ABBEVILLE TAKES SECOND GAME ond Game Wednesday Afternoon Game Wednesday Afternoon By Ninth Inning Rally Fighting valiantly to make a four run lead hold good from the fourth inning through the ninth, hut fight ing all in vain, the Greenwood Won ders went down to defeat before the Abbeville boys Wednesday after noon on .Rosenberg et al. field by a score of seven to six. The Greenwood boys apparently won the game in the. fourth inning when they tallied four runs on er rors such as one base hit being good for a home run, etc. Some of the Ab beville fans, not familiar with the hidden strength of their local high school team, had left the fiedd when the ninth inning came about. It was in this final inning that Abbeville won the game, making five scores on hits and errors contributed by Greenwood's infield. Stuart, twirler for Greenwood, was good, very good, and it was not his fault that the game was lost. He received very, good support until the ninth when practically his whole in field went up, up, up in the air. The roistering rooters for Abbeville can be given a part of the credit for this game being won by their team. They never let up and when the final chance came to either tie things up, or win a game, they were there with the good to produce such psychologi cal effects on the Greenwood playe?rs that they really went up In the air. Allen Long for Abbeville, off a bit in his hitting, played Ills usual good game at first sack making 18 put outs during the game. Billy pitched a very good game to have worked so much lateJy and with a sore arm. Only four clean hits were made off him, and the rest of the damage was due to bungling errors. Roche actually missed a fly in center a thing he was never known to do before. Attempts are being made to ar_ range a game here next week, but the attendance of the high school games is so small that the high team cannot raise sufficient money to pay a team's expenses to come to Abbe. ville.

The Bluet The Blues'' is a subject which de serves the biggest attention. I mean people should give their biggest at tention to finding a way for getting rid of this detestibie pest. We come in contact with many "blues," and I, in my own condescending manner, I will let you know a few. A "blues" common to school chil dren is the Monday morning "blues." No one ^ias studied. No one knows his lessons, but worse still, five more days before another holiday. This "blues" has an insagadous effect on one, so sleep late Sunday. Another "blues" is the "crazy blues" veryj common among boys. This is caused by his whole desire, hfc love, his sup reme thought, his degenerate fiance, or in plain language his girl gives him the "high foot." He speaks to no one. His heart is sad. He has those "crazy blues." "He can't sleep at night, He can't eat a bite, For the girl he loves "Don't treat him right." Beware girls! treat no boy in such a dogmatic fashion. The next blues on the program is the "broke blues." When a fellow gets this "blues," he is broke, busted and disgusted, and ha can't even leave home for fear he will meet some young lassie, who craves gti"2J2M2M2JSM5ISJ5JSJ5ISI3JSJ515JSJSIS15JSfSISJ3 " GLASSWAR I have jus>t lot of pretty ing of Ice 1 Glasses, Et< need at this Come in an< before it is F.
