There are many outstanding fea-
tar-s OF Miss Thompson's career TO
wh.ch Ardmore people can point with
pride.
\ true produc, of Ardmore public
schools. her record shows that dur
ing ii years n the Ardmore schools
she did not miss one day, nor was
she t1r6y one time The same has
held true in her business and profess
sional career. During her school days
she was a close student of music and
following her graduation here, she
went to Sherman, Texas, and Chicago
and began her work as teacher Of pi-
ano. Being very popular with the
younger set and al all times willing
to give of her talent to any club,
social function or mems business
meetings many demands were made
upon her, but the same punctuality
which characterized her school days
was followed out in her business life
and no matter the demand Ann
Thompson gained the reputation OF
keeping all appointments and Of be-
ing capable OF meeting all emergen-
cies.

school children have of what tenacity
of purpose can accomplish. Ann

not due entirely to her God given
talent, but also TO her constant close
and purposeful study and the devel-
opment Of that talent.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, Oct. 22.-Active buying for export together with optimistic advices in regard to prospective settlement of the British coal strike led to sharp advances today in the wheat market Prices clos ed strong, to 6 1-2- cents net higher with December POP to POP 1-4 and March 195 3-4 to 196 14. Corn gained 1 to 1 1-2 and oats 1-2 to 3-4@7S cents. In pro- visions the outcome varied from forty cents decline to 25 cents advance.
 It was estimated that export purchas- ing totaIed fully 100000 bushels. Most of this aggregate was for shipment by way of the Gulf of Mexico to Belgium France, Italy and Switzerland. Liberal buying of flour for Greece and Sweden was also reported. Highest prices of the day, which were reached just before the close, came after many fluctuations due more or less to bearish views early about the British strike outlook f1attering crop reports from Argentine and gossip that rural offerings in Kansas were the largest of the season. On the other hand, evi. dence was noted of much improved de- mand from domestic milling sources.
 Corn and oats were governed chiefly by the action of the wheat market announce ment of libera, export clearance of corn was a separate bu1lish influence. Tenn porarily, oats touched the lowest point in recent years. Fresh breaks in the value of hogs brought about considerable liquid ation by holders of provisions.

For the second time this season, V. F. \. win engage Windham High in battle shich should prove satisfying to even the hard-boiled variety of spectator. It was only a short while ago that the two teams fought to a 6-s tie in Willimantic, neither team appearing to have any advantage at the time.
 However. last Tuesday Coach Mckay spilled a surprise by defeating Westerly with a team that could hardly be recog- aized as the one that had been held by windham to a tie Buck Donahue, coach Of the Windham eleven, saw the contest Tuesday and no doubt he learned some thing which sent him away worried. He knows full well that he will be up against something today.
 Coach Mckay gave his men light drill Friday afternoon and he seemed pleased with their condition. Quintillian is again In uniform after an absence caused by a bruised shoulder. The coach has a bunch of new formations up his sleeve which he may or may not use today, depending on tho course the game takes. If things run along nicely, he may save his plays for e more important game.
 The following will probably be the lineup to start: Ends, Young, McNamara tackles. Marshall. Brown; guards, Vel iington. Learned; center, Sage; quarter back. whitney; halfbaolxs, Reid, Will liauls: fulIback, Boynton.
 The game will begin promptly at 3.15
