Mr.. Major. the famous cement man, of
New York. explains some very interest ing
facts abOnt Majors Cement.
The mu'titudes who Use this standard ar
ticlc know that it is many hundred per
cent. better than other cementS for which
similar claims are made. but Il great many
do not know why The simple reason is
that Mr.. Major uses the best materials
ever discovered and other manufacturers
do not use them, because they are too cX-
pensive and do not allow large profits. Mr..
Maj Or tells us :hnt one of the elements OF
his cement costs - IS II pound. and an
other costs 81 IS II gallon, while II large
share of the so-called dement's and liquid
glue upon the market are nothing more
than siXteen-cent glue. dissolved i'll water
or citric acid, and IN some cases. altered
slightly in color and odor by the addition
of cheap and useless materials.
Majors cement rrtals ut fifteen and
dealer tries to sell substitute YOU can de
pend upon it that his only object Is to make
Iarger profit.
The profit ON Majors cement is rs much
as any dealer ought TO make on amy cement.
And this is doubly true III view of the fact
that each dealer gets his share of the bene
fit of Mr. Majors advertising. which now
amounts to over 5000 IA month. throughout
the country. ES'ab ished in 1876.
Insist on having Majors. Don't accept

due. Captain Brooks at quarter
passed the ball finely, ran his team
with excellent judgment, and got
into the interference with precision.
The halt backs, {. X. Hudson and
Narcotic, ran the ends with skill.
They are light men, and vet their
clear grit IN warding off heavy tack
lers and in keeping agoine while
there was the least chance of gain
ing Il foot was most comncndable.
AS full back, Howcs was Il surprise.
He hit the line low and with splen-
did force, going through, for from
three to six yards with untailing
regularity.
In defensive work the backs were
all that they should be. They tack
led with skill and pluck and backed
up the line in fine style.
Suffice to say, that against Il much
heavier team Woodstock played Il
good, clean. manly and skilliul
game and deserves the greatest
credit for the score o to o, where de-
feat seemed assured.
We ask for the team the support,
moral and financial, of our fellow
townsmen and promise in return the
best efforts of the men to uphold
WoodStock's honored name for fair
and square sport.

at any one time, even tor signal prac-
tice.
Extensively and defensivelv. the
game put up by the boys was re-
markable exhibition. Woodstock
won the toss and elected to kick off.
AT this point of the game the team
had not begun to work well to-
gether and by short sharp rusheS and
plunges into the line. Lebanon car
ried the ball down to Woodstock's
one ward line.
Just here occurred IA display of
stamina aud pluck to be proud of.
With their own backs playing be-
hind the goal line, the team braced
up and held the much heavier Leba-
non line and backs for fou! downs.
The ball went to Woodstock and
by fine offensive work, line bucking
by Howes, and running by Hudson,
Sawyer and Narcotic, the ball was
carried to the centre OF the field.
Here it was lost. but soon regained
on Il tumble, and it remained in
Woodstock's possession until the end
OF the half.
The second lalt' was Il repetition
of the first. Lebanon kicked off and
Bancroft got the ball, running back
fifteen yards. He was finally brought
down bv the Lebanon left guard and
end. He proved most difficult
man to tackle and it required the
united efforts of these two to bring
him down
During the halt the ball changed
hands several times, but was nearly
always in " oodstock's possession.
The play during both halves was
kept in Lebanon'S territory or in
mid.feld. Towards the close of the
second half Jaquith was taken from
right guard and put in at full back,
Howes going in at guard From
this position he hit the line very
hard and tore great holes in Leba-
mons defence.
1t would be unfair to mention anv
one of the men without mentioning
all. Pember's work at centre was
fine. He passed the ball well and
got into the plays with vim and
dash. Houghton and .Jaquith, out
guards, were towers of strength;
they more than handled the heavy
men opposite them, and with the
assistance of the tackles and centre,
opened up great holes in Lebanon's
line. At tackle Banc' oft and Rice
played Il fine game. Bancroft had
never been in a footboll game be-
fore. and Rice had never practiced
with the te;np. Yet these men held
like rocks in defense and on offence
thev were most effective. On one
play, an end run, Rice broke
through the line and got the runner
from behind tor an eight yard loss.
Merrill, Sawyer and Bean at the
ends played a great game, breaking
into the interference and downing
the men with the ball in great stvle.
These men do not use any 'waltz
hold in tackling, and when they
reach the man the play is pretty |
sure to stop right there.
Behind the line the same praise is I

FIRE AT MAPLEWOOD FARM.

Fire DESTROYED the big blooder
house ut Maplewood farm Thursday
evening. Two or three hundred
chickens were roasted in their teath-
ers. The alarm came by telephone
about S o'clock and the fire bell here
started Il rush of citizens for the
scene, the summons sweeping the
streets clean in Il moment The
hook and ladder company was
promptly on the move, but was
stopped with the machine by Chief
Engineer W,nslow at the village
limits and turned back. Later the
truck was ordered to the fire and
the BOYS did effective work IN knock
ing over the blazing building.
The fire is supposed to have
caught from Il Kerosene lamp used
in one of the breeders, and there
being no fire protection at the farm
the blaze could not be checked,
mounting high and being visible for
IA long distance.
The efforts of the men on the
ground were all directed toward saw
ing the adjoining buildings, the fire
fighters using water buckets and
blankets as the only means at hand.
One gallant volunteer on the ridge
pole of the barn drew up water
pals by a rope and sprinkled the
smoking shingles dipperful at a
time.
A row of hen houses stood only a
short distance from the flames and
the big barn was only ten or fifteen
feet from one end of the burning
building. This was in the greatest
peril and a very light wind would
have meant the destruction of every
building on the place.
At about 10 o'clock the fire was
down and the damage practically
over, The hrooder house was 200
leet long, well built structure and
well equipped for poultry raising,
in which J. Foster Rhodes, the
owner, was quite largely interested.
The loss is not given, but there was
no insurance and it will represent a
good figure
Hundreds of people from the vii
lagc and from surrounding farms
were on the ground, the road from
here to the BAN being lined with
teams, bicyclists and foot passen-
gers.
