That differ- ent quarters should be provided for this purpose is evident if the best results are to be obtained, and it is not thought that there will be any difficulty in securing the endorse- ment necessary to provide same. Prof. Carson has charge of the boys training department, and Miss Bessie Campbell, formerly of Min- neapolis, has been secured to look after that of the girls. VILLAGE DADS HELP OUT BASE BALL BOYS An Appropriation of $150 is Made at the Meeting on Saturday Evening. In order to-get the Grand Rapids base ball team properly started off for the season, the village council on Saturday night appropriated $150 for the use of the club. Seventy- five dollars of this will be used to renew the lease on the grounds. This will help the boys get started nicely, and with the patronage of which they are © deserving they should have no trouble in keeping ahead of. the game financially. Dr. F. A, Harrison has been ap- pointed manager for the season, and he promises to keep the club in the front ranks. Cigarette Law is Drastic The Westlake law passed at the last. session of the legislature is now in force and vendors of cigar- ettes or the “makin’s” must pay a license fee of $25 for a two year period for the privilege of handling the pills. The punishment for vio- lation is so severe that it is not thought many will brave breaking it, as was the case with the form- er measure. To sell cigarettes with out a license is punishable by a fine of not less than $50 nor more than $100 for the first offense, with prospects of sixty days in jail for a repetition and mandatory revoca- tion of the license.
