The Shenandoah ValleyAcademy
football team had the hardest kind
of time to defeat Berryville by 5
to o on ROsement field Saturday
afternoon, and but for faulty time
keeping it is likely that the locals
would have tied or equalled the
visitors score. The halves were
scheduled to go fifteen minutes
each. In the first half, the visitors
scored touchdown on mass plays,
after the ball had whipsawed back
and forth across the field, but failed
to kick goal. Length of first half
17:40 (after all time allowances had
been dedacted). In the second
half the locals started out with the
determination of winning the game
and every body fought hard. Ryan,
of the visitors, and Mccormick
and l.. Foley, of the locals, were
laid out in order, and several
minutes of play was lost while
reviving the injured warriors.
Finally, after play had been re-
sumed, the locals rushed the ball
down to the fifteen-yard line Of
their opponents, and with five full
minutes to play, the game was
called. Time of second half 9:52
with all time allowances deducted).
1t was good game of football,
but bum pice of work on the
part of the official timekeeper.
The game was so rough, and so
many players received injuries,
that it is hardly probable the Pro-
fessOr Farmer will encourage
further football at the High School.
Both teams confined their efforts
almost entirely to the old-style oi
play, and the open plays and for.
ward passes of the new game were
conspicuOusly absent.

The Baltimore Sun of Sunday
prints an excellent half.tone por-
trait Of Miss Lillian Burchell
Greiner, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. j. r. Greiner, and says:
Miss Lillian Burchell Greiner
is the daughter of Mr., and Mrs.
j. f. Greiner, of Roland Park,
and is one of this seasons most
charming debutantes. She is an
attractive example of the athletic
girl. being skilled in out-of-door
sports, and tennis player and
horsewoman of ability. In addi-
ton, she is an extremely pretty
girl and is exceedingly popular,
both in local and out Of town
society.
''Mr. and Mrs. j. L. Greiner
gave one of the largest and most
beautifully appointed receptions
of the winter yesterday at their
home, 6 Edgevale road, Roland
Park, to introduce, their debutante
daughter, Miss Lillian Burchell
Greiner. The house which is built
on the Colonial plan, is one of the
handsomest in Roland Park and
was elaborately decorated for the
occasion. The drawing DOM was
arranged with American Beauty
roses and white chrysanthemums,
to harmonic with the French pink
hangings of the room. In the
large Colonial hall, music room
and dining room palms and pink
chrysanthemums were artistically
placed.
Mrs. Greiner wore handsome
imported Louis XIV gown OF
chrysanthemum yellow pompadour
silk, heavily embroidered in pastel
shades and trimmed with rose point
lace. She carried a bouquet of
yellow chrysanthemums.
Miss Greiner's dress was of
ivory satin, made in tunic style
and hand embroidered in white
and silver. The guimpe was of
tuIle pleatings on the skirt. She
held a large bouquet of American
Beauty roses, one of many sent

Thomson, only one OF our two brains

when we come into this world we
have a pair OF quite thoughtless brains

was ever born speaking English nor
any other language. No newly born
babe knows anything by sight nor by
any other sense. Every kind OF knOwl-

cation. But only recently have We
found that this education necessitates
the creation OF n local anatomical
change in brain matter To make il the
special seat for that Accomplishment
Thus no one can become skilled vio-
lin player until by long faShiOning he
has at last made a violin playing place
In his cerebrum.
But all this brain fashioning takes
so much time and trouble that for

sphere will do all that is necessary.
the individual spends his efforts on
one OF them only. As both hemi-
spheres are equally good for this pur-
pose, which Of the two he will educate
depends on which one he begins with.
This is settled for him when as 4
child he begins ell his training by the
hand that he then most easily uses; 4;

Houssbreaker Captured.

