It could plainly be seen irom uie beginning of the game that the Bay Minette boys were out-classed, Lyles being knocked out of the box in the first inning. Marshall Carney, who relieved him in the second, fared but little better. Carney occupied the box until the ninth, when he retired in favor of Green, who finished the inning very creditably. The Atmore boys showed more team work and were more efficient with the bludgeou than their opponents, Atmore getting fifteen hits, the Bay Minette pitchers being pounded hard all through the game, while Colley was a puzzle to Bay Minette until the last of the ninth, only two hits being made off of hix delivery up to this time. The Atmore boys played togeth er so uniformly that no special features can be pointed out.

Day in left field accepted two chances and Tidmore in center field two. without errors. Both made phenomenal catches. Atmore held Bay Minette down to six scores until the last of the ninth inning when Atmore let up, it being plain that Bay Minette could not get the required number of runs to win, and four runs were scored, the game ending 22 to 10 in favor of Atmore.

He found an urgent need for an institution of this kind and then set about to discover the means for realizing his ideal home for helpless offspring.

A meeting of the congregation was called and the needs of such a place set forth in eloquent language. The congregation listened in silence and did not seem responsive. The clergyman became more fervid than ever and then pointed out the necessity of furnishing the means for starting the institution. Still there was no response, and then the preacher determined to go straight io the point. So, selecting a particular parishioner, who was wealthy and who happened to be a widower, he exclaimed: "Brother Jones, what will you contribute toward starting this orphan asylum Brother Jones seemed dazed for a moment at this unexpected thrust and then, struggling to his feet, said magnanimously "I'll give two boys and a girl!"
