IAN OLD AGE BE CHEATED?

CAN OLD ALE DE ST'IT
former tennis champion gave up
the game shortly after leaving col
lege While he had lost none OF his
interest and love for the sport, pres
sure of his regular business made 1t
impossible for him to devote as much
time to the game as he had done
During the past summer he was in
yeigled into match with a far
Younger man. The former champion
displayed remarkable skill and made
Il oneback" which was amazing to
both Thus encouraged he played
frequently and hard at the game.
Toward the end of the season he
had to give up the game on account
of "tennis elbow which was so
painful that it made his brilliant
plays. which had done SO much to
offset the youth of his opponent, i'm
possible. Some few weeks later this
man suffered from an Intestinal at
tack and became all run down
Not recovering promptly, he was
finally advised to go to a sanltarlum
for a few weeks rest, a course OF
baths, massage, mild gymnastics, and
other forms of treatment employed
to resuscitate old, broken down bus
mess men. To his utter disgust
he was told by the physician IN
charge that at 45 he was too old to
play vigorous, competitive games.
Unwilling to accept such an unwel-
come statement and to shape his life
accordingly, he attributes his break
down to having stuck to his business
too long without a vacation. The
physician, however, was right.
AS [ have stated before in this
column, every man, and woman also
for that matter, needs physical
recreation and play, but most de-
cidedly and emphatically it should
not be in the form Of vigorous, com
petitive contests of strength and
skill, and especially not against the
present generation of college ath-
letes. 1t is better a thousand times
for one to lead an almost absolutely
sedentary life than to overtax ones
physical strength in competitive
games.
1t is difficult to realize that one
is no longer physically young at As;
and yet the history of the prize
ring is one long chronicle Of defeats
of young middle aged men by youths
from 20 to 25 years old. Prudence,
if nothing else, dictates that people
should attempt to grow old grace
fully and complacently
The real need of those Of us who
are approaching the danger line is
form of physical play and recrea-
ton that is adapted to our physical
abilities and requirements. Golf,
seems to do better than any other
sport and it is encouraging to see so
many courses being opened. But
we need more winter sports.
The st. Paul attempt to revive
interest in out door sports is a Wor-
thy one, and one that many cities
throughout the state might we'll
copy for health and other reasons.

COW TESTING WORKS

The cow testing associations which

more profitable and successful. This

TALKS ON THRIFT
Saving at the Spigot and Wasting at
the BunghoIe

There is an economy that saves
at the spigot and wastes at the bung-
hole. To practice economy in little
things and forget it in the larger
ones is no economy at all. To walk
mile in order to save five cents
car fare may not be good policy, for
the time may be worth many times
the saving 1t has been figured out
that it does not pay carpenter to
stoop down to pick up nail, for
the time he wastes would buy two
in the big city dashing in front of
autos, lodging with their lives to
save few moments time, and
then stop for ten or fifteen minutes
to watch some gentleman in win
dow advertising a corn cure Be
consistent!
1t never pays to buy something
simply because it is cheap. If you
do not need it, it is dear at any
price. The woman who is eager for
bargains and buys simply because
she cannot resist the temptation to
get a bargain has sWindled herself.
True value consists in getting the
maximum return for the money spent.
Last summer a woman bought six
baskets of peaches that were spot
ted, and thought she bought them
cheap, and her economical soul was
exultant; but when she found she
had fewer cans than if she had
bought sound fruit, and the scraps
were useless for peach butter" and
in her anxiety to get them canned
before they spoiled she worked her
self sick and let the syrup boil UNI
til it crystalliZed, she realized that
there are some bargains that are
not bargains.
When a wave of economy strikes
the household, the wife generally de-
cides to save on the table, which is
all very we'll, provided she knows
how. But to buy cheap meats and
stale vegetables may be the poorest
sort Of economy.
There are some cuts of beef as
nourishing as porterhouse at one
third less the cost; but to buy bone
and gristle for beef is to deceive
yourself If the family eats no fat,
buy lean cuts. Pork chops can be
had with practically no fat Or bone
at all. These are the loin chops.
Rump roast is all meat and no bone
and goes a long way because there
is no waste. In the matter of cloth
ing costly economy can be practiced.
Two pairs of two dollar shoes will
not last half as long as one pair of
four dollar ones. Bingham costs
more than calico, but it wears long
er and looks better. 1t costs just
as much to make a dress of calico
as of bingham and the only differ
ence is the small saving in mater
ial cost, which is over-balanced by
the short wear. A remnant Is not
cheap unless you can use it.
1t may pay a woman to do her
own laundry, but if she breaks her
health it is costly washing. You can
save money by doing without eating
at least cutting it down to stop
ping the craving for food. You can
eat candy just before dinner and not
want soup and meat; but that is
saving money to hire a doctor. True
economy does consist in doing with
out some things-needless luxuries,
but not in doing without the necessi-
ties of life There are many ways
to save, but look out that in saving
at the spigot you don't forget the
bunghole.

