attention and additional restrictions have
been placed upon its execution. In the new
code the rules governing the forward pass
read as follows; "A player from the side

mage may pass or throw the ball toward
the opponents goal under the following re-
strictions: A forward pass may cross the
line of scrimmage at any point but the
player making the pass must be at least
five yards back of said line when pass Is
made. A forward pass that crosses line
twenty yards in advance of the spot where
the ball was put in play before touching
the ground or a player Is illegal and be-
comes dead as 1t crosses the line. Only
one forward pass may be. made in the
same scrimmage: a second forward pass in
the same scrimmage is illegal. II the ball,
after having been legally passed forward
strikes the ground within the field OF play
before being touched by q player OF either
side, the pass shall not be considered as
completed. After the ball has been legally
passed forward 1t may first be touched
only by such players of the passer's side
as were at the time the ball was put in
play at least one yard behind the line OF
scrimmage or were playing at either end
of said line
IF forward pass is first touched by an
illegal player Of the passer's side the pass
shall not be considered as completed. Any
player of the side that did not make the
forward pass has full right TO touch and
to attempt to secure possession OF the ball.
When the ball has been legally passed for
ward and has been legally touched before

side not making the pass, any player Of
either side has the right to attempt to Sc
cure possession OF the ball OF the players

MIX THIS FOR RHEUMATISM
Easily Prepared and Inexpensive and Really Does the Work, Says
 Noted Authority.

Thousands of men and women who have felt the sting and torture of that dread disease, Rheumatism, which is no respecter of age, persons, sex, color or rank, will be interested to know that it is one of the easiest af- flictions of the human body to con- Quer. Medical science has proven it not a distinct disease in itself, but symptom caused by inactive kidneys. Rheumatism is uric acid in the blood and other waste products of the sys- tenn which should be filtered and strained out in the form of urine. The function of the kidneys is to sift these poisons and acids out and keep the blood clean and pure. The kidneys however, are of spOnge-like substance, the holes or pores of which will some times, either from overwork, cold or exposure become clogged, and failing in their function of eliminating these pOisOns from the blood, they remain in the veins, decompose and settling about the joints and muscles, cause the untold suffering and pain of rheu- matism and backache, often producing complications of bladder and urinary disease, and general weakness.
 The following simple prescription is said to relieve the worst eases of rheumatism because of it's direct ac- tion upon the blood and kidneys, re- lie8ng, too, the most severe forms of bladder and urinary troubles: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking well in Q bot tie and take in teaspoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime. The in- gradients can be had from any pre- scription pharmacy. and are absolutely harmless and safe to use at any time.

REWARD AFTER MANY YEARS
A Modest Hero Gets a Gold Medal From Uncle Sam for Life
 Saving Bravery.

Washington-After 32 years of waiting, James Cummings, of Custer. Mich, quiet hero, too modest to tell of his own bravery, has received from the treasury department a gold medal for his part in saviHg A lives from the wreck of the g1Win barge Rutler off Ludington, Mich. on November l, 1878.
 Cummings was the engineer on the government harbor tug Colonel Ora ham. In a raw November gale the Rutler went down in IS feet of water. when the cargo shifted, and drove the crew of A into the rigging. There the men hung night and a day, the icy water breaking over them.
 When Capt. Frederick Kendrick of the Graham volunteered to tow a life boat out to the wreck and the masters of sturdier craft had shaken their heads and declared it a lost hope. Cum. mings, down in the dark hold of the tug, stood by the throttle and encour- aged his firemen. In a sea that threat ened to swamp the tug and carried off the lifeboat they fought to the lee side of the wreck and took off the men.
 Capt. Kendrick got a medal fmmedf- ately, but the engineer below was for gotten, until Representative James Mclaughlin recently heard of his case and brought it to the attention of the treasury department.

