A friend Of ours told the other

the founder Of the Progressive
Farmer make speech thirty years
ago. "And he told one story

said. HE told about seeing a
farmer with wagon load of meat,
hav. and -four about this time of
year.
"Col. Polk said to the farmer
'Whv are you buying all this
meat. hay. and f1ouri'
I" so l can make cotton was
the reply.
T" And why do you want to
make cotton7'
SO | can pay for the meat,
hay and four the farmer an

And the pity of it is that after
thirty years Of agitation and ed

does the evil stop here. because

arrangement mapped out by President

board early in the winter. Wheeling
and Fl. Wayne were the only cities
on the doubtful list until today the
latter because OF the determination OF
the old owners to retire from the
game and the former because OF its
location was hardly as desirable as
Fl. Wayne. Wheeling was the lucky
city and the owners state II will M

rather n holly contested affair in
which the Juniors outclassed their
opponents in every department.
For the visitors. Zabrosky. playing
forward was the individual star. She
Gagged two field goals and shot twelve
FOULS out OF 81 trials. II was mainly
her playing that saved her team from

OF the Old Gold and Blue defenders

was played with six players and under
girls rules, the Wheeling team was
leading by the score OF &c 10 9. Dur
Ing the last half. which was plaved
under boys rules. the visitors PLAYED
n much better game and ran their total
up 10 %.
The contest was rather rough and
was featured by the large number OF
fouls that were called on both teams.
As a foul shooter Zabrosky was better
than any other girl that has appeared
OF the local flor this season.

For the beneht OF those who don't
know It this may he e~lucidated.
The taxicab having gone a mile and
n half. 20 cents should be show
ing on the meter. But the unscrupu-
lous driver is something Of a psycholo-
gist. lie knows that the passenger
ninety-nine times out of a hundred
doesn't sit with his Eyes glued on the
flag. lie is preparing TO alight or
looking at the traffic or the windows.
SO ius: as the cab rolls UP t. the curb
the driver fiips the nag upright. thus
setting the "clOCk" back to zero, n
says pleasantly. "a dollar ten" And
n!nety-nine times of a hundred he
used to get away with It. But not
now.
That Is much heater than the Old
device OF taking the longest possible
route. and besides It saves gasolene
and tires.
II sometimes pays also 10 see that
the o'clock" Is nj zero on entering the
cab. II might not be. by reading this
far suspicion nay have hecn aroused
that not ali taxi drives are l!ly pure
and they have been known in rare
instances to run up a half dollar or
80 on tho clock before picking up a
fare.
In fairness to the tnXicab drivers
be i, said. however. that Il usually Is
unjust and impol!,.c To question the
figures on the clock. The meters are
correct. The city takes great pains
to see that they are. B,aorc a meter
can he installed on "a taN.'t Is sent to
the laboratory in West Ftfty-seventh

This - a complicated process, involv-
ing the perimeter OF automobile wheels

But a tiny motor spins the meter the
required number OF thousands of rcvo-

TO the Bureau OF Licenses. the front
wheels of the car are lacked up and
a motor spins them another fifty miles