RETURN FROM TEXAS TRIP


which wassa short distance northwest
of Brownsville Mr.. Rada purchased
forty while there and will move
his family to Texas the latter part
of this month.
Texas has numerous advantages,
no doubt, but it has it's drawbacks
that are easily apparent to any visi-
tor. One man who returned some
time ago from a visit to Texas has
handed us the following rather sacri-
legious, but, withal, faithful, descrip-
ton of the way Texas impressed
him:
"The devil in hell, we're told, was
chained,
And a thousand years he there re-
NAMED;
He never complained, nor did he
groan,
But determined to start hell of
his own,
Where he could torment the souls
of men
Without being chained in a prison
pen.
So he asked the Lord if he had
on hand,
Anything left when he made the
land
The Lord said: Yes, I have plen-
ty on hand,
But 1 left it down on the Rio
Grande;
The fact is old boy, the stuff is
SO poor,
/ don't think you Cd use it in hell
any more
But the devil went down to look
at the truck
And said if it came as a gift he
was stuck,
For after examining it carefully ard
we'll,
He concluded the place was too
dry for a he'll.
So, in order to get it off of his
hands,
The Lord promised the devil to
water the lands,
For he had some water-or rather
some dregs,
A regular cathartic, and smelled
like bad eggs.
Hence the deal was closed and the
deed was given,
And the Lord went back to his
home in Heaven.
And the devil then said, "I'll have
all that is needed
To make a good hell" and hence
he succeeded.
He began to put thorns on all the
trees,
And mixed up the sand with mil
lions of fleas,
And scattered tarantulas on all
the roads,
Put thorns on the cactus and horns
on the toads;
He heightened the horns of the
Texas steers,
And put an addition to the rabbits
ears;
He put a Mttle devil in the broncho
steed,
And poisoned the feet of the cent?
pede.
The rattlesnake bites you, the scor-
pion stings,
The mosquito delights you with
buzzing wings;
The san burrs prevail and so do
the ants,
And those who sit down need half
soles on their pants,
The devil then said that throughout
the land,
He'd manage to keep up the DEVILS
own brand,
And all would be mavericks unless
CiCJ OolE
Marks of scratches and bites and
thorns by the score.
The heat in the summer is 10,
Too hot for the devil and too hot
for men.
The wild boar roams through the
black chaparrel,
It's a hell of a place he has for a
hell
The red pepper grows on the banks
of the brook;
The Mexicans use it in all that |
they cook,
Just dine with a "Greaser," and |
then you will shout,
I've hell on the inside as well as
the out F."

Mr.. Wilson tries to make it aD-
pear that what he terms "the
special interests" are behind
Hughes. The irony of the at
tempt is heightened by the fact
that the President raises the
question in speeches made at
Shadow Lawn, which was the
country seat of John A. Mccall.
He, it will be remembered, was
president of the New York Life
Insurance Co at the time Hughes
made his first impression on the
country as counsel for the legis-
lative committee which was in
vestigatiDg the insurance prob
lem IN New York. If the "spec
ial interests" are ''behind" Mr..
Hughes, they are as far behind
him as the date of that investi-
cation, at least.

TWO JUDGES OF

Republican Candidates Are Of
Sterling Quality,
EOth Have Had Successful Ca

Rig5-C.ass LaWyers---PiCk
0ut Their Names On the Non.
Partisan Ballot.

Every voter should remember next
Tuesday that one of his most import
ant duties is the selection of two
judges of the Supreme Court of the
state.
The Republican party presents in
this campaign two men who should
unQuestionably be elected to these
most important positions next Tues
day, James Joyce of Guernsey Coun-
t., and A. N. Summers, of Clarke
County.
Mr.. Joyce has had a successful
career as a lawyer, member of the
General Assembly and member of
Congress. He has for several years
been recognized as one of the fore
most members of the Guernsey Coun-
ty bar. Aggressive, able to cope
with any adversary, recognized as a
very thorough and capable lawyer
and careful and persistent student
of the law, Woodworking and scholar
ly, he is recognized as fully equipped
for membership on the Supreme
Court.
Mr.. Summers served for ten years
on the bench of the Circuit Court and
for seven years on that of the Su-
preme Court of Ohio. During these

narcotic drugs. 1t is a pity that
there is 10 such an enactment to
prevent the altogether too free
distribution of the dope, ''he kept
US out of war" The use Of this
slogan is as bad as the drug ha-
bit. 1t tends to lethargize the
public mind. 1t sets up false
visions in the brain, like those of
opium and hasheesh. 1t destroys S
the sense of values in political
thinking. 1t means the destruc-
tion of the national spirit as sure
ly as the continued use of NOR

the individual spirit. The cure
is to quit it.

Mr.. Hughes has shown his un-
selfshness and his breadth of
vision by his repeated pleas for
the election of a Republican Con-
gress as well as a Republican pre-
sident. He is not for Hughes
First" He is for Republican
principles first, realizing that the
establishment and maintenance
Of those principles is essential to
the permanent welfare and pres
tige of the nation. He wants a
Republican Congress to enact the
laws which a Republican presi-
dent will sign, restoring to this
country the sound economic poll
cies upon which our prosperity
has invariably been founded.
Keep this in mind when you vote.
