We know that ordinarily there is
very little sympathy bestowed upon
one who has taken a cold in his head.
To say the least, it is very humiliat-

worse, his friends share his feelings,
and despise him (secretly. of course)
as much as he despises himself. and
vote him a nuisance. 1t must have
been mere stupidity Oh his part. they

The suffering. though not the
danger. of cold in the head is quite
as great as that of pneumonia. and

victim is no less deserving of sympa-

emancipation when we will not have
to wash our faces and all washdays
will be yesterdays, with no one to re-
mind us of today. Well, are we sat
iSfied now that most of us succeed in
acquiring an extra layer of face by
reason of our Columbia atmosphere?
No We weren't satisfied, even, when
a few mornings ago dirty faces were
not only positive but superlative. We
grumbled AT the water system. We
growied at our breakfast which uSu-
ally We swallow in passive suffering
that is, the boarding house part of US
who know not that variety is the spice
of life. The realization which has
come with an atmosphere saturated
with the product of many chimneys
and the casual aid of the waterworks
falls short of juvenile anticipation.
As if we could be pleased. We set
our goal "a step or so ahead Our gaze
is fixed II remains step ahead as

never equal anticipation. We must

ELECTRIC IRON PRESENTED no
THE DOMESTIC SCIENCE DE-
PARTMENT OF NJ. II. y.

The sewing class of the High School
has been in need of an electric iron
for sometime to press out the seams of
the garments they are making When
Col. Horace Cochran learned CT our
need, he asked permission to present
one with the compliments of The
Electric Shop of Maysville Gas Co.
We have over forty (4O) girls in the
sewing class OF our Home Economic
Department, who are very much in
terested in their work. Most Of the
equipment of this Department has
been purchased through the entertain
ment fund of the High School, but as
that fund gives evidence of being
smaller this year than usual, we espe-
cially appreciate the gift of the Gas
Company.

A. G. Wagers Files Suit In the MasOI
Circuit Court Yesterday Against
Thomas Malone Of This County
For Damages Through
Failure Of Latter
TO Sell Stock.

In the Mason Circuit Court yester-
day Mr.. A. @. Wagers filed suit against
Mr.. Thomas Malone of this county for
damages sustained when the latter
failed to sell him a large amount of
stock he agreed to. Messrs. Slattery
and Rees represent the plaintiff.
The petition states that on or about
December 2, 1915, the plaintiff pur-
chased from the defendant 100 hogs to
be delivered not earlier than July 20
nor later than August 10, 1916, at a
price of tn cents per pound; same to
be delivered at the defendants home
or at a price of 8 cents per pound IL
delivered at the Union Stock Yards at
Cincinnati, the place and time OF the
delivery to be at the option of the
plaintiff. The plaintiff states that in
the contract of sale 1t was agreed that
the hogs shrould weigh at least $50
pounds apiece and be fat. 1t was further
agreed that the hogs should be fed
corn until delivered. The plaintiff
states that between July 20 and Au-
gust 10 he demanded the delivery of
the said hogs in accordance with the
terms of the contract at the union
Stock Yards at Cincinnati, but the de-
PENDANT failed and refused to deliver
the hogs or any portion thereof; that
at the time hogs weighing $50 pounds
and up we're worth in the open market

Plaintiff states he was ready willing
and able to receive and pay for the

livered in Cincinnati. The cattle were
to be fed corn up until the time OF the
delivery. The defendant failed to fill
this part of the contract and upon de-
livery the cattle were rounu TO be
grass fed" cattle; that II the cattle
had been fed corn they would have
weighed at least 1850 pounds and
would have been worth OK cents per
pound on the market in Cincinnati;
that the defendant failed and refused
to feed the cattle corn, thereby deliv-
ering the cattle in a poor condition, to
the plaintiffs damage of $2,175.
Paragraph three states that another
bunch of 100 hogs were contracted for
on the same date to be delivered be-
tween October and 18th These hogs

Maysville's Tobacco Fair and Corn
Show will open promptly at the hour
OF noon today, continuing for the rest

it is to be hoped that their prediction
will come true.
Yesterday the various persons own
ing booth space we're busy arranging

the work by night. A large number Of

BASKETBALL SEASON
OF the Maysvllle High School VIII
Begin Friday Night When the
Local Teams WIN Engage
With Germantown.

The interest of a great number OF
Maysville people will center at the
High School auditorium tomorrow
night when the first and second teams
of the basketball of the Maysville
High School will play the two fast
teams from Germantown. These will
be the first games of the season.
The coaches for the Maysville teams
have been quite busy for the past sew
eral weeks whipping the local boys
into shape for the opening of the sea-
son and it is expected that the local
boys will put up two scrappy games.
The boys have practiced hard and
faithfully and they feel that they will
be able to overcome the boys from that
part OF the county quite easily. The
Germantown boys will be under some
what of a handicap in the fact that
they are accustomed to playing on an
open air court and Of course will be
greatly hindered in their movements
on the crowded floor of the audito-
rum.
The Maysville first team this year
holds forth a promise of excelling any
team ever put forth by NJ. H. s. The
team this year has suffered the loss of
Hampton, f. Parker and Shea, stars of
the last years team, but with a great
deal of new material to pick from and
the remainder of the old team will be
able to meet all corners. Wood, S.
Parker, Smoot, Everett and several
others promise to be the stars of this
years team, but a number of the
Freshmen in the school have come out
for the sport and are making good, so
one or two of these men may be ousted
by better playing.
The first game will open promptly
at 1880 o'clock and the first half of the
second game will follow the close OF
the first half of the first game. They
will alternate in this way. Ample
seating room will be provided for those
who wish to attend.
