CATHOLIC F E S T I V A L

T h e eigl~teenth annua l harves t fes- tival was held yes terday in Echo hall, Gagetown, for the purpose of raising funds for the Catlmlie sellÙel of t l la t place. A number of improvements are contempla ted and F a t h e r Crowley hopes to realize a t least $300 from the day's receipts.

Despi te the in tense hea t )f t, he day a large crowd was present, and from a linancial s t andpoin t the festival was a grea t success. T h e wheel of for tune was well patronized, while many tick- ets were sold on a d inner set ~and a d ining room table ratlle. A slot ma- chine was also pressed into service.: Meals were served by the ladies of the church, and the r e f r e s h m e n t s tands did a hust l ing business t h roughou t tile day.

In the evening a dance was held in bhc ball, a t whiel~ at gold r ing contcsl~

- was witnessed. ~lusic was furnished dur ing tlle af ternoon and evening by the Glass family.

Ful ly 300 people were in a t tendam' .e dur ing the af ternoon: in tlle evening the number was considerably in- creased. T h e r e were a number of our ci t izens present in the af ternoon. The absence of all disorderly e(}nduct on b h c p a r t o f the large crowd speaks well for Gagetown and vicinity.

Akron and ~orth Branch Bave BiS. covered ilow It |iappene~ at

the Base Ball lonr.ey.

I t is decidedly amusing to listen to the chi ldish pra t t l e t ha t is sometimes set up in defense o i a defeated base ball t e a m : 115 always comes from towns t h a t wan t the eartt~ and a lot of its fullness, and whenever things do not come the i r way, it doesn ' t take wise men long todiscover t h a t a fraud has been perpet ra ted .

The resul t of the base ball tourney at, Kings ton has occasioned some vig- orous comments from the defeated t o w n s o f AlCrOn and North Branch. Both towns a t t r i b u t e the toss 0f tam game to averse circumstances, in- t r igue and evil-minded umpires. The Akron Argus finds up(m invest igat ion t h a t the only t l f ings t h a t prexented," Akron from winning tile laurels were the mud and a bad umpire. Of course onr boys r a t imren joyed playing ball in six inches of mud, and did not seem to mind it in the least. Since the event is past we don ' t mind tell- ing the secret. We arranged for rain on t l lat pa r t i cu la r £]ay just because we knew it would insure our success. The Argus has fu r ther discovered t ha t Akron pounded Buckley out of tim box. So sorry to hear it! Of course wc did not know. The score card re- cords six shut-outs for Akron, bu t who cares a n y t h i n g about a score card t ha t tells a tale of 13 to 6 ?

Thell the N o r t h Branch "Gazet te! ' comes forward to explain mat.ters, and in t imates t h a t Nor th Branch lost the game by 1:eason of a " sneak" deal to which Cass City and one Slaght, a twir le r from Detroit , were principals. In short, the Gazet te feels sure t h a t Cass City paid good money for her victory. So far as money is concerned our team migh t have been able to bt{y o u t t h e N o r t h Branch aggregation, bu t as a m a t t e r of principle, it pre- ferred to win the ball game m~ meri t . The re is no excuse for this wide- mouthed howl, for up to the seventi~ inning when Cass City circled the bases I'o1:. six sCP ~:gs, .No ['.tJ.l_ [[Fa0.Ch '~fld only three half-earned runs.

I t is the bad thongll t h a t the I)e- t r o i t p i ~ c h e r c o u l d n ' t w i n t ha t game. We believe he made a ga l lan t try, but heeould no~ win out alone. The rest of the team was too busy kicking to play base ball. But we mus t throw the mant le of c h a n t y over the in t imated insult . I t ' s hard to t a k e d e f e a t grace- fully. Every fair minded man be- lieves, however, t lmt our boys won the game on fair and square playing. Come, brother, gel, out in ,God's free sunshine, breathe a few deep drawn breaths, and forget your n igh tmare about N ortl~ Branch 's Water loo a t Kingston.

Come dowlt and get ~'points" on our game wi th the ~Royal T iger Giants '~ on the 10th. Tl len tell us how the Giants lust the game.

OUT FOR A LARK. About t h i r t y of the Cass City young

people hied themselves to P inney ' s re- sort l a s t ~ o n d a y for the purpose of enjoying a picnic in the pre t ty grove which surrounds "Fores t H o m e . " The day was fo r tuna te ly well sui ted to the occasion, and by noon the last s t raggler had arrive~l at, tlle picnic ground. As soon as the well provi- sioned lnnch baskets had been depos- ited in the cottage, wimre a number of the young ladies busied themselves prepar ing dinner , and the horses had been turned loose, the young men s tar ted in to see who could have the most fun and still save his neck for fu tu re reference.

