PROS
PECTS UNCERTAIN.

The problem at present confront.
ing the coaches is, how to round out
winning combination with insuf.
lcient scrimmage practice. Only
twice have two full elevens been
available, and during the past week
less than twenty men have reported
at Davis Field Most of these are
in excellent physical condition and
high spirits, earnest in their efforts
to make the team a winner and are
unusually willing workers. But the
problem is, how to give them enough
work. This week, it is hoped, will
bring about some changes for the
bette, in preparation for the game
with st. Louis. A strenuous effort
is being made to pedsuade more
"huskies" to answer the summons to
battle. 1t is expected also that a
practice game with the college
scrubs" will be scheduled, to enable
the boys to discover their weakness
and strengthen their nerve.
The backfeld will be a good one
this season. With such men as Jes-
sup, Handley, Mahr, Smith, and Cap
tain Hughes Call of them fast, heady
players) the school can expect some
thing, at least, to happen from be-
hind the line Smith runs his team
like veteran of good many years
service. His forward passes are
speedy and accurate, and he is far
from being slouch when it comes
to carrying the ball. Handley, a new
has proved himself a good
line smasher, an excellent punter and
and an all-around valu-
able player
The ends, too, are we'll fortified.
Hodge, senior from Breckenridge,
ad Stoddard (who is also a candi-
date for quarterback have proved
themselves likely men for these posi-
tions. Both are good tacklers, and
have the football instinct, which is
valuable asset to any player, espec-
ALLY an end. Banghart and Way
have also been worked at end. The
former has shown himself capable
Of filling any position in which he is

rs lack of avoirdupois by his whirl-
wind speed and aggressiveness.
The line from tackle to tackle is
IN uncertain proposition. Muscott,

been used at center during the past
week, and is more than making good.
The big fellow is tremendous work

its $4,000 population, but Lee county.
with its 5000, Webster, with it's 6,000s
and Schley, with it's 5000 largely do
their purchasing here. 1t is not ur-
common on Saturday the great trad
ing day of the week, for several thous-
and customers to be in the city, secur-
ing supplies, while on every fair day
the popular shopping trains bring
many shoppers in from the country
and the smaller towns. Fortunately,
Americas enjoys excellent railroad fa-
cilities in all directions for the con-
venience of retail shoppers, trains
coming in from six directions at con
venient hours and leaving on schedules

great factors in the commercial pros
perity of the city and with the rapid
development of the surrounding
country in all directions that is now
in progress Americas is unquestion-
ably destined to become a more than
ever important retailing centre. The
competitive spirit is strong, leading
to the careful selection of stocks, to Is
critical study of the comunity's tastes
and profit reductions to as low
point as business judgment will per-
nit. Experience has shown that in all
lines goods can be purchased as cheap-
ly here as elsewhere and with as

She surveyed herself in the mir
'jr- to see if her attractions had van

put it, throw any bouquets at her

looking as overland that was pref
ty good-looking. ..

what do. you say to us in couple
of seats in the balcony for the Hid
den Princess tonight, and maybe a
little of the. chilled stuff afterWard? ?"
Eleanor flushed without and
thrilled within. Here was danger!
here was adventure! here was one of
the real terrors of the great city!
True, the terror was a nice-looking
boy with. slightly freckled face and
a turn-up nose and frank blue eyes
and humorous twist to his mouth;
true, also, there was not much gilt
and glitter to his temptation, but evil
IDENTIFY he was the lurking evil, and
she almost embraced him.
Sure said Eleanor; "cal for me
at the house, 321 Blank street, about
1880, and I'll be with you"
Cant come to 321," frowned the
Tempter; had a row with the land
lady there because 1 kept one of her
boarders out longer than she thought
1 ought to. If she saw me she
wouldn't let you go. Suppose you
meet me at the west gate of that lit
tie park two blocks from where you
ive?" -.
Park it is, Them Eleanor said,
delighted with the thought of playing
thus with fire. For she knew the
Tempter must be wonderfully fast
and dangerous if he feared to come
within sight even of her sensible, hk-
able landlady.
They were in the last seat in the
car when they started for the the
alter, and if the Tempter put his arm

stead of making him take his arm
away, she leaned back on it and
smiled at him. She even patted his
hand. 1t was hard to be expected of
Eleanor that she could be offended
at having an arm around her. In the
village, people went on straw rides
and sleigh rides and buggy rides and
picnics, and if your male escort didn't
hug you or kiss you, you considered
him rather a muff and wondered if
he didn't like you. Which. may be
very wrong-it all depends on the
point of view. ....,
1t was a warm. night, a delicious,
balmy June night, and after they
came out of the hot theater and aft
er they had had their ice cream they
wandered in the little park where
they had met. Eleanor knew it was
lmprudent, knew that it wasn't as
planned, but she had wandered in the
cemetery at home with many men,
and, besides was Adventure,
and had she not desired Adventure?
So she talked somewhat foolishly to
the Tempter, and she let him hold
her hand, and she let him put his arm
around her again, and she, even let
him kiss her. And then when she
knew that, under the magic of mid
summer and the moon and the witch
cry of the night and the gladness of
youth and the madness of love, all
her resolution was gone, and when
she was prepared to resist and yet
to surrender; when, in fact, she
found herself as weak as the weakest
of her sisters of whom she had read,
and, after all, only human being,
warm-blooded, impulsive girl who
was easy prey-why, just then the
Tempter drew forth his watch and
said:
"Girlie, it's II 6. M, and I've got to
beat it for nay downy if I'm going to
