stalled and the place is model of
neatness. Mr.. Bartling, who will
have charge Of the ice cream depart
ment, has had ten years experience
which is sufficient guaranty that the
product will meet the most exacting
requirements.
In addition to manufacturing ice
cream, which will be sold at whole.
sale to local and outside dealers, the
firm intends to deliver clarified and
pasteurized milk and cream to all
parts of the city at retail. Those de.
string to do so may also secure but.

provement.
The Times bespeaks liberal pat.
ronage for the new firm on the par,

STORY OF A TEN DOLLAR BILL
Number of People Willing to Adop,
the "Orphan"

j. H. Coulter imagined he was the
original "luck-pup'' last Friday morn
ing when he spied poor, lonesome lit
tie orphan ten dollar bill lying in the
street in front Of the bowling alley,
but developments since the big find
have convinced him that owning a
ten dollar bill has its drawbacks.
The first man to lay claim to the
bill was Bunk Roberts, who based his
argument on the fact that he had
once owned ten spot, but it had
burned a whole in his pocket and es-
capped for parts unknown. It is rath-
err unusual for a man running for
mayor to put in any bogus claims
until after he is elected, SO Mr.. Coul-
ter decided that he would have to look
further for the real owner.
Sam Reko thought he saw an op-
portunity to gain possession of the
money, so he went before, notary
public and made an attempt to serve
la writ of attachment; failing in this
he finally admitted that possibly he
had spent his own ten dollar bill for
ice cream or something.
Ike Bunker, not to be outdone, also
claimed the bill, but Coulter said Ike
never had owned that much money
in his life, so he paid no attention to
him.
Deputy Sheriff Charley Schill
thought the money would look better
in his own pocket, but he was little
more diplomatic about it than the
rest and offered to split it fifty-fifty
with the finder. Even this failed to
win the pot.
The latest claimant is Johnny En-
ger. After bowling about 5000 games
Of ten pins, he was paid his percent
age, which amounted to $11.35. Grab
bing the money and his best girl, the
two repaired to the City Restaurant
to enjoy one of the feeds for which
Ike is justly famed. John rushed up
to the cashiers desk after the meal
was finished and was about to deposit
his money on the show case with a
great flourish when he discovered to
his astonishment that his financial
status had become greatly debated
owing to the disappearance of the ten
dollar bill. Ike is a good hearted
cuss and offered to charge it up to
profit and loss, but John produced his
check book and liquidated the ac-
count.
Mr.. Coulter claims he is not salts
fed that any of the claims so far
made are valid and for several days
he considered sending the money to
the heather Chinese. The real owner
Of this bill may obtain same by call
ing at this Office, proving property

Devil VIII Be Eathroned.

According to recent press reports,
coterie of American millionaires
have purchased an island of the Ba-
hama group, As miles off the coast
of Florida, for the purpose of found
ing an American Monte Carlo. Chat
ing under cur prohibition law, anti
race track gambling law and other
similar laws that curb the appetites
and passions of blase element of
our citizenship, whose delight it is to
revel in excesses of all sorts, these
men propose to establish a domain of
their own, where they can indulge
without let or hindrance. The follow
ing taken from press dispatch gives
an insight into the plans of the pro-
moters of this undertaking:
"Upon this newly acquired terri
tory, far removed from the prohibi-
ltion laws of any country, the pur-
chasers plan to erect establishments
for the manufacture and sale of in
toxicants of all kinds, to build race
tracks where unrestricted racing may
be held, a stadium for prize fights, to-
gether with sumptuous hotels and all
other conveniences for the comfort
and entertainment of their patrons.
"Four large steamships, each ac-
commodat:rg 1,50O passengers are to
ply between Palm Beach and the Is
land, according to the plans of the
promoters, as we'll as specially built
airplanes."
In projecting evil upon such a
large scale, these men feel secure 45
miles out at sea, but in thus enthron-
ing the devil they should bear in
mind that "man proposes and God
dispcses." In their drunken revels
hundreds felt secure aboard the Gun
sinkable" Titanic on that fateful
night but almost without warning
they were swallowed up by the icy
waters of the ocean. Having chosen
and purchased an island of the sea,
far from the annoyance of con5ti-
tuted authority, this group Of mil
lionaires may feel secure, forgetting
that "Ghere is a Divinity that shapes
our ends"

Give Thanks To-Morrow.

