COACH jSCHSEIDEU
MAKES PLEA FOK
SCHOOL SriRIT
Local High School Athletic Director
Addresses School Uody at Chapel
On More Interest In
School Games.
Coach George Schneider, of the
Maysville High School, made a strong
plea for more school spirit in an ad
dress to the entire school body at
Chapel Friday. Mr. Schneider said In
part:
The football season closed, for M. H,
S., last Saturday; basketball practice
for tho boys begins on Wednesday. In
thl3 lull, between the two seasons, I
want to review one and outline the
other.
, After an absence of 12 years football
made its reappearance "lis year and
about 20 ensnared tho first call for
practice. For various reasons, some of
the boys dropped by the wayside so
that we had about 16 in one squad.
These fellows practiced regularly and
faithfully- They received their knocks
and bumps and learned to com up
smilingly.
We played six games and lost six
against M. M. I., F. H. S. (2), C. C. H.
S., C. H. S., and Kenova. In each case
excepting against Flemlngsburg, we
played against experienced teams; in
every case were outweighed and It Is
the consensus of opinion in every
case out-played our opponents.
If my memory Is correct, we went
through the season without a penalty.
After each game, It was my privilege
to have the coach of the opposing team
and the officials come forward and
compliment the boys, through me, for
their sportsmanship and clean play
ing. It took about $200-00 to equip and
outfit the team. Mr. Noel borrowed
part of the money to pay for the uni
forms. Our first home game against
Flemingsburg thanks to the goodly
number that came with them, several
children from the grades and a few of
you girls, was a financial success. Our
second home game, vs. Winchester,
was a blot on the sportsmanship of
the city. If it had not been for six of
tho girls, four or five of the boys and
A the parents of the fellows who were
playing, the game would have been
played before the officials end the sub
stitutes. We should have won that
game and, I believe, would have tad
we had your moral support. After a
good deal of coaxing and pleading we
managed to get a crowd out for the
Carlisle game. We had a good crowd,
the boys played hard and according to
post mortem "dope," we won the
game. Those of us who have followed
each game saw ' what your presence
meant to the boys. For your informa
tion, though let me say that in spite of
the crowd, we did not make expenses,
The expenses do not worry us. As
the farmer said, "What do we care for
them when we have so many of them.
' ' What we want, what we have to have.
is your moral support Look back over
the season and answer these questions
Have I seen the M. H. 5. football team
in a game this year? Did I go to two
; of them? Did I support them in all
three of their home games? Some of
you have been most liberal in your
support. You have even gone to cheer
the team when they were playing on
foreign fields. Tjki have given of your
time and energy unstintingly. You
did any and everything that was asked
of you without hedging and asking,
"Can't you get so and bo to do it?"
In short, you "carrltd the message to
Garcia." Your school is proud of you,
the team appreciates what you have
done for them and I on my own and
their behalf, thank you.
But, there are some Qf you who have
not seen a single game and the only
excuse that" you could offer would be
"I haven't any school spirit" If that
were the only way in which you failed
to support the team perhaps it would
not be so bad, but you had to knock,
you made fun of the fellows, you de
rided their appearance, you discredit
ed their -efforts, you spoke diaparlngly
of them to outsiders, you laughed at
our efforts to turn out a team. Mr. Cap
scribes your type to a nicety,
sevrtbes your type to a nicety.
"When the Creator had made all the
good things, there was still aome dirty
work to do, ao He made the beasts and
reptiles and poisonous insects, and
when He had finished He bad some
craps that were too bad to put Into
the rattlesnake, the byenna and the
scorpion, so He put all these together,
covered It with suspicion, wrapped It
with Jealousy marked It with a yellow
streak, and called it a 'knocker.'
"This product was so fearful to eon
templaU that Ha had to make some
thing to counteract It, so He took a
sunbeam and put In It tba heart of a
child, lbs brain of a man, wrapped
these in civic pride, covered it wlih
brother!)- ov gave it a roiuk of velvet
and a sTssp of steel, and called It a
'Ijotr;' mad him a lover of fields

Jever to aquallly and turtle, and r
tuesa two r, muful man has

cortagioua. A few here have It,
pose yourself to it
While the majority of you bate Been
Indlfforent. a few, boosters and th
rest, knockers, what has the aqunti
been doing? What have the members
sacrificed? I'll try to tell you. They
have U-cn faithful, coming out almcst
every afternoon to practice, giving up
their play time. In addition to making
the sacrifice of time they have had to
soend money, for there are Items of
personal equpment which the school
docs not furnish. They have been
obedient responding to my every
whim and wish. As I said before they
received their bumps and bruises,
some more serious than others. In our
first game. Wood twisted his ankle so
that he was out for the rest ot the sea
eon; Simpson tried to change the di
rection of his nose; Matthews received
a severe bone bruise; Alex In Satur-
dy's game managed to mark his fin
gers. I believe, for a good many years
and Frlssell, played his last game,
There were several other casualties
but net as severe. With It all, the fel
lows came up smilingly, realizing, I
hope, that they were getting a taste
of some of life's knocks. They dta
learn discipline that lesBon that tells"
you that you must do a certain thing
when you are told to do it Without
discipline, signals would be valueless
and what should be a football gape
would be a young riot They also
learned the value of team-work as
compared to individual effort Then,
too. they learned a lesson In democ
racy. They learned that it was their
efforts that counted, that It was eacn
and everyone of them that was being
tested and not who their parents were
or what they were worth.
The school benefited by having a
football team this year if In no other
way than it has been advertised as a
school that sponsors clean athletics,
as a school that turned out a team that
fought until the last whistle blew.
The season is over. I want to thank
the members of the squad for the way
In which they supported me. It was a
pleasure to work with you.
So much is history . Let us look Into
the future.
Wednesday starts the basket ball
season. How are you going to support
it? The girls have been practicing for
a couple of weeks and are developing
strong fast team.
Last Wednesday, 40 of the boys re
ported as members of the basket ball
squad. Naturally some of them will
be eliminated but they have shown the
right spirit They have put' to shame
come of the boys of the school who
made no effort to come out for foot
ball and have not as yet said anything
bout coming out for basket ball. All
they have done has been to ridicule
some who have reported.
Can't we eliminate thia feeling?
Can't we all get behind the two squads
boys and girls and start them off
in good spirits with the feeling that
every member of the school is behind
them, that we believe in them, that we
know they will win? Sure we can. And
when we have done this, the boys and
girls will enter Into the practice with
more vim, competition for places on
the varsity will be more keen, new life
will be given to the coaches and the
sum of it all will be winning teams.
Mr. Noel will explain to you a plan
for the raising ot funds for expenses
of the basket ball teams. It Is a feas
ible plan and one that should and I
am sure 'will recelva the support of
every member of the High School so
when he presents it to you accept it
Then he will know how far he can go
toward getting equipment visiting
teams, etc.
Our first game is with Sardia and Is
to be played on our floor on December
1st Evory square inch of available
space in this room should be covered

