WANT MORE MEN
is APPEAL OF
SCOUT TROOPS

This week is enlistment week for
the boy scout organization, all over
the nation. Scoutmasters and scouts
are urging others to enlist in the
cause but the most urgent call that
is being Sounded, is not more boys,
but "but more men," who are will
ing, for the boys sake to pay the
price of time and service, who will
practice self-denial, who will main
tain a standard of conduct, and
character of conversation that will
not demoralize the boys ideals nor
lower the Boy Scouts of America
standards
boy scout work is character
building and man without charac-
ter has nothing to offer the boys
with which they may build for the
future" said Rev. VIM. Denham,
scout commissioner.
"Chickasha has many fine men
who could act as scoutmasters and
whose life would be an inspiration
and whose companionship would he
a real pleasure to the scouts, and
what finer form of recreation can
there be for normal, healthy man
than to chum and "hike" with a
bunch of adventurous, fun-loving
boys?
"The Chickasha troop OF boy
scouts need two more scoutmasters
and three assistant scoutmaste.s, a
scoutmaster must be at least q
years and assistant scout master, is
years of age.
Men of Chickasha resp )nG; give
yourself to service that Will court
not only in your own but also in the
life of the boy and the future life
of the boy and the future life of
community and nation. Men and
boys you are called to enlistment"
was the appeal of the scout commits
sioner.

GIVE LECTURES
NON-CHRISlIAN
RELIGION HERE

Next Sunday night at the Congre-
gational church, the pastor will be-
gin a series of three lectures, illus
trated by the use of the stereopti-
con, on non-Christian religions.
The subjects of the series will be
as follows: l. Hinduism, or the
Religion of 100000 Gods. 2.
Buddhism or the Religion of Pessi-
mism. 8. Mohammedanism or the
Religion of Bigotry and Cruelty.
The first of these, which is to be
given next Sunday night, will pic
ture the village life Of India, god
intoxicated, the festival of lights,
devil and snake worship, the hide
GUS holy men of nIdia. Besides
these there will be presented other
views of the gross superstition and
ignorance of the people of India.
THE series will present the priv
ilege of seeing with your own eyes
the three great rivals of Christ, how
these cults have expressed them
selves in architecture, in worship,
and in life. They help us to ap-
preciate what we have been too slow
to enjoy, the great superiority of
Christianity over all other relig-
IONS" said the pastor.
The same series will be. given at
the college Monday nights following
the Sundays they are given at the
church. This arrangement has been
made for the young ladies living at
the college

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to stop itching torture and relieve skin
irritation and that makes the skin soft,
clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin. diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, pim-
pies, rashes, blaclheads, in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is a safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, Sl.00. It will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively

Jersey Title
BY SPICK UALL

COMBATING a successful uphill game
" is the toughest proposition that any
athlete can face. In any contest,
whether staged by two persons or two
teams, if one contender gets a big lead
and ultimately loses this lead he is not
likely to win. The one who shows that
he has the nerve, the skill and the
energy to creep up on the opposition is
almost a sure victor. That was demon
stratcd recently in the final golf match
between Walker, Columbia. and Dean,
Of Princeton. at Merton. when tho lat
ter came from far behind and defeated
the Tigers Representatives for the in
tcrcOllcgiate title. On this occasion
Dean cracked completely when he real
lied that Walker was cutting down his
lead.
But there are occasions when a man
shows superIativc ramncss and grit

BASEBALL AS QUIET
AS NIGHT OF JUNE 30
Trades and Rumors of
Trades, Scandal and
Managerial Changes as
Common as Ball Games
PIRATES REST HERE
BY EDWIN j. POLLOCK


TN THESE rainy days, when st.
Swithin has been holding the center
and both sides of the limelight, base
oall has been as quiet and tame ms a
certain night when June grew into July.
What does n ball game mean to
young athletes and frolicking fans when
lie has been one trade after another
and one scandal on the heels of an
other? Some of these days st. Swithin
will do a jess Willard and all will be
peaceful again.
Ever since Connie Mack startled and
shocked the baseball world with the an
nouncement that he had obtained some
OF his former worlds champions back
again news along the major league cir
cults has been plentiful.
Here arc few of the things that
have happened to the old pastime re-
Gently:
Mack trades Shannon and Roth to
Red Sox for Barry and Strunk.
Barry refuses to report to Athletics
and drops out of baseball temporarily.
Coombs drops managerial reins and
Cravath is appointed manager of Phils.
Phillie players object to change in
managers and threaten to go on strike
Turner. after fifteen years of service
with Cleveland. is released uncondi-
tionally by Fohl and Cleveland fans
raise the roof.
Mays claims he can't get support
from Red Sox and quits club.
Phillies trade Woodward, Jacobs and
Baird to Cardinals for Paulctte and
Meadows.
Giants trade Schupp TO Cardinals for
Snyder.
Red Sox hold meeting and give vote
of confidence to Manager Barrow.
Objection of Cleveland fans to re
lease of Turner forces Foil to resign
as Indian manager and Iris Speaker
is appointed pilot.
Phils play only four games in three
days of one week and win all of them.
PhiIs StartIe Fans
DERHAPS the most startling thing
on the list is the four consecutive
Victories of our Phils. The next thing
we know Connie Mack will leave the
AS and Billy Penn will quit the City
Hall tower.
That Cravath has the Phils stepping
is proved by their record of the two
series. They split two games with the
Reds and took the series of three from
the Cards. The players have broken
away from that losing nonchalance.
They're out to win and they fight for
ball game as if they were on top.
The Pittsburgh Pirates are in our
midst today for three days, and Bez
dek's Buccaneers will be facing diff
ferent set of individuals from the gang
that held the opposition in Pittsburgh
during the last series. The Pirates
have played eight games with the phis
this season and seven have been vic
tories for the Smoky City aggregation.
The Pirates may play here tomorrow
and Wednesday, and then again they
may only rest here if the rain continues
Till We Meet Again
THE hour and twenty minutes that
l. lapsed during the rainstorm at the
Pills park on Saturday was an inter
esting one for three individuals. Aside
from this trio the ballpayers. ground
manicurists, fans and everybody were
bored. To Pasquerello, Mig Clarke and
Jack Miller it meant talk over times
in France.

this trio together for the first time
