QuaHtyRegulates
Prices the World
OUeY

Prices of food StuffS, along with other COM
modities, have taken a. drop from prewar
prices This is a fact we know, but the bet
ter grades show a much smaller decline
than the ordinary stuff, and in consequence
of that fact we do not feel justified in meet
ing the cut prices of our competitors, for
the simple reason we do not use ordinary
food stuffs of any description in our cafe.
This fact should appeal to the average per-
son of even ordinary intelligence for the
simple reason it is pretty poor business to
cheat the best friend man or woman ever
had-their stomach. If you doubt this
your doctor could explain to you that fifty
per cent of your ills arc caused from eating
inferior, poorly prepared food
So when the pedders of the prunes.
The bacon and the ham,
Hit dear old Liberal for feed
Why should they d m?
For at the Sanford New Cafe
You will find good things to eat
And considering quality and service
Their prices can't be beat
The best of eats are none too good,
When you've worked hard all day,
So treat your stomach the square,
You'll find that ii will pay.
You will be free from all kind of ills,
| know this to be true,
You'll love your ncghbor yourself,
And poor old cookcy too,
SO, when you're feeling on the blink
And want something good to eat
The quality is always here,
And the Prices Can't be Beat.

was linemen In motion when they
were pulled out of the line. The East
erners appear TO be using the rule that
one man may be in motion toward his
own goal while the ball Is being put In
play. This rule was to allow a de-
fensiye fullback to run or move back
into position for kick when his side
was about to punt.
Coach Heisman of Pennsylvania Is
working on shift play again this year
and intends to put some new wrinkles
in it known as expansion of an idea.
The idea of the coaches that a play
must stop till an official looks it over
is regarded as joke out here. While
the official is looking it over the other
team is doing the same and shifting
men to meet the attack, for the de-
tenders may be in motion before and
after the ball is snapped, to plan their
think will block an impending inimical
force.
The Maroons have been Quizzed in
rules and those who are lax are sweat
ing blood as they view the scholastic
work and think of porting over rule

Is to talk about them with other play
ers. 1t will not take a man long to
become wise as to the rulings of the

the slate right away. I'd rather have
a hard-boiled Democrat than a yellow
Republican.
'.And when a man comes TO me 10
seek a place and asks what the COM
pensation Is, he also is wiped of the

merely seeking a place, but the man
is worth while who is seeking an OPP
portunity for service, particularly In
this present period of change and re-
construction.
II do not speak in a partisan sense
or in a sense of criticism of anything
that has gone before, but it's no small
problem to put our republic on Its
feet again. and it calls for the service
of every man and woman that is in
terested in his country.

pei of understanding and service, and
venture to say that the greatest
things we shall record in the years OF

that spirit and do these things for
our own people, 1t is not impossible
that this republic can point the world
to a way to better understanding and
TO better order for mankind"

Georgia Wants Farmers National Park

~ EORGIA wants a national park.
r Senator Watson introduced a res
olution adopted by the Georgia
state board of forestry approving the
plans of the State Federation of Wom-
ems Clubs in regard to the establish
ment of a national park in the Appa-
achian mountain region of Georgia. A
large preamble contains facts as fol-
lows:
A farm, for census purposes, is all
the land which is directly farmed by
one person, either by his own labor
alone or with the assistance of MEM
bers of his household or hired en-
ployees.
Georgia, according to the census of
1920, contains 1878 more farms than
the states of Arizona, Colorado, Idaho,
Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and
Wyoming.
Georgia contains 154,213 more farms
than are contained in the states of
Maine, Massachusetts, Vermont. New
Hampshire, Rhode Island and Con-
aecticut. The majority of her 10000
farms is found in the coastal plain of

you're a liar"
This brought the retort:
''You're a id liar" from Mr..
Burke.
The two Representatives moved
toward each other as members rushed
up to restrain them. During the con-
fusion Mr.. Burke shouted at Mr.. Blan-
ton: you're dirty dog"
Both representatives later asked to
have their remarks expunged from the
record and order was restored.
Representative Blanton charged that
the railroad employees were preparing
''for a war to the teeth, and to death"
while members of congress "sit here
like bunch of ninnies."
Mr.. Burke, formerly an active MEM
Der of the conductors brotherhood,
took exception, especially TO figures
quoted by Mr. Blanton as representing
the monthly wages of railroad work
ers, and in this connection charged
the Texas member with making false
statements He also denied Mr.. Blan-

one against the government.

AUSTRALIA FORBIDS
THROWING OF TOWEL
Fighters Second Cannot Offer
Token of Defeat.
Commended That When Boxers Are
Fighting Referee Is Wholly Con-
petent to Judge of Condition
of Each Scrapper.

1t Is learned from Australian pa,
.,ers that a fighters second has no
right to toss towel into the ring as
token of defeat for his man. This
happened when Charles, the French
middleweight, lost to Billy Shade. w.
F. Corbett, in the Sidney Referee, has
this to say regarding the manipula-
zion of the laundry:
"The throwing in of the towel from
the French angle recently caused a
great deal Of talk. In my report OF
the contest 1 referred to stadium
rule which debarred seconds from in
terfering. The referee only was al
lowed TO stop battle. For some time
this provision was rigidly insisted on,
but after a while 1t became more no.
ticed in the breach than the observ-
ance. The management has now de-
cided to prevent an occurrence similar
to that of the other night taking
place in the future. They will not in
terfere with the throwing up of the
wipe while the boxer concerned is In
his corner for the minutes spell I'M
less it appears to them that doing so
Is unwarranted. But no second shall
be permitted to declare his principal
beaten while round is In progress.
1t is contended, and correctly, that
when boxers are fighting the referee
sees as much as the seconds and is
equally, or more, competent to form
an opinion as to whether one or the
other man is in such condition that
he should not be allowed to continue"

Big Ten coaches of football appear
to have thought the East highly ex-
cited over the shift plays of attack.
The Middle West apparently has dis

Stagg. illinois and Minnesota have

we have not used 1t for many seasons.
As far back as 1894 l drew the two
tackles back and sent them ahead of
Henry Gale. When l say the Big Ten
has practically abandoned the shift
mean the other teams have found de-
tense for it. 1t can be stopped and
stopped to such an extent the time
used to coach the play can be used far
more advantageously In developing
some other attack. Williams at Min

and we started using 1t out here be-
fore he did.
Rule Is Explicit.
''The rule is explicit that both feet
of a player must be on the ground at
the snap of the ball. If there Is an
evasion Of the rule then the play
should be stopped by the officials. If
they are trying to beat the rule that is
another thing. There are many ways
of getting around the rule, and these
are often legislated against"

Seattle Commercial In- terests at Back of

 The "usa of the request would be 6. board" presumably selected by these interests and appointed by the Presi- dent. This board would displace the Federal Government. and all bureaus, d departments and officials of the Federal Gov ernment in the disposition of all the resources of Alaska embraced in it's forests. fisheries, public lands, birds, game. furs and water powers. Only the coal. oil and minerals are modestly omitted.
 The board would assume in full the functions and responsibilities of the Departments of Agriculture, Interior and Commerce, the Federal Water Power Commission. the General Land Office and the departments which en- force the migratory bird treaty act.
 The board woald be located in the Department of Interior, but would be
