In the 5th. innings Stock was relieved by Harness. Seven in- nings only were played owing to the heat. Boyle made the only run for Exeter. The Exeter team was com- posed of Stock and Boyle, battery; Harness, Hazelton, Abbott, Rivers, C. Harness, 0. Truemner, C. Ford. Children Get Credit The bankers in Kentucky loaned children $75,000 last year with which to buy pure-bred stock for club work. One hundred and twenty- six banks lent this money, and would have furnished more if the boys and girls had needed it. All of this money was used by boys and girls who did not have ready money for the pur- chase of cattle, dairy heifers, pigs, sheep and poultry. The extension division of the College of Agriculture feels that now the bankers are de- finitely interested the elub work for 1919 will far surpass anything which has been accomplished before by the organization.

In every sort of world success There lies a lot of happiness, But this is something that I know It's fun to see the roses grow. There are 'successes other than The sort that brings great wealth to man; Not all the joy or all delight Are horn of Yeats of skill and might, And some who never rise to claim The splendor of undying fame Have found success in other ways And lived their share of happy days. Some find their happiness in gold And some in deeds of conquest bold, Some find it in uncharted seas; Some in the fellowship of trees; Some in the blossoms of the rose Attain the jc,y the rich man knows, And by that road to happiness Achieve the summit of success. Who breaks the ground with spade and hoe Is thrilled to see the roses grow; To him the tender burls of spring Untold delight and gladness bring,. And in the beauty blooming there Heys well repaid for .all his Care Snecess' is not atone ln gold, Sometimesin humble it's told,. --J337 Batter A. "+ nest, Undertaking Funeral Director & Embalmer E.

Items of Interest you overlook in your personal correspondence. It is not necessary to argue the "value" to you of your home newspaper. But we ask this of you: Isn't $1.50 little enough for the TIMES, which gathers together for you all the News of this community? No city daily can do what the TIMES is doing for amici, in this country and neighborhood. City papers cannot give you wits ` desired fulness the news of your locality. It does not tell you what local merchants have to offer you. Local news and happeningsarts told only sufficiently in a Local Newspaper.' What we are concerned about is that you value your weekly • newspaper as an indespensible household luxury. The publisher of an important Canadian daily newspaper has said in his newspaper this.: --r 'The newspaper is about the cheapest thing in the modern world for its value. If nothing else were considered save the usefulness of the Adver- tisements and the' Market Prices, to the average home, a dollar spent in Newspapers must mean the saving of many dollars in the home.