It matters not how pressing your
engagements tomorrow, whether
they be social, of a business nature
or merely pleasure seeking, do not
fail to raise your eyes heavenward
and devoutly give thanks to the
Great Giver of every good and per-
feet gift for the many blessings
which He has vouchsafed to you dur
ing the past year. While we are pass
ing through a season in which the
Lord seems to have withdrawn his
loving favor, yet who knows but that
it is indeed a blessing in disguise.
teThe Lord loveth whom He chasten-
eth," and as an earthly father in love
chastens a disobedient child, bestow-
ing a real blessing, as realized by the
child in after years, so does our
Heavenly Father, through chasten-
ing restrain US and bring US from
wandering afar back to a realiza-
ton Of our dependence upon Him.
Limit Of Wickedness Reached.
History, unfortunately, repeats
itself in the wicked and degrading
things of the world as much as in the
pure and beautiful and wholesome
things. In the early days of the hu-
man race certain cities became so
unspeakably wicked and debauched
that Gods curse was pronounced up
ON them, and it seems that some mod
ern cities are as completely lost to all
decency IS were those spoken of in
holy @rit.
According to press dispatches, Par
is is but little removed from the Tyre
and Sidon of old. The extreme de-
pravity of Paris finds expression in
or is reflected by some of the new
dances, one of which has been called
the. "Adam and Eve Hug" Those who
participate in this dance at the thea
tres "appear almost totally uncloth-
ed," and the dispatch further states
that .1the boxes of the theatre are
nightly thronged with befurred and
bejeweled women Of society"
As long as such state of deprav-
ity and Generalization exists in
Paris there is no hope for France.

Crimsons Closing Out 1927
 Season m the Crescent City

New Orleans, December 2.-(Spe- cial. 1.-The Crescent City of the south will Saturday be the battle field of one of the closing games of the 1921 football season when the Crimsons of the University of Ala bama clash with the Green Wave of Tulane university. The Crimsons have arrived in New Orleans and are ready for the fray, their coaches an nounce.
 The university squad consisted of two coaches, two managers and 20 players, led by Captain Clemens, star end of the Crimson eleven. The team Is in fair shape. and Is hopeful of rounding out a none too success full season with victory over the Greenies.
 Lineup Uncertain
 Coach Ken c. Scott. leader of the Crimson invading squad, would not give any light on Alabama's prob able lineup tonight.
 Captain Clemens and Tom Newton. who have been holding down the ends ip good style this season, will prob ably start at their regular posts, the only possibility of a change at this position being the substitution of Ga- zolla has been playing a nice game golls has been playing a nice game at end. and is sure to get in part of the game against Tulane. members of the Crimson squad say

Ensley R. o. T. (. To Meet Central
 On December 10

On December 10 Central High and Ensley High will clash for the second time this year in football. but this time. instead of it being the two varsity teams locking horns, it will be battle between teams made up of members from the R. O. T. c. units of the two schools.
 At present the whole of Central High school is all 'het" up over the class football being played there now and the Central -Ensley affair is be- ing put off until December 10, so as not to interfere with the class foot ball. However, both teams have al- ready started practice and are going through hard workouts daily in preparation for the fracas. which is creating almost as much interest and rivalry as the big clash between the two schools. No one that has made a letter on the first team is eligible to go out for these teams, but, never theless, fans will get chance to see a bunch of boys in action that really are perfectly capable of playing brand of ball almost equal to that of any high school team.
 With all of these men working hard daily for the R. o. T. c. fracas, the two teams should go out on the field ready to wage powerful scrap. The proceeds of the game will go | to a fund for the drum and bugle corps of the two schools. This is a much addition to the activi- ties now going on m the two schools. and fans will be helping a good cause along when they go out to see the lgridders perform.
