SORE FEET
To His Soldiers Napoleon
Said, "OIL YOUR FEET"

Sore, aching, burning feet prob
ably cause more misery-more
distress-more bad temper and
cursing than most other human
ailments.
"oI your feet" ordered Napoleon to
his soldiers before a battle or a long
march--he was a clever man.
Many q time-Overnight-yOu can take
out the sting-the soreness-the burning
and aching from your poor distressed feet
by giving them a good rubbing with pene-
trating medicated OMEGA OIL.
So don't worry-"Oil your feet" with
Omega Oil tonight, walk more briskly
and joyfully to work tomorrow-35c at
your druggist.

Dear mother. you are not forgotten.
Though on earth you are no more.
Still in memory you are with US,
As you always were before.
The world may change from year to year,
And friends from day to day;
But never will the one we loved
From memory pass away,
Our lips cannot tell how we miss her.
Our hearts cannot tell what to say;
God alone knows how we miss her
In home that is lonesome today.
The depths Of sorrow We cannot tell
OF the loss of one we loved so we'll;
And, while she sleeps a peaceful sleep,
Her memory we shall always keep.
Deep in the heart lies a picture
OF loved one laid to rest.
In memorys frame we shall keep 1t,
Because she was one of the best.
In our home she is fondly remembered
Sweet memories cling to her name;
Those who loved her in life sincerely
Still love her in death just the same.

The invaders clinched the affair
in the fifth by recording four tallies.
Singles by Worthie. Austin n Hud-
dleston, C. Smiths second round trip
per and errors by Dicken and Mont
gomery paved the way for the uns
The locals closed the gap somewhat
by scoring a pair in the fifth on sin
giles by Hudson, Drane and Herrin
and an error by T. Smith, and anoth-
err in the sixth when they might have
tied the score but for bad judgment
in running the bases. O'Cain led off
with a single. After Dicken flew
to center, Stoddard, substituting for
M. HUMPHREYS. doubled to advance
o'Cain to third. Carroll. pitching IN
the place of Counts, who started,
beat out an infield tap to bring
| O'Cain home. Drane popped to first
and Herrin ran out of the first base
line to retire the side.
The second setto was a different
matter as Durant started off with a
bang in the opening stanza by regis
tering five times on three hits, -four
bases on balls and a pair of errors
by Landrum in left, Tchula produced
a brace of counters in their half on
singles by Austin and Worthie, a base
on balls and a fielder's choice.
The homelings sent another run
home in the second on w HUMPHREYS
single and an error by L. Smith.
Bases on balls to Hasson and Floyd
and T. Smiths triple in the second
brought the score up to 6 to 4 in
favor of Durant. In the fourth
chapter the winners engineered an
other wild scoring spree to annex
five more markers to lead IL to 4
and then added one in each the fifth
and six frames to make a total OF
Is.
The Tchula lads brought their to-
tai of runs up to six by virtue OF
one tally in the fifth and seventh
periods.
In the first encounter the visitors
outhit the home forces Is to IL. but
in the second engagement Durant
had the upper hand. prevailing in
blows, IA to 8 and committing only
one error.
The stick work Of Austin, who
harvested a bountiful crop of Z hits
in eight trips to the plate in the duo
of tits, was a feature for the visi.
tors, while Drane, who garnered siz
wallops in seven tries, was the most
consistent performer for the Du-
rant outfit. Clements was the mos
dependable fielding during the after
moons clashes, having eleven chances
with only one error.

TchuIu Divides Double
Bill With Durunt
BY william Cathey

The booming bats Of Austin and G.
Smith exploded loudly and often here
last Thursday afternoon to give the
Tchula softballers a close 10 to =
decision over the Durant team In
the first game of a d~oubleheader,
but the locals numbered their hitting
artillery in the second clash to regis
ter a 10 to 6 victory.
Austin and Smith staged a two-man
show in the opening encounter ana
single-handedly paced the visitors to
their victory. The former drove out
a pair of singles, a double n a home
run, while the latter blasted two
long home runs, both prodigious
clouts. and a single. Between them
they accounted for a total of nine
runs.
Inability to hit with men on bases
cost the home forces the decision in
the initial contest, and six errors did
not help matters in the least, with
three of the enemy's tallies result
from miscues.
Durant twice overcame the invad-
ers' lead in the opening tilt to take
the advantage, being ahead at one
time 4 to 8. and another 6 to 3, but
Tchula's big bats always came thru
to overcome the margin.
After the visitors assumed a 3 to
command in the first chapter as the
