GR|D!R0N CLAIMS TOLL
OF ELEVEN DEAD FOR
SEASON JUST CLOSING

Chicago, Nov. 2~7.-Football exacted
"A toll OF IL victims during the 1920
season which closed with Thanksgiv-
ing day games, according to reports
to the Associated Press today.
The number Of deaths was fiYe
more han in 1919, and one above the
list Of two years ago, There were
II lives lost during the 1917 season,
II in 1916 and 10 in 1915. The ma
jority OF the youths killed this season
were high school players who may
have entered the scrimmage with only
a limited knowledge of the game. Only
two of the dead We're members of
college aggregations, two on college
class teams. One boy, IL years old,
was killed in "A game of the sand
lot variety. Six Of the victims were
members of the high school elevens.
Defenders of the sport pointed to
the fact that not "a fatality occurred
in the big universities of the
under expert physical direction and
coaching. The development is Of the
open style of play, instead Of the
smashing game of a dozen years ago,
and has improved with heavily padded
uniforms, and heavy head gears, thus
eliminating much Of the danger, ac-
cording to football experts.

OLD TIM Frs SAY
THAT BOOZE CANNOT
Be FOUND HERE NOW

When Sheriff Garrett announced
several days ago that Ardmore and
Carter county was going to he CLOSED
territory for the booze peddler. the
tinhorn gambler. and the undesirable
citizen, generally. there were some
Skepticism shown over the probable
result of his ukase, but there is none
now and whatever the conditions are
in other sections of the county, the
fact is sure that the lid is on in Ard
more, and apparently on to stay, as
it is impossible to purchase a drink
of the fluid of joy from any of the
old retailers who flourished here in
the past.
One citizen who is we'll known to
every one in the city. b~ootleggers and
others, wagered with a friend that
he could purchase anything he want
ed, and had money to pay for, in IN
quantity, and could get it at any of
the old haunts so familiar to those
who in the past liked to look at the
rising sun through the bottom Of a
small glass. The bet was made and
the two started out to get the evil
dence.
All familiar haunts were invaded,
and the old timers interviewed in
their search for wet goods, but at
every turn they met the nothing
doing sign, and were told that orders
from the big law" was to close, and
closed their places were, M going
to remain so, and that they as indi-
viduals were seeking a buyer for
their furniture and fixtures, or were
merely holding down the place because
the rent was paid and they had moth
ing else TO do.
Sheriff Garrett states that he does
not mean to infer that he can stop
men from drinking, but he does say
that he is making ii as hard as pos
sible for them TO get liquor to drink,
'the hip pocket merchant is with us
and always will be-" he says, 'and
he is an exceedingly lard animal to
catch as his stock is contained in a
small flask thai he peddles out in
wagon yards and behind vacant build
ings to those who have nerve enough
to try his stuff and hope TO survive
The oil field districts are the hard
est to handle for the reason that
there are so many avenues for whisk-
ey to trickle through. but the sheriff
and his crew of deputies are making
it hard on all they do get hold of
and they have managed to get hold
of quite a few individuals recently
who have spent, some time in the
county Jail and paid stiff fines as
well.

ORDER MORE CAKES;
BUTTER WILL Be A
WHOLE LOT CHEAPER

Chicago, Nov. 27.-Butter is and
will probably continue considerably
cheaper this year than last while eggs
are higher and will probably continue
higher, according to j. 5. Brown.
Chicago representative Of the L. :.
bureau of markets in charge of dairy
products.
This contrasting situation Mr.. Brown
attributed to Il surplus of butter, due
chiefly TO lack of export trade and "
heavy import trade in butter, and on
the other hand TO an actual shortage
of eggs due TO small production.
The situation in butter and eggs
at the present time is n little different
than il is in other food commodities,
because Of the fact that the public
is now dependent for adequate sup
ply on stocks put away in storage
months ago when prices were all
high the agricultural official said.
Present prices are therefore on that
basis.
There is a very liberal supply of
storage butter in the country. There is
more on hand now than a year ago
at this time. 1t is being taken out of
cold storage and used, but it is not
going out as rapidly as last year.
Export business in butter was good
in 1919 but it is poor this year, and
in addition butter is being received
from, New Zealand, Denmark and Ar
g~entina Receipts Of Danish butter
have already made a heavy showing.
Fresh butter is selling at prices 10
cents under last year and storage but
ter is now losing its holders money.

What is the difference? The same sun,

Lord Byron was the most fated, court
ed bon vivant of all Europe. No other
man went o;tener to kings palaces,
to royal ~banquets. He wrote his own
epitaph in four lines:
My days are in the sere and yellow

gone,
The worm, tho canker and the grief.
Are mine alone.
Other .trees were beautiful with
leaves and golden fruit. Yet after a
life spent in the pursuit of pleasures

worms eating out his heart. The world
had been at his feet and he had
never denied himself the qualification
OF any passion He had been untrue
to his own knowledge of eternal
laws.

Thirty years ago a man contracted
tuberculosis. He was ordered 10 a
milder climate. He sold their little
home, turned the most of the money
over to his wife and went to Atlanta
hoping for health and "A job. But
everyone could see that he was struck
by death. He walked the streets many
a weary day without success. He kept
a brave heart. His wife did not know
even when he was sending money
back 10 her, that he had taken il
from what he had to live on. With
the ebbing of his strength he came TO
his last piece of money, a five dollar
bill. He had folded il to mail to her
and a writing a letter. AS he wrote
Dear Sweetheart, | am doing my
best" the red flood anne from his lips
and covered the paper. When the
neighbors reported, Frank l.. Stan

tuition, was the first in the room. He

read the unfinished letter. That night
he wrote the sweetest poem ever pub
lished in America.
