Williams Wants More
 Farm Girls and Boys
In Letter to Spectator County Demonstration Agent Makes Appeal for Larger Club Memberships.

That he should have at least fifty boys and girls of Franklin county interested in the pig clubs, corn clubs. canning clubs and other farm boys and girls organizations is the opinion of T. M. Williams, Franklin county demonstration agent. At least that is what he states in a letter addressed to The Spectator urging every one interested in the betterment of farming and in the interest of the farm boys and girls to boost the proposition to help to secure the interest possible.
 We are publishigg MT. Will liams' letter below and want every boy and girl to read it and see or write Mir. Williams at Ozark at once. Every boy and and girl should join one or more of these clubs and help to get their friends interested. The letter follows:
 Dear Editor:
 Il have only seven boys in Franklin county enlisted in the pig club work, and it seems to me that we should have at least fifty. Any appeal that you may see fit to make in order to get more boys, girls too, interested in this work will highly appre- ciated.

Play Ball!
 Hip. Hip! Hooray!
 The season is on and next Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock will witness the first game of the season at the city park. The contest will be between the regular team and the local high school nine. The proceeds of the game will go toward fixing up the park, making necessary arrangements for the coming spring months and the real big games that are promised.
 A novel feature of the game is that two teams of nine girls each have organized and each are disposing of tickets, each one of which entities the res- pective captain to one vote in the contest for the solid gold chip diamond la valliere now on display at Mullen & Chancey's confectionery. A second prize is also offered, a solid gold ruby la valliere which is on display at C. w. & Roy Bells confection- cry. Miss Elgin Milton is cap- tain of the Blues while Miss SuIa Kate Benson captains the Reds. The first prize will go to the girl who turns in the most votes. Both prizes cannot go to the same team.
 Remember the game will be called Friday. April 7th at 4 o'clock and that the girls are now selling tickets and will be glad to furnish you with any number you desire.

Largest Advertisers
 Select The Spectator
Firms w h o Spend Thousands of Dollars Annually With Country Newspapers Cannot be Fooled.

If there has ever been any question in the minds o f our readers regarding the product iveness of The Spectator as a bu- siness-building medium, t h a t question is definitely settled now.
 We have just received big con- tracts for space from a number of the largest and best-known manufacturers in the world. If you will glance over over pages you will find such companies represented as
 Calumet Baking Powder Com pany
 Swift Specific Company
 Bradfield Regular Company
 Mustang Eminent Company
 Cheney Medicine Company
 R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Com- pany
 K. c. Baking Powder Con- pany
 Chamberlain Medicine Con- pany
 Chichester Medicine Company
 Monticello Drug Company.
 These firms make their con- tracts year after year with the leading publications of the vari- ous states. They advertise in thousands of newspapers turnout the country and are in position to know the value of newspaper publicity.
 The Spectator does not sell it's space to a foreign advertiser at cheaper rate than it would to a home firm, that is to say. each of the above firms pay exactly what any Ozark merchant or in- dividual would have to pay on a like contract. That is business and in fairness to all concerned. We don't have to cut our rate to secure foreign advertising. Neither will The Spectator ac- cept advertising from out-of- town advertisers that will in any way conflict with home mer- chants.
 T h e advertisers mentioned above recognize a real, live news paper when they see it. In the first place they seek to do their business with newspapers that are readable, neat and attractive. therefore read-f or otherwise how could they hope to secure results? Tn the second place they do their business with the paper which can show the lar gest local circulation-that i s '. circulation in t h e county in which the paper is published.
 The Spectator is rapidly grow ing into popularity its suhscrip- tion list is growing by leaps and bounds. Scarcely a day passes that does not witness the addi- ton of from one to five new names all right here in Ozark's tributary territory. In other words our weekly average for the past month has been IS or a total of 72 new. bonafde sub- scribers in thirty days. The Spectator should have 2,5OO cir culation in this section of the county and an earnest effort is being made to swell our already large list to that figure within the next 90 days.

Clean Sport The Keynote

~ ERHAPS never in the whole ath-
Nietic history of FL Paso has there
been such a elamor for the old
game Of basketball Never before has
the opportunity been so great to prove
the value Of true craftsmanship.
Long since the ban has been placed
on rough house" and vulgarity and 1t
is only here and there that it crops
out and it too often comes from
newcomer rather than from the old
school Several years ago representa-
tives OF the intercollegiate. 7. NJ c.
A. 7. NJ H 4 and the C A A met
and formed the Amateur Athletic I'M
ion OF the United States. This meant
Immediately a discussion and decision
upon one set of rules to govern the
game I'm the United States.
The first thing TO go was the double
dribble- Among the things which re-
ceived the knife were the number Of
steps allowed. catching the ball on a
toss-up. bodily contact. showing
playing out of bounds, etc.
The value OF these changes in the
rules can scarcely be OVerestiE2a ted
Those OF US who used to play the old
game can easily recall how we used
to take the fellow down the floor 80
per" ending up with a crash at the
other end and the substitution of IN
injured players.
We also appreciate the fact that the
new game takes more passing, more
real team work and that personal con-
fliCts are being reduced to n minimum.
No good coach viii tell a substitute
to put that man out Of the game"
any more. He will tell him to go in
and play a faster game
In addition to Strengthening out the
rules of the game. the committee felt
that the pivot upon which the success
Of the new rules depended was the
referee
They realized that in less time than
IT takes to tell about it a team rec
ognizes a loose referee and conscious
" or unconSciouSly takes advantage
Of it. In a close game. the decision
or the referee decides the game rather
than the play OF the ten men on the
floor Therefore he must be unbiased
and fearless.
If the members or the teams are
good SpOrtSmen, they will back Up the
decision Of the referee by not repeat
ing the offense and cutting out So
called Grabbing"
The best officials will make mis-
takes but not glazing ones. In the
heat of conflict. players usually see
but one side Of a decision; 1t is either
for or against them and too often they
express their opinion too freely Such
a player or players should he elected
from game after one warning.
Finally. let US endeavor to produce
first class officials Every one knows
that from the narrow standpoint il is
at best a .thankless'' job. but from
the broader viewpoint, I. Q. that of
clean and better craftsmanship for the
future il is a privilege to have a
share in the development Of better
manhood.
Suggestions: / Get a rule book
and study it from cover to cover.
