In kits, Mary
Is Charming

Mary Pickford's appearance is
always one of charm. No matter
whether she is in rags, the silk
kimona of Butterfly, the riot of
colors found in Hindustan, the
wornout garments of Tess and the
Founding, or the Gathering
wooden shoes of Hulda, there is
always the same charm, the same
sweet winsomeness that makes
her SO appealing to everyone.
In "The Pride of the Clan" Lit
tie Mary dons the kits, and she
makes truly fascinating lassie.

Rival High
Schools Meet

Stadium and Lincoln park high
schools are scheduled to clash in
their first basketball game of the
season late this afternoon. Lin
coin has an edge, it is believed,
because of better facilities for
practicing. The Stadium boys
have had no gym this year, be-
cause of the installation of swim
ming pools, and have been forced
to travel to Lincoln Park for prac-
tice work.

PAUL STEEL LOSES
IN WHIRLWIND BOUT

Archie Wyard, the clever little
former amateur champ, who al
ways pleases with his style of box
ing, won a close verdict over Paul
Steele of Tacoma, in a contest
which ended in in whirlwind fash

in the best of condition, and the
aggressive Tacoma lad punished
the local boy in the early rounds
with a crushing right which found
its mark often. But Wyard finish
ed in true garrison fashion, and
gained the popular decision by
fighting Steele all over the ring in
the final period. Wyard won a
big hand for his showing.

AVOIDABLE WASTE OF SEED
Former Louisiana County Agent Says
Loss Is Caused by Careless
Handling at Mills.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
There is no greater avoidable waste
in the South than that Of cotton seed
rotting at gins and oil mills, according
to w. c. Hudson of Alexandria, La,
a former county agent, who says this
waste is due to careless handling, par
ticularly at the oil mills.
He then tells how the waste may be
avoided by having the cotton dry when
il is ginned and by having drier at the
mills to dry the seed, or by having it
spread out carefully. Ordinarily this
seed yields about forty gallons of oil
to the ton Of seed, but If the seed is
allowed to rot the oil is inferior and
fit only for soap making. The oil meal
is also of low grade, and this means
a great waste of the good foodstuff in
cotton seed-forty gallons Of oil to the
ton and over 1000 pounds of meal.
