Lexington High School Wins. . J t By a score of 11 to 6 the Lexington high school defeated! Bates burg here last Thursday. At the beginning of the game it looked good for the visitors, but Edwards was a little wild . and the locals soon found him rapping out twelve hits. However, Batesburg played a good game and their fielding, on the tttoq o-anprallv conceded W UUltf ?T uu gvuw. ? ? to be better tnan Lexington. The playing of Jack Hartley at second base and Rabon at short stop was very good. Forfhe locals the playing of Thomas and Boozer was brilliant. In the eighth inning Thomas at short made a one-hand stab that would have done credit to any professional player. Harmon at left field ifiade a beautiful stop in the ninth *inning. But the outstanding feature of the game was the hitting of* Boozer, who got away with two singles, a double and a triple out of five tinu.s to the bat.

Where is the wiseacre whof prophesied last fall that hard times would continue throughout the European war. It may be so in some sections of the country, but evidently not in this immediate section, for automobiles are generally considered $ luxury, and people do not bu^luxuries during hard times.

The newly opened blacksmith shop of Mr. Ike Shealy, along with the flourishing stores of Mr. Hartley and Mr. George, make it possible for any one to get his wants and wishes filled without going further. Having all the warehouses on the rightof-way painted adds greatly tc aimearances. and from the looks -TXT ? ^ of crowds about the depot, it is visited by the majority. And since business is good on all sides, can't see any excuse for saying hard times. ? . ??!-. The Canghman - Kaminer Millinery Department.
