Newport 13--Searey 12.


 Newport people had a sample of real football Saturday when the Searcy high school boys met the gridiron at the fair grounds.
 The teams played like veterans from the very start. On the toss up Searcy won and recelV- ed Newport's kick.
 Searcy made steady gains on Newport's goal in the first quar- ter, until within twenty-two yards of making goal, when up- on an attempted end run Moore, Searcy's left half, fumbled, and Wise, Newport's little full back, recovered the ball, found an O. pen field and made a seventy eight yards run for the first touchdown. A minute later he kicked goal.
 The ball see-sawed up and down the field for the remaind- CT of the second without either team having chance to score.
 During the third quarter the inks entered Newport's ranks and before it could be eliminated Searcy had made two touch downs, the score standing 12 to 7, in favor of the visitors.
 In the fourth quarter New port came back strong and by a series of end runs and line plunges made her second touch down just 30 seconds before time was called. Every man was at his post all the time.
 Wise, the little full back for Newport, succeeded in landing the pigskin over the line under Searcy's goal on both occasions and received a big share of the glory, but each of his team mates

SUBSTITUTroN.

The imitator is like the coun-
 terfeiter. He enters the field of
 business with a cheaper, lower grade article of merchandise, made as substitute for the gem uine, and generally sold at a
 cheaper price, arguing, as usual, that it is "just as good" The dealer is persuaded to handle it
 on glowing promises of enormous
 profits-rnuch larger than the reg ular legitimate profit which is made on the genuine article. The imitator succeeds in playing upon mans natural avarice, places his
 goods on sale with the dealer, and instructs him to take advantage
 false article for the genuine at
 every opportunity. m You can be
 pretty sure that whenever you ask for a well-lnOwn product and
 the dealer tells you he has some-
 thing else that's just as good, or
 even better, the dealer is going to
 make a greater profit on that ar
 ticle than the one you call for, and in nine cases out of ten you will get a much inferior article.
 Some buyers are easily imposed
 upon and this encourages the
 "get-rich-quick' schemers to in- crease their Substitutions. This dlSO UlHCpul ttGcS lAAt icSllltlAe lo
 manufacturer who is putting out
 articles of merchandise that rep resent honest value to the con
 sumner. Where a man has devoted
 years of his life in perfecting an
 article that he knows cannot be
 eXcelled in quality; where he has
 spent thousands of dollars in ad- vertising his goods: and where
 these goods have been giving uni
 versal satisfaction for long
 time, great injury results by per-
 hitting substitution to rob him of his market and at the same
 time rob the consumer by selling
 him a doubtful article at practi-
 cally the same price.
 & There is no law through which
 such evil practices can be stopped. The sole remedy is for the legiti-
 mate manufacturers to ask the public direct not to patronize
 dealers who try to substitute
 different brand of goods for the
 kind wanted. All first class deal-
 CTS know that it is poor business
 to try to substitute something
 else for the article wanted.
