An incidental advantage claimed for the new Soyer System of Cooking in Paper Bags is that it saves time and anxiety—the' housewife doesn’t have to keep looking at the food from time to time as it is cooking to see if everything is all right, but, instead, she puts the food in the oven, shuts the door and leaves it there until it is time to remove it, and there are definite rufas for the length of time each kind of dish should remain in the

WON FROM SHERIDAN IN FIELD OF MUD AND WATER.

Last Year State Champions Easy For Rensselaer and Were Defeated by 9 to 0 Score. ? : * '' " .- A A fair sized crowd braved the raging elements, shivered on the sidelines, and Sheridan go down to defeat, Saturday, 9 to 0. A freezing wind blew from the west, the grounds were frozen mud, while pools of wate 1 * dotted the gridiron. When the players splashed into the ooze and water, everybody sfcivered all the more. The teams were about evenly matched as to weight, but the Sheridan aggregation were much slower, and played old style football almost exclusively The ball was in Rensselaer’s possession the greater part of the entire 'game, and the game was, for the most part, played in Sheridan's territory There were many thrilling plays, and several forward passes were successful. The intense cold caused several misplays and fumbles, but taken altogether, Rensselaer put up a good game and showed marked improvement over the two previous ones. Price distinguished himself by recovering three fumbles. Parks made long gains around end. The line held like a stone wall and Captain Hemphill pulled off a seventy yard punt—with the aid of the wind. The tackling was surer and better, and the entire team marked improvement. Robinson was out at end, Thompson taking the wing. The first quarter ended with neither side scoring, the ball being on Sheridan’s twenty yard line. On the first play in the second quarter, Parks skirted left end and planted the ball squarely between the goal post. He kicked goal. In the last three minutes of play Rensselaer pushed over for a touchdown and the runner yelled down an.’ then wjas pushed back. The referee could not see it that i way and Sheridan then lost the ball on downs. Parks dropped a perfect field goal and so the score was 9 instead of 12. The game was very clean throughout and penalties were few, both sides faring alike, The Sheridan . team were th * most gentlemanly-set of boys seen on the field this year.