Artesian Well at RichfieId.

ing portion of Kansas have driven for miles in motor cars to visit the well At Guymon, Hooker, TeXhoma and other Oklahoma towns in old No Mans Land." the citizens are full of enthusiasm over the big strike. They believe the formations in Oklahoma
 re practically the same as those around Richfeld and each of these towns is preparing to put down well for purposes of demonstration.
 It is felt that successful well will solve for all time to come the vexa- tious question of sufficient moisture in this section. Irrigation congresses have repeatedly been held in north western Oklahoma, but so far without practical result.
 "Old timers" however, assert that irrigation is by no means an absolute necessity Those who have been here for many years say all this porteon Of Oklahoma needs is more farmers who have faith in the country and who will use intelligence in their methods Irrigation, they say, is merely a sort of insurance against insufficient rain fall, just as it would be in Kansas or Missouri.

Indian Summer.

ashington.-Indian summer in North America is a period of mild balmy weather-usually occurring in r-characterized by clear sky and a hay or smoky atmosphere, cs- pecially near the horizon. The name is said to be derived from the custom among the Indians. of using this de lightful time to harvest their corn. According to one of their traditions they always had a second summer Of nine days just before the winter set in. Indian summer corresponds to a similar season prevailing during the late autumn in England and the AIedi- terranean countries, called "St Mar tins Summer" from St. Martins Fes- tival which falls on Nov. II.

TO MAKE COMMUNITY BETTER
Farmer May Do for Common Cause Power of Individual.

To make the community better is a lofty aim. It means much for agri- culture as a whole, and for each indi- yidual farm in particular. But this advance or improvement must, from its very nature, be built upon com munity service. The individual must serve the community in order that the community may be made better, says Orange Judd Former.
 The spirit of thfs movement Is very active; it has been at work for long time. Its evidences are noted in the comfortable farm homes, the heater roadsides, the tasty rural yards, the convenient modes of travel, the bet ter educational facilities, the many organizations In which rural folk are working, and scores of other chan nels in which progress is manifest
 This service will continue to oper- ate In sympathy with the community good Indeed, the advance of the past is but a mild indication of what that of the future will be. Money making and money saving will give way to money spending. Not money spending in a reckless or selfish fash ion, nor yet even in way of more land or stock simply for increased holding; but the spirit of future expenditures will be in line of the physical com forts, the family needs and luXuries, and enrichment of country life.
 As a result, farms will be made to yield well that the homes may be i'm proved; less hours will be devoted to manual toll that more may be given to thinking and reading and study ing; small farms well-managed will be more appreciated than large ones indifferently titled and unwisely man. aged. This change of outlook will contribute to the profit of the indi- vidual and to the community,
 All this suggests the power of the individual in community advance. There is indeed no limit to what each farmer may do for the common cause. Every fence now improved leads to improvement in another, every ugly advertising sign removed causes many more to meet the same fate, every farmhouse when installed with modern lights, heat and water Il systems, gives accelaration to the movement of more comfort and satis- faction and enrichment of life. So in every direction; let the least bit of advance be made and the neighbors will observe, the community profit

Sheep suffer severely from intes- .kpal parasites, and in some sections yf the country large losses are ire 4quently experienced among the 'lambs, but it is claimed that these parasites can be controlled by prop CT management and the losses re duced to a minimum Aside from the parasites and the dogs, the average eastern farmer has no serious draw backs to contend with in sheep rals- ing. Sheep do not ordinarily suffer from virulent contagious diseases and, therefore, have a certain adVau- tage over hogs as moneymakers on the farm. They are clean in habits gentle in disposition and attractive in appearance.

Old Beverly Church Constructed
 With a Magazine.
Towns Ammunition Stored for Safe Keeping in Unitarian Structure No Fires Ever Kindled
 In Meeting House.

