ON SECOND TEAM
RESERVES FROM THE COLUMBIA
HIGH SCHOOL LOSE TWELVE
TO ELEVEN.

In an exciting game the Culleoka
school defeated the second or re.
serve team Of the Columbia High
School at Culleoka on Saturday. The
Culleoka boys outplayed their oppon-
ents in the field, but were short with
the stick, several of their runs com.
ing as the result of errors upon the
part Of the Columbia lads. The lat
ter were much larger and heavier
than the village boys and were handy
with the bat bat their work in the
field was rather on the bum. The
final score was twelve to eleven.
On Friday afternoon the Culleoka
boys went to Mccresville an played
the Beasley school team of that
place, losing the game by the score
of six to one.

Enforcing Yost Law,

West Virginia is soon to have the
chance OF seeing whether prohibition
prohibits as to the liquor business,
Many opposed to prohibition have con-
tended that regulation of the liquor
trade is more successful than attempt
ed prohibition Of it. Others hold an
opposite view
AS the question is solely state one,
enforcement of the Yost law will be
up to the state through its various
county officials mostly. While staEe
officials will take an important part
in its enforcement, yet the burden
will fall upon the county officials, the
prosecuting attorneys and court judges
as we'll as grand juries. 4Ga
While there may be city cooperation,
yet the city codes or charters gem
orally do not admit of ordinances pro-
viding for such severe punishment as
the state law provides for. AS this is
true city enforcement would result in
light sentences and really do harm.
, Governor Hatfield has emphasized
the fact that he intends to see that the
Yost law is enforced and no one uues-
tons his determination. 1t remains to

Wealth can be Accumulated only
by the earnings OF industry and the
savings of frugality. John Tyler.
Here are some ways that people
have saved successfully. Perhaps you
can adopt one of them yourself.
Save all coins Of a certain denom-
ination-pennies, nickels or dimes,
that come into your possession. Or
save every coin you receive bearing
certain date-1910 for instance.
Let the man who shaves himself put
away the price of a shave every time
ne does so; likewise when he shines
his own shoes, let the coin saved be-
come part of his permanent capital.
Whenever you make a purchase at
bargain price, save the difference
between that and the regular price.
IN that way bargain sales will have
real meaning to you. h
A certain young man gave himself
a note for $1,000, and made it payable
in four years. He took a certificate
OF deposit at the bank for $40 the

Some Adrica Irnheeded.

War in camp is scented by the Ex-
ponent on the eve OF the Democratic
county convention and the little bird
has evidently ehirped the fact that
the feeling is becoming bitter among
candidates and their Constituents.
The Exponent thinks 1t is foolish
for them or anyone else to say those"
mean things and 1t begs them not
to do it. Addressing itself to some
1t says in reference to man seeking
TO hold Office: You would not say
them to him, but you will about him
which is cowardly."
The advice may be wholesome, but
1t does not seem to be having much
effect. Some Of those candidates, es-
pectally the machine ones, are out to
win in any way and at any cost. They
do not mind resorting to villtfcation
and trickery and they are not going
to do otherwise until they are sure
Of the goal.

The Ne,r En-

Monday began the final week of
the licensed saloon in Huntington.
Although licenses will hold during
Monday and Tuesday of the coming
week, the majority of the Huntington
dealers will close their doors on Sat
urday night, never again to reopen
them to the trade. 5i{.
This impending event will usher in
a new era. 1t will work material
economic changes. West Virginia,
after more than fifty years of license.
will enter the ranks of the prohibition
states with law far more drastic
than has ever been written into the
statute books of any other American
commonwealth. And whatever NAV
have been the history of prohibition
or attempted prohibition in other
states, there is foremost profound
conviction that it will be made effect
i've in West Virginia, and that it viii
endure for a long period of years.
