Rough, red hands are the trial of most
housewives. 81 don't mind the work if |
could only keep my hands nice" signs the
young woman.
You will have less work and nice hands
at the same time if you use Fels-Naptha
soap in washing clothes. Hot water chaps
the hands; hard-rubbing on the washboard
swells the knuckles. Using Fels-Naptha in
cold or lukewarm water, you have neither
hot water, hard-rubbing nor nauseous
steam. But Fels-Naptha must be used the
Fels-Naptha Wayne boiling.
Follow directions on the red and green

STATE SCHOOL CHAMPIONSHIP
Troy Conference Academy and Mont
peler to Play a Tie Game

Poultney, Nov, 22.-Montpelier
seminary and Troy Conference acad-
envy played a no-score game here Sat
urday afternoon for the state school
championship. Each school had won
all its games in its respective terri
tory and the game had awakened a
large amount of interest among those
interested in the sport.
The game was closely contested.
Montpelier rushed the ball two yards
tc one for their opponents but the
Poultney team overcame this advan-
tage by clever forward passing. Dur
ing the first half Montpelier had the
ball ones on the Poultney vineyard
line but the home team here showed
it's metal and gained possession of
the ball
During the second half the ball was
carried back and forth near the cen
ter of the field until only two minutes
of play remained. An exchange of
punts gave Poultney what looked like
a safety, but Referee Fisher of Mid
dlebury college decided that the point
did not count for the reason that the
ball had rolled over the side line on
its way to the Montpelier goal line

ALLOWED DOGS TO RUN DEER
Harold J. Rice Of searsburg Fined SIS
and Costs

County Warden Harry Chase went
to Searsburg Saturday to prosecute
the case against Harold J. Rice of
that town on the charge of allowing
dogs to run deer The offence, it is
alleged, was committed during the
open season, the dogs being permitted
TO take the track of a wounded buck.
The buck was eventually killed by an
other hunter and the wrangle that re-
suited over the possession of the deer
brought out the fact that dogs took a
part in the chase.
Complaint reached Deputy Allen
Briggs, Jr., who turned the case over
to the county warden. Rice was ar
raigned before Justice Edward Bel
KNAPP, pleaded guilty and was fined SO
and costs.

RED CROSS SENDS ON
RECEIPTS FOR FUNDS
Individual Acknowledgment to All
Who Donated Through The
Argus.

The Argus today received from the
treasurer of the Red Cross society in
dividual receipts for the various sums
contributed by local people towards
the Cherry fund. The Argus in turn
is forwarding these acknowledgements
to those who made their contributions
through this paper.
Miss Dina Ramser, secretary of the
Rock Island Associated Charities, re-
Gently wrote to S. c. Kingsley, general
superintendent of the United Charities
of Chicago for information as to the
condition and needs of the families
who suffered by the Cherry mine hor-
ror. In his reply, Mr.. Kingsley says:
The immediate needs are well pro-
vided for both in food and clothing A
great abundance of the latter has now
been sent in, and I think everybody is
or can be provided for from the stock
on hand These families will be left
quite helpless, and the plan is to ap-
portion this money according to the
needs and to pay it out in monthly and
semi-mOIthly payments. In some cases
this will need to run over quite a long
period of time because there are large
families of small children"

STEALS RINGS;
GIRL DELINQUENT
Emma Peterson, Aged 16,
Gives Jewelry to Travel
ing Man Friend.
BELONGED TO A RELATIVE
Court Orders Her Committed to Cor
receive School at Geneva
Home in Sears.

Emma Peterson, 16 years old, whose
home is at Sears, was adjudged a de-
linquent in the county court this morn
ing, and Judge Olmsted ordered her
committed TO the school for girls at
Geneva. The girls mother, Mrs. Kate
Peterson. was the petitioner.
For some time the girl has been
keeping bad company and the protests
and pleadings of her parents were of
no avail. The climax was reached
when she developed into a thief. Sew
eral days ago she visited a relative in
Moline, and when she departed several
rings valued at $50 were missed, and
she was suspected. The matter was re
ported to the police and the girl was
arrested and accused of the theft. She
broke down and confessed having tax
en- the rings, but said she intended to
give them back after wearing them for
a time. They were found in the pos
session of a travelling man who was
staying at a hotel in Davenport AMI
who stated that the girl had given them
TO him as a present.
Held to Grand Jury.
She was taken before Police Magis-
trate Frank Gustafson of Moline and
arraigned on the charge of larceny, to
which she plead guilty. The magis-
trate bound her over to the grand jury
under bonds of $500. The delinquency
proceedings will end the matter. and
it is hoped by the girls parents and
c1r4s IL.
leave the school at Geneva, she will
be able to keep in the straight and
narrow path.
