Cottonwood Wins Ball Game

About 400 people witnessed the
ball game here Sunday between
the Fem and Cottonwood teams.
1t was a rafting good game from
start to finish, and was won by
our home team by a good margin.
Bert Reed umpred the game.
The total receipts from admis-
sions to the game amounted to
$96.15, and the net proceeds
$89.60, which was turned over to
the local Red Cross Chapter.
The game at Fem a week be-
fore by the same teams netted $50
for the Red Cross. Both teams
deserve a great deal of credit for
their efforts in behalf of this most
noble cause.-the Red Cross.
A game with the Winona team
has been arranged for a week
from next Sunday-on June 9th,
when the Cottonwooders will
play at that place. The band
and a large crowd will go from
here.

Lee E. Thomas, well known to ring
followers as Sailor" Thomas, now
supervising agent of the State of Mis-
souri, for the Mutual Life Insurance
Company of New York, has been in
Columbia for the last few days on
business and is seriously considering
establishing a branch Office here
Thomas is reticent about his ex-
perience in the ring, thinking that
in most peoples mind any accomplish
ments in that line brand one as un-
desirable. He is one man that quit
the game without a defeat, giving it
up because of his mothers wish that
he enter what she thought a more re-
spectacle profession.
Thomas was in the Navy four years
and there learned to use his fists.
After getting a local reputation he
engaged in professional matches. His
ring career lasted for nearly three
years and in that time he fought some
of the best welterweights in the
world, on shipboard, in the United
States and in foreign countries.
In 1911 he gained the title of welter-
weight champion of the Atlantic fleet
by beating "Al" Theel in a five-round
bout in Cuba, and since that time
worked out with such men as Marcel
Moreau, the French welter champion.
whom he knocked out in twelve
rounds; Cal" Delhanty, champion
welterweight of the English army and
navy. whom he beat in eleven rounds
and 'Packy" Mcfarland. whom he
fought to a ten-round draw at the
coliseum in Fall River, Mass, in De-
cember, 1912.
Thomas won most of his matches
by the knock out route. and generally
fought in short bouts, only once going
over ten rounds. His shortest battle
was with Young" Garvey, whom he
put away for the count thirty-eight
seconds after he stepped into the ring.
Burt Breen he slowed away in less than
one round and Young" Lowenthal,
who had championship hopes in 1910,
he knocked out in four rounds. Terry
Brooks also went the knockout route
in five rounds at Brokline, Mass, in
1911
MY last Professional fight was in
1912 in the barber shop of the Brook
line hospital, after l had recovered |
from an operation on my nose," said
Thomas. "'AP Case, champion of the
Pacific coast feet, had heard in some
way that / was there and arranged to |
work out with me in practice, as we
both had matches coming on in about
a week.
"A good crowd had gathered and l
went through my regular rope and
bag exercises. Then we put on the
gloves At the first break Case whip
ped over with his right, hitting me on
the nose and In every other break

way in the East, so / called him on II,

duty. A captured German officer says,
The death of one army surgeon equals
the loss of 500 American soldiers, and
a stretcher-bearer counts as much as
sixteen infantrymen."
Paris is not being besieged and yet
the long-range gun is firing blindly
at the huge target with no other OBJ
ject than to terrorize by a daily
slaughter of non-combatants-of
women. of children, of old men and
cripples. This is characteristically
German; they see no reason for con-
fining their slaughter to combatants.
We are non-combatants and the only
reason we are not in immediate danger
is that we are too far from the Kaiser
at present. II a Krupp gun could be
made that would reach America,
America would be shelled.
1t is a part of the German system
to make war on non-conbatants; to
make war on you and your family.
Have you done your part in fighting
the Kaiser? Have you bought Liberty
Loan bonds to the limit? AS nom
combatant you are subject to the at
tacks of the Kaiser; have you done
your part in putting down forever
his attacks?

WHEAT REGULATIONS STRICTER
Only Those Having Corn Ground at
Mill Can Buy without Substitutes.

