But it is doubtful whether thoughts of poetry. entred upon many minds, The common topic of light conversa- tion was the heat, just as a short four weeks ago it was the cold, Ideas centered upon the refreshing coolness of ice-cream dishes and soit drinks, confectionary stores benefitting to the extent of a land-office business. Several persons discovered ideal ways of keeping cool, The easiest method was to stretch forth on the cool, green sward, beheath the friend- ly branches of one of the town's many statley maples and in this sweet at- titude of calm repose, let the rest of the world go perspiring by. Those who were more. energetic however, raced down to Lake Ontario to plunge into its cool waters and swim about like porpoises. Farmers of the district found that the only way to keep cool was to get under a broad-rimmed straw hat, seize a hoe with determined grasp and tackle a field of mangels, WHITBY PERSONALS Rev. J. M.

The group of 35 tramped five miles north to a spot where the mosquitoes are extravr- dinarly large and twice as feroci- ous as any other met by the young- ster before. In spite of the pests, it was a real scouty outing in every sense of the word and one that will long he remembered. The scouts journeyed in two groups, the first group hunting out a suitable loca- tion and blazing a trail of scout signs for the remainder to follow, Many outdoor tests 'were passed, making the trip quite useful as well as enjoyable. Two interesting parties of peo- ple visited the school last week. The graduate nurses of the district inspected the plant and a group of Kiwanians from Peterborough were guests of the school one evening for dinner, followed by the usual sight-seeing tour. The two new buildings are pro- gressing rapidly and will be ready in plenty of time for the fall term. Organized baseball is just about over for another season at the school and it has been a great sea- son. In the major league the Pir- ates are leading, having won six games and lost only one. They have one more game to play and it does not matter if they lose or not as they will have the championship for their nearest rivals have lost three games. The remaining four teams are fairly well grouped, The minor leaguers have nine games yet to play and while the Red Sox are on top the other four teams are still very much in the running. A modern campus and athletic field with a quarter mile track will be laid out this summer and groom- ed for the annual track and field championships in September. The new field will be one of the show places of the school and will be located just to the east of the man entrance and driveway facing Con- cession street.

It was a bitter pill for the Orono team to take to be defeated on their own grounds by such a close score. The game was fast with plenty of exciting plays throughout as the close score shows. Hitting was rather heavy, two three baggers, one by Piper and the other by West with two on. Lunn banged out a two bag- ger with two on and Gilfilan also got a two bagger. The battery for Pirates was the two Oshorne bro- thers, "Mike" and "Dutch" with "Mike" doing the hurling. These two boys are making quite a name for themselves as both can play one position just as good as the other. Winters and Lycett for Or- ofo, formed a formidable battery and gave the Pirates plenty of trou- ble.
