T H B SUMMARY Town Tonics ALAS! It was midnight oa the Circle, Only a Stutz Was in sight, I wanted to take a joy ride, Before going home that night, It is six o’ clock in Elmira, As I sit in my cell and think, Of all that joy ride has cost me, And I certainly feel on the blink. 28239 Horton is now a lieutenant and all his earthly hopes have been realized. Gunn who sounds more dangerous than he is, works in the stew ard's office. Wagner says that he is a C. P. A. We are rather inclined to think that he is an S. A. F. Gilroy is the Ranking Key sergeant over in South Ex now. Lst us hope be will manage to hold on to the job. What makes these warm days particularly easy for us is when we think h.iw we were spend ing our time exactly one year ago. M anizi and Dunphy both claim the checker championship of the Keformaiore. (it ssems to us that there is no barm in Claim'ng.) Gleason is doing the best be can at the fire hole to giiu a reputation as a food exterminator. So fa”- na see ns to hold the record of the In- ititution. We take b sck what we said about P latt last Saturday. We have been observing him closely last week and ws really don t think he could se cure a position in Max s Busy Bee. The flagpole is once more in good coadilion due to the zeal and effort of Mr. Lubrig’s men. Let us hope that lightniog will now, for awhile at least, keep away from our much sticken flag mast. Emmons, who is our new Librarian, wishes to tell the collegians that it is not bis fault that the Saturday Evening Posts are not arriving on time. So. please have patience and don’t ask foolish questions. OFFICERS’ NOTES Mr, G. E. Updyke and Major Schultz are leaving Monday for Atlantic City to a ttend the convention of the Kashmir Grotto; each one attired in the rainbow colored uniform of a Zouave. Captain Simcoe is enjoying his annual vacation. Mr. Wright intends taking a few days off next week Sieenwein is now trying for his third position, namely, clerk in Store B. If he is as successful there as he has been in the Steward’s office and the Print Shop, Mr. Beckwith may congratulate hinaself. Goldheim^r, one of the real old timers, is finally going to leave us behind. He has been here for quite some time and we are all glad to see him go home after so prolonged a stay Let us hope that good for tune will guide his footsteps and that he will succeed in staying out in God’s free world for good. Some lovely little kiddies paid a visit to our office this week and it made us more home sick than anything else posaiblv could have done. Children, who are without guile and artifice, who look with surprise and innocence at 'he marvel of life, have a strange appeal to the disillusioned or over sophisvicated. Maxfteld, is a man who is certain y dsssrving of praise He is net only an extremely able build n? foreman but he is ihorouebly fami iar with all branches of carpentry as well and his work has always distinguished itself by its masteiful precision and accuracy. Mr. Lubrig will lose in him one of the best men be has ever employed in bis gbop and a man to whom all jobs could be en trusted with a certainty of satisfactory results. We watched the process of coffee roasting one day this week and it is really a complicated and interesting procedure. Mr Higgs who is in charge very kindly explained the whole thing >o ns and we were just in time to see how the cof fee, after having been roasted, is afterwards cleaned by suction. The output is not only used in tois institution but the larger part of it is transported to distant towns Ferrara and .Sor- rentino are two able assistants to Mr. Higgs. EDITOR’S ARMCHAIR Perhaps it it just about time that somebody started a erusadu to rid this world of thsm audliu sentimentality that is a t present holding sway. I mean a thorough system of cleaning up, and airing tho emotional appeal bosh which bolds so tre mendous a position in r<ur a rt, in our literature, and as coaid be naturally expected, in our lives. The continued smirking of young ladies on our magazine covers, the eternal hereof a love story in our theatres and movies, the hopeless stupidity of the average popular story are all symptoms of mental torpiaity and iazinens if no*' worse. You would imagine, that a fter a person nas read three hnndred stories in which the hero seeisingly lost the mistress of bis heart forever, only tore- gain harinthe final chapter, to have and to hold; I say, it would seem reasonable, that after this has happened several hundred times, the thing would begin to cloy, But this is not at all so. The jaded tastes of a nervous overstrung public suffering from too much civiliza 'ion must fiod an outlet for its emo tional hemmorrages and hence the never ending gush of love scenes. Bat this is not the worst of it. This continued sentimenla! slobbery has a retro-active effect which is even more to be de plored. Adolescent boys and girls i nbibe this trash, and pattern their ideals after the puerile and very frequently sensuous and demoral zing characieristics of these tales A g reat deal of talk has been g.eing on recently in regard to mov ing picture censorcoip, Well, it seems to ms that if this censorship is exercised with the intention of doing away with suggestive films and making the production of pornographic pictures,animpos- sibility, then th recent legisla ion in this m atter is certainly to be welcomed. The movie theatre which reacbec more children than almost any o t her medium should not cater an emotional stim ulus which is bound to harm our race. The out raged managers who vociferously and indignant ly try to hide behind the shield of Art. will have a hard time to convince us that when they pro duce the history of a supei concubine they are prompted to this choice merely by their desire to briog Art to the people. CRESENTS TAKE OPENING GAME fROM COLLEGIATES LOCALS The Cresents won out in a free hitting game over the Collegiates 10 9 in the opening contest of the Ci'y League at the Reformatory grounds last Monday evening. The winners found little trouble in getting to Reilly, scoring eight runs in ihe first three inn- iBES. The Local boys, playing an up hill game, reg istered once in the initial stanza, twic^ in the second, three in the third, one in the fourth and another in tne fifth tying it up 8 all. Bresina relieved Reilly on the mound in the third inning and held the winners scoreless up until the seventh when <he Cresent boys got busy and pushed over two more tallies, which put tbs game on ice. A fter the losers scored ones on a passed ball and wi h three men on in their half of the sev enth, H. B.Qpdyke, who was at bat. was hit by a pitched ball This, had Umpire Wittenstein al lowed it, would have forced a run making the score a 10 10 tie. As it was. Me. Updyke again took his turn at bat and 1 ifted tbs ball which Koehler gathered in handily at second ending hostilities, it be ng too dark to continue. Toe Collegiates hi; the ball ba-d, gernering fourteen safe b’ows Walters poled a triple and Comiskey a hopier. For the winners, Romelt, F.ynn and Tnlan ^featured at bat.

It may be said to the Collegiates’ credit however, that they offered none. They took their deftet gamely; took it with a smile as they bad taksa their victories. We bowed down to aaperb pitch ing and the hrilliant sensational playing of ear adversaries. They won, and we lost, and we take off our hats to them. REFORMATORY P layers A.B. R. H.

GAME In the second League game on Thursday, the Collegiates trounced the “ Old Timers, ’ an er- ganization of ex-league and cx college players, 14- 8 The game was an extremely interesting and exciting six inning tffair. The visitors got against the ball hard in the ini iai stanza, scoring seven runs. They added anathe count to this in the fourth. D'lW iog and Walters starred on our sioe. W ittenstein was in the bax for the UcaU. Here’s a good one which somebody dropped in our box, without signing his number. We sas- peet however that Klein is responsible for it.