Only those who have had their corn
ground into meal at a mill, can buy
-four without substitutes in the future.
The Missouri Division of the Food
Administration has found it necessary,
on account of its abuse by some con-
sumers, to withdraw the privilege
whereby a purchaser could. sign
certificate that he had a certain
amount of wheat -four substitutes on
hand and was consuming them at the
rate of one pound of substitutes for
every pound of wheat flour consumed.
Flour may be sold without an equal
amount of substitutes only If the pur-
chaser presents to the retailer a GER
tificate from a miller showing that
this miller has ground, or exchanged
and delivered to the customer a speci-
fed amount of corn into meal. The
dealer must indicate on the certificate
that the holder of the certificate has
bought a certain amount of wheat
flour.
The dealer selling the flour must
then indorse the certificate, take it up
and on the following Saturday send
it to his county food administrator
This certificate is good for only one
-four purchase not exceeding the
amount the consumer is allowed to
buy.
Full explanation of this new rule
together with the certificates can be
obtained from the county food ad-
ministrators.

NOT SPENDTHRIFT, BUT SAVERS

A unique feature evidenced in this
war is the interest the children of
the nation are taking in it. Today the
country is filled with little patriots.
They are daily taking their place on
the firing line" and are helping to
provide for the American soldiers that
the road to Berlin may be realized and
that the crown of victory may come
to America and her Allies.
They are not worrying about being
penniless but find pleasure in invest
ing their money in Liberty Bonds and
thrift stamps. Yesterday it was a
penny for the candy store, but today
it is 25 pennies to purchase a thrift
stamp.
Thrift is becoming one of the princi-
pies of the young Americans life.
The investments of the childrens saw
ings in thrift stamps and Liberty
Bonds is a clear saving and the
use of the money which would other
wise be squandered on trivial things
The children are becoming savers and
are not learning the ways of the
spendthrift. 1t is to be hoped that
this thrift taught and practiced by
the children will have a lasting effect
upOn the national character of the
country

WHAT OF COLUMBIA?

"Of course" said Columbia, when
the campaign for the Third Liberty
Loan was begun ten days ago, "of
course we shall oversubscribe our
quota. But what of the rest of the
county? The county districts are pa
triotic, but are they fully informed
of the Governments great need? We
in the cities read daily papers, and
hear speakers, and see soldiers. We
know what is required to win the war.
But how about the farmers?"
Well, how about the farmers? LooF
at the daily returns of bond sales.
Every day brings news of one or more
country school districts that have ex-
ceeded their quota.
And Columbia? Columbia. home Of
the State University, center of the
states educational system, the COM
munity that above all others in the
state should be fully alive to the is
sues of the war and the need of pa
triotic service and sacrifice-Columbia
is still far short of its goal
Is Columbia going at a jog trot
through the rest of the campaign and
then turn in to the Government the
bare minimum that is asked for?
Look at Harrisburg. Maybe some
people didn't expect much of Harts-
burg, because the people there, nearly
all of them, have German names.
Harrisburg was among the first two or
three districts to oversubscribe, and
it is still handing over its dollars
for democracy. The names in Harts-
burg may be 80 per cent German, but
the people there have proved that
they are 100 per cent American.
In a prominent place in the new
State Capitol building there will be
hung a permanent memorial of the
third loan campaign. On it will be
inscribed the names of all the coun-
ties, in the order of amount by which
they have exceeded their quota in
number of dollars and number of sub
scribers.
Thirty counties of the state have
already oversubscribed, and eight of
them already obtained the necessary
number of individual subscribers-7b
per cent of the 1910 populatiOn-tO
gain the honor flag.
These counties are assured of
place on the State Honor Roll. What |
of Boone? Are such loyal communi-
ties as Harrisburg and Jacobs and
Keene and Browns and Rocheport and
Grindstone and Warren and other
country districts to be deprived of the
fruit of their efforts through luke
warmness here in Columbia? For no
district can receive an individual
honor flag. no matter how fine its rec
ord, unless the county as a whole
comes up to the mark.
1t rather looks as if We ought to
get the farmers into town to stir up
Columbia.
