ANSON
Says His Old Team Could
Have Beaten The Athletics

Washington, Oct. 15-Too much is
being made of the worlds champions,
the Philadelphia Athletics, in the opin-
ion of Adrain C. Anson, who declared
today that his old Chicago pennant
winning team of a quarter of CEN
tury ago could easily have defeated
the present title holders. Pop" An
son was captain of the Chicago aggre-
cation in the eighties when that
team won six pennants
"The Athletics are a fine playing
aggregation" the veteran acknowl-
edged, "but if l had my old Chicago
team with the famous stonewall in
field l could beat them by a good
margin. Could they hit such pitch
ers as Bender and Plank? Sure they
could! None of the pitchers of today
can equal such men as Clarkson,
Goldsmith, Larry Cochran and Charlie
Ferguson
Former Captain Anson likewise de-
clined to acknowledge that such field
ers as Cobb or Speaker could be
placed in the same class with Bill
Lang, and he challenged the produc'
ton of any present day catchers the
equal of Buck Ewing and Mike Kel

There came near being an amalga-

that sanctuary. He was directed,
but whether through his own error
or that of the informant ne landed
at st. Luke's Lutheran about a
square away from Grace church. He
proceeded to a little room he sup
posed to be the sacristy to don his

Rev. Paul Roller, pastor of st. Luke's,
made his appearance.
"Why, you look like minister" !"

Coach Says Kenyon Will Be
Very Easy To Defeat

Just now it looks as If Kenyon
will be easy sailing" said Coach
Snyder yesterday afternoon when
asked his opinion concerning the
prospects for victory Saturday. "The
team surprised me at Columbus last
week, and if it puts up any sort of
game with Kenyon we should win
in a walkaway."
Greatly encouraged by the near vic
tory at Columbus, Reserve varsity is
buckling down to hard work this week
and intends showing Clevelanders a
real article of football.
Hard drilling in offensive play will
be on tap the next three afternoons
The defensive work against the heavy
State team was stone wall in charac'
ter and the coaches are more than sat
isfied with the progress of the line
men.
OF the varsity men damaged in the
State game Tubby Roe is the worst
sufferer. The assaults of the heavy
state backfield were directed for the
most part against him, and as result
he carried many bruises and bumps
Harsh and Sheldon, who had Gless
man and Boughton against them, two
of States heaviest and strongest play
ers, are also bruised. None of the
men, however, is likely to be KEEP
from playing against Kenyon Satur

An astonishing record OF serious blood
poisoning is daily brought to our attention.
And most IL not all these startling
calamities could be averted were the blood
primed, toned and purified in advance by
that wonderful remedy known everywhere
as S. s. s. Few people realize how quickly
the system becomes infected with the acids
and ferments from undigested food, con-
stipatlon' and inactive kidneys.
The symptoms are fever, thirst, excit-
ability, dry skin followed by rash, and
many indications wrongly diagnosed as
Ptomaine poisoning. This condition is al.
most universal in all climates and is
quickly overcome by the action Of s. s. s.
The medicinal properties of s. s. s. are
relatively just as esential to well balanced
health as are the nutritive properties OF
the meats, grains, fats and sugars of our
daily food And II you will bear this fact
In mind and get your blood under the
dominating influence of s. S. 8. you will
not only drive out those impurities that
cause Rheumatism, Catarrh, Eczema, Pim-
pies, Bois and thin anemic blood, but you
will feel anew the thrill OF health that
can come only from a purified blood stream.

your health to make an extra profit. s..

THE USUAL
ELECTION.
Proclamation viii Not Be
Issued This Year
By Sheriff And Prosecutor
Of The County
According To A Ruling By
Attorney General
A Copy Of Which Is Received
By Officials Here
Other Items OF Interest From
The Court House

Sheriffs and prosecutors of Ohio
counties have no authority to issue
election proclamations this year, ac-
cording to the copy of finding OF
Attorney General T. S. Hogan, re-
ceived by the local county officials
Tuesday.
The attorney general was asked by
some of he states county officials,
recently, whether it would be imper-
ative this year-this being an odd
numbered year to print and adyer-
tise the coming elections.
In his construction of Sections 1921
to 1927 of the Ohio Code, Attorney
General Hogan interprets the law to
bear upon elections held in even num-
bered years, and that in those years
formal proclamation of elections shall
be promulgated by the sheriff and
prosecuting attorney, as required by
law, least fifteen days before the.
date for holding such elections.
He holds also that where the vote
is to be taken upon constitutional
amendments, such proclamation only
needs to give notice to voters of their
opportunity to vote, and does not need
to recite anything except the notice.

The land already has twenty-five tons
of sagebrush an acre, and can be

Is worth $500. The sagebrush Is
worth more than the alfalfa. Yet
the settlers are paying SO an acre

"The sagebrush Is worth more than

study of and grow some two or three
crops and several varieties OF flow

b. For the upper grades have in
dividual gardens These gardens
may be in size from feet square
to 1Ox100 feet depending upon the
amount OF space at hand.
C. Stake each garden at all cor
ners leaving room for paths, at least
two feet wide, running each way be-
tween the gardens. This permits the
pupil to work from all sides OF the
garden and do most of the work from
the path.
d. Grow both flowers and vege-
tables giving the pupil his choice OF
part of the things to be grown.
Above all grow common things. The
pupil will be more interested I'm what
grows about him than dn what Is
grown in Japan or India.
e. Have the garden plowed and
narrowed and put in shape before
starting the pupil to work.
t. Preparatory to sending the pupil
into the garden have each pupil draw
a plat of the entire garden, walks
and all and number each individual
garden. Also have each pupil draw
plan of his own garden showing
the planting plan for the crops to
be planted.

brought to a most satisfactory close
with a garden exhibit. Have each
child prepare his own display for the
exhibit.
As an illustration to bring the mat
ter more clearly to the readers uni

exhibit comes rather early and the
produce ready for exhibit consisted
