Horace Mann Beats
Columbia Cubs, 90

Again yesterday afternoon the CO.
lumbia freshmen. playing against Hor-
ace Mann on South Field, met with de-
feat. when the high school eleven tai
lied nine points to their zero.
Cobb, right halfback for Horace
Mann, broke away from an Intellectual
tackle and ran sixty yards for touch,
down in the first quarter. In the third
period the same man dropkicked a goal
and ended the scoring.
Columbia's one effective forward
pass, Stewart to Johnson, carried the
ball forty yards toward the goal in the
last few minutes CT play, but Horace
Mann managed TO hold their opponents
for the time that remained. Earlier in
the came Columbia got the ball on the
one-yard line, pushed over, and lost the
chance to score on a tumble.

AN URGENT APPEAL.

For the past two years the Kings
Daughters have handled the United
Charity with the funds subscribed by
"a few of the Greenwood citizens and
from the Kings Daughters treasury.
There v has been enough SUBJ
scribed to carry on the work, and the
collections this summer have been very
poor.
We now have a family that is desti-
tute and sick; the mother has tuberou-
losis and the two little children the
whooping cough. We want to send
them out west, where the mother may
have a chance to be spared to help
raise her children. 1t will cost at
least $500. But looking from a fin
'~ancial point of view this will eve be
cheaper than keeping them here to
buy clothing, food milk, eggs and fuel
for the winter, but don't you think it
the humane thing to do?
I
Now, we are going to ask any one
that would like to contribute toward
this charitable deed, to send it or
phone at once to Mrs. c. P. Pepper,
Secretary Of United Charity.
We would not make this public ap-
peal-especially now, when so many
demands are being made or our purse
strings-if there was any money in
the Kings Daughters treasury.
But we are going to be compelled
to borrow more money to maintain
our hospital, and a we afford to let
the poor unfortunate at u very doors
suffer? It is up to you-what are
you going to do about it?

Leader Kings Daughters.

The departure of the Third Infan-

all sleep under canvas, fifteen men

number of men to each tent will be
decreased, when more canvas be-
comes available.
