MAY CANCEL ALL GAMES
Y. M. c. A. BAsKETBALL TEAM GO-
 ING IN HOLE.
Attendance at Vanderbilt Game Thurs- day Evening Win Decide the Matter-PatronnEe Poor
 in Past.

Unless a fair amount of Interest Is shown by local I. M. c. A. members and other Montgomerians in the bas- ketball game Thursday evening be- tween the Vanderbilt University five and the local r. M. c. A. team, the re- maining games of the Y. M. c. A. sched- ule will be cancelled.
 This decision was reached by the has- ket ball committee of the local associa- tion at its meeting at the Y. M. .. A. Tuesday evening. The full member ship of this committed, consisting of J. Lee Holloway, Arthur Hannon, J. Brewer. Harris Washburn Harry Mar GUS and c. E. Stock. physical director, was present.
 The support given the home team. the attendance at the. games end the sdvisability of cancelling the remain ing games were discussed, It was de- cided that unless a crowd turns out to witness the Vanderbilt game Tnurs- day evening to warrant the support or an association team. future games would be cancelled and the team dis banded.
 The association lost about $35 on the game last Thursday night against Each game scheduled to be played in Montgomery calls for $6c guarantee. Last year the Y. M c. A. lost approxi- mately s2oo on the seasons basketball
 Games have been scheduled with Birmingham, Mobile, New Orleans and Columbus. Ga. should these games be cancelled, the Y. M. c. A. will be compelled to forfeit t25 for each game. according to the rules of the southern Basketball League. The basketball committee considers it better to do this than to go in the noie on each game scheduled for Montgomery.
 The Vanderbilt game Thursday even- ing promises to be a fast one. Cap tain McGehee will bring strong team with him to Montgomery, and the Ten nesseeans are considered the fastest college five in the South this season.
 The local team worked hard Tuesday evening and will go into the game in sood condition. Although light, the local team is fast.

SCORES HYPNoTIsM.
Head of Jefferson County Physicians
 Outlines Work.

Birmingham. Dec. 2S.-(Special)- President J. D. Heacock. of the Jeff ferson County Medical Society, has filed his annual address giving an out line of the work accomplished during the past year and enumerating sever- al recommendations. He scores hyp- notism, as follows:
 "The demonstration of hypnotism on our streets few weeks ago and fre- quently in our theatres is to be depre- cated. This thing of one person sub Jugating his will to that of another through some mysterious influence is an unmitigated evil. Scientists tell us that the effects of hypnotism are all ways detrimental to a normal person. Once a man has been put under the influence of another, a gradual pro- cess of character deterioration is be- gun, which does not necessarily cease when he has been released from the trance itself. He Is more open to out sides suggestion. evil allurments that he was previously able to repel with out effort may then get The better of him. Pschychiatrists never carry their patients to the point of profound sleep.
 while this Is more or less a moral question, 1t is nevertheless our duty to let the people know that we do not endorse such demonstrations. and al-

HIGH PRICES TO STAY.
Champ Clark Sounds Warning to Far
 

Washington. Dec. 2s.--The present high prices for farm products have come to stay; the rural population is playing out; the present census. if it classes the unincorporated villages as towns, will show between 60 and 65 per cent of population living in towns" declared Representative Champ Clark of Missouri, the minority leader of the House.
 "At the present rate. in twenty years the United States will cease to be an exporting nation for agricultural pro- ducts except as to. cotton.
 "One of the principal causes of the high prices of farm products is the world movement of people toward the towns and cities. While few people in towns and cities have gardens and raise chickens and occasionally pigs. practically the entire town and city population are non-producers of any thing to eat, but are consumers only. For the first time. last year. Argentina beat us in exporting corn and Argen- tina and Brazil are now fighting to take the frozen meat trade from us."
