Miss Anna Belle McCrory has been elected as a teacher at Crisp Institute. The engaging (of) another teacher became necessary owing to the increase of pupils, and the school is quite fortunate in having her to assist in this work. Miss Annabel McCrory gave a most delightful entertainment on Thursday afternoon. Quite an entertaining contest entertained the guests, in which Mrs. J.H. Sellars received (the) prize. A delicious ice course was served. BASEBALL It was not a sixteen to one, that we heard of so often many years ago when everbody went crazy over the money situation, in Ellaville last Friday afternoon. It was simply a game of good, friendly baseball, in which Buena Vista and Ellaville tied up for the final game of the season, and that 16 to 1 was the way that the score stood at the end of the seventh inning, when it was necessary to call the game on account of Ellaville being at the bat and there seemed to be no possible chance for Buena Vista to ever retire the third man. Don't forget that the 16 was Ellaville's and the 1 was Buena Vista's.