W b a t wi th playing ball and tishing the ball out of the river every Ùteller minute , p i tch ing quoits for a cham- pionship record ~01icll was finally won by I ta r ry P inney and l~oy Crosby; hm-dle racing, high j ump ing and boat- ing t lm af ternoon soon passed. Even the dozen or more horses considered it a day oir and gamboled a b o u t among t l m t r e e s l i k e a Buffalo Bill 's show tu rned loose.

Af te r ea t ing such a hear ty dinner, however, the King found it expedient to rest in his royal hammock which soon pre{ented a p ic ture of content - m e n t and solid Comfort. Bu t since every doc~or's mot to is " P a t i e n t s and Long Suffering, ~' we cannot blame him for remain ing inact ive when hi~ wholesome repast would have made exert ion painful.

W h e n the sun had sunk benea th the wes tern horiz(m and tim katydids were ch i rp ing the i r evening song, the weary picnickers captured the i r horses af ter a merry chase, and s ta r ted for home. Even the bean's t a l k ( b e a n stale:) was whispered in the ears of the corn, and the potatoes! eyes lllled wi th dew drops as the sound of song and l augh te r died away i n the distance. The Imppy day was ended and Cass City again received her own.

MICHIGAN STATE FA|R. The p remium list for the s ta te fair,

which is to be held a t Pon t i ac Sept. 23 to 27; is be ing widely circulated. K. L. Butter t ield, who has tlle P . O . & N. adver t i s ing iield in hand, gave the Chronicle a half dozen copies nf t t{efair anmm~/cemenbs ;whicli m a y be had uPO n applicat ion. O the r copies may be secured by addressin~ the secretary, I. II. Butter i ie ld at, Pontiac.

Prospects for a large en thus ias t i c a t t endance a t the l?0ntiac fair are very reassuring. T h e rai lroads have promised the best of service, and every indicat ion .g ives assurance of a most successful fair.

A t tl~e Monday n igh t session of the village council all the counci lmen were present, except t rus tee Schenck. Af te r the usual pre l iminar ies tlm re- port o£ commissioner Straube, involv- ing several hundred dollars, was pre- sented and accepted. The total re- ceipts for the month of ,lu]y were smnmarized in tills report as follows:

Anot l le r carload of ce- m e n t was ordered. I)r. Deming, our hea l th ollicer, made a few remarks upon the san i ta ry condit ion of tile town.

E n g i n e e r Rogers, represen ta t ive of Riggs & Sherman, civil and consult- ing eng ineers of Toledo, Ohio, again brougl l t before tim co(incil the ques- t ion of a ~drainage and sewerage sys- tem. Mr. Rogers olIered to draw up plans and specifications for both the dra inage and sani tary sewerage for $260. I t will be r emembered t h a t the company proposed some t ime ago to draw up this survey for $355.00.

T h e r e d u e t i n n is due to,. 15he fact t h a t Mr. Rogers is already fami l ia r with ttle general lay of ttle ground in and about Cass City and is able to es- t ima te probable costs more accurate- Iv. His offer was accepted and he be- gan his work of surveying Tuesday morning, in the vicini ty cf the depot which will probably represen~ tim proposed out le t .

5'[. Sher idan is deeply in teres ted in secm'ing a sani tary system of sewer- age. The eess-pools back of the hotel are a cons tan t menace to good hea l th , and sani tary dra inage alone can rem- edy the evil. Mr. Sher idan has liber- ally offered to payS100 toward the paymen t of the c i ty survey provided the system is pu t in th is fall. No del ini te action, f u r t h e r than the drawing up of plans of survey for botll systems, has been taken.

OUR BAND A WINNER.

Tile band boys cer ta in ly deserve favorable ment ion for bile excel lent progress they are m;tking. Every newly organized band lids a sorry t ime ge t t ing on its feet and (mr band is ll(~ excepti()n. Perseverance and good training, however, have made the Cass City band an organizabi(m of which our village may well be proud

The band is made up of a gentle- manly lot of boys who llaVE ever re- sponded willingly wlmn called upon to furnish music. T h e i r many im- promptu serenades have been duly apprecia ted by the peoplenf our town, and i t is wi~lFsatist'acti(m t h a t we note the i r growing efficiency.

