O.C.H.SJEAM IS CRIPPLED Wemhoff Twists Ankle In Practice; Laurent Is Elected Captain The Catholic high school football squad suffered a hard blow on the eve of the battle with (’. C. H. S. of Fort Wayne here Friday, when Arthur Wemhoff, right end, suffered a badly sprained ankle in scrimmage yesterday evening. The injury, no doubt will keep WemhfT out of Friday's game and possibly later contests.. His left ankle was twisted when he was tackled in practice. Outside of the injury to Wemhoff and Schulte’s lame ankle, the squad is in good condition for the game. Schulte may get into the game at fullback. The squad elected George . Laurent, ouarterback, captain of the team yesterday evening. The game will be played on Ahr’s Field Friday, starting at 3 o’clock.

SOCIETY’ Birthday Anniversary I (Contributed) I Everybody is looking for happiness. ! Poets give us the impression that 1 happiness, can be found no where, I except In idolized secluded places, and that people must, rush to these spots to catch its over flow. The relatives, friends and neighbors, who 1 met at the home of Mr. ami Mrs. H. ' S. Chase. Sunday, September 21. > 1924. All join with one accord, that ■ happines is not local, but is every - where, to possess it depends upon • each of us individually. Beauty, t simplicity, and peace, are the cheapi est and most essential things one s may possess in this world, to being j true happiness. Relatives, neighbors and friends came into the Chase : home, for the purpose of reminding I Mr. cha to that one more year of time for him has past, and with his relatives, and friends, he is three- hun- ■ dred and sixty-five days nearer the ■ realm of enternal happiness, at (the ■ end of time, found reigning supreme , in this home was this great wealth of beauty, simplicity and peace, and each guest coming into the home . seemed to catch the overflow. Out- : of-town guests consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Aur(her Chase, of South Bend. Ind..; Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Kittle, and daughter. Pauline, of Montezuma, O.; , Mr. and Mrs. Sam Kittle, and son. Eugene, of Coldwater. O.; Mr. and Mrs. Lewis and son, Bobbie of Monttezuma, O.; Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Straley and three sons, Stanley. Gorden and Jimmie, and daughter, Mary Ida. of Fort Wayne, Ind. Other guests consisted of heme town relatives, neighbors and friends. At the noon hour plates were laid for a total ,of fifty guests. Music and songs I were an enjoyable feature of the after noon, talking over happy events of the past and discussing some of the possibilities of tile great future, that looms before us. May each suceeding year bring greater happiness for each greater happiness for each member of the Chase home, is the sincere wish of'each guest who enjoyed the happy privilege of helping to commemorate the fifty-sixth birthifay of Ms. H. S. Chase. o Overcrowded China If the population of the United States and 40.00f1.0tX) more were crowded into the state of Texas, the ; density of the population would be I about the same as that of China in I the valleys of the Yang-tee Kiang and the plains between the Yangtze Klang and the Honngho. This means an average of 520 persons to the square mile. o Genius and Dullness Men of genius are often dull and j inert in society, as the blazing meteor when it descends to the earth is only a stone.—Longfellow. RHEUMATISM Leaves You Forever jSo Says James H. Allen. Who Drove Out Rheumatic Poisons After Being Crippled for Years. * J * 99 Mr S'*- ' ■si | Mr. James H. Allen, of 26 Forbes St, Rochester, N. Y.. suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times I this terrible disease left him helpless 1 and unable to work. | Ho finally decided, after vears of ceaseless study, that no one can be free from rheumatism until the accumulated impurities, commonly call- 1 cd uric acid deposits, were dissolved - in the joints and muscles and expell ] oil from the body. With th s idea in mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and finally compounded a prescription that quickly and banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. He freely gave his discovery. . jvhieh he called Allenrhu, to others ‘ who took it. with what might be call 1 ed marvelous success. After years < of urging he decided to let sufferers ; everywhere know about his discovery through the newspapers. “The blessed relief this marvelous 1 prescription quickly gives has made for it thousands of friends,” says ) The Holthouse Drug Co., who has been appointed agent in your city. It Is Mr, Allen’s own discovery. I
