MATCH LOST
Monongah Glass Team is
Winner With Mining
Machinery Team.

Ma2eis merry men from the West
Virginia were among the absent ones
when the roll was called at the
bowling session last night and so the
game in which they were to have tax
en- part went to Midwest by default
Mapel wanted to roll all three games
himself. but this was denied him be-
cause it was thought he might over
exert himself, catch cold and get the
"flu" and the FLU" is much more
serious now than is the days before
the death of John BarIeycorn. In the
days before the passing OF ]. B. a
man had much better chance to
keep up with the "flu,' but now Il
gets fellow down most any time.
So as we were saying, the authorities
would not let Mapel take any chanc-
es, and he had to submit to passing
the game over to the Midwest.
However, there was one battle dur.
ing the evening when the Mining Ma
chine and the Monongah Glass had
q round or two, the Classics taking
two out Of three games. Gidel do

CHICAGO, Jan. Clothing prices
this Spring will be from Is to 40
per cent higher than at present,
according to H. R. King, of Seattle,
who addressed the National Retail
Clothiers Association today.
Mr.. King said that the increase
would come from a completely Of
causes, chief Of which was increased
pay to workers. Labor had gone up
2f5 per cent since 1914, he said. Mr..
King also cited the decrease in
working hours and the increase OF
Australian wool prices from $1.15 a
pound in. 1914 to $40.
"The coming year will be crucial
one for clothing merchants" he said.
ut will not SO much be question Of
making money as to keep the business
from going to the rocks"
Colonel Fred Levy, Of Louisville,
declared that II there was to be an
investigation Of clothing costs 1t
should begin with the wooden
manufacturers and be carried on from
them to the retailers, instead Of tho
other way.

The first bulldog appears to have
been bred from the English mastiff,
and by process OF systematic selection
in breeding a smaller and more active
dog than the mastiff was evolved. The
smaller dog was found to be better
suited for sport than the heavier and
slower mastiff. The bull-baiting dog,
without doubt, required an inordlnate
amount of gameness.

Next week will be a quiet one in
the local basketball world. Saudy's
lads are going out of town most Of
the week.
Heisman, the new coach at Penn,
who taxes the place of Folwell, has
the following interesting things to say
about himself, which at least would
give the impression that he has faith
in himself:
81 know nothing of the men who
play at Penn; ] know nothing of the
conditions that l am told have exist
ed here; know nothing of factions.
of influence, of systems. of anything
that has happened in the past few
years. All know is that l am going
to play the best football players that
are eligible for the Penn team, and
am going to give Penn not only a
winning football team, but one that
will be All-Pennsylvania, and all in
love with football for footballs sake.
What expect to do is briefly this:
| will give Penn the best possible
team that the material permits;
will make fighting aggregation, one
that will know and show good sports
manship. will give my college team
that will reflect credit on 1t. Further
than that promise nothing l may
have winning teams. may not. But
venture to say that when my career
here is summed UP Penn will have
nothing, TO regret.
81 cannot say what system will
use. have no set system. l find that
football rules change so constantly that
it is difficult to have one set method
of play. adapt myself to the rules
and the men whom I must use for the
team. make the play f"r the play
ers, not the players for the plays. |

Owing to the fact that the weather
was bad and so much sickness pre-
walls only few of the members of
the baseball committee were able to
turn out for the meeting last night,
and action therefore was postponed
until the first of the week. 1t is likely
that every effort will be made to
hold the meeting Monday night.

Hastings Approves
Cattle Show With
Southeastern Fair

The wisdom Of holding the nation
al hog and cattle show in connection
with the Southeastern fair, October
1926, is being demonstrated daily,
President II. G. Hastings declares.
1.-THE wonderful strides made in
the production Of pure-bred cattle
and swine makes the new feature of
the fair very timely and it will with
out doubt do more to double meat
production than any one thing that
offering $1,000 in the fat classes
alone and are introducing a feature
of the international live stock show
in putting on for load classes.
ALREADY the whole southeast
seems to have caught the spirit; not
only will all the established breed
ers be here, but some who are just
going into business and the demand
for calls and pens is very likely to
exceed our plans for accommoda-
tons.
with threee international grand
champion animals in the section
served by the Southeastern fair there
shown. there should not be num-
Der added this year.
1.-THE work of building our railway
to connect with the belt line Is pro
crossing very nicely, and we will
have the best facilities in the coun-
try when this is completed. The live
stock will be unloaded right along
side the pens and will have accom-
modations for bathing and caring for
the stock, not in use heretofore:
I'm order that we may exhibit
the proper cooperative spirit, we
will release all live stock exhibits
on Saturday, October %, at 4 p. M,
in order that our stock may scatter
and show at some of the smaller
fairs, which otherwise could not
have good exhibits. This feature of
our arrangements is as effective as

CONSERVATION IN
BUYING SHOWN BY
FINANCIAL REPORT

Conservative buying by wholesalers
and retailers, continued cut-price
sales of all commodities, fair co1lec-
lions, increased activity of the boil
weevil and excessive rains are re-
ported in the summary of financial.
for the week ending Wednesday by
j. e. G. Pedder, southeastern man.
Gger of the Bradstreet company.
Mr.. Pedder's report follows:
There is little difference in whole
sale and retail business from last
week. Wholesalers. report continued
conservatism in placing orders for
future delivery. Merchants appar-
entity are buying only for immediate
needs. Large local retail dealers con-
tinue to advertise extensively and
conduct cut price sales, especially in
wearing apparel lines, thereby slim
ulating trade to some extent.
"CollectionS are somewhat slow, at
tributed partly to congested trans
portation facilities, and smaller mer-
chants are not inclined to make pay
ment on purchases before the goods
are received No immediate relief is
expected. Building has slowed up to
ability to obtain material and to the
high prices of same. Money is tight
and has aided in causing a break in
the building program.
considerable rain during the past
week with moderate temperatures
was not altogether favorable for cot
ton. It's progress was only fair, and
the crop is late. Cotton under normal
conditions can stand great deal of
rain in July and August and yet
have time to mature a good crop.
There is a complaint of consider
able shedding, and weather condi-
lions have greatly favored the boil
weeyil. Corn is practically safe but
the crop is below normal. Sweet po-
tatoes promise to very large yield
Peanuts are doing we'll. Pastures,
hay and forage crops are good"

Last fall had the Flu and it
left me in a very weak and rundown
condition with no appetite at all and
such q weak stomach that even the
smell OF cooking made me sick. I
was awCully nervous and night after
night | couldn't sleep to do any good.
l would get up in the mornings tired
and worn out and was so short OF
breath that half hours job would
tire me as much as a whole days
work use to. In fact I finally had to
give up a good job.
when I first started on Tanlac Z
was working for the Goodyear Rub
Der Co. in Akron, Ohio. l decided
that anything that was being talked
about so much was at least worth
an honest trial. 1t worked like q
charm in my case. 1t helped me right
from the start and by the time
had taken my third bottle all of
my troubles were gone and I found
myself we'll and strong again.
while in Akron my wife got SO
she couldn't eat. She lost weight and
got very pale. Tanlac was doing me
so much good I got her to try it and
after taking two bottles, she is look
splendid and she looks like differ
ent person. It certainly has proven
it's worth to both of us and has come
up to every word 1 have read and
heard about it."
The above statement was made by
A. o. Hunter, 106 w. 7th ST., Gin
cinnati, O., well-known mechanic
now in the employ of the Cincinnati
Abattoir Co.
Tanlac is sold by all leading drug1
gists.
