CLASSIEST OF WRESTLING
ON The PLAYHOUSE BILL

What is regarded as the biggest as
we'll as the most important wrestling
exhibition which has ever been held
in Wilmington is the one which has
been staged for The Playhouse on
Monday evening. In every respect it
is different from any which has been
previously given and Wilmington is
assured Of seeing something which
will be entirely out OF the ordinary.
The Masked Marvel will meet Zbys-
zko in match for two out OF three
falls and Herold Christensen will
meet George Lem under the same
conditions.
When the wrestling tournament in
this city was announced Zbyszko is
sued a challenge to any wrestler TO
meet him. OF all the big wrestlers in
the country the Masked Marvel was
the only one who accepted the chal-
lenge The ability Of both men is too
we'll known to need comment. Zbys-
zko has been seen here and has de-
feated the men who had the nerve to
meet him. The Masked Marvel viii
he remembered as the man who gave
ed Stranger Lewis one of the tus-
sles OF his career at The Playhouse
and the match will be especially re-
membered on account OF Lewis hav-
ing used the toe hold with telling ef-
feet on the Masked Marvel and in
the second round OF the contest had
he trick turned on him and suffered
intense pain before he was finally
able to break the hold The Masked
Marvel. as a matter Of fact is one Of
the cleverest wrestlers in the husi-
ness The match will be catch-as-
catch-can and the winner will he
compelled to do some hard work
In quality it is expected that the
second match will be the equal of
the first. Herold Christensen is the
clever wrestler who threw all who
met him in this city with the eXcep-
tion OF Ed Lewis. He disposed Of
John Heracl the local strong man in
short order and made ed Lewis exert
himself to his utmest to throw hin
in his match with Lewis II took
Lewis forty-hve minutes TO throw
Christensen and the match was one
of the best ever seen here.
George Lem who is to meet Chris
tensen is one OF the best known
wrestlers in the business. He is
strong. clever and agile and it is ex-
pocted that he will prove a strong
match for the Swede.
All the men who are to take part
in the exhibition on Monday night are
determined to win and all are train
ing hard for the exhibition It is a
match on its merits in both cases and
it took strong inducements on the
part OF the Playhouse people to in.

There's a juicy richness and a last
ing favor in American Navy that is
original with tins brand. This state
ment from William i. Nirden 200 W.
4th St, Wilmington, Delaware, is one
OF many enthusiastic endorsements:
Il have been a tobacco chewer for
a number of years, but after trying
AMERICAN NAVY find it 10 be the
best. No other brand satisfies my
taste like AMERICAN NAVY"
Thousands OF the men who now speak
so enthusiastically OF AMERICAN
NAVY formeas chcwed Scrap" The
cigar tobacco used in Scrap" is the
thing that appeals 10 Scrap" chewers.
Well. AMERICAN NAVY is made Of
the same leaf tobacco used in good
cigars. The big difference is that
Scrap is made of cigar cuttings and
clippings, while AMERICAN NAVY
is made of the whole long leaf.
This use OF the long leaf gives a
product OF much higher grade An
other big point IN favor of AMERI-
CAN NAVY with Scrap chewers is
that AMERICAN NAVY is pressed
INTO pure fresh plugs by a process that
saves every drop Of the distinctive and
delightful favor

READ THIS TO THE
;. BOYS AND GIRLS

Just a little message to the boys
and girls in your school," the Her.
aids calls it, and it. is a message
meriting delivery to every class of
pupils in the public schools. Read
this to the boys and girls:
Don't be one of those foolish
children who are simply trying ito
pass instead of trying "to leadn."
You will find that you have to de-
pend upon your own knowledge long
after your standings" are forgot
ten.
Don't think you are cheating the
teacher when you skin through a
lesson with heair-bredth escape.
You are not cheating the teacher.
You are cheating yourself.
Don't think about what you're
going to do after school until school
is out. Concentrate on your work
the same earnest enthusiasm that
you concentrate on your play. 1t will
make the work easier and the play
more fun.
Dent gauge your school work by
a successful recitation or a we'll
passed test. 1t isn't what You let
the teacher know YOU know that
counts. 1t is what you know you
know yourself.
Remember that your parents are
doing everything they can do to
make you happy-and the least
thing you can do in return is to
give them the keen satisfaction that
will come if you take your school
life seriously and live it with the
very best and most fruitful results
that you can get out of it.
Remember that you can't fool
the cold, matter-of-fact, old world
of business when you enter the mat
tie cf afterlife. You can't bluff your
way to success. There isn't any
pony you can ride. You will find
out that you will be rated for ex-
actly what you are; and you will be
exactly what you make of yourself
right now when you are providing
yourself with your equipment. Bet
ter make your equipment just as
good as you can. You pass through
school but once. What you don't
learn will never help you reach a
pinnacle. What you do learn may
be the straw's weight that tilts the
scales from failure to success.
Be honest with your lessons. Be
honest with your books. Be honest
with your teachers. Be honest with
your opportunities. Be honest with
yourself.-Grand Rapids Herald.

This arrange requiring voters te declare their party affia- ton registering was purely democratic measure in the legislature intended in the first place to pre- vent republicans from assisting in forcing weak can didates upon the then dominant party. It was per haps not foreseen by it's promoters that it might be used to weaken further the minority party

 We earnestly advise all republicans who have reg stered democrats to procure the cancellation of their registration and register republicans. We believe this the republicans elect governor
 majority of the legislature and at least of the officers if they will only assist in spread of the sentiment of repuhlicanism But they cannot do that by contributing to an appearance that the state is overwhelmingly democratic.
