school to have inter-school athletics unless the people of the town support it. It takes money to defray the ex- penses of the visiting team-mor money than formerly. A few years ago we only paid 4 cents railroad fare; now it is 6 cents. A meal form erly cost us 25 cents; now it is from 40 cents to 50 cents. You readily see that games cost us from 50 to 100 per cent more. Another fact that adds to the cost is that several of the nearby towns situated within 40 miles of us that we formerly played, have no teams this year-Fordyce, Stuttgart, Little Rock college. This makes it necessary to bring teams from a greater distance.
 Two Games Scheduled.
 "We have two more games scheduled here for this season., If the public does not show more interest in these games than it has in the two already played here, it will be very discour- aging to try to have football team next year. We believe that we are doing our part in carrying out one part of President Wilson's scheme by continuing interschool athletics. He recently said: "I would be sincerely sorry to see the men and boys in our colleges and schools give up their ath- letic sports, and hope most sincerely that the norsAal course of college, and schools sports will be continued as far as possible, not only to afford, diver sion to the American people in the days to come when we shall, no doubt, have our share of mental depression, but as real contribution to the national defense, for our young men must be made physically fit in order that later they may take the place of those who are now of military. age and exhibit the vigor and alterness which we are proud to believe to be characteristic of our young men.
 Lonoke Friday.
 "On Friday, the 9th, we play Lonoke High school. Lonoke. defeated Little Rock 19 to IS. Little Rock claims to have the best team she has had in five years. This ought to be a good game. We ask you to encourage us by your presence. We really want you. A big enthusiastic crowd helps win a game. We want to win this game. Won't you help us by coming :? You need a little diversion. It will do you good to yell few times. It you can't possibly come, do the next next best thing-buy. one or, two tic kets from the boys when. they come around.
 "Now, we appreciate what the busi- ness men have done for us in the past. We appreciate our athletic field. We have tried to show this by putting out a good team each year. We have not written this in complaining spirit, but high school boy does like for the business men to take some in terest in him and his sports, and the boys were so discouraged when not more than 50 or 60 grown people turn ed out to our game with Hendrix Sat urday. Will you not come out to the game in full force Friday and make it look like old times? We assure you that we will appreciate it. ,gs..

RESIDENT MINISTER ON
SUNDAY SHOW CAMPAIGN

The writer, minister of the First
Presbyterian church, appeals to the
Christian people Of Chickasha to
stand BY their pastors in their effort
OF keep closed the moving picture
shows on Sunday, and in making this
appeal he believes that he is acting
in accord with the sentiment that is
leading Mr.. Ben Johnson to with
hold arbitrary action and grant to
the people of Chickasha an opportu-
nifty to express their approval Of his
course in closing the pitcure shows
on Sundays over year ago. It is
decidedly unfair to impute to Mr.
Johnson, notices other than those
expressed in his letter to the public
in the Chickasha Express OF Nov. IA,
and the writer takes this occasion to
express his full confidence in Mr..
Johnson and sees clearly between the
lines in his letter to the public
sincere desire on his part for the pic
ture shows to remain closed on sun
days and further desire for the peo
pie Of Chickasha to express their 3D..
proval Of his former action by an
overwhelming vote that will place
without question not only in the mind
of Mr. Johnson but also in the minds
Of the people that Chickasha wants
no picture shows on the Sabbath day.
