Welsh, not u single respectable empty

He compared the work of their Police

the crowd, where laid the sincerity.
In conclusion lie asked these voters

JENNINGS ADVOCATE:
REASONING At FAULT
Mr.. c. c. Morton Rehearses Time
worn Argument Fav0ring the
Town on the Border as
Parish Seat.

tn Mondays issue Of the Jennings
paper, our good friend G. G. Morton,
Of near Roanoke, dev0tes consider
able space to re-hashing some of the
worn ont arguments that Jennings has
been advancing for locating the par
ish seat on the extreme edge of the
parish, rather than in the center.
Mr.. M0rtOn's communication while
occupying considerable space does
not present IL single new thought or
argument, and IN fact we might say
does not present any argument,
whether old or new, as every point
that he has sought to make has been
completely and successfully refuted,
long before he embodied them i'll his
article.
He recounts the fact that jennings is
Offering her city hall for the use Of
the parish free for ten years, which he
declares Will mean a saving or S2o,-
600 to the parish during that period.
In this connection, what assurance
Mr.. Morton can you, Or the people Of
Jennings, give that the next, or some
future Jennings city council will not
repudiate the action of this Council,
in regard to donating the city hall to
the parish, just as the action of other
Jennings city councils have been re-
pudiated or forced by the courts to be
changed. Again Mr.. Morton, in your
own words, who would either want
or expect the best of the three new
parishes cut out Of old Calcasieu to
get along for the next decade with a
$I4 900 structure for a courthouse?
You also state, Mr.. Morton, that this
would save the parish some $50, 900 in
ftoutiuued on mage 81

OF the season Saturday afternoon
with the freshmen of Cornell college.
The game was arranged following re-

meet the collegians. st. Ambrose has
played five games this year and won
four of them which is the best record
the school has ever made considering
the class of the teams which furnish
ed opposition. Thanksgiving day the

The eleven OF the Davenport high

final home game, on the coming Sat

will be to a finish as the Rabbits
have a powerful team. Their back
field is composed OF fast men and they
have an exceptionally strong line.
The Tigers vii. come down TO Daven-
port with reputation as good as
Davenport, and with the anticipation
Of a hard battle.
Comparative scores give Davenport
a shade the better chances for vic
tory. At the first OF the season the
Rabbits were beaten by Coe frrhhmen

were not used TO playing together

SQUAD PRACTICES
IN SPITE OF Rain
High School Team Runs
Through Plays in Brilliant
Manner.

While the rain poured down in tor
rents yesterday afternoon the high
school team showed some of that
old time spirit, which has been lack
ing heretofore this season. The sig
mas and plays were run through with
a great show of pep" and the team
showed what kind of a game they
had played at Princeton Saturday.
A number of new plays have been
tried out the last two nights and
found valuable and will probably be
used in the game Saturday with Rock
ford. The team has been weakened
by the loss of Andrews, who will not
be in the game Saturday. He played
good game at Princeton last Satur
day, and was looked upon as one of
the strongest men in the line. Just
who will fill his place is not as yet
known, but it rests between Chalk and
Criswell, who have been showing up
well at practice. Coach Corneal has
made a number OF changes in the
lineup. Sexton, the fast end of last
years team, was playing the right
half back position last evening, and
Kipp was back at his old position at
quarter. The change at present seems
to be beneficial. Sexton is a fast
man, and with Whistler at one half
back position and Sexton at the other
the back fed of the team will prob
ably be its strongest point. Just who
will make the trip to Rockford Friday
afternoon, is not as yet known, but
it will probably be the same as went

ROCKFORD SURE OF
DEFEATING LOCALS

Rockford papers state that their
team is rounding into fine shape for
Saturdays game with Rock Island.
Last Saturday the Socks City squad
had easy pickings with Joliet, running
up a big score on that aggregation.
This week will be put in teaching the
boys the fine points of tackling, for
ward passing and stiff arming. Rock
ford appears to be quite confident of
taking the measure of the locals and
the only question with them seems to
be the size of the score.
Negotiations are no now between
Rockford and Clinton, Iowa, for a
Thanksgiving day contest.

MOLINE TEAM BACK
AT PRACTICE AGAIN

Moline high school team has re-
sumed practice after nearly a weeks
iGaction and Coach Burroughs expects
the squad TO be in gilt-edged shape for
the game with Danville high school
Saturday. Moline had no game Sat
urday and as there were signs of
"staleness" in the team the coach let
up and called off practice towards the
middle of the week. The rest has re-
suited in the elimination of all bruises
and sprains and all the players are
in good condition for the hard game
which is expected with the downstat-
ers at Browning field at the end of
this week.