R is safe to say that tile band will be in lirst class condi t ion by fair t ime, for the boys are prac t ic ing fa i thful ly twice a week. Dur ing the fair week they will llave an oppor tuni ty to dem- ons t ra te the i r abil i ty, and a t the same t ime earn money for the perfect ing of thei r orga n izatio n.

F r a n k Lenzner deserves g rea t cred- it, for the progress which the band has accomplished under his skillful lead- ership. Mr. Lenzner is eoni ident t ha t the band will be perfect ly compe ten t to furnish first class music a t tim Cass City fair. May our band live long and prosper.

A Heag that throbs, pains aches, or feels heavy, stuf- fy, dull or dizzy, is a poor head to do business with. It irritates die temper, up- sets the stomach, interferes with digestion and wears out~ the brain and nerves. Make the nerves strong, t:l~e brain clear and your liead will be right.

"My hzad we .ld begin to swim and I would ,~row dizzy and so weak and lninlb tll~tt I Would fall to the floor. Siuce usim~ I)r~ Miles' Ncrvinc I can wcuk I0 honr8 it day and feel good. I believe it saved my life and cannot recommend it too highly."

PET ANIFIAL5.

I t has somet imes been argued t h a t the keeping of pet animals is ()ne way r edeve lop tile humane insbincI.S of people in generall L ike o~her prac- tices, however, this one is good only when i15 is not ~bnse(1. as i15 frequent,ly is. When one co|]siders the nttnli)or of miserable l i t t le l)easts yearly trap- pod, captured, and 1)red in cages for tile a m u s e m e n t of mankind, iL seems as i | ' solne bet tor metho(l ~)I' amuse- men t migh t be devised.

Of course, the re are people who make friends a n d compani()ns of their pel;s, and althou,dh nobody can l)e :~t~- solutely cerl:ain about animM i)sychol- ogy, i t may be that, t, lm (h)g, h(wse or bird derives an amouu~ of pleasure from contac t with the superior mind which n l o r e t , l l a n l ' e p a y s ' f s l i c l o s s ()f

rreedoln. In the case of a highly broil dog or a saddle-h()rse it is almost cer- ta in t h a t this is so. But 12lose are in the minor i ty when the. whole number of domest ica ted animals is considered.

In the lirst place ib is cer ta inly cruel ty to take a wihl c rea ture ou~ ()1' i ts na tu ra l e n v i r o n m e n t and place i t in a cage where il~ can have lit,i;le ex- ercise, no na tn ra l companionship, aud o f t e n n o sui table food. I t is ent i re ly possible for people living in a count ry town or small village to ~ame squi rrCs, b i r d s a n d other wild thin~s wiLhouli in t he least in te r fe r ing witl~ the i r freedom, if they choose t o use a l i t t le pat ience. Most wild animMs will come where they are not: a l'raM of being hur t . T h e red squirrel can l)e coaxed be come from h i s h o l e a l id eat corn from the hand of a human being. and birds of all kinds are easily tamed in the same way. One who has once enjoyed the de l igh t of winning t,he confidence of tile wood-foll~ will never again wish _to keep any of t hem in a. cage.

The a n i m a l w h i c l l is bred for ~he purpose of domest icat ion, like t,he lap-dog, the Pers ian cat,, the whit~e mouse, or tile canary, is UStlally in- ferior in in te l l igence to the wild ani- mal, for the very good reason th~l~ i~ does not need as IYiilC]I b r a i n s 15o t)(', fed, pe t ted and put to sleep as %,o get one s l iv ing in the midst of a t h rong of enemies. '±'here Fire two ways, however, in which the keeping (ff tl~ese animals can be made really beneficial to chi ldren and adults; (me is by mak ing companions of them, developing all tim intel l igence IJmy have, and the ottmr is by choosing" pets of a sort whose intel l igence is al- ready considerable. Ol~ildren should be encouraged to be kind to the i r pet, s and to make friends wi th l~hem, and this cannot be d~)ne unless l.]lc, rc is intel l igence on the o~her side. I f the comfort and well-being of the animal is s tudied it, will be good for the. nms- te r as well as the 1)ol;. for a l t ru ism general ly works in thai; way l)ub (.;ll~- d o r w i l l c o m p e l m o s t p c o p l e l o admil t h a t noth ing ~)f ~lle kind is usually done.
