in fast and interesting game,
which resulted in a victory for the
home team. The features of the
game were team work on part of
the McLemoresVille girls, the for
ward passing by Misses Belew and
Newsom, and the goal shooting of
Miss Below. When the ball was
first tossed up in center Hunt
ingdon player never got hands on
it before it went through McLe-
moresville's goal. Miss Belew made
four field goals and four from the
foul line. Miss NewSom made one
field goal and one from the foul
line. Miss Conyers for Hunting

two from the foul line. Miss Britt
made one from the foul line, and
one point was awarded Hunting
don on account of a foul made by a
McLemoresville player when Hunt
ingdon was shooting for goal. The
final score was Is to 6. 1t was a

An honest mans the noblest work
of Cod Christmas morning marked
the passing of one of our best citizens,
Horace F. Moore, man of integrity
and ability, public spirited citizen,
an estimable friend Our community
has sustained great loss in that one
has gone who performed many pub
lie service efficiently and gladly. Dur
ing recent years he served the town
in nearly every capacity, his record as
representative in the state legislature
being especially noteworthy, rejecting
honor upon his town as well as upon
himself. Even when the summons
came, Mr.. Moore was Jealous for the
success of the Red Cross drive for
which he served as chairman two sue
cessive years. The large gathering at
his funeral on Saturday and the pro-
fusion of beautiful flowers attested
the love and esteem in which he was
held. Rev. Edwin Genge, assisted by
Rev. S. M. Smith Of the Disciples
Church, Of which Mr.. Moore had been
a member for many years, spoke most
fitting and comforting words. Mr..
Moore was in his Gath year. He is
survived by his wife and four sons,
Stanley L., Of Jersey City; T. Carl Of
Salem; Jay S. and H. Lee Of Rupert,
The latter having just returned from
service in the U. S. Navy.

Kidney Pills helped me from the very
first and finally Strengthened me out
in good shape. Ny back grew strong
and free from pain, my kidneys acted
