found for the plaintiff in the case of
X. M. Ross VS.. Joel Parks; the con-
trovesy arising over the sale of an
automobile to Mr. Ross by Parks pre-
vious to his death last year. The
plaintiff alleged that the stipulation of
the sale was to the effect that the ma
chine was to be kept in repair for a
period of a year after the purchase;
that the machine was maintained at
an unexpected cost of $3.50, and in the
meantime Mr.. Parks died. The action
was for the purpose Of recovering
what the plaintiff declared was money
expended for repairs which should
have been borne by the original
owner.
This case was followed by John D.
Goodloe, Jr., VS. E. G. Moore ct al, as
the resule of an alleged agreement
between the plaintiff and defendant
at the time of the sale of the property
the sale of the property of the
Of plaintiffs father, John Goodloe, Sr.,
which was to the effect that land pur-
chased was to be sold to the son at
the figure it brought at the sale. Sub
sequently the plaintiff declared, when
he pressed the purchasers of the land
for the transfer of the property, or a
part of it at the stipulated figure, the
defendants declared that no such
agreement ever existed. The jurors
held that the defendants sell $50 acres
to be plaintiff at the original pur-
chase price.

SERIOUS INROADS
ON railways MADE
Richmond Being Extensively Ad-
vertised By Long Distance
Hauling BY Trucks

Serious jrroads are being made upon
railway freight hauling, it is claimed
through the use of trucks for long
distance hauling and every day is
developing this fact more clear
ly. Richmond is well depre-
sented in this and adjoining states thr-
ough the hauling by truck, which is al
ready more in evidence than usual. If
one had been over in Ohio, or even
Indiana Tuesday, they would have seen
two large trucks one near Cincinnati
and the other near Indianapolis, bear
ing the name of the Sandlin Supply
company, Richmond, Ky. Another
could have been seen in the vicinity of
Lexington. The trucks were enroute,
one from Indianapolis, another from
Eastern Ohio and the other enroute to
Lexington with q load, and it could
have have been seen later, returning
to Richmond heavily loaded This "cou-
try train, as it is called by some, has
been routed here and there, without
the owners realizing the enOrmity of
the business. The demand for hauling
overland has become such that there
is steady line Of trucks going and
coming in all directions. Some OF them
are from Chicago, others from Detroit,
and other distant cities.
Most Of the long hauls are made
with one-way loads to start, but they
seldom get home without having pick
ed up a load CT part of one enroutc,
drivers say The Richmond company
contemplates stai ting ''train" to Ind

sending a number Of drivers to Ind

MODEL HIGH SCHOOL
SWATS WINCHESTER
Visiting Teams Second Attempt
To Beat Locals Was Very
Disastrous

The Winchester High school team,
trounced some time ago by the Model
High school of Richmond, came back
after more Monday afternoon, and got
it. They. are game losers, and al
though they strengthened their team,
carried home defeat which sounded
like a tune of 10 to 3.
The Model High lined up with Dun
away pitching, and pitched some, and
the visitors were first to start the
scoring process which was shortlived,
since after having scored once in the
second inning, they were unable to
perform this feat again until the ar
rival of the final frame when they
brought in pair, but were unable to
cope with the situation, and gave up
the ghost. The game was replete
with good and bad playing, hits and
runs, good spirit and plenty of activ-
ity. When the smoke cleared away,
it was found that the Model team,
which did not start scoring until the
third inning, tok three then and there
and tightened up, taking another in
the fourth and fifth frame and wind
ing up with four in the seventh and
another in the eighth, making total
of ten runs, with twice as many hits,
and six errors to their side Of the
ledger. The visitors changed bat
Ceries time and again in an effort to
get started well, but there was moth
ing doing. They too had a half dozen
errors marked them and claimed
eight hits and the three scores wound
up the important part Of their record.
The boys were all in for good
time and had it. They expected to
play again soon, and assert that they
vii lbe stronger still''. This will be
necessary, since the local aggregation
IS improving wonderfully, according
to athletic manager Mccoy, and their
record shows that there is some very
good timber developing which will
doubtless be heard from later in fast
er company.
The teams lined up as follows:-

CLARK IS COMING
IN "AIL-OF-A-SUDDE PEGGY"


Marguerite Clark is coming to the
local Theatres for Thursday in de
lighful screen comedy called "All-of-
a-sudden Peggy. the title refers to
the vivacious little heroine She is the
daughter of Mrs. O'Mara, widow of a
deceased scientist, and has accom-
panied her mother to Hawkhurst, es-
tate of Lord Crackenthorpe. The
nobleman is writing book on spiders
and has invited Mrs. O'Mara in order
to consult with her. His mother, Lady
Crackenthorpe, however, suspects that
Peggy has designs on him and sum-
mons her younger son, Jimmie, to
divert the girl from her purpose.
He succeeds so well that he falls in
love with her. In reality, Peggy is
trying to arrange a match between
her mother and the lord. Mrs. O'Hara
will not marry as long as Peggy is
unprovided for. So, to promote the
match, the girl pretends to have we'd
ded Jimmie and follows him to his
apartment in London to keep up the
illusion. Matters thereupon get into
complicated mess, but finally turn
out happily for all concerned.
Miss Clarks leading man is Jack
Mulhall and the cast includes Lillian
Leighton, Oral Humphrey, and Ed
die Sutherland. The picture is a
Paramount-Artcraft and was directed
by Walter Edwards. Also "The Lost
City,.
