PEORIA COMMENTS
ON SOCIALS' LOSS

The Peoria Social Athletic club foot
ball eleven ran up against a real foot
ball team Sunday at Rock Island in
the Independents of that city. and
were crushed in defeat, % to O.
The Socials never had a chance
from the time the opening whistle
sounded up to the final second OF play
Not only did Rock Island present a
heavy lineup. but despite their beef
the Independents proved fast. Both
the old style play and the new were
worked with success by the Islanders.
The Socials were continually on the
defensive. but, sad to relate, their de-
Tense proved woefully weak.-Peoria

Having met with their first defeat
of the season, the Social football team
Sunday night returned from Rock Is
land with the short end of a % to 0
score as their portion of the football
activities of the day in the Missis-
sippi river city.
Too heavy" was the terse eXplana-
tion Of the defeat, simmered down
from the various accounts of the ath-
letes who took part in the game. The
Rock Island center five of scrimmage
line averaged better than 200 pounds
. TO the man, and their entire team was
we'll above the $50 mark, according to
Manager Harrison of the Socials, who
accompanied the team on the trip.
Not only was Rock Island heavy
and capable of presenting an impen-
etratable defense, but the up-river
eleven possessed a set of speedy backs,
which tore repeated holes through
and around the Social line for steady
gains which gave them their total OF
I four touchdowns - Peoria Herald.

t;on Its influence in not only acuveiy
urging the adoption of modern eouca-

creating the progressive rural spirit IS
the greatest influence that can DC
hronoht to bear in the interest OF I'M
nroved schools and better school sur
ronnd,ngs in very many rural commu-
mites 1t is therefore under q certain
obligation to use that influence as BEST
It can for the community.
The grange should see to 1t that
teacher is employed. especially In the
strictly rural districts. who is in sym
na+bv with farm interests. who has
good knowledge Of at least the rudl-
ments of agriculture and who also mas
some knowledge of the work that the
farmers children are supposed to 90 IN
later life and who will cooperate WIFI
the grange in the general interests OF
the community A course of study
that does not include instruction In
agriculture and the so called nature
studies is not the course OF study de-
handed by the times.
MANY teachers have not had the
training which will enable them to I'M
mart instruction even in the most rud1
mentary branches of agriculture. but
the grange can greatly assist such
teachers by securing practical agricul
tural talks for the school and by rem
dering the required assistance in many
ways that will tend to make her work
more efficient. The grange should also
have a standard for hygienic condi
tons. pleasant environment and. above
all, should seek to inculcate happy
spirit of cooperation among teacher
pupils and the community generally
In a score of ways it can determine the
character of the instruction given. and
so. in a measure at least. the charac
ter Of the pupils who attend upon that
instruction. and in so doing Will help
to determine the character OF the com
munity in which the school exists.
This is true. The kind of school q
community has or may have depends
on the people of that community. The
community ideal will determine this
matter in the last analysis. What .
district wants. and wants hard. is pre-
cisely what that district is sure to have
sooner or later. The standard Of the
school will be just as high, and In ev.
cry respect. as the combined wisdom
Of Patrons and teacher makes it.
hence an increasing interest must cen
ter in the affairs of the school, and tc
promote this interest is the paramount
duty Of the grange and every member
Of it.

Spence Master.
Oregon is one of the few states that
hold their annual meetings early in the
year. While Oregon is one of the
smaller grange states. it is one of the
most active and efficient. Twenty mine
counties are now organized, with 18s
oranges in good standing. The total
membership is 1882, and the total Of
moneys received the past year was
$1,000. National Master Wilson was
present and made a ringing grange
speech. It is the first time that he has
visited any Of the far western state
oranges while in session.
Among the resolutions considered by
the state grange the following are
most Important: Tavoring the use Of
soldiers from the regular army in the
protection Of the national forests: IA.
voring state Industrial school for
girls and the Introduction of the study
of domestic science in the public
schools: favoring the loaning of United
States postal deposit money to holders
Of real estate at per cent on half
the appraised value of the land. The
committee on legislation reported In
favor Of abolishing the state senate,
and this resolution brought out con-
siderable discussion. but when the vote
was taken only eleven votes in opposi-
ton to the proposition appeared. Just
what would happen IL the oranges OF
the eastern states should get like
idea into their heads can be well
imagined But the idea seems to be
very popular In Oregon. An amend
ment 20 the bylaws was proposed to
the effect that the referendum privi-
lege should be granted to the members
of the Order on actions Of the state
grange on any measure that might
come before It. It was discussed at
great length and was finally adopted.
The sixth degree was conferred on
class Of 118 candidates. No officers
were elected this year but one member
Of the executive committee, g. Z.
Shaw. The next annual meeting win
be held at Monmouth, Ore.

Baldy. He did look funny. II was
the big monkey event of the year.
Susan was all a-futter in a new silk
gown, Bulgarian style. Baldy had on
a new light gray suit, patent leather
shoes and red socks. He was so taken
with his new ralment that he didn't
pay any attention to the hat at first.
A big crowd was watching the pa
rade, when Baldy took off the lid to
wave welcome. AS he replaced it he
caught the first sight Of the bow be-
hind. He gave Susan wallop with

It was all off. The other monks be-
came frightened and climbed into

A new black hat has been ordered
for Baldy and the bow will be on the
side.

Floating factories have become an
important part of the development
Of the forest resources Of India. In
certain parts of the country forests
are only accessible through the water
courses, and the great expense of
erecting land plants for the utilization
of the lumber resources makes such
course impracticable. Therefore
sawmills and other manufacturing
establishments are built on floating
platforms and moved up the streams
as they are needed
After the lumber is prepared in a
Bawmill it can be packed in a way
chat makes transportation much more
economical than any system Of log
ging. Plants for the preparation of
tannin extracts have also been estab-
lish in this manner. The plants are
built on fiat boats, 200 feet long, by
az feet wide, capable Of carrying a
load of 470 tons.

no avail. The doctors told me / would

a woman, hated the idea of that. l
was told by q friend that the Cuticura
Remedies would do me good. This
spring l purchased two boxes of Cut-
cura Ointment and one cake Of Cuti-
cura Soap. After using one box Of
Cuticura Ointment 1 considered the
cure permanent, but continued to use
1t to make sure and used about one
half the other box. Now l am entirely
well. I also used the Cuticura Soap.
"The disease began on the back Of
my head, taking the form Of ring
worm, only more severe, rising to a
thick, rough scale that would come OF
when soaked with oil or warm water,
bringing few hairs each time, but IN
a few days would form again, larger
each time, and spreading until the en-
tire back Of the head was covered with
the scale. This was accompanied by
a terrible itching and burning sensa-
tion. Now my head is completely well
and my hair growing nicely" (Signed)

Breathed Life Into Child

Breathing new life into an infant,
young ambulance physician, DR..
Benedict Willis, attached to the Belle
vue hospital in New York city, saved
an apparently dead new born baby
the other day. The surgeon placed
his lips close to those Of the baby and
forced his own breath for 40 minutes
into and out of the lungs of the infant.
When DR.. Willis reached the house,
that of man named Moca, the baby
boy, less than an hour old, was cold
and blue, and several women there
told him the infant was dead. He
thought so himself, he said, but new
ertheless started the work of resusci-
tation Not until he had worked for
40 minutes, using hot water and NOV
ing the arms, did the spark Of life
manifest its return. Then the little
body began to grow warm and soon
there was a lusty cry This brought
Joy to the mother. The boy was her
first born. She had recovered quickly
