Cony High defeated Oak Grove Sem
mary. here, Saturday, in game, full
of trick plays and spectacular end
runs. The game was the fastest and
most interesting that Cony has play
ed. this fall.
Although Cony failed to make any
gains through Oak Groves line, she
more than made up for this by her
long gains on trick plays and end
runs. Oak Grove was particularly
strong on line plunges, her backs go
ing through Cony's line for repeated
gains; but her failure TO solve Gouy's
trick plays and break up the end runs
lost Oak Grove the game.
Crouch. Oak Groves right half
back. was. especially good on both
defense and offense. He broke through
the line, time and again, taekling the
cony runner for a loss, often of and
10 yards. In carrying the ball, he
went through Cony's line for many n
gain, often making several yards, with
three or four Cony men hanging to
him.
For Cony, Babbit, who replaced
Slosberg, in the first period, deserves
mention for his 5oyard run, around
right end for a touchdown and his
all-round. good PLAYING. If Rabbit
continues to play this kind of a game,
he win greatly strengthen the team.
Turner, a new player, is also worthy
eof mention because of his many
tackles, often when a miss would have
meant n touchdown.

distance. Wyman, on an end run, car

History of Our Flag.

The history of our flag is OF
exceeding interest. and brings
back to us throns of sacred and
thrilling associations.
The banner of 81 Andrew was
blue charged with q white cross,
like the y, and was used in
Scotland as the 18th century.
It was not till Ireland was
made a part of Great Britain, the
present flag was completed.
On the II of June 1916 it was
RESOLVED BY Congress, THAT the
13 United States be 13 stripes.
alternate red and white. and that
the Union be 10 white stars in the
blue field. this resolution was
maid public September 8, 1876. :.
In 1894, there having been two
more new states added 10 the
Union, il was voted that the
stripes and stars be L. in number.
and the flag thus enlarged was
burne thourgh the contest of

NATIONAL TAG DAY
viii Be Observed, Tuesday, Nov 5, by
the Salvation Army.

The local Salvation Army with the
other branches of the Army all over
the country will observe, Tuesday
Nov 3, as a National Tag day, for the
purpose of raising funds for the es-
adjustment of training colleges for
carrying out his ideals of aiding hu-
manity.
For the present need the promoters
of this scheme are asking for $55000O.
There are a good many men, single
handed who could well give the entire
sum required. However, this is not
the plan, for General Booth labored
for and with the poor and less fortu-
nate, and consequently it is felt that
this class will desire TO contribute;
hence the National Tag Day has been
arranged for Tuesday, Nov. 5. when
100000 people will be asked to give
10 cents each. The balance viii be
made UP by larger sums.
Commander Miss Booth. who is al
the head of The Salvation Army in the
United States. is specially gratified
with the wide and generous support
that is being given to the project.
