And the community is ,so much. the poorer by his death, at the compara- tively early age of 45 Years. • Mr. Porterfield, who has been a resident of Brandon 'v'ttpwards of 25 years, came from Wingham, Ont., and entered the mail service here, In course of time he ava.s promoted to the position of assistant postmaster, which duties he had -for x6 years ef- ficiently discharged.

The Oddfellows, Knights of Pythias, the mail service, postal staff and church officials assembled to honer the mem- ory of their dead brother and co- worker.

Land became so valuable that it was found uecessary to devise some game with ,the poptila.rity and similarity to, baseball that could be played ia a mach smaller space. Baseball was so popular in the sum- mer months that Indoor Ball fashiOn- ed after the "Hard Ball" game but played with a larger and softer ball was devised for indoor sperts for the winter. Naturally the indoor playing space was limited even in clubs and gymnasiums so the game rules and playing ground was adopted to suit. the space. 'Indoor Ball was a lively game and it needed little imagination to see this game transferred to the outdoor play ganunds and smaller parks where it became known as Soft Ball. The war gave the game a great im- petus as the only equipment required is a ball and bat and ,amateur players who would hesitate to take a hand in hard ball find soft amusing, entertain- ing and a splendid exercise. . Since the war Soft Ball has swept like a cyclone throughout all the big cities of Canada and the States. In Toronto public achobls there are some four hundred teams playing in or- ganized leagues. The President of Association handling these games is a former welt known Wingham boy, Earl. John. But aot only among schools has the game progressed, Fac- tories, Banks, Retailers, Wholesalers and men of every walk of life have found the game of Soft Ball to cm - rain a great deal of fun -either to watch or in which to take part. • Wingham Not'Behlad Winghaan's first soft ball league was formed this spring with five lo- cal teams taking 'part, namely: The Western Foundry, Lloyds & Gurneys. The Clerks, Fry & Blackhall, Gunn San Olas and the Lions. Several games have been played and many fans declare these games to be the most enjoyable, amusing and enter- taining sport witnessed in many years, Naturally many novices at the game tend to make some amusing mistakes but- the teams, are developing and in the latter games have shown good form. -• , . The next game takes place at 6.30 p. m. Friday June 13th, between the Clerks and. the Fry-Gum-01as. These ,two teams have not rnet before and both are anxious to win. Regular fans predict a lively game and expect the winner will fight a hard battle- for the 'laurels. There is Ito achhission. at these games. The hat is passed for a loose collection which goes.to support the hard and saft. ball organizations. People' of Wingham and surround- ings, whit have not been witnessing her soft ballagames will find a pleas- ant hours recaeation by attending. This 'is wholesome sport among our own home boys". Let us give it our hearty attapart.' • A Subscriber.

Mahoney,' London Ont, BASEBALL NOTES Huron League June 4th., Goderich 8, 'Wingham 4, Juae 6th., Goderich '9, Wingham 6, Last week Wingham considerably distanced herself from precedent, Losing tsyo games in succession, by almost overwhelming odds she per- petrated a get -a -way which if net ex- actly humiliating, was exceedingly distressing. • Over thes milk so copiously spilt in her first two games of the season, however, we refuse to cry; perhaps our grief lies too deep- for tears. We think of the hackneyed phrase "de- feated but not disgraced", and we ap- ply it resolutely to Our remodelled team It must indeed be remembered that we started this season engagements under a severe handicap,—a handicap which we hepe ancl believe ere the season closes we will find ourselves exonerated .from submitting toaspr permitting. We refer to the, handicap which the including of so many fresh- men in this years team involved. In. our team, as now constituted there are a number of rather youth- ful players. These must be alloted time to collect their spurs. • That these boys can collect the aforesaid we have no reason to doubt and from what we -have seen of them, we predict they will take the precau- tion, when collecting to see to it that the, only spurs worthy of being gath- ered are those with gilt -edges, and abundantly belled; this variety all of the boys are going to possess them- selves` of most immediately. Indeed, ere the season is much further advan- ced we have every confidence in our young colts' performing like veter- ans. They have speed, courage, pep, ,endurance; and above all the "will to win" they will arrive; most assured- ly they will arrive. Ask them if they are discouraged, dismayed or down- aearted by their recent reverses, and yoii will get a reply verexnently negaa tive. These boys, we tell yea have placed a most determined full stop against the figure two in their loss column, and with beautiful, and touch- ing confidence predict the rapid rising of mest predgious figures in the oth- er column. We have faith in the faith which is in • them, and • join in their shout "Wingham must win." Town League Since our last. report two games on- ly, have been staged in our town lea- gue series. On the 5th, Lloyds and Gurneys and the Fry-Gunn-olas en- gaged in a desperate fight fqr supre-•- rnacy in a soft -ball encounter. Both earns on this occasion gave a wonder- fullY snappy exposition of soft -ball as it should be played. Lloyds and Gurneys emerged victorious by the narrow margin of one run; the score being si to so in their favor. On 'Monday the 9th., in a hard -ball engagement the lusty Lions easily de- feated the Independents so to 6. The Independents were minus a couple of their crack players; their Pitcher was decidedly off color, and most of the other players played listlessly. Gordon Cruickshanks who replaced Johnston pitched fairly- good ball, and managed to hold the Lions, who were its a romping mood to two more runs. Games for this week -end, and next weeks beginning will be duly announ- ced per bulletin. r, Died in. Detroit .
