C. OF {. WINS GAME
Little Welsh Combination Too
Fast for Ottawa.
Places on AlI-Kansas Threat
ened by Collegian Backs.

Ottawa, Kan, Nov. ct wouldn't
be just exactly true, nor would it be
justice to the other nine players. to
call the College of Emporia team a
two-man offensive, yet it was the Lit
tle-Welsh combination that swept the
heavy Ottawa eleven off its feet in a
% to game here Monday afternoon.
Little and Welsh, backfield stars
extraordinary, followers from Coach
McCrory's team of last year, flashed
many a dizzy snaky run in the game.
Little is hard to stop and, if anything.
Welsh is harder. Their exhibit of ball
Juggling in Ottawa's first game of the
season will not be forgotten soon.
The first score of the game came in
the second quarter when Captain Lit
tie booted a drop kick from the 30
yard line. Before the quarter ended
Emporia added touchdown and
kicked goal. Another touchdown
came in the third and the final coun-
ter in the last quarter.
The impression here following the
play of the collegians is that the men
who beat Little and Welsh out of
places on the All-Kansas this year
will have to step out and show some
fancy play. However it shouldn't be
taken for granted that Coach Henry
has altogether a two-man team. The
backfield stars are backed by good
field are no slouches with the ball and
there are several powerful bulwarks
in the line.
Ottawa has a bigger team than usu-
al, but the men are still suffering from
their "shots" and were not as strong
as they will be in their next game.
The Emporia team had played before
this season, but it was Ottawa's first
game, and Lieutenant Schabinger has
had little time to work with the ath-
letes. However, the material is here
and Lieutenant Schabinger, who is
giving his coaching services, expects
to have an eleven that will make Karl
Schlademan's Baker boys look to their
laurels when the rival elevens get to-
gether in their annual battle. The

CAPTURED BY THE INDIANS

Mary lived at a fort. There were
many Indians at that time. One
day Mary and her playmate, Jean,
went outside the fort to pick some
flowers. There was wood close
by and Jean suggested going there
While they were picking flowers,
little Indian boy, the chiefs son,
stepped out and grabbed Jean,
Mary was so frightened that she
screamed and tainted. The boy
and his companion took the girls to
the Indian camp and gave them
to the chief. The chief gave them
to his wifes sister and she brought
them up as little Indian girls.
Many years passed and Jean
married the chiefs son and Mary
married his nephew. When their
fathers and mothers came for
them they would not give up their
Indian life. Their parents went
away very sad but in their hearts
they did not blame their children.
Jean had two children, boy
and girl. She died when she was
121 years old. Mary had four
children, two boys and two girls.
She too, died when she was 121
years of age.-La Won Beeson,

MY FIRST DAY IN SCHOOL

My first day in school was a
nice one but the second was not
so nice. School was like play but
when the teacher made me stand
in the corner it was not so much
fun.
The teacher was not very nice
because she was too strict for me.
1t was just like going anywhere
else. l was afraid. / thought !
could do just as l did at home,
but I found out different when the
teacher made me sit in the sand
pile and told me l could not 60
home with the others at noon.
But l got out just as the last
boy was disappearing around the
corned.
When got home my mama said;
well, Tom, how is school?"
l said, "Oh, all right"
In the afternoon | did not want
to go to school very bad OF course
l didn't tell how l had to sit in
the sand pile or stand in the cor
ner.
But when one o'clock came, my
mama said, Nov Tom, if you go
to school today l will have some
thing for you"
So OF course / went to school in
the afternoon and worked pretty
hard and when l came home my
mama gave me a nickel. When
went the next day thought ]
would do the same But that day !
did not get a nickel.-John L. Ely

Mr.. BROWN BEAR

Br. b. Bear.
Now these bears looked very
much alike and they were both
known as bears. So as not to mix
them up when talking about them,
one was known as Mr.. Brown Bear
and the other as Mr.. b. Bear.
To be sure the letter b in the
cousins rame stood for Brown, but
then it vas not used SO there would
be no confusion.
Have you had good nights
sleep?" asked Mr.. Brown Bear.
Fine" said Mr.. B. Bear; How
about yCu?"
"Oh, slept like top
Whats a top, and how does it
sleep?" asked Mr.. B. Bear.
Pm sure l don't know" said Mr..
Brown Bear; but when folks sleep
particularly well. they always say
they slept like tops"
Have you no idea what tops
are?" asked Mr.. B. Bear, who was
quite a curious animal.
Eyes, l think know; and to
know a thing is better than to
have an idea about it,
you said just moment ago
that you didn't know, and so ! ask
ed you if you had an idea"
Il forgot for the moment" eX-
planned Mr.. Brown Bear. 1 am
still so sleepy that l have forgot
ten what | know and what l don't
know"
Tell ne about the top" begged
Mr.. B. Bear.
"A top spins around and around,
and is a toy which children play
with"
"Then what is the sense of say
ing that people sleep like tops?"
asked Mr.. B. Bear. Surely people
do not want to spin around and
around when they sleep. They do
not do that, do they?"
81 am not apt to be around when
folks Sleep" said MIR. Brown Bear.
Il have never been a visitor in
any house. They have never asked
me, and ] don't believe they ever
will"
Cheer up" said Mr.. B. Bear.
"They have never asked me; | am
quite sure of it,
II don't imagine that folks do
spin around when they Sleep" said
Mr.. Brown Bear. 81 guess that say
ing has no sense to it."
1T is pity it is used, then, isn't
it," said Mr.. b. Bear.
ut is" agreed Mr. Brown Bear.
But l don't suppose we can do
anything about it. People are not
apt to ask our advice on any sub
ject; it is funny that they don't
Not SO very funny" shifted Mr..
B. Bear.
by the way" said Mr.. Brown
Bear
by the way" interrupted Mr.. B.
Bear, lis there some way by which
we can find the best food when
spring comes?"
That's only another saying"
said Mr.. Brown Bear. Il meant
that thought of something l want
ed to tell YOU"
Tell me; l am interested in
hearing"
WELL" commenced Mr.. Brown
Bear, "just before went to sleep
for my winter nap l heard some
folks taking as they drove on the
wooded road. II will be glad to
get home" said one.
WHY" asked the other. BE
cause l am as hungry as a bear"
said the first.
"And by listening closely" con-
tinued Mr.. Brown Bear, l discov-
cred that they seemed to think that
to be as hungry as a bear, meant to
be as hungry as possible for a hui
man being to be. Now it annoyed
melt did. In the first place we
sleep all the winter. Now and then
we come out on a good warm day
like this, but we go back to sleep
in no time. We really sleep all
winter. And for that time we don't
eat at all. We live on our own
fat. We have no regular meals,
and for that matter, we don't have
irregular meals
AH, u noor
