BOTH GAMES WON

By Antrim Team Against Keene Labor Bay

Labor Day was observed very gen erally as a boiidqr in Antrim and the only attractions of the day were two ball games, one in the morning and the other in tlie afternotm. between tbe Antrims and a team from the e i ^ of Keene, calling tbemselves tbe Mo­dem Wjoodsmen 61 l&neriea. It was -hoped by everybody that a team wonld come to town wbieh wonld make • the bome boys wmkfor everything they got, bnt really from the first inning in tbe momidg it was thonght by many of the onlooicers that the visitors were easy, and so th^r proved to be. Tbe game 14 the forenoon resnlted in a seore of 9 to 1 fw tiie bome boys. Leo Mnlhall and Emest Town were tite battery for the local team, and the visitors nsed two pitchers, yet tfaey' were ontclassed in every way. The witnesses of tbe game became very nneasy, as is always the case with a slow and one sided game.

Everybody tboaght with tbe snrpins of players the Keenes brought with them and the possibility of others eoming, th'e visitors wonld very ma-terially strength^ tfaeir team for the

l^ftemoon game and. give a mneh bet ter exhibition of ball playing than they did in tbe moming. Alas, we were doomed to dissppointment. for tbis game resulted in a 18 to 0 score for the home boys> The putting in tbe box of Woodward of Hancock for the visitors was dead easy for An­trim/ as it showed in their half of the inning wben the local boys piled np seven scores and got all kinds of bits off him; be had to be replaced by a left hand twirler^ who was hit some for scores. Tbe Antrim boys certain­ly bad a day of finding pitchers for hits and also in finding tbe home plate. Albert Thornton and Ernest Town were tbe local battery for tbe aftemoon game.

Fairly good crowds attended botb of these games, and considering tbe one sidedness of botb gsmea, tbe root­ers kept tbeir places fairly well, yet occasionally, tbere was considerable "robbing in" where it appeared to be most effective.

Tbe Reporter is informed tbat.these games elosed tbe ball playing on tjae bome gronnds by tbe Antrim town team for the seaaon. Tbe loeal team has had very good snccess for a strict­ly local team, baving won eleven of the nineteen games pisyed.

The marriage of Uiss Mary E. Bar­rett, of tbis town, and Arthur N. Harriman, of New Bedford, Mas*.. took place at nine o'clock last Sator­day moraing, at tbe Baptist parson­age. Rev. W. J. B. Cannell perform­ing the ceremony. Tbe bride was attended by Miss Bertha Merrill, of Antrim, as m^d of honor, and tbe best man was William Spencer, of New Bedford. Immediately after the ceremony tbe bridal party started by auto for Nashua, wbere a wedding breakfast wss served.

Mr. Harriman spent most of his youth till after reaching his majority, in Antrim, whtee he. attended tfae pub­lic fcbools. He leamed the printer's trade in the office of tbe Antrim Be­porter aod was for a brief time its proprietor. Later be went to New ^dford. wbere fae is a linotype oper-alor, and faas become a prominent la* bor leader in tfaat eity, and inflnential in politics, baving been candidate for Mayor of the city, on tfae Labor ticket at two different elections.

Mr. Harriman's first wife died of t&e fin, leaving three dangfaters.

Miss Barrett is tbe only dang iter of Mrs. Tillie Barrett and has always mads ber bome bere, wb^re she Is popnlar among ber assQ^ates.'

f. B. Kiilkelly. postmaster at WiF-ton. ia setting a feat pace in tbe eon-test between tiie postmasters of New Hampshire and (>>londb for tte sale of Govemment Sayings securities.. In' two days time he haa aold $1500 worth of Treasnzy Savings Certificates and as Wilton haa a popaIati<m. of only abont 1500 he has created a per capita average of $1 in this.dbort pe­riod. We are wotidering how Colora­do postmasters will feel when tiiey hear of this achievement.

Tbere is a lurking notion in Wash­ington that a lot of the Federal aid money for bi^ways is being wasted in many of the stat^ Possibly this impression is partly due to tbe fact that Senators and Bepreaentativea are prevented fi-om giving.their'pfaysical preaence to tfae demonstrations of ef­ficiency made by Federal, State and Distriet inspectors, wbose business it is tb chsSk-up on t ^ work of connty and town highway officials. In any event there is a good deal of the " I want to be shown" sentiment in tbe National Capital. Senator King of Utah, says that the State road organ­izations have received from tbe Gov-em'ment. varioos road building equip­ment and*inotor driven vehicles, valn­ed in excess of $100,000,000. A bill for an additional $75,000,000 of Federal aid money isin coiifefehcebe­tween the two branches of Congress, and before the money ia voted the same Senator would like to have a general investigation of road opera­tions thronghont the United States to determine tbe trath of his claim that the apprpriations made by Congress bave been nsed and expended "in an extravagant and wasteful manner."

It is fair to say that tbe views of Senator^ King do not represent the general 'attitude of official Washing­ton, and be will have plenty of tronble with his resolution, befora be is able to convince his colleagnes from states that have tbe best kind of roads that the work is not being well and cons­cientiously dons.

We believe the piece of road tow ards Hillsboro, wUeh is now being completed, is a Federal road. '

Uany of our to^^nspeople attended the Fair at Bradford last week.