Edward jackson, colored. was
brought to- town last "Wednesday
by Mrs. WilliamKnight and Roger
Hardesty, and turned over to the
authorities, charged with breaking
into Mrs. Knights store, near
Lake View, and taking some
money, pistol and shotgun shells,
and other articles.
As soon as Manager Strudwick,
of the Battletown Inn. heard OF
the arrest, he had another warrant
issued for Jackson, charging him
with attempted burglary at the
Inn ON Sunday morning. Noyem-
ber 10, as told in last week s
COURIER.
After preliminary bearings on
both warrants, jackson was sent
on to the grand jury. and now re-
mains in the local Jail awaiting
trial.
1t appeared from the evidence,
that Mrs. Knight had left her store
(which is not connected with her
dwelling house) aud had locked
the store door. Some time after
ward she saw colored boy going
away from the store, but did not
suspect anything wrong. Still
later, she noticed the same boy
going down the Turnpike toward
Berryville. and shortly thereafter
discovered that the store window
had been broken in and number
of articles taken.
Hastily calling young Hardesty.
a team was hitched up, and the
pair started down the road toward
Berryville, looking for the negro
boy. He was seen in the County
road near Mr.. John Gaunt's. and
young Hardesty ordered him to
get into the buggy. He at first
refused, but when llardesty pre-
sented a revolver ut his head, he
climbed in and was brought to
town. When searched 10y Sergeant
Ricamore. the money and shells
were found in his pockets.
Mr.. Strudwick is practically
positive in his Identification OF
Jackson as the man at whom he
fired, and the case looks very dark
for the negro.

Was reflected from the river.
Sweet are those hours in my life when I
deem
That the real is but the seeming;
That the true is she and the sun-fecked

W hen her eyes in mine were beaminC.
Then l sink to sleep and there comes a

The oak tree shadows quiver.

To Approve Lee Statue

Hon. Thomas ID. Gold left this
morning for Richmond to attend a
meeting of the committee of the
Senate and House of Delegates
which was appointed several years
ago to inspect the designs and ac-
cept the final design for the monu-
ment to Gen. Robert +. Lee which
will be placed in the Hall of Fame
in the Capitol at Washington.
The members Of the committee
were notified few days ago that
the sculptor had completed the
plaster cast for the statue, and a
meeting was at once called for the
purpose of inspecting the cast.
If the design is accepted by the
committee, the statue will at once
be cast in bronze, and will then
be placed in the Hall of Fame on a
day to be selected later.
Ihis is the statue which aroused
such a flood of protest from the
North as to its acceptance, two
spaces having been allotted to each
State for the purpose of erecting
statues to their most distinguished
citizens.
The statue was designed bv
Valentine, the famous sculptor.

WithdraWS From Field

The only developments in the
Postofiice fight since our last issue
were the announcement of candi-
dacy of +. A. Lindsey, and the
withdrawal of Holmes Carlisle in
favor of Mr.. Lindsey's candidacy.
This now leaves three Republi-
cans, Messrs. Lindsey. Wiley and
Ramsburg, and one Democrat, J..
X. Elder, in the field.
We are informed by Holmes
Carlisle that he is a Republican,
instead of a Democrat, and we
publish that statement in order
thar he may feel satisfied. The
COURIER was informed that he bad
taken part in the Democratic pri-
mary, and we based our statement
upon that idea of the matter.
We were informed, indirectly.
that Mr.. Elder was also a Rcpub-
lican, but, as we have heard moth
ing from him in the matter. we
presume that is an error, although
we will be glad to print anything
III the matter that he may send us
directly. We based our statement
as to his politics upon converse
ton the editor of the COURIER had
with him Il few weeks ago concern
ing one of the ante-campsio n
Gubernational candidates i'm this
State.
1t looks aS though Mr.. Lindsey
was much stronger than Carlisle
had been at any stage of the fight.
as he not only commands all of the
strength that Carlisle mustered
but has considerable strength al
his own To add to it.
1t is an interesting fight, and
while practically everyone of our
citizens has his choice among the
candidates, the COURIER hopes ia
see one appointed who will be en-
tirely acceptable to all of the pat
rons of the Berryville postoffie.
