A local city series will open on the McHenry diamond next Sunday when the Indians and Shamrocks tangle to start a three gagm series. There has bq^n considerable speculation from time to'time as to which team was the better of the two. 'i . -H Maybe this series will tell the story. Anyhow, the' team that wins will r!de the crest until another keason rolls around. From the hitters' standpoint, the aeries may look a bit glum. After *11, two of the best pitchers in the county, J06 Jackson and Jim Larkin, will be defending their reputations. There seems to be unusual interest in this series. .Both teamshaye strong supporters. Watch 'era . . Sunday! Question..

Even the silver birch keeps back a little of its gold, to tr.'ice a dainty filigree against the copper of the beech or slow-transforming bronze of oaks. Some trees are in much greater haste and do not even wait to acquire autumn coloring before disrobing. The ash, for instance, may be found one morning with all its leaves discolored, although there was not the slightest sign of tinting In their summer green, says the Times of London. There is, however, considerable variation between individual trees; some ashes turning a lovely yellow before they drop their leaves. The weather makes a difference, too, but in normal sequence the horse chestnut is the first to show completely leafless branches agaip^t the sky. In quick succession it lets its great leaves fall, so th?t in a single night of wind and rain a leafy avenue may become quite bare, the ground below the trees thickly carpeted with red-gold leaves, fingered like discarded, gloves. 0M - SUNDAY AND MONDAY September 27-28 .Abbott and Costello ' mhI Virgin* Bruce fit * "PARDON MY SARONG" -Also, r-- World News - Cartoon. • : jpjd Sports fpESDAY -- Adults 22c ; (1) ' 'Bombay Clipper*' (2) ' 'Not A Ladies Mail?"

Full prosecution of the war effort has increased smoke in industrial areas two to three times over normal, O. W.

"The urribrella of smoke that now hangs over many industrial communities," Mr. Spicer said, "not only contaminates the air and deposits soot on tree foliage, but also reduces ultraviolet radiation necessary for healthy plant life. Destruction of trees by smoke is due partly to scorching of leaves by sulphur owt interfering in the slightest with ! f1117163 °i r dioxide from burn* war contracts, the manufacturers said.
