Many of you have no doubt receiv

going to change our business from a

seem a rash act when we have so
many good customers. But then we
have some that are very doubtful.
Any business firms have these that

tect our goood customers we have de
cided tomakethechrnge and give them

Avoca .", Berlin H. '
The Greens played their second
game of the season with Berlin on
Monday, and we must say it was one
of the best games that has been
played here for many a day. Scores
were as scarce as hen's teeth. Neither
side were able to get across the home
plate until the sixth inning. Berlin
scored first in the sixth with two.
The Greens came right back with
two. In the seventh Berlin managed
to get another across the pan. The
Greens scored four in this inning and
won the game. The game was worth
coming miles to see, as both teams
put up a regular league ball all the
way through. A number of fans
from Berlin were present to see their
pets meet with defeat. The Avoca
team deserve a great deal of credit
for the article of ball they put up.

C, E. Weseott and wire were billed
to start on their trip to Los Angeles,
