last week, and was utterly discouraged

a half per acre, hut, owing to the inva

Help the Baseball Association.
A committee representing the New
nan Baschull Association is making
canvas of the city, anil every citizen of
Newnan is asked to make a contribu
tion towards reducing the largt debt
hanging over the association. The
Beason just closed was a most ex
nensive one. The attendance this year
was woefully small, and in order to
keep the team at the top of the ladder
the directors were forced to Bpeml a
considerable sum of money in procuring
competent players to light for the flag.
The record made by the team was a
most commendable one, and every
citizen of Newnan should feel proud
that we finished but a half game be
hind Selma for the pennant. In or
der to finish the schedule the directors
were forced to borrow money from
time to time, and the bank is now call
ing on them to meet their notes. Every
true “fan” must agree that it is not
right for the directors to bear thiH linan
cial responsibility alone. They have
already made generous and substantial
subscriptions, and, besides, gave their
time to directing the team. Now they
are asking our citizens to make a con
trihution, and if everyone will help as
far as their means will permit the notes
can be paid and the debt reduced. The
committee expects to call on every cit
izen of Newnan, and everyone should
willingly help the cause.
