But five forward passes were tried
during the contest. OF these but one was
successful. Toward the end of the con-
test Business threw the pass wildly in
an effort to get a tie out of the battle.
Johnny Saxon, CentraPs midget end,
played his man to a standstill through
out the contest. He was consistent per-
former all the way through and earn
ed praise for his work.
More first downs were gained yester-
day than in any Of the other contests
for the school title. Play was fast at
all times. and the runners got through
well enough in midf1eld work. When
than the 3-yard mark the defense
t:shtened up and yards gained were
few.
Tech 30 far has something on all OF
the others when 1t comes to successfully
forward passing for necessary yards.
Business failed signally to make the
passes good. while Central rested in the
knowledge that 1t had no players to
put on either end of the pass. The
opportunity missed In the Tech game,
when the forward passes from the
Manual Trainers were dropped. proved
CentraPs salvation yesterday, profit

Macdonald was alert enough to catch
passes which he missed the week before.
NoKenny. Of Central, seems to have
found himself and proved yesterday
that he IS to be reckoned as one Of the
best Of the line smashers- His work
yesterday was better In every way than
that Of the week before.
Centrafs team seemed to be weakened
In no way by the loss of Ochstadt. The
eleven played more smoothly than at
any other time this season, and showed
merked improvement on offense.
That first score goes q long way to-
ward deciding a battle. After Central
scored Business seemed unable to make
much headway. For the greater part
OF the game the contest was waged in
midfeld. Punting was seldom re-
OF downs many times.
Tech seems to have the title in its
grasp, now that Central and Business
are disposed Of. The only way for a
tie contest to be staged is to find Tech
losing one of its battles and to soc Cen
tral come through with wins
Business Is bitterly disappointed to
day as a win over Central was conf
'oenuy hooked Tor. Central, however,
sprung surprise and kept Business
from winning. A win for the Steno-
graphers would have been the first ever
recorded In football for Business.
Ray Wise's failure to boot the ball out
into the field cost his team the victory
Being forced to kick from behind the
posts 1t was a question of either kick

Of the posts or taking chance on SAIL
ing one through the bars. The chance
failed.
Perry Dowrfck made his appearance
for Business for the first time this
season. Macdonald. the Business left

time this season. For Central, Hill. D.

that ligaments were torn in his shoul-

injury

two first downs. Central made six first

who live southeast of Wa-Keeney.
The bride is a graduate of Trego
county High school and has taught
for several years in Trego county.
She is the eldest daughter and is
widely known throughout this coun-
ty. She is a most estimable and wor-
thy young woman and has the high
est esteem and respect of all who
know her.
The groom is too well known to our
readers to need an Introduction hav-
ing spent large share of his life in
Trego county. Joe as he is best
known is young railroad man of
marked ability and the steady rise in
his chosen vocation to that of the re-
sponsible position of train despatch
er at Sharon Springs, bespeaks indus
try and steady application, which in
turn bespeak the character of the
man. He has only been an employee
in the Union Pacific railway company
about ten years and has worked to
the front very rapidly. He is steady,
honest and upright and his unfailing
good nature has won him host of
warm friends
Rev. Allison of this city performed
the ceremony in the presence of a.
bout fifty relatives and friends after
which a sumptious wedding supper
was served.
The bride was very beautifully
gowned in white crepe de chine and
made charming picture. The groom
was in the conventional black.

Annual Meeting of the Farmers Insti-.
tute at Wa-keeney

The annual meeting of the Farm
ers' Institute to be held in Wa-Kee-
ney, on November Hip, 1914, is one
of the most important of the wear.
and every farmer should make use of
the opportunity it offers for the edu-
cation of himself and his family.
Everyone now agrees that there is no
other business that requires more
thought and study than that ofopera-
ting the farm and that the man who
is making the greatest success is he
who takes advantage of the modern
methods and the latest applications
of science to everyday farm practice.
This is likewise true in management
of household affairs.
Along with education must come
enthusiasm for farming and the farm
life, neighborhood Cooperation and
community pride, If there is to be an
all around advancement. The live
farmers institute is one of the great
est improvement organizations i'm
Kansas. There are now almost five
hundred locals within the state. The
annual meeting of the Farmers In
stitute should be the rallying dav
day for all farmers of this community.
Tie people of the town will find it
well worth while TO attend also. Do
not forget the date or the. place.
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1914-11-07

The Farmers Institute is for every
body. In many counties the build
ings will hardly contain the people,
so great is the enthusiasm, hut it
seems an uphill job to awaken the
people here TO real interest. Are
we so behind the others? The speak
ers sent by our experiment station
are all well posted on all the condi-
tions that pertain TO our territory
and can give many pointers on the
different topics The local speakers
are selected as near as may be from
among our best farmers. If you
have any good things come and tell
them, if you have any choice pro-
ducts bring them. Urge the boys and
girls to engage in the contests. Any
thing to make the farming better,
the farms more productive, the
farmers more prosperous.
1t is by getting together that we
may be of help to each other Ex-
change of ideas is for the farmers,
like the old adage, "a change of pas
ture to make fat cattle.''
