THIS IS A WEEK
OF SELF DENIAL"
FOR CHARITY SAKE
Women of the City Are Requested to
Observe This if They Wish
to Help Poor.

With the $500 realized by tho
Gem theater benefit and the $500
secured by the sale of tags yesterday
the Associated Charities have a fund
that should encourage the good
ladies of the association in their
laudable efforts in collecting money
TO be used in relieving the distress
Of many worthy families Of this city.
the heads of whom have no means
at present Of providing the necessi
ties of life to their dear ones, be-
cause of the shutting down of one
or two of the big mills.
A well known young married lady
last evening telephoned The Bulle-
tin that she thought it a good idea
to have as many families of the city,
who could care for one or two chill
dren of the unemployed for a week
or two at q time, in order to give
the parents an opportunity to place
themselves in better condition to
care for them later. This lady said
she would be willing to care for
two children in this way.
Mrs. w. N. Butler, president of
the Associated Charities makes the
announcement that this week has
been set aside as Self Denial"
week. Every woman in the city is
requested by the Associated Chari-
ties to deny herself some luxury
that she has been accustomed to, or
that she may anticipate, the money
thus saved to be made a thanksgiv-
ing offering to the poor.
This will show true Christian
spirit Of charity and will be the
means of adding considerable to the
fund for the good work now being
accomplished.

In an interesting game yesterday
afternoon at Bridgeview Park CoaCh
Ryan's football proteges defeated
the Harrisburg team 26 to Z thus
keeping for themselves without
question the title of Southern Hi
nCis champions.
The game was without doubt the
best seen on the homo grounds this
season. The local team easily re.
won their defeat by the visitors
earlier in the season by showing
themselves superior in every feature
of the game which goes to shaw that
if Cairo's team had been in good
shape in the former game the score
would have been different. How
ever lhe harrisburg team must be
given credit for being a well coached
team with several members who bid
fair for positions on the all-star
team. The manner in which the
Harrisburg team conducted them
selves under defeat was such that
it should command the respect of
every lover of clean athletics.
The game was called at 2 o'clock
with Harrisburg kicking off to
Cairo. The local team held the WIS.,

of line bucks brought the ball
within seven yards of the goal from
which point they scored by a for
