SEE THE DOGS AT i THE HARVEST SHOW One of the entertaining features of the Harves.t Show, at least to dog- lovers, will be the dog show.

SOUTH SIDE WINS In a hard fought game at Clark Field, yesterday afternoon, the South Side team of Coach Morison's Wildcat squad defeated the North Side team, 6 to 2. The Northeners scored their two points in the first quarter, when Osbourn fumbled while attempting to punt and was thrown behind the goal line for a safety. In the second quarter, McNabb playing half back. for the South side, got loose and went forty yards for a touchdown, but failed on the try for point.

That ended the scoring and both teams battled back and forth in the center of the field for the balance of the game. Despite the drizzling rain, quite a few fans were out and saw a good game. On next Friday afternoon, Captain Leonard Fain will lead his Wildcats against the Cassville High team at Clark Field. The visitors have a good team and are making a bid for the Class championship this year. Society magnificent chaises and horse race in one wonderful picture.

27. Empire Dist. Elec. Co. Prominence of Harvest Show.

At times those who have labored so earnestly for the success of the Harvest Show have felt that the most strenuous efforts were of i-ather small avail, and that all of the boosting and advertising fell in a small area. However, the Secretary of the Harvest Show committee, has for some time been receiving inquiries from all parts of Missouri, and from Oklahoma, Kanssa, Nebraska and Iowa, asking for literature telling of the institution, and from ladies who have articles which they are anxious to place on display here. A letter came yesterday from Ohio, asking that the writer be permitted to exhibit articles in the Home Economics display. So, after all, the work and the advertising has spread to a larger area than many have thought possible, and it all helps to make the annual celebration of the two counties more successful. HOME MAKER CLUBS INTERESTED IN HARVEST SHOW Typical of the interest felt by the two counties of the Harvest Show district, was the decision made by the Loyal Home Makers Club, at a meeting held on Sept.

17, when they voted to take ten cents per member out of the club treasury, to give to the Harvest Show committee to apply on premiums, other country clubs planning to do the same. Attractive exhibits will be entered I by the various clubs, these having already been planned.

It is a satisfaction to our people to note the spirit in which the contribution'is made in each instance. We doubt if our own citizens fully realize the importance and actual value to our community, of our annual fair. Jewell Mayes, secretary of- the State Board of Agriculture says in a recent letter: "I consider your Harvest Show one of the most important and most useful county fairs in our state; we refer to as any community would be well to follow."

Ayers Studio City Phon. 197 Golf Talk The weather has set a lot of fellows behind with their golf. We heard one- lady say this week that her husband complained continually because he was losing so much time; hadn't even had a chance to qualify for the coming tournament. Is absentmindedness a direct result of interest in golf? The following story connected with one of the lady members of our club might lead one to think it was. As the story was told to us this lady invited her Sunday School class to spend the afternoon with her the following Saturday.

That Saturday morning lady had an invitation to play golf in the afternoon which she readily acce-pted. During the afternoon her sister received a phone call; the person at the other end of the tyne was a child inquiring it" she knew where Mrs was, adding that she had invited her Sunday School class to the afternoon with her and that the class was there but was not at home A.good many men are beginning to inquire ''when do we Charlie Haas and Glenn Wolfenden. captains of the two teams in the last tournament, agreed that th.e money should be paid by the losers to John Robison, a member of the tournament committee, and the tournament committee should handle the affair. Some have already paid their $2.00, and soon as the others have turned in their money the committee will report upon the t'ccil. A suitable bond is being arranged by Mr.

Robison to insure safety of the funds. Shorty Getz has a lot of nerve. Picking a week like (his to in- viU 1 guests to play golf. The gentlemen were from Springfield and we have not heard whether they had an opportunity to play or not. We art; sure that, Shorty being of a hospitable nature, au invitation to return was extended them.

By the way, do you know what Shorty calls mashie? He says it's a Have you used a K-D Tee Mold? We haven't either: have just received some this morning and you can have more fun than a little playing with them and they make the keenest sand tees you ever saw, every one just alike. Charlie Davis has haunted us for weeks about them, now that he has out for some wonderful tee drives. Mrs. Walter Fausett is the latest addition to the lady players. As yet there is nothing to report.
