A football game is expected to be
played in the near future by Fulton,
Mo-, and Lincoln Institute. We are
not able to give a just estimate Of
Fulton's team, but we do know beyond
reasonable doubt that Prof. Burlong,
the scientific coach of Lincoln 1nsti-
tute, has trained Ibis boys until they
are in the best of condition. Prof.
Burlong is net among the hes
coaches Lincoln has ever had; and we
predict for him and his brawny team
victory in every game that is sched-
uled for this season. These young
athletes possess not only the brain
work but the power and pep" as well,
which is a requisite for any first class
football team. REV. f. Scruggs was
rendered a very unique surprise party
by members and friends of this
church. Many useful things were car
ried to the parsonage and all who took
part in the very pleasant function ex'
pressed themselves as being very
agreeably entertained. The Second
Baptist Church should be congratu-
lated for it's farsightedness and splen-
did judgment shown in electing as its
pastor such a distinguished, well
known, scholarly divine as Rev. E.
Scruggs. We predict for the church,
under his efficient management, sue
cess both spiritually and financially.

readers of The Sun buy papers each
week and send them to their friends
in the army camps here and across
the "briny deep" cover there" What
a pang of joy is expressed by our
brave soldier lads when they receive
a Sun and read of the folks at home!
Whenever you see a poem worth
while,
They read the Sun and often smile.
They know they're reading the latest
news.
Not antique stuff" as old "Methuse."
Why sit around like you've missed
your 'stew?"
When the Sun will kill that no news
blues"
Join the bunch which call each week
At U. S. Tayes', Lafayette Street.
Then buy a Sun and read the news,
Just any old place you find will do.
When you've finished, wrap it tight
And send 1t to our boys who fight.
They'll welcome 1t with open arms,
Tho the bullets fall like rain In a
storm,
They'll read the news OF U. s. A.
AN run those Huns till their hair
gets gray.
