FOR years and years, the Phillies of Philadelphia (then known as the “futile Phillies”) have been convenient stepping i stones for the other clubs in the National League. They might have been (and in fact were) likened to doormats, as they were always being stepped on; and it used to be a pretty certain bet that no matter how the other teams finished in the pennant race, the Pitiful Phillies would wind up in the old cellar position. But all that is past now. THOSE days are over. Os course, in this crazy National League scramble there’s no telling where the Phillies will finish—they might finish anywhere from first to last—but the fact remains that the Phils will no longer play carpets for anyone. Nowadays, if you want to trample on the Phillies, you ve got to knock ’em down; and throughout most of the present season that has been a pretty tough taak for the other clubs. H. L. Confer, treasurer of L ke i county, GGary. is here for a day or j two attending to business and visiti ing liis old friend. F. E. France. Mrs. Harry R. Molts. Mr. and Mrs. Noah Fiye, Mrs Helen Blossom and Mrs. L A. Graham attend(d the Blossom reunion in Fort Wayne yesterday. Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Pumphrey were guests of Mr. and Mrs. J. I. Kocher at Hamilton lake over S.in<'..y. H. L. Conter of Gary is i guest ' at the Harry Fritzinger h. me for a | few days. Miss Jose;hine Are :bold, presiI dent of the Kappa Alpha Theta sor- | ority at Indiana University, recelvi ed a telegram today notifying her i th -t the living expenses of the University have been reduced twenty per cent for the coming year. Site will inturn notify all members of her sorority. Dr. and Mrs. J. R. Peterson cf Terra Haute, and Mr. and Mrs. George Schug and children of Dayton, Ohio, visited here an hour or two Sunday en route to Hamilton lake where they will enjoy a week’s outing J mes Beatty visited his family here over the week end. o Bluffton To Realease Attendance Officer Bluffton, Aug. 22—Special—The township trustees, at a meeting held Saturday at the office of County Superintendent Frank E. Day, reached a decision not to appoint an attendance officer for the ensuing school year. This decision will have the effect to release Miss Minerva Scott. Nottingham township, automatically from the position of attendance officer. She has filled the position efficiently and very satisfactorily to the board of education

I- Yessir, the Phillies have ren formed, and there are a number of . reasons for this. First, there is Manager Burt K Shotton, a quiet, tireless worker e and a smart baseball man, who has e done a great job of building a team o in Philadelphia without a lot of !- what it takes to build a winning a team. r Then, there is the batting power e shown by the two big guns of the s Phillies’ attack—Hurst and Klein, i- These two are featuring a two-man : attack as deadly as any in the game. S taking rank with such historic slugs ging duos as Jackson and Felsch e of the old White Sox, Crawford and s Cobb of the Tigers, and the most - famous of modern pairs. Ruth and e Gehrig of the Yankees’ Murderer’s o Row. Hurst and Klein are a regular - two-ringed batting circus, a couple o of fence-busting willow wielders t who cause every enemy moundsman s to quake with apprehension. Both e are up among the leaders in home run hitting, in runs scored, in runs , and r.nhool patrons for several i he decision not to employ an ' attendance officer resulted from provisions contained in a new law ‘ -Ticte.l by the special session if the legislature. This law makes it optional with the lioard of edu- ■ a ion whether or not an attend- ' ante officer shall be employed. — o Persons Who Knew Lincoln Is Sought Fort Wayne. 1 d., Aug. 22 (UP) —Who is the Oi-tnt erson in Indiana who he rd. .-'.w r knew Lincoln?

It weighed about eight .' pounds. This is the first time one has 3 been found in the county for many years. No one saw it fall. It is t on display at the Shell filling sta- - tion in Magley.

fca n . . ■ h — J batted in. in the number of hits and in the batting race. Hurst, the Phils' first baseman. is having the greatest year of his career. Ever since Manager Shotton brought him to Baker Bowl from Syracuse. Don has batted well over the .300 mark, but this season he has been hitting much better than ever before. Hurst began his career in the minors as a pitcher, but because of his natural batting skill he soon devoted his time to the outfield, where he attracted so much notice that he was given a trial with the Cardinals. This was back in 1925, and the Cards then sent him to Fort Smith. In 1926 he was shifted to Syracuse, where Shotton converted him into a first baseman. Joining the Phillies in 1928, Hurst started off with a bang by knocking out a home run with the bases filled in the first game of the season. Now. four years later, he stands out as one of the most formidable batsmen in either league. Copyright I*3l. Kin< Features Syndicate. loa NEW GERMAN LAW INVOKE!)

The best time to insure comfort and economy in heating your home, is when the house is built, of course. But when health and happiness are at stake six months or so year after year, it pays to revise your present heating system or install a new one if necessary.