Uiss Ellen Graves,, of Leominster, Uass., is visiting Ur. and Urs. WilTiam Wallaee.

What might have been a serious ac* cident tpok place late last. Suday af­terooon'when an anto driven by Urs. L. J. Parker, of this place, was in collision with the aato~of Frank E. Bais, of,Antrim, on the Joslin bill., A truck and team on the hill obstruct­ed the view of the aato which in tam­ing out strack the Bass ear coming up the hill. It all happened within a very ahort distance and in a very short time; The Bass car was dam­aged coDSiderally in front, while the otber car was not much hart. The only occupant of either car to receive injuries was Uiss Sadie UaeUullen, who was driving the car which was strack'. It was thonght at firat that one arm was- hroken, bnt it was very mucb braised and she was badly shak­en up. Fortonately nothing very se­rious was the resalt. '

The Grange Fair was very success-fulin every way this year; perhaps the exhibit was not as large as last year, bat some good looking vegeta­bles were shown. The arrangement of the cut flowers and potted plants was especially attractive.' Urs. Uan­rice Newton had them in eharge. The push carts were very attractively de­corated and the good things they con­tained were quickly disposed of. The grab cart was a thing of beauty, in, shades of orange, with popples of the same shade trimming itt and the young lady's hat. Alice Durgin had this in chaise.

Urs. Ned Duncklee and Phyllis had the ice cream cart, which was bright with red and green, bells that tinkled musically, and a little monkey perch­ed on top. Ura. Guy Keeser and Urs. Gertrade Ross had the candy cart; the colors were red and white, and they wore crepe paper costumes to niatch. Urs. Harry Brown and Ura. Earl Sheldon had pop com; Ura. John Weston, the vegetables; U n . Gerrard and Urs. Chas. Buraham, the aprons; Grace Taylor, tbe food cart; Ura. Cyras Philbrick, the dolls, and no one guessed the name of the big doll, which was Uean-well, so it was Auctioned.

The evening entertainment was largely attended, and, judging by tbe applause, was greatly enjoyed. A goodly sum will be realized, which is encouraging, as a great deal of work is put into an affair of this sort.

Asphalt Much Used in Building. "Booflng" constltates an important

teanch of a modi broMer fldd of •engineering, known as 'Waterprooflng," in which asphalt faas for tbooaands of yenrs played an Important part. Tbe andent E$7Ptlans were able to pre­serve their mummies In good oaditlon te tiie present day by miapptag them in fsbrle saturated and made 'water-proof and weather resisting with as­phalt. Modem ingenuity has discov. ered no' material better. adapted to waterproofing and preserving fts pres­ent day sll uet tues than asphalt. It Is not sorprising, therefore, that In re­eent years the production of asphalt in large quantities has been rendered possible by reflnlng crude petroleum. Ite use for roofing and waterprooflng bas devdcved rapidly. In many stmc-tores from roof to cellar asphalt plays an important part, flrst as roofing, then as sbeatbing and in«ninting and flnan'y as a waterprooflng membrane for the ondergroand portion.—Ex-efaange.

MAN THE MORE EMOTIOWAL

Mra, Canle Ciiapman Catt Centradicta Opinion Leng^sld as te

Qualitiss of 8«xea.

Urs. Carrie Chapman Catt, presW-dcnt of tbe International Equal Suf. frage aasodation, bas d theory that men are more emotional than women, in lUustration of wbldi she tells the following story, according to tbe New York Son:

"I once visited a smaU village In New England wblch was bordered by a small river, so that farmers'coming into tbe village from dther way had to ford' the stream.

"Tear after year the town meeting debated faying, a bridge over tbe stream, but it was always decided that local finances woold not stand the additldb.il .<traln of the necessary tax. and^tlmt tfae farmers wotild Jnst have to wait until the stream got low In the spring and then ford, a s usual.

*Y)iie year. ihorUy after this annual dedslon, an elderly 'village pauper died. He 'was a' veteran of fhe Civil war, bnt tfae village folk had never paid any attention to blm In bis life. Tfaey had never' tried to find ont what tfaey could do to fielp him to a better way of life nor contributed In any way to his welNbelng. However, as soon as fae died, tfae town began to faave a tender cotisdence about the manner of his burial. They were onwllllng that the man they had neg­lected all hla life should have a pauper bnriaL So they tried to hire a hearse from a nearby town to give him wbat they call a cbristinn buriaL- Not _befng able to hire a bearse, tbey dedded they ought to hare a faearse of their own, and con­sequently tfaey bought one costing several bnndred dollars.

"Tben they said: 'What good Is a hearse 'without horses?* And so they bought horses. And then they said, "Now, that we've a hearse and horses, 'we must have a place to keep thern,' and so bunt a steble and carrinsie bonse for the borses and" the hearse. Altogether the expenditure was ver.r mudi greater tlian would have boen necessary for tfae bridge, and all be­catise ttaey had emotionally decided tfaat tfaey must give what they re­garded as a flne burial for a mnn 'wfaom tbey bad never helped to hap­piness while he was living."

If there are any men present whon Mrs. Catt relates this instance of the emotional qualities of men she always smiles agreeably and adds:

"Although I am qnite convinced that men as a whole are more emotional than women, of course, there are ex-eeptlons." .
