A DISGRACE CONTEMPLATED

There is talk in Texas of destroying that historic battle
ground, the Alamo. There is not a spot in the United States
more completely consecrated to human bravery tnan TINS spot Of
ground where 100 Americans laid down their lives rather than
desert their colors and live.
When the Greeks at Thermopylae held back the Persian army
for three days but one man escaped to tell the tale. This was con-
sidered the high water mark of human courage and the pens OF
historians and poets loved to dwell upon that page Of the world
history.
But it remained for the state of Texas to set a higher mark
when the last man died in his tracks at the battle of the Alamo.
Over the ashes of this heroic band a monument has been rear
ed bearing this classic inscription:
"Thermopylae had its messenger of defeat, the Alamo had
none."
Texas will demonstrate to the world that it's stock has de-
generated if it allows this hallowed battle ground to be obiterated.

WHY IS THIS?

Just now the Appeal is publishing items from it's old files as
a sort of curiosity. A news item published December 2, 1879, tells
that 10000 pounds Of trout were caught from the Truckee river
at Wadsworth and sold for a bit a pound.
Now the Appeal would like to ask some n who might posi-
bly, know, why it is that thirty-three years later trout cost 30 cents
a pound?

Twas in the blossomtime, they say,
That she went singing down the way;
Love sat and piped a rondelay,
But she went, laughing, by.
Love called. Twas In the dew-sweet
morning,
Just as the tender day was downing
She passed him by, in laughter scorn-

And made him no reply.
But when the even hour was come =
She passed again, and through the
gloom
A red rose at his feet.
And would have gone her way again,
But love cried out in bitter pain,
And merrfly, in sweet disdain,
She laughed to hear him greet.
But when she found him wounded
sore,
She stopped and kissed him Ger and

Osteopathy Sometimes Misunderstood
Herald of Osteopathy

| Almost twenty years ago, osteo-
pathy a, new school of healing fully
recognizing the healing power of Ma
| ture, sprang up in the United States.
It's physicians. while taking into ac-
count other established causes of dis
| ease, such as exposure, improper feed
ling and abuse of function, have learned
that perversion Of structure-such as
slight displacement of bones and other
tissues, contractured muscles, thick
ened ligaments are fruitful sources of
bodily ills. Very often these LESSONS,
by their weakening effect upon certain
tissues, act as a predisposing cause in
cases that are usually attributed to
germs. It is also true in many cases
that the pressure effects of misplaced
tissues maintain diseases that are al
ready present, that Is, prevent recoV-
cry. This, in a measure, accounts for
the large number Of chronic invalids
in the world.
Having this idea of the cause Of
disease it follows as a natural conse-
quence that osteopaths in their treat
meat seek to correct mispaacenents,
TO remove the pressure, to get the
body in perfect adjustment in order
that Nature may effect a cure. Osteo-
patty is both a science and an art.
OSteopath1c physicians hrst make
careful examination to determine what
is wrong, then employ the highest
technical skill to correct it. In doing
this they neglect no rational, sanitary,
hygenic or dtetetic aid.
The INSTRUMENTATION concerning os-
teopathy is being replaced by a more
accurate knowledge. The late ency-
cIopedias contain proper definitions and
descriptions of the science. The news
papers and best literary magazines,
with increasing frequency, are placing
the true story Of osteopathy before
their readers. But the most effective
a gency for the dissemination of cor
rect information about osteopathy is
the profession itself-that large army
of trained and educated men and wo-
men, more than five thousand strong,
who, in the cities, towns and villages
of the country, are daily demonstrat-
ing the benefcience and potency Of the
science in the battle with disease.
With all these avenues of informa-
ton open the time is almost at hand |
when IT will be a reproach to any |
one not TO understand something at !
least of the theories of osteopathys !

CFIIVALRY


stances that prove the poem true; that
often when man through fear and
weakness has dropped the fight for
right that women have taken it UP
and have gone on to victory. And
though Kipling may have written this
poem to prove women's infertority he
proves the opposite when he says:
"And to serve that single issue, lest
the generation fafl.
The female of the species must be
deadlier than the male.
She who faces death by torture, for
each life beneath her breast,
May not deal in doubt or pity, must
not swerve for fact or Jest,
These be purely male diversions, not
IN these her honor dwells
She. the other law we live by, is that
law and nothing else
And Hall Ca1ne in his answer to
Ktp1ing sums It all UP when he says:
For behold without your portals
stands the mother of the man.
Yes, I sometimes think that the
great things of life have for their
dation-M otherhood."
Susan Jane, If you really feel that
way, why let these f1ippant sayings Of
thoughtless men annoy you? But, you
have expressed a great truth. You
remember in that great work The
Light of Asia, a work far above any
thing that Kipling ever did or ever can
write, when Buddha came suffering
and sorrowtng to Sujata, she prepared
his food and gave him comfort and
strength and it was her wisdom that
made Buddha exclaim: Thou teachesr
them who teach, wiser than wisdom In
thy simple lore: thou who hast wor-
shipped me, I worship thee"
Most of the great things that have
been accomplished have to some extent
depended on woman's help. Take, for
instance, Edison; his wife has been
his shield from annoyance; has seen
that his meals were prepared and
eaten, when he was so engrossed with
his work that he forgot to eat. You
spoke Of that Persian proverb and
seemed quite angry over IL. The Per-
slams seemed to blame women for all
their troubles.
at think 1t was a Persian king.
Who used to say, that evermore;
In human life each evil thing,
Comes Of the sex that men adore;
: In brief, that nothing ere befeIl,
To harm or grieve our hopeless
race,
But If, you probe the matter well,
You'll find g. woman In the case"
Thus you see, giving woman credit |

t was through woman's charms that /
samson lost his eyes and hair David /

Confucius his place at court. But this |

time since we had a visit, so brought

Il am glad OF that for I have been
reading some old books and they set

Don't they?"
Ia though women are beneath them,

THAT proNerb, Sg1san Jane, is an
ancfeut Persian proverb, and I think

quently thrown for losses. East Side
was outweighed and outclassed. A
kicking game might have saved the
Down Neckers the humiliation of
having such a big total piled up
against them. but forward passes and
futile line bucks were attempted IN
the shadow of their own goal posts,
and usually, after much wasted effort
to advance the ball, the kick tried on
the last down was a miserable affair
that rolled about twenty yards.
Barringer used a varied line OF at

Captain Andrew Dempsey scored
three touchdowns and kicked an
equal number of goals from touch
downs. The second of his touchdowns
resulted after a seventy-yard dash

Barringer leader straight-armed his
way past trio of East SIDE tacklers
and loped down the field for the score.
Barringer was forced to kick but

and Weingartner kicked. Dempsey
brought the ball back twenty yards
on the return. Plunges by Schneider
and Seller advanced the leather 10 the

sey carried it over for the initial
score. The try for the goal proved
successful. Dempsey kicked to Laz-
ron. East Side found the RIDGE street
line impregnable. and kicked for a
distance Of twenty yards. Barringer's
1orWard pass on the final down was
incomplete. and East Side took the
ball and booted It. after two fruitiess
tries at the Blue and White line. The
ball rolled to Barrlnger's thirtv-yard
