After Dinner Tricks

Set hat upon q tumbler, and a coin
upon the hat, as shown in the above
diagram. The trick is to knock the hat
from the tumbler, and have the coin
fall into the glass. This the performer
does successfully, but no one else can
duplicate the feat.
To do the trick, pretend that you are
going to hit the hat on the outside, but
when you do strike it, hit inside the
brim. The eye cannot follow the swift
movement, and the spectators will
therefore fail when they try the trick.
IS they will hit the hat from the out
hide.

The people of Tensas parish should
not forget the Tr-Parish Fair to be
held at Tallulah in October. BY Tri-
Parish is meant Three-Parish Fair,
and these three parishes are East
Carroll, Madison and Tensas, and
though we are mentioned last be-
cause of geographical location, we
wish it known that we are not least
by any means. And we wish to re-
mind the people of Tensas that this
is our fair as well as it 10 the other
parishes fair, that we are or should
be just as much interested in its
success as the other parishes are,
and that we should make up our
minds right now not to let the other
parishes "cop" all the prizes. Tsnsas
has won a number of prizes at this
fair in past days and we can do it
again. So let our people begin right
now to prepare for the occasion and
let each good housewife of Tensas
show what kind Of preserves and jel-
lies and pickles and other good
things to eat she can make, and let
the farmers and stock-raisers put
their best foot forward and show the
world at this fair what Tensas has.
We are pleased to announce that
the School Board Of Tensas parish,
at its last meeting, appropriated
one hundred dollars, to be used by
the schools of the parish in putting
school>~ on exhibition. Our school
work won prizes several years ago
and is going to do IL again.
It is to be hoped that our people,
individually and collectively, will
take interest in the Tri-Parish Fair
and each do his or her best to boost
it and encourage all Of our people
to enter exhibits, We have the pro-
duce if we will only show it.

Henryetta Soccer
Club Gets Sweet
Revenge on Tulsa

Honryetta's soccer team got re-
venge on the Tulsa soccerltes Sum
day in n game at Henryetta, win
ming goals to o. This outcome
was quite a surprise to say the
least as Tulsa n week previous had
defeated Henryetta here, 2 to !.
Manager Joe Walsh OF the Tulsa
team said one reason for the defeat
was that his men had worked too
hard in practice. They spent two
hours and half Saturday afternoon
on the field at Lee Stadium and
Sunday morning when they caught
a train for Henryetta all were COM
planning of stiffness and soreness.
However, even had the local outfit
been in top form they probably
would have had all they could
handle, according to the reports
they brought back. for the Henry
eta outfit was going great. Tommy
Parkins of Henryetta had an un-
usually good day. He made all the
Henryetta scores, rnree with his
head and one with boot. Manager
Walsh did the best work for Tulsa,
getting into every play.
A good crowd turned out for the
game and the weather was ideal. A
return game will be arranged, the
winner to be declared the state
champions.
