Fair Management intends to put on
an eliminating contest in each
county to determine the eligibles for
the big show. We wish to serve
notice right now on the horseshoe
pitchers of Ringgold county that we
have the Ringgold county represen-
tative here in kellerton-Frank
Jackson and son, and if this does
not prove to be satisfactory to any
of the boys of the county, Mr.. jack
son and his son will meet any one
in the county to determine this fact,
of course this preliminary contest
will be put on anyway by some Of
ficial, but we just wanted to give
this notification so it would not
come as such a surprise. Mr.. Jack
son held the championship of the
United States for several years and
lost it last fall through technicality,
and afterward defeated the cham
pion II games out of Is here at
Kellerton. Mr.. Jackson is entered
in another championship game in

the King Penguins, we are; pretty
fine, h~igh-sounding family name"
"And we are known as the Mrs.
King Penguins." said Mrs. Penguin.
ITS funny they called us
queens when they call you kings.
"Of course, 1t doesn't mean that
you are kings and live on thrones and
ear crowns. It's just a name you
have, just a name."
I'm glad" said the King Penguin,
'that / don't have to wear a crown.
What a nuisance it would be. In fact
I'm a simple soul. I'm perfectly
pleased when you call me Mr.. Pen
gum, or your loving mate, rather than
King or Your Honor"
II never heard anyone call you
that" said Mrs. Penguin, "any more
than l ever knew anyone who called
me Your Ladyship."
MY cousin, Mr.. Penguin, known as

Penguin, "also enjoys South Georgia,
as we do. We like living far away.
I've heard there's a state called Geor-
gia in the United States-but that's
not where we re-, and if folks would
care to take out their maps, they'd

There are penguins to be found

In the Southern hemisphere, I believe
1t is called and under the equator we
have cousins known as Gallipoli pen
gums. And there are penguins at the
Cape of Good Hope and the African
coast.
"Ah, yes, we're a large family when
counting all of us and all our rela-
tives besides.
But, don't you think I'm a good
fellow, Mrs. Penguin, said Mr.. Pen
gum, as he stood and looked at his
mate. His black feathers and his
white waistcoat looked smarter and
more handsome than ever to Mrs. Pen

course, you can't do that now, for
you're in the zoO."
0 course, I can't do that now"
said Mr.. Penguin, "but l am telling
you that I'm really a pretty good fel-

What do you mean by after ALP"
asked Mrs. Penguin.
Nothing in particular" said Mr..
Penguin. Its just a way l have Of

And Mr.. Penguin is a pretty good
fellow, too, for he carries the eggs

for Mrs. Penguin in his pouch. after
she has laid them.
BE does enjoy a good, jolly sort of
a fight, and he doesn't care whether
he is carrying an egg or so, or not!
But it doesn't make any difference,
for, though he may fight and have
q regular penguin battle, still the eggs
never break, safely kept In the soft
skin, which makes a little place for
the egg between his feet.
So Mrs. Penguin had to admit, and
I'll the Mrs. Penguins have to admit,
that the Mr.. Penguins are pretty good
fellows. They may fight in a fun
making sort of way, but the eggs of
the little penguins are always, always
safe with them!

STRIVE TO HALT
0.K.ON MEXICO
Carranza Adherents Here
Work Against Recognition
Of New Regime.
CBy Public Ledger Service. }

Disgruntled Mexican politicians
especially those who enjoyed the
favor Of CarranZa, and some Ameri-
can interests whose concessions in
Mexico were valuable only so long
as the Carranza group was in con-
troll. are making desperate efforts to
prevent the recognition Of the new
government according to informa-
tion obtained here yesterday.
Propaganda seeking to persuade
American officials of the weakness
OF the existing government. 1t is
stated. is being circulated in this
country, and persistent efforts are
being made to create an impression
OF friction between the leaders Of
the new government. The answer
Of the agents Of Gen Alvaro Obre-
son and President Adolfo de la
Huerta is to cite the absence OF re-
ports OF Americans or other foreign
ers being molested in Mexico. They
contend that the changed condition,
especially in view OF the growing
frequency Of outrages during the
last days Of Carranzista rule. con-
stitutes a remarkable tribute to the
manner in which the new govern
ment has restored order.
Despite repettions of reports OF
disse nsion between President de la
Huerta and Gen. Obregon. 1t is
stated officially that nothing Of the
kind has occurred, and that Gen.
Obregon is certain to be elected
president.
