Gorsuch Breaks Spell With
65-Yard Sprint For
Touchdown
DELAWARE LOSES
BY ID TO z SCORE
Payne Helps Materially In
End Runs-Blair's Toe
Proves Reliable

Beginning the second half under an
adverse score of 7 to 0, the boys Of
the Mt. Vernon high school football
team fought like demons Thanksgiv-
ing Day, picking their holes in the op-
positions line with amazing skill and
seizing every opportunity to gain, win
ming the final game Of the season from
the Delaware boys by a score Of IA
to 7.
When the play started 1t looked pret.
ty dull for the local boys although
Hardin, Faddis, Blair and Hadley were
playing their star game. However, the
efforts Of these four proved fruitless in
the first quarter the visitors gaining
touchdown.
In the second quarter, the remain.
Ing seven men of the team started
their regular game and held the backs
o fthe Delaware team from gaining
very much ground But in the third
quarter the tide turned to the locals
and in returning a punt, Gorsuch, of
the locals, sped down the field, dis
lance OF 60 yards, for a touchdown
and Blair lived up to his reputation by
adding another point to the score by
kicking goal. Finally in the last quar-
ter, the winning touchdown was made
by Captain HadIey who played to ad-
vantage after Payne, Mt. Vemon's
speedy halfback, had taken the pig
skin to within several feet of Della
wares goal.
FIRST QUARTER
In the first quarter yne ball was TAX
en- up and down the field with neither
side in the lead. Near the end Of that
quarter, Delaware finally succeeded in
getting the advantage on straight line
boys were able to keep possession
the ball and when within several yards
of Mt Vernons goal line Mackenzie !
bucked through the Mt Vernon line
for touchdown. Although forced to |
kick at an angle, Colvin kicked goal
giving Delaware the lead by score !
of to 0. Those from Delaware went |
wild with excitement, but this was |
short-lived as the local line held like |
stone-wall and the visitors were |
forced to give up their line bucks for |
forward passes and end runs.
SECOND QUARTER
In the second quarter, the ball was |
kept on the go, up and down the field, |
but without ever reaching either sides |
goal line or coming very near. AL |
though the visitors had only seven |
points against the locals, this was rath- |
or discouraging as there was no sign
of either gaining to any great extent.
THIRD QUARTER
In the third quarter, the Mt. Vernon
boys began playing their original game
and held to great advantage the Della
ware backs, gaining several yards in
each attempt Delaware, having cap
tured the ball when Blair fumbled, was
forced to punt as the distance that
they had TO gain to keep the pigskin
was bevond them with the local line

ATTRACT MANY
Congregation Of 700 Hears
Rev. M. S. Freeman
THANKSGIVING TOPIC
Handled In Rather Unusual Manner
Peaceful America contrasted
With War-Swept Europe

A congregation of over 700 people
attended the union Thanksgiving ser
vices which were held at the Church
of Christ Thursday evening.
There was a special musical pro-
gram which was greatly enjoyed by
the many in attendance.
Rev M. s. Freeman, pastor of the
Congregational church, was chosen to
deliver the sermon of the evening
He referred to the ancient harvest
festivals from which, he stated, arose
the idea of thanksgiving. This was
brought to America by the Pilgrim
Fathers and has been an institution ev-
er since.
What we should be thankful for
now, stated Rev. Mr.. Freeman, is the
fact that we are men and are endowed
with the power of achievement. He
delved into prehistoric times, citing
the development of the powers Of
mind of men as against those of infer
ior animals.
Especially should we be thankful,
Rev Mr.. Freeman averred, for our
present happy state in this country.
He contrasted conditions in the Unit
ed States, where peace and prosperity
prevail, with those in Europe where
havoc and desolatfon are supreme by
virtue of the terrible war.
Rev. Mr.. Freemans sermon Was
rather unusual in its manner of treat
ment of the thanksgiving subject and
was greatly enjoyed by the large CON
gregation.
At st. Paul's Episcopal church,
Christian Science headquarters and St.
Vincent de Paurs Catholic church, SER
vices were held Thanksgiving morning
and were welI-attended. The thanks
giving idea furnished the basis Of dis
course at a1f three places and was
welI-handled by those in charge.

WELL KNOW POWER OF DRESS
Women Need No instructions From
Men as. TO How They Shall

Women dress the way they want to
dress. They need no instructions as
to modesty or propriety. From a very
early age they understand perfectly
their powers both of allurement and Of
defense.
Women who expose their bodies
know that they are doing II, and they
know exactly why they are doing II.
So do men.
Modesty comes from within. I'm
modesty comes from thence, likewise
Thorough modesty in women's dress
Is wholly consistent with the utmost
Of feminine beauty and attractiveness
The sex appeal is quite another mat
ter.
For uncounted generations women
have been the chattels of men. We
know what that means. The day Of
finer, truer companionship between
men and women is but Just dawning
The movement has not progressed
very far, but II is going ahead every
day. The distance to be traversed,
however, is still great. Meanwhile,
the instinct to appeal to the purely
physical In man will persist and won.

A eREAT LESSON.

Among the incalculable losses re-
sulting from this great war there
stands out prominently one benefit; It
has brought to all countries engaged
in it-and to others-a realization such
as they never had before of the rela-
ton between alcohol and efficiency.
Something, and perhaps much. Of that
new knowledge is sure to remain af-
ter peace returns, for, OF course, 1t is

CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL.

That tho use Of beer and wines does
not tend 30 decrease tho consumption
Of strong liquors, is shown by Gabriel
son, a Swedish statistician who has
published the results Of his re
searches. Tho figures are for the pc
riod 1906i910.
France consumes more than three
times as much alcohol per capita as
the United States. due TO its general
use Of wine. Italy consumes nearly
three times as much, Spain twice as
much, Greece twice as much, Switzer'
land twice as much, Portugal nearly
twice as much. Belgium consumes
considerably moro alcohol, although
II is one OF the leading beer countries.
In Germany 40 per cent Of the total
drink consumption Is Of spirits, while
in the United States moro than 55
per cent OF the total drink consumption
is beer, which seems to indicate that
the Germans, despite their beer preju'
dices, use considerably more spirits
per capita than the United States.
