others. The wagon crowd came a little top late. The mule ate up a few rose bushes while he was perambulating around in our back yard—the third day. My kinfolks were just about like my wife’s kinfolks except mine seem ed to like ice mighty well. They found that we had ice in the refrig* erato'r and they ate it all through the day. They were very fond of cheese and salmon. Uncle .Tule slept with all his clothes on but his shoe*. He got up every morning about 4:30. We never did learn what for. Uncle Jake was a Inie sleeper. He works on halves at home. Uncle Jule owns his land. The children were n ee little chil dren (when they were asleep), and were taken away completely with the hot water spigots in the bathroom. The Rudd heater stayed red hot the whole time they were here. At least that’s what my wife says. My wife says that our electric bills were no larger than they have been heretofore— as my kinfolks didn’t know how to turn on the sw.tches. They suffered a great deal for want of water. They couldn't understand why we didn’t have a dip per and a well. They couldn’t drink city water at all. My wife says that my folks spent 3 hours and 15 cents every day while they were here in the 10 cent stores down town. My wife is having the Poor done over in front of the sit ing room fire place.'She says Brown Mule tobacco juice won’t wrash off. Uncle Jule wanted to pay for the goblet that little Willie threw at lit tle Jimmie, but my wife, wouldn’t let him. They liked maple syrup. I was glad they ate those 2 cans; we had saved them long enough. My wife bought 2 pounds of but ter and 4 dozen eggs and engaged a ham front Aunt Sallie. Sammie pull ed the china closet over on him, hut unfortunately he escaped serious in jury, but 1 told my wife that it was time those wedding present were either busted up or used. My wife says that my folks couldn’t understand why there was so much passing. They stood at the door or windows nearly all the time. Uncle Jule was offered one of ray nighf shirts to sleep in. He said he had not quite turned to a woman yet and therefore didn’t wear them gown s My wife never got dowr. town the whole 3 days my kinfolks were here. She missed everything from the U. D. C. meeting to the Mush Fesival. ilut they finally went homo, she says. When Washington spoke of entang ling alliances, he was thinkinw of promises to be redeemed—not of;pie to be divided. Maybe Europeans cuss America just to fool their creditors until th?y can get passports.
