ROUGH FOOT BAIL
AT MARION HIGH

JASPER, Jan. 26. Rough football
is being INDUCED in by students of
Marion High School. Like all games
between students in college with
one another, a considerable more
amount of venom was INDUCED in
.than was necessary for the playing of
the great college game. AS result,
injuries are numerous, and several
players received some very severe in
juries. Sunday William Foster had
to be taken to his home near Tracy
City on account of injuries to his head
received in the game. A large a.
mount of kicking, biting and body
blows delivered by stealth was indulg-
ed in by the players. The public at
large are opposed to the game, unless
played in a more scientific and mild
er manner.

Dear readers, OLD 1918 has left us.
1t always makes me feel rather sad to
say goodbye to an old year, even if it
hasn't treated me particularly well,
for it leaves me year older. But
1918 was very good to me, saving me
deep sorrow and bringing me happi-
ness, so l parted with it most regret
fully. Nineteen and thirteen made
its mistakes, of course, but on the
whole, it was a wonderful year. 1t
was very generous year in the mat
ter of giving. Its known benefactions
are estimated at $64, 900. 600 and when
TO this enormous sum is added, if we
could add it, the vast amount of
money given privately, unknown per-
haps except to the donor and recipi-
emit, we might as we'll say that the
year has shown that the spirit of
philanthropy is rapidly growing
among us. More and more is the idea
spreading among our wealthy class
that the possessor of large fortune is
merely steward to dispense it wisely
for the good of others Then in ma
terial way, 1918 was a great year.
The total value of all farm products
shows an increase of $500, 600, 900 over
1912, which looks good, doesn't it. l
haven't the figures with regard to 9TH
er increase, but they can be shown all
along the line. We are the richest
country in the world. sOur total
wealth Is twice that of Germany or
France. We excel in the production
of corn, wheat, oats, tobacco. cotton,
petroleum, pig iron, steel and copper.
We lead all other nations. No where
else is labor paid SO we'll as with us
and no where is the standard of living
so high as in the land of the free and
the home of the brave.
To Offset this somewhat, l must con-
TESS that the cost of keeping mp that
self-same high standard constitutes one
of our most serious problems, but we
have been promised better things and
we live in hope.
VIM. Loach and wife visited John
Green Tinker Sunday.
John Wooten has been very sick, but
is reported better at this writing.
Saw mills are getting plentiful
around Higdon. At work time you
can hear seven whistles.
Jim West and Will Hollen will bring
another saw mill to this place next
week. They will set it on Mr.. Vests
place.
We saw Buster Cloud Sunday with
his hat set on one side of his head.
We said "Good morning, Buster. -
"Mr. Cloud" please" was his an
swer, 81 am the father of fine girl,
sir" and poor old John Green Tinker,
the father-in-law of Mr.. Cloud. just
stepped in and said that be had been
out behind the house with his head
poked in barrel, hollering, "Grand-
pa" so as to hear how the echo
sounded, and E. d. Lancaster, the
great grandfather, is improving won
derfully. but his whiskers don't show
that he is so old as that. Mother and
baby are getting along fine. Mr.. Cloud
the father of the little girl, is improv-
ing in his appetite, and will soon be
able to go back to his job at the Lock
