We don't have TO travel to foreign
shores.
In scarce OF the beauties in art.
We now have them brought within
reach of our doors.
In which our local artists have part.
How often I've wondered why people

And travel TO far distant lands;
While we have the richest of beauty
at home,
The work Of our own peoples hands.
II seems strange TO me. and to others,
I'm sure.
That this was not thought of before
What wonderful things we now can
procure.
That We only found out since the
war.
] am sure we all feel that God knows
what is best.
And that we have lesson to learn
And now that poor Europe with war
is oppressed.
Let US spend here al home what we
earn.
Our folks can compete with the best

We can paint, we can write. NE eau

WORLDS RECORD

The third week of the Champion Bill

prises. The worlds record average of
40 for li.l balk-linc, held by Willie
Hoppe. was exceeded by two players ot
the league
Harry Cline made an average OF 30 at
Poughkecpsie, y. Y., against Koii va.
mada while George sutton hung up a
4i average at Washington. D. c., with
Jake Schaefer rs his opponent.
The average made by Cline and Sut-
ton are all the more wonderful for the
fact they are compelled TO play on
strange tables every night and under
changing conditions.
Owing TO the players being keyed zap
TO a high pitch by playing every night
the billiard fans can look forward u
more records before the end of the long

should trim the L. S. Marines at Union
street grounds Saturday. Three nights
this week Coach Mitchell has been
sending his men through the ups" and
downs" Of the game. The team is
practicing more this season than ever
before. The players arc keen with
interest and each practice night sees
all the squad out. This is unusual.

keeping this city on the football map
are Captain Kidd. Warburton. Moore.

Elicit. Snitcher, Ray. Tucker, Smith,
Mccall. Walls and Croft.
Their heavy practice this week is
not the least bit out or order, for in
the l.. 5. Marines they meet the hard
est team of the East. The Marines
have won all games played this sea-
san. namely, four. Last season they
made the locals bite the dust and
swallow three touchdowns. While
they are coming here Saturday expect
ing to win. the locals guarantee they
won't 80 under by such a score as be-
fore. in fact Captain Kidd says his
men will win. Therefore. words can
not frame the victory. Union Field
will have to produce that.
Besides this battle, Parkside and
Vandever will engage in contest.
These teams are among the asplrants
