Lumber and Comment

For about four months the
good people Of Parma have been
enjoying the song Of "Wnen this
cruel wsr il over sung by the
trio OF Parma's lumber yards
(separately). During that time
the fame that Parma acquired
by virtue of selling lumber at
reasonabie prices travelled lar
and wide over Idaho and Ore

Nampa and Npuntainhomp and
much mInber WAS disposed of.
In fact. every other rush tele-
gram that was sent ont WAS for
another car pf lumber. lis diff
ferent now. Uncle Sam will
again transmit orders for lum
ber, ana the oloated relee raph
monopoly will lose one of it's
greatest sources OF revenue at
Parma. We never did like mo-
nopolies anyway. Fred PIatt
has quit talking about the high
cost of living and is wearing the
smile that won't come off. And
it's all because there are only
two lumber yards in Parma now.
And during all that time those
three lumber ards didn't spend
a cent in telling the people that
they had lumber for sale cheap.
The only advertising they had
along those lines was what the
Parma Herald gave them free;
and they haven't even come
around to thank us for it. We
believe We sold lots of lumber for
them, but somehow they don't

Georgia Insists
Game Be Played

ATHENS, GA, Nov. 11.-Professor
Sanford, physical director at Georgia.
has given out a statement to the
effect that the contract between
Georgia and Tech does not specify
that Saturdays football game shall
be played al Grant Field, and Geor-
gia insists that it must be played on
neutral grounds as heretofore, or that
a contract be entered into at once
that will provide for one game in
Atlanta one year on Grant Field and
another in Athens the next year on
Sanford Field.
1t is maintained by the Georgia au-
thOrities that ii is not only in fair
ness to the Georgia team that the
game be played on neutral grounds,
but that 1t is due the public that the
greatest game of the season be played
where the best accommo da lions are
afforded
The athletic authorities here have
taken a stand that the game is to be
played on Ponce DeLeon or not at
ALL and If Tech does not concede the
neutrality. Atlanta will surely lose
the Georgia Tech game for at least
every other year.

most useful coachers the Southern
League ever enjoyed.
"Parson" Perryman played last year

ably recommended by Lou Castro

He lost one more game than he won
in pitching, but we understand that it
wasn't his fault. His batting is not
exactly heavy, his 1918 mark being
about his own weight, 1853. He is n
tall, rangy chap, with fine curve ball
and plenty Of speed. He is studying
for the ministry, is in earnest about
it, and pitches as ConsCientiously as
he studies
Browning was drafted from San
Antonio, in the Texas League, where
he won seventeen and lost fifteen
games last year with a club that ran
