THREE STRAIGHT FOR THE BRAVES

BOSTON AND PHILADELPHIA BATTLE l\ EXTRA INNING (. VMK IN THIRD OF WORLD’S SERIES CONTESTS PLAYED in BOSTON THIS AFTERNOON.

GAME GOES 12 INNINGS

The third game of the World’s Series played in Boston this afternoon developed into an extra inning affair, each team having scored two runs up to the ninth inning. Bush was the pitching selection of Connie Mack, of the World’s Champion Athletics, while Shang was the Philadelphia catcher. Lefty Tyler, one of Stallings’ dependable pitchers, was on the firing line for the Boston Braves, while Gowdy was his catching selection. Philadelphia was the first to score, putting one run across in the first inning. The American League champions scored another run in the fourth inning. Boston was not to be denied and scored one run in each the second and fourth innings. The Braves won their third straight game in the twelfth inning, when they scored the run needed to win the game, the final score being 5 to 4.

C. E. Tnlkington, superintendent of the State Penal Farm, and Amos Butler, head of the State Board of Charities, have gone to Occoquan, Virginia, to inspect the penal farm there. The men will return to Indiana in time to attend the meeting of the State Board of Charities to he held in Madison next week, A meeting of the board of trustees of the Indiana Penal Farm will be held in Madison at the same time and it is probable that plans for the beginning of work on the farm will be made at that time. James B. Bunten, present county commissioner, who was defeated nt the recent Democratic primary for renomination, is circulating a petition which asks that he he placed on the county ticket, as an independent candidate for commissioner. Mr, Bunten started circulating the petition last Saturday morning. It is said that he already has secured about sixty signatures to the petition. Mr. Bunten was here this morning on his way to Roachdale where he goes to secure signatures. Just when he will file the petition with the county clerk is not known. It is necessary to secure only twenty-five names to a petition to get an independent candidate on the ticket. Mi. and Mrs. Leonard Peck have announced the marriage of their son, Ross Peck, and Miss Stacy Abshirc, of Munoie, which occurred a few weeks ago. The Herald a few weeks ago published a story that Mr. Peck and Miss Ahshire hud been wed, hut at •hat time Mr. and Mrs. Peck could not verify the rumor. Since that time they have received a letter from their son telling of the marriage. Miss Ahshire formerly taught school in Greencastle and has many friends here.

INDIANA WOMEN AND THE CENTENNIAL

The women’s clubs of Indiana have begun their fall and winter meetings. On their programs, in practically every town and city in the State, they have days set aside for a discus, ion of how Indiana shall celebrate her hundredth birthday in 1916. All advocate the proposed State Memorial Library and Museum as a permanent monument marking one hundred years of Hoosier progress in science, art, literature and the ways of life. In November the voters of Indiana will vote on the question of appropriating $2,006,000 for the building of a centennial memorial and the celebration of the great event. Indiana’s clubwomen have a keen appreciation of library values. In their delving for facts hearing on subject- to he discussed at club meetings they like to have books—hooks— books! They want books with wide range of information and varied viewpoints. Hundreds of them use the State Library in their research work and appreciate its service, hut all note the need of more room, more shelves, more books. The state library, in its present crowded condition, can not l>e (nlly effective as a disseminator of knowledge. Perso.ts seeking to use the books in the library have to he jammed into some corner nt some little table. Even then they have to undergo being jostled in order to mn’ ' aisle room for other searcher-. It is while working under such conditions that the Indianian realizes the need of his state for a new' library building. A new library building, such os is proposed for the centenninlj would put Indiana in line with such states as New 5 ork, Wisconsin, Missouri, Virginia, Kansas and oilier commonwealths that have an appreciation of an extensive library service With better accommodations the Indiana State Library would he able to lend books to every resident of the state, the only requirement being that the borrower pay the parcel postage, a trifling sum.
