The Seeders are undisputed City
Champs.
Fighting to the last the Greeks fail
ed to take the third game Of the city
series last night losing in perhaps the
best game of the season by 1 to 0
score. 1t appeared from the play of
the Greeks last night that they were
just getting back into their stride
again but 1t came too late. Predict
ions that the game last night would
be won by a low score caused the
rooters to sit up and take notice be-
fore the game was far advanced.

the other hand was just as effective.

He too showed better than at any

The goal scored by the Seeders was
almost a fluke as Lancaster had stop

Star building It was hard for the
residents of Richmond to believe that
the trip could be covered in such a
remarkably short time, but after see
ing the log book they were convinced
that we had delivered the goods and
broken all former records between the
two cities. The car was. put in the
garage and early the next morning
placed on exhibition at the state fair
exhibit, which was in progress all last
week.
In conclusion, here are two things
that it will be well for the motorist
to remember: Be sure and carry q
complete equipment of chains and don't
hesitate to shift the gears of your
machine before and not after you enter
a muddy stretch of road. If You once
get mired you will. find it almost i'm
possible to shift gears to any advan-
tage. It's no disgrace to use low
speeds when road conditions are bad
The gears were put in motor cars for
just that purpose, and the advice to
motorists is to use them whenever
necessary.
The itinerary of the trip was as fol-
lows:

The ladies Of Leon and Decatur

Charities next Monday at $3.50 p. m.

Here is Ruskin's definition of a
lady: "Lady means 'bread-giver' or
'loaf-giver': and lady has legal
claim to her title only so far as she
communicates that help to the poor
representative of her Master, which
women once, ministering to Him Of
their substance, were permitted to
extend to that Master Himself; and
when she is known, as He Himself
once was. in breaking of bread.
There is still a month or more of
cold weather. If each will give of
his or her means only small
amount it will help some less fOrtu-
nate one to be more comfortable.
