The bill gives local option on the matter. Of course it is possible that the pas- sage of this bill and its signing by the Governor will induce some)pro- motors to start professional basebail here and in other cities of the State, if this and other cities give the per- mission. But such a thing, desired or undesired, it not likely this year. Even it some there will be little change in the of Sunday.

Heinie has uneasy moments when he fears that the first forward leap of the Allied armies wasn't the spring of the watch on the Rhine. It sounds morbid; but we have al- ways wondered what a suicide thinks about while he is waiting for the poison to get busy. Hays calls it *“humanizing” the service, but that is poor consolation for the Democrat who loses his job to a Republican. A news story tells of the domineer- ing woman who sat on a jury and “held it under her thumb.” Sounds like a stunt for a controtionist. 7 THERE Something That Just Makes You Long for New Clothes Herners Blslf}‘aq‘ Are here in all the fresh, new models, they will make your New Suit and Dresses more becoming and more smartly springlike than ever.