Beverly, Mass. - The Unitarian church of Beverly is located on Cabot street in the central part of the city. For some years the parish was con nected with Salem
 In the winter of 1866 the people of the Beverly parish sent a petition to the Salem people stating that they wished to form parish of their own in Beverly and to erect a house of worship. The petition was received. 1t was signed by Roger Conant and IS other church members.
 On July 4, 1867, the subject of the petition was again considered and unanimous consent was given. Aug. 28 of the same year Mir. Hale accepted call, and on Sept. 27 he was ordained. Previous to the ordination exercises the church was organized
 The following provision was made by the society for pr. Hales support His salary was to De G7O a year with 90 cords of fircwood. It was further agdeed that he should have the use of new house, two acres of land to be fenced in, as much meadow as bore about four loads of hay and the benefit of the pasturing during the time that he remained with them in the ministry.
 In 1890 MT Hale was invited by the general court to join the expedition against Canada as chaplain. This was strongly objected to on the part of the parish but the objection did not seem to have weight and he went MT. Hale died May f5 HOO, and Thomas Blower of Cambridge sue ceeded him, being ordained Oct. 26 17O1.
 Tine first meeting house was built in 1856, near the site of the present vestry. The second meeting house was built in 1GS2, on the site of the present church The house was used for the transaction Of public business, and in 1727 powder room was built
The Green Forest tribune., 1910-12-09

for the safe keeping of the ammuni. tion of the town. No fires were ever kindled in the meeting house, so it was considered a safe place for the storage of the powder.
 In 1755 the population of the parish was about HOO souls, and it becam apparent that a larger edifice wa needed but it was not until ITO that the old house was taken down to make room for a new one. The new house was built, and in 1795 it was en- larged. In 1885 it was again enlarged at cost of $10,0OO, the whole struc- ture being taken down with the ex- cepion of the stout ouken frame, and rebuilt in it's present form The church still stands and is in first-class condition.

granite, nine feet high, and the work was done by Burr c. Miller, a son of Walter Miller, who was an intimate friend of MT. Reed The cost was about $35,000.
 Photographs of the statue displayed in Washington have been severely criticised. There is not one single line, critics say, of Tom Reeds strong face in the figure that has been erect ed. Neither is it natural to see Tom Reed with a scroll in his hand, they say. He never used one. He very seldom used notes. Sometimes he had his desk piled with books and papers when he was making a long. continued effort; but, generally speak ing, Speaker Reed stood over and clear of everything as he drove home his well-rounded periods.

OKLAHOMA ARTISAN WELLS
A Recent Strike at Richfied, Kan, Has Induced Hope of Relief

Oklahoma City, Ok.-All Texas county, Oklahoma. is agitated over the prospect of artesian water, in which the farmers see sure relief from the "droughty" conditions which have prevailed throughout this section for the last three years.
 At Richfeld, Kan. only eighteen miles above the Oklahoma line, heavy flow of artesian water has been struck where prospectors were putting down an oil well. When the hole reached a depth of $50 4eet the water rushed out with great force and the estimated volume of water is 1,200 gallons per minute. Hundreds of peo- pie from Oklahoma and the surround

 The silo may be filled to the top hoop, the hay now crammed to the rafters, the corn cribs ribs may be springing outward and the cellar be redolent of fruit, yet if our hearts are empty of sympathy for our less fortunate neighbors, our harvest has been a failure.
 It is all right to plan work before doing 1t but we once knew a farmer who spent so much time planning that he never got his work properly done. It was a beautiful sight to see him sitting under the trees in the front yard planning, while his wife hood in the garden.

Chinese weddino Is Solemn

San Franeisco-A Chinese marriage is all ceremony-no talk. no leYity, and much crying. The solemnfty of 8 funeral prevails. After the exchange of presents the bride is dressed with much care. A feast is spread upon 8 table, to which the blushing bride is led by five of her best female friends
 They are seated at the table, but no one eats. The utmost silence pre- vails, when finally the mother leads off in cry, the maids follow. and the bride echoes in the chorus. Then all the bridesmaids leave the table, and the disconsolate mother takes a seat beside the chair of state where the bride sits. The bridegroom now en- ters, with four of his best men, The men pick up the throne on which the bride sits and preceded by the bride groom form in procession and walk around the room or into an adjoining parlor, signifying that he is carrying her away to his own home. The guests then throw rice at the happy couple.
