PAINT'PROTECTION against depreciation—
just as necessary and wise as msurance'protec*
tion against fire!
And be certain that your paint protection is as re*
liable and dependable as your fire insurance.
Two'thirds the cost of a painting job is labor.
Hei *-e, to use the best paint adds but little to the
first cost. It is cheapest in the end.
Pure Prepared Paint and Phoenix Pure Paint are
made of only pure linseed oil, pure white lead and
pure pigments. ‘Cheaper” paints are made of cheap*
er materials, hence the film they form doesn’t “hold
up”—it doesn’t last and it doesn’t protect.
Ask any Fuller Dealer. Write for free book, “Your

suggests many color schemes. For all large jobs con*
suit a master painter.

FASTEST GAME
SEASON WON BY
BANKERS’ NINE1

MANY SPECTATORS SEE GAME
Smallest Score of Winter Turned in
at Last Night’s Game of Indoor
Baseball at S. A. C. Gym
Vengeance will out! The elite
Bankers’ team, tail-enders in the race
: for the flag in the city league, up and
smote the pesky Merchants 9 to 4 in
a well attended game at the S. A. C.
gym last night. The Bankers’ bite
was effected principally by the sub
terranean ball delivered by Prof. Bar
nett who did the twirling for the hi
brows, and turned in the best pitch
ing exhibition the fans have seen for
the season. A good game was also put
on by Valade; for any pitcher holding
an opposing team to nine tallies in
the loose game put on by the local
talent deserves much credit. Barnett
was just that much better.
Each team borrowed three men to
fill their line up. The Merchants used
Lien, McLanghlin, and Tinkler, and
the Bankers secured Snyder, Rucker
| and Hopkins.
From the beginning it was apparent
that a tight game would ensue. The
Bankers, first to bat, scored a run in
the opening frame on hits by Hopkins
and Snyder and Heckman’s sacrifice!
out. Valadge retired Ratliff, Barnett,:
and Rucker in order in the second,
but the Bankers came back with three
runs in e^ch of the third and fourth
innings on hits by Blue, Snyder, Heck
man, Bolam, Rucker and Barnett.
After Jessen’s out in the Merchants’
first, Lien and McLaughlin hit safely,
but Shellhorn’s best effort to put the
runners across was a roller to Heck
man, quickly converted into a put
out, and Gus Manthey was Barnett’s
first strike out victim. In the second
Valade went out, McEwen unassisted,
Tinkler singled, stole second base and
went to third on Urbach’s out, but
died there as Bolam and McEwan dis
posed of Bob Manthey for the round, j
The third inning saw the first marker !
credited to the Merchants, though the
run was in dispute. Jessen, first up,
sent a single to right field. Lien also
hit to right and Jessen reached third.
On McLaughlin’s tip Jessen was out
at the plate. Lien advanced to sec
ond base on the throw in. Shellhorn
singled but Lien was halted at third,
where he stayed while Barnett whiffed
Gus Manthey again. Valade sent a
liner between first and second and a
quick return by Rucker turned Lien
back to third. Tom Dyer, umpiring
on bases, then ruled Shellhorn out as
Valade’s liner had hit him while be
tween the bases.
The Merchants’ further scoring was
made in the fourth, fifth and eighth,
but the air tight pitching of the Pro
fessor with Hopkins on the receiving
end held them to one run in each of
the innings mentioned. The Bankers’
eighth run was scored in the eighth
inning on hits by Barnett and Blue.
McEwan crossed the plate with the
final tally in tlie ninth.
