Three Games on City Cage League
 Schedule at ""

The City Basketball league will again tonight. and though the going is not expected to be as rough as 1t was last Wednesday night, the games tonight are expected to be fast ones. week was one of the best that the city league has ever had, but that of tonight should at least be good enough to keep the fans interested. The first game will be between the Y. M. c. A. and the Howard Reserves, and it should be quite little skirm- ish before it Is over, as both teams have been going good and are anxious to keep on in that direction tonight. Hilburn and Ansley are the two boys upon whom Coach Abel will depend to do the most work against the Bull dogs. Both of these men are good players and they are expected to get a good game out of their systems against the Bulldogs. Ham Stevens is the mainstay of the Howardites and 1t Is only once in a while that player as good as Ham comes out for the Bulldog team. Stevens is good enough for the varsity, but at present he Is unable to devote much time to basketball as he is studying hard to pass off conditions So there can be no question as to his eligibility in baseball.
 The second game will be between Avondale Mills and Sloss5 Sheffield, and the Sloss team is not certain to win either, as the Millers have a good team and are liable to take the steel makers unawares and win. Regard less of who wins. the game is bound to be good with the two teams play ing.
 Birmingham Southern and Wood lawn will meet in the last game, which should be fast affair. Here's the remainder of the city league schedule. Clip 1t out and keep up with the league;

HniIex An oId-Timer

Farmer Bailey, who met Fink ley on a local mat last Monday night, wrestled in Birmingham when he was only a kid and much lighter and more greener than now. The Jasper fire de- partment wanted to raise funds and they persuaded me to book Bailey and a big Belgian boy by the name of Costello for bout In Jasper. I sent the men over as per instruction and they staged the affair in the school audi torium. It happened that Jani- tor help was scarce at that time, and Costello, lending a helping hand in tidying up the hall took a broom in hand and swept out Inc auditorium, with an efficien- cy that bespoke former expert ence in .tose lines.
 Bailey kldded his heftier op- ponent along as he raised dust clouds with the broom, and fin ally having finished his task the Belgian was notified that piano was in the way on the stage where the mat was to be placed. me SidHt hohcndldHtiy steppeu backward and pushed the piano to the edge of the stage. He then got on the floor, tilted the in strument slightly, and lifted it bodily to a resting place on the floor. Bailey's eyes got as big as cake plates over this strong man performance. and the wit messing of such feat unnerved him so that he proved no match for his bulkier foe.

ThompkIns Springs One
 Tommy Thompkins. whose main forte Is boxing, but who has be- come a wrestling convert to certain extent, tells funny one on Ed Lewis that happened out in California. Tommy says Billy Sandow, manager of Lewis, told him the yarn and swore at the time that ne was ready to fur nish affidavits as to it's authen- ticity. Let Tommy tell 1t:
 Billy Sandow told me that big carnival company touring the west docked at San Diego, Cal, and advertised that 1t had Ed Strangler Lewis as an attraction. Now, Eds home town Is Los An geles, and some friends of his put him wise to the impersona- ton going on over in San Diego-~ They persuaded Ed to hop in the car and go over for a lark.
 They arrived at the scene of the carnival. and made their way to the athletic show. Ed, sitting in the audience, saw and heard big ponderous ipdividual intro duced as Ed .Strlangler Lewis, the head-loek king, ready to meet any and all comers' Lewis, see ing the humorous side of the thing, immediately accepted the challenge and stepped upon the stage to meet the impostor.
 The referee called the men into action and Lewis stepped forward and lifted his 225-pound opponent up in his arms as he would a baby. What hold you wantT shouted Ed to the crowd, and one of hls friends yelled: Head -locki Whereupon, Lew-s slammed his astonished opponent to the floor, secured his famous head-lock and tortured him Into submission in only one minute and 42 seconds. Sandow told me it was fully 30 minutes before the imposter was revived sufficiently to even sit ur," concluded Tom my.

THERE ARE A GOOD MANY
THINGS TO BE GLAD ABOUT

The best way to discover these
things, however, is 10 take an IN
ventory Of our advantages and see
If we are getting anywhere with
what we are about, and the first
thing of course, is TO see IL our sur
roundings are in line with what we
call good place in which to live.
Anyone who is acquainted with
Lubbock and knows how to enjoy
life on the Plains certainly knows
that here there are many things to
be glad about, first Of which is TO
be glad that the Almighty first
created his human creatures with
an appreciation of advantages and a
keen realization Of what constitutes
a home. A home is no better than
the place you try TO make II, and
you cannot make anything much
better than the environments IN
which il is placed, so right at the
beginning Of this situation we are
going to say we are glad our home
IS in Lubbock, next we are glad
Lubbock is on the Plains. next we
are glad that the Plains are located
in West Texas. next we are glad
West Texas is West Texas and not
somewhere else, next we are glad
West Texas is inhabited by West
Texas folks, next we are glad West
Texas folks are different to anyone
else we have ever known, next we
are glad West Texas folks are more
friendly and more congenial than
anyone else, next we are glad there
Is no dividing point between a West
Texan and a West Texas town, one
is made by the other, and both are
essential to the prosperity, general
welfare and existence OK the other,
and since a man is walking crea-
ture with abilities TO think, build
and live, we are Of the opinion that
he is the biggest element Of these
two great factors, and now that
Lubbock is about the biggest and
best town on the Plains. as far as
individuality is concerned, we are
glad to attribute the bigness of this

larly on the raw materials raised on
farm and ranch. Just how strongly
the bankers have lined up behind the
program OF the Southern Tariff as
ISOLATION Is demonstrated by the sig
natures 20 the resolutions outlining
the policy of that organization. Near
" two-thirds, well over 1000, OF The
bankers in the state Of Texas have
signed these resolutions, placing
themselves squarely behind the
movement for protection OF southern
products.
Lest there should be any charge
that the big banks are influenced by
eastern financial interests allied with
industrial concerns II should be noted
that the signatures Of banks and
bankers affixed TO the Southern Tar
in association resolutions are over
whelmingly those OF the country
banks, which are close TO the pro-
Queer, the farmer and stockman,
and which have plenty OF cause TO
know and understand his needs. The
large banks are also signers, so that
banking sentiment seems TO be
strongly defined as in favor OF pro-
lection along the lines advocated by
Hon. John II. Kirby and his associa-
ties in the tariff movement in the
South.
Ed Woodall Of Hllsboro, one OF
the active tariff advocates Of this
section Of the country, addressed the
Texas Bankers Association Friday
on the subject Of protection. and his
words reached many responsive ears.
Fort Worth has already proven fer

East for years, and it is time that the
people Of the South and West assert
