teries, Trook and Everett for the
Kids; Heckathorn and Stall for
the Huskies. Henry Kuhnehenn
'did some batting and base run
ning that would do credit to a
league ' player. Heckathorn and
George Trook did exceptionally
well. Gip Braezeale, the star
third baseman for the Huskies,
was in the game stronger than
horse-radish. O. Tefft, who is a
hard baiter, failed to get a hit,
but played a good game in the
field. The Huskies put up a good
game, but were outclassed by the
Kids. Ben Mohr covered the
ground around first base in big
league form. J. II. F. Ruhge, who
has never played before, says that
with a little practice he' will make
them all go some; he smoked two
.cigars during the game. The
game finally ended after several
hours of struggle, in a score o
10 to 10 in favor of the Kids.

THE WRONG NUMBER
You didn't look in the Directory before you called
a number the wrong bell was rung and on innocent
subscriber was disturbed. You said, "Central gave me
the wrong number.''
Of course, she did. You called the wrong number
why shouldn't you get it?
Another time you thoughtlessly called a wrong
number. The next moment you remembered that it
was not the one you wanted. You quickly signaled
"Central" and asked for the right number.
Meanwhile, the party of the number you first called
answered when his bell rang. He got no reply. He
angrily excluimed, "My bell rang!" He did not know
you called him and then decided you wanted another
numk:r after "Central" had rung his line.
The Telephone Company received the blame for
your carelessness.
