Editor. The Manning Times.

Editor The Manning Times:
re" people in Manning realize the
amount of work that Mr.. Richards
mas done in developing our first High
School foot Ball Team, and how the
boys have responded to his intelligent
and systematic coaching. There is
no cleaner or manlier sport than foot
ball. 1t calls for quick thinking, quick
acting, plenty of grit, perseverance,
and physical endurance. The foot
ball stars both in high schools and COL
Ilegees deserve all the praise that is
bestowed on thcm.\
/ didn't start out to write disser-
tation on foot ball, however, but to call
attention to the foot that our bows
are going to play the Conway High
School team here next Friday after
noon, November 18th. This is a holi-
day and we should all turn out and
give the boys boost. 1t costs
money to bring the Conway team here
ana l imagine the treasury of the
local team needs replenishing. Our
boys have won exactly half the games
they have played this season, which
is fine record for first year team.
They are determined to add another
game to their string of victories Fri
day afternoon. Let's all turn out help
them win. If you don't understand
Che game, come anyway. You can
md some one to explain the main
points, and you will never learn the
game except by seeing it played.
Let me add that am not connected
with the school or the foot ball team
and this is written without the know
ledge of the coach or any member of
the team. I have admired the earnest
and enthusiastic work of Coach Rich
ards and the boys and 1 am anxious
that we should give them the
encouragement and support they de-
serve.

THE STORY OF THE DOLLAR

A dollar rolled into my Office the
other day, sat down on the edge of
the desk and dubbed his silver face.
'Well," he said wearily, "I've had
busy year. Gosh, but Pm glad you
didn't put me in the bank or pay me
cut on your car"
"You'd better be glad you didn't go
to pay the income tax" | responded
coldly, "Where have you been all this
time? Sit down and give an account
of yourself"
"I've been spending most of my
time among the ex-servicc men," he
admitted, "Do you know that in this
country there are at present 10000
eX-service men in hospitals served by
the Red Cross? l have been visiting
Often where there are 100 men SUI,
fering and dying Of tuberculosis con-
tracted through the war, and Kcnil-
worth where men lie year after year
in plaster casts because of bit Of
shrapnel in their spines and the Psy-
chiatric hospitals where the boys we
sent away in 1917 scream and rave
and have to be behind bars till they
die. Ten million of my dollar friends
went to. help the ex-service man last
year and through the Federal Board
of Vocational Training we have help
ed 10000 eX-soldiers thrown out of
work because of disability back into
normal life. And $4,000 men repre-
sent at least 100000 women and child
rem dependent on them. All, no, the
war isn't over by any means. In the
hospitals and sanitariums it is still
being fought"
He paused a moment and strol,cd
the Pluribus Unum on his brow.
then continued pensively, "Ah, YES,
I've seen some strange things since
you sent me away last year. I've
