PRESCOTT WINS
 ANOTHER GAME
Local Team Wins From Nash. vile Eleven Last Friday
 Score 20.13.

Last Friday Coach McGill and his Curly Wolves, accompanied by crowd of rooters journeyed to Nashville to play the Nashville high school football boys. The final score stood 2s to 13, with Prescott on the heavy end.
 Prescott's fans and supporters claim to have never seen such poor show ing of craftsmanship as was put up by the Nashville men. They did all in their power to discredit the local boys, fla ling miserably, and Succeeded in showing only their lack of real foot ball spirit
 Graham, Griffith, Jones and Sage played remarkable games. Graham's line plunges showing more pep than usual, even for the hard playing cap- tain.
 Griffith played a stellar game as tackle, pounding the Nashville line time and aga n.
 Jones made some remarkamble gains around the ends. Jones is a good man to have in the backtield, steady, reliable and sure gainer.
 Sage played hard, as usual. He made long gains almost every try. Sage made the last touchdown of the game, when, with minute to play, he inter- cepted forward pass one yard behind his goal line and raced the full length of the field for a touchdown, lodging every man on the Nashville team.
 The boys go to Pine Bluff Saturday, for one of the hardest games of the season. They need, and deserve the support of everyone in Prescott.

Roebuck, who has been doing all the preaching for the meeting has made a very fine impression both as a man and minister He came to Prescott an entire stranger to nearly all of our people, but he will go away leaving a host of friends among those who have been strengthened and enr' 'ched by his ministry. Several members have been received into the church by letter and others are expected to join the church before the meeting closes

REVIVED INTEREST IN
 SCHOOLS FOR ADULTS

That there is d revival of interest i'll schools for adults is evidenced by the fact there have been above 5000 enroll n6 in such schools in the State with the past eight months.

 n the form of Opportunity Schools for adults An Opportunity School is school taught by the teacher of the day school or some other qualified per son. and has as it's pupils the adults of the district who wish to learn to read and write or who wish to take review in the subjects in which they feel a deficiency The schools are usually held two nights out Of each week for per cd of six weeks or more. Literature and lesson plans for the work are furnished free by the Arkansas Educational Association and can he secured from County Superin- tendent l. W. Teeter. Teachers and directors are urged to cooperate in organizing these schools and to make one of their main objects the teaching of the twelve hundred people in Nevada County to read and write.
