FLAPPERISM
WILL NOT SPOIL
YOUTH OF Land
Sunday School Convention Speaker
Defends Youth Of To-day
Pleads for Intensive
Training.

Winchester, KY, Oct. 6.-Dr. Frank
McGibben, superintendent of religious
education at South Bend, Ind, spoke
at the afternoon session OF the Ken
lucky Sunday school convention
Thursday on "The Promise Of Youth
and the Duty of Adults to Boys and
Girls" He said in part:
Despite their peculiar speech, dress
and action, l believe in the young peo-
pie OF America today. In spite OF their
exaggerated flapperism, believe that
they will respond to the highest and
best appeals as readily and fully as the
youth OF any country and any age. II
the church OF Christ wishes to build
for the future and conserve It's great
est resources, II must appeal to its
youth and keep the four out Of five
boys and girls who now drop out OF
the Sunday schools.
I'VE need to turn back the pages OF
our lives and discover ourselves In the
boys and girls today. We must do away
with the attitude OF complaint and
doubt and believe in their ideals and
responses.
II find young people OF high school
age trained In history, mathematics
and science but grossly ignorant OF
the fundamentals of religion. We
blame the colleges and universities for
undermining the faith OF our young
people, when the fault is not In these
Institutions but In the home and home
church. which allow boys and girls to
go out without sufficient religious In
structions and with no reason for the
faith which they thing is in them.
The church has great undevel-
oped resource in the use OF leisure
time OF It's young people for instruc-
ton, character building and the king
dom OF God. We must present to them
definition OF religion not as a creed
but as an experience, not prepara-
tion for the next world. but service In
this"

When little Maysville stacked up
against big Flemingsburg at the For
est avenue ball field Friday in the
first football contest of the season it
was a case of David and Goliath, with
the visitors an advantage of a fifteen
pound average per man while the
locals advantage was | ntheir game
ness and Frissell their captain.
The Maysville gridders STAYED off
defeat in the two first quarters by
checking their opponents twice after
they had marched nearly three-quar-
ters the length of the field and the
whistle at the half saved them Just in
time for beef was at last wearing out
pluck.
In the third quarter after Flemings-
burg had kicked off to Maysville the
ball was taken over on blocked punt
near mid-field and a series Of end runs
with an occasional short pass and
plunge soon placed it behind the goal
line. The ball was put in scrimmag &c
near the foul line and forward pass
failed to net the necessary five yards
and point after touchdown.
The prettiest piece of football in the
entire game was forty yard broken
field run in the last part of the third
when Frissell who by the way eycelJs
in all departments, accepted lateral
pass on Flemingsburgs 80 yard and
zig-zagged acfoss the field to his own
thirty yard line. Through sheer ex-
haustion Maysville was unable to fol-
low up this opportunity and soon
Flemingsburg had the ball again in
the final session when the whistle
stopped their onrush ten yards from q

DEMOCRATIC
 VICTORIES
New York Goes Democratic by Big Majority. Democrats Make Amszing Gains
 in the House.

Boston. No. With returns from 175 towns and cities throughout the state and nearly complete returns from Boston. Col William A Gaston. Dem ocrat. was leading the veteran Senator Henry Cabot Lodge. Republican The returns from none of the larger cities is complete.
 Republicans claim the country vote will elect Lodge. but admit close race.
 New York. Nov. 7.-The rebuke to the Harding administration conveyed l by the election seems to be even more stinging than the Democrats antici- pated.
 Not only have the Democratic gains in the House been so great as to make it practically certain that no measure of merely Republican programme can be forced through the next Congress. but every policy dear to the admins tra tion's heart seems to have gone by the board The east has repudiated the tariff.
 The landslide for which the Demo crats were waiting came along quite according to schedule.
 They have apparently done every thing they counted on doing ill the Senate. and the vast Republican ma iority of the Sixty seventh Congress has vanished, leaving enough Demo crats and insurgent Republicans who will vote with them on all but strict party measures-and this does not necessarily mean the measures the administration would class in that category-to guide legislation in the House
 Al Smiths overwhelming vistory over Gov. Miller, Republican, in the New York gubernators struggle com passed the defeat of Senator Calder, Republican. by Royal & Copeland the Democratic nominee, according to the returns far from complete. With the enormous vote he won in New York City however, Copeland had a lead which it appeared impossible for Calder to have overcome upstate. al though the senator ran ahead of Miller and Copeland ran behind Smith.
 The one source of anxiety for the Democrats was Nebraska. IL was rec osn zed that Hitchcock. the incumbent senator, had harder fight than any Democratic candidate for reelection.
 Senator Pomerene. Democrat, was leading in Ohoio on early returns. Sen ator Freinghuysen. Republican. was running behind Gov. Edwards for the T.. <. Senatorial seat from New Jersey. Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts. was given the race of his life ny his Demo cratic opponent Gaston. but apparent ly was reelected.

OIL PROSPECTS
 ARE FOUND IN
 K0YUK REGION

That the region along the eastern
 coast adjacent to the mouth of the
 Koyukuk River presents bright possi-
 bilities for future oil development,
 is the declaration of w. E. Cramer,
 widely known prospector and min-
 CT, who returned to Nome recently, after an extensive survey of that
 locality during the late fall.
 According to MT. Cramer, the dis trict abounds in oil indications. Un- unstable evidences of the presence of mineral oil are to be found on the surface of lakes between the Koyuk and the Ungalik river, about 35 miles to the eastward of the former stream. Some of the lakes were found coV- cred with oil bubbles which are ap- parently filled with gas, as he was told by natives that they frequently amused themselves by touching matches to them "to see them burn, after the lakes had frozen over. Theso indications, combined with the fact that the formation is sandstone and shale and also that the region contains numerous coal veins, is, he says convincing evidence that the district is a most promising one for the oil prospector. As the freezeup was on, Cramer was unable to se- cure samples ofthe oil found on the ! lakes but the evidences of it's pres ence were unmistabable. he says In detailing the results of his in vestigations to the Nome Nugget, MT. Cramer said:
 "I have heard for some time per sistent rumors of oil seepages on
 Norton Bay. Knowing that there was coal both at the mouth of the l Koyull and at Unalakleet, l decided to investigate. John Hoem and my self left Nome October 5, on the schooner Nokatak for the mouth of the koyuk which flows into the head of Norton bay. Ice conditions were so bad that Captain Swanson de- cded to lay his schooner up for the winter The vessel was hauled
 up and placed in winter quarters on October g. As there was not much
 snow on the ground at this time, we decided to investigate the coal de-
