our druggist advised Cardui for my complaint I was so

Good Rooting for Homo Team.
The Gamecocks went down In de?
foal Friday afternoon h< fore tho j
boys from the Bt. Johns' High school I
at Darlington when the two crossed
bats at tin- local baseball park) the
icors being three to one in favor of
the risltora although that score
doea not mark [he relative playing of
the two teams, for the Sumter hoys
were in good farm and outhatted and
ontpltohed their opponents and stole
numerous bases on them.
There was a fa'rly good crowd out
to see the game, but not nearly so
'arge an audit nee of rooters as the
game deserved. The rooting by the
fans present was good to see and was
of a high (dass, but It was not quite
gbli to pull the homo bo>*3 out of the
holo into which they fell. The
game Wag one of the fastest and best
games between high school teams
ever witnessed In Sumter, few er?
rors being made and good fast play?
ing marking the game all the way
through.
The first score v ??s made by the
CJameeocks. This ca, le in .he first
part of the first inning when Heaves,
Ihi tirst man at the bat knocked off a
three base hit and Dullant followed
with a two-socker. This beginning
*!so ended the scoring for Sumter for
nit hough after this several men made
good bits and reached third they were
RdVer able to pass in home before the
third out was registered by the scorer. I
The Darlington boys also played
ttaasy ball. Their scoring came in
OBJ the last half of the fourth Inning'
when three hits were secured off i
i
Haynsworth and Brown at third base
made two errors which gave them
their score. This- was the only chance
they had to score in the game and
the scores wouid probably not have
been made then had It not been for
the errors of the home team.
In the box Haynsworth had slightly
the better of bis opponent. He struck
out eleven men und the opposing team
got fewer hits from him than did his
team from Edwards. Fewer bases
were stolen on him than on the Dar?
lington pitcher, although Edwards
showed some classy form. Edwards
truck out nine men and played a
good game all the way through, get?
ting two hits off his opponent to
help win his own game.
The line-up of the two teams wis
n<* follows:
Darlington. Sumter.
Bailey, C. Heaves.
McKelthan. lb. Durant.
Hill. lb. Thomas
Brlstow, 3b. Brown.

sist in the cotton acreage reduction movement. "The Rock Hill Plan,"
owing to the late start, could not be perfectly organized in every county,
nad where it was organised, some farmers* have, perhaps, been over?
looked.
J. O. ANDERSON, ROCK HILL? S. C.
"The Rock Hill Plan"
v^e agree to reduce our cotton acreage for 1911 as noted below:

Help in tiii* light against the Hears by cutting iid> pledge out ;?nd cir?