What la the greatest word In the
English language? It all depends upon
circumstances. In. some Instances It
would be Mother; In time of tempta
tion, "No,"; then there ia that little
word. "It." These do not apply to
athlotlca. There Is a word of unknown
origin that has of late come into notice
which applies particularly to athletics.
It is "Spizzerinktum" and is defined
as "Pep" plus the "overmastering will
to succeed." The members of the
teams have the "will" but you and the
citizens of thia city must supply the
"pep." What to "PEP"?
To say "They will" when yon know
they can.
That's Pen.
To look for the best in every man,,
That's Pep.
To meet each thundering knock-oat
blow.
And come back with a laugh because
you know
You'll get the best of the whole darn
show,
That's Pep.

In work about the house fall and
winter have one big advantage over
Spring and Summer we don't have to
cut the grass. But we can't tell when
we will have to shovel snow.

A former local editor most every
yeer on a cold bleak morning In early
Spring would head his editorial col
umn.by saying, "Winter lingers In the
lap of Spring." It would be quite fit
ting this fall to reverse this editorial
squib and remark that Summer lingers
In the lap of Fall.

Although they are going to be high,
as usual. It looks like there will be

It is to be hoped that the provisions
of the city's milk ordinance will be en
forced against those who are failing
to comply with Its requirements. Fol
lowing the statement cf the Health Of
ficer that all known dealers in milk
have complied with the law, it was
stated on the floor of council Thursday
evening that the officer was mistaken
and names were called. Let's enforce
this law for it's a good one.

The Maysville football squad ha
closed the season. They did not win a
game but the boys got much experi
ence and should be enabled to put up a
pretty stiff brand of scrap next year.
Don't lose heart boys but come back
next fall. Basket ball will have our at
tention now until Spring. In this sport
. H. S. should fare better.
Another of the old landmarks has
gone. The old silver poplar at tne
Bloncbard corner, better known as
'Congress Corner", has been cut down.
Beneath this old tree has been dis
cussed in heated argument moat every
question that ever entered the mfnd
cf man. Scores who have loafed in its
shade have passed on. If it - coul l
tali. It would have had an Interesting
story to tell. All boys have trees they
remember as associated with high
lights In their chil.lhood. This old
tree was our best friend and held us
firmly the day we took the first chew
of tobacco. An old friend has gone.
There'a one man whe has demon- -
strated that he is stronger than his i

Lousvllle. While Miss Katheryn
Hammer was kneeling in prayer at the
Cathedral of the Assumption a week
ago her purse was stolen. Several
days later she received a leter stating
tbe purse had been stolen by one who
was hungry. The sender also wrote
that It would be returned in the same
manner in which it wa sstolen. Miss
Hammer found her purse, minus the

arose from prayer.

I DAIRY PROFITS MAT DROP
I IF COW'S SEEDS SLIGIfTRD.
Lexington. Ky. The tine of the
year is about here when the profits
irom Kentucky farm dairy herds be
gin t- drop unless cows are given good
feed and ktpt In comfortable barns,
according to J. J. Hooper, head of the
dairy department of the College ot
Agriculture. Although Kentucky win
tera are not as long or as severe as
those of the famous dairy sections ot
the North, the same careful methods
that help northern dairymen and
farmers get bigger profits from their
dairy cows can be used to advantage
by farmers In this state.
"From now until next spring, cows
should have a pound of mixed feed for
every . three and one-half pounds of
milk that they give, and In addition
should be ted ten pounds of clover, alf
alfa, or cowpea hay and 30 pounds of
silage dally. A good grain mixture
may be made of found pounds of corn
meal, two pounds of bran or shlpstuff
and two pounds of cootonsced meal.
It silage cannot be fed, some succulent
feed, like beet pulp, should be used
unless the cows can get plenty of
sreen grass. )
"Dairy cows cannot be given good
care at this tlmo of the year unless
thoy are kept in a barn all night and
part of the day. This being the case.
comfort and healthful surroundings
for the cow are of first importance.
Flenty of light good ventilation and
lots of clean bedding are the big Items
in making the cow comfortable. There
should be four square feet of window
class for each stall or stanchion while
the windows should be well distributed
so that each stable gets plenty of light
In order to get enough air, each cow
requires at least 500 cubic feet of
space The air In the stable must be
changed fresuently if it is to stay
fresh at all times. This should be done
without causing drafts of cold air on
the cows or without unduly lowering
the temperature in the s'able. Fresh
vr may be admitted through windows
hinged at the bottom and tipping in
ward.
