DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11,1923.

The Fourth Down By Willie Punt Huntington found out that they I weren't playing the teain that C. C. H. S. beat 58-0. No doubt, they wish, ed they were. In Captain Wickenfeld and Frisinger, the Yellow Jackets have two ends that are hard to heat. They j are right there on offensive and deI Tensive alike. When a si<k man enters a game | and tights like Jack Teeple did in the second half yesterday, he's not out there just for a good time. Jack was fighting for D. 11. S. to win. — The work of the Yellow Jackets' backfield in gaining ground, was I gratifying yesterday, but they must I learn not to fumble the ball. Had it not been for fumbles, Huntington would not have had one of their scores and Decatur would have had probably three more touchdowns. When a line permits only one first down in two games, you can't say that the linemen are novices at the game, can you. That's what the YellowJacket line has done against Anderson and Huntington. And the line is light, too. Bud White played the entire game at fullback yesterday with a badly bruised hip. And we mean “played", too. Huntington had a negro in the lineup. too. Gaskin, colored, left tackle, is rated as one of their best players, but the Yellow Jackets stopped him. Roe. sub on the Yellow Jacket team last year, got into the game at half-1 back for Huntington during the last few minutes of play. r Coach Howard has drilled a lot of football into the Yellow Jackets during the last few weeks. He's a real general. o TOMATO CROP SHORT Excessive Rains At planting Time And Maturing Time Is Caus e d I Pierceton, Oct. 11.—The tomatoe crop in northern Indiana this year is far short of that of last season because of excessive rains at plant-1 ing time as well as at maturing time. 1 During the last two weeks tomatoes | not yet ripened have been falling from the vines. Although the increase in acre'age this year was one-third greater than | that of last year one of the largest packers in the state with a plant here say s that the deliveries to the plant this year will not exceed onethird of that of 1922. Thought for the Day. There are people who feel under no oliligations to help in any worthy eause unless they are solicited.

B. & C. right of ways. Williamson took with him to Chicago a plat of this ground and told Mr. Johnson that he had instructions from the Bluffton business men to offer a building that would cost not to 1 exceed SIO,OOO. Mr. Johnson has the plans and will make out a list of the needs of his proposed new factory building and estimate the cost.

A house Is u matter of furnishings, | One stool —or, an over-stuffed set; A home is a place where thotfulness, | Courtesy and kindness are met. It takes only money to build a house. Be it hovel or gilded dome; But true father, true mother, a babe | and one other. And love, to make a real home. . — —a Ralston Sowers, of Portland, visited friends here last evening. o ■ < O <> GET YOl R MILK BOTTLE CAPS —at — BAUGHMAN’S 50c per 1,000 J DRUGS EXCITE THE KIDNEYS, DRINK WATER Take Salts at First Sign of Bladder Irritation or Backache The American men and women must guard constantly against kidney 1 trouble because we often eat too much rich food.

Out of r every dollar received 4.38 cents was I paid * n while only 4.34 cent! was paid in dividends. In the year 1913 the total dividends paid to railroad stockholders were S about two and a half timee the total railroad taxes. In the year 1922 the taxes paid were 11 per cent greater |J than the aggregate dividends. The cash dividends paid in 1913 totaled $322,300,406 and the taxes $127,725,809. Dividends in 1922 i totaled $271,576,000 and taxes h $301,003,227. In the ten-yesr .£ period, 1913 to 1922, therefore, taxes increased about 135 per cent while \ dividends decreased about 16 per The increaee in taxes is due in part J to an increase of approximately five billion dollars in the property in- s; vestment of the railroads between f 1913 and 1922. But, while the total investment and value of railroad property devoted to public service during this period has increased about 33 per cent, and taxes upon the property 135 per cent, the total | compensation to railway stockholders has decreased 16 per cent.
