ANOTHER FORD IN BAD
The following clipping from the
Maumee Advance-Era explains,he
situation thoroughly, but since
then "The Plot has Thickened"
and "The Villian is Still Pursuing
Him:"
Adopt Peace Terms.
M. U. Jarrett, manager of the local
telephone exchange, came into a col
lision with another machine as he was
'uiLjrauuig riiuujF evening. A&ia tttL
struck amidships another one going
east on Broadway. Both drivers got
out looked over the damage, discussed
the relative blame for the accident, and
shook hands and mounted their re
spective cars and rode on, each agree
ing to stand the expense of his own
repairs, and eachshouldering his share
of the blame. Itwas a regular Damon
Pythias, Alphonse - Gaston climax.
Both cars were more or less jammed
and wrinkled.
T3ut the story doesn't end here.
W. H. Hannah of Tontogany, the
owner of the other car, has
changed his tactics and doesn't
want to remain a Damon-Pythias,
Alphonse-Gaston, (maybe because
he found that Jarrett 's car was a
"Ford") and is trying 'now to
iaim damages.
Better give him the Ford!
METHODIST EPISCOPAL
OHUROH
W. H. Spybey, Pastor.
These are momentous days for
the world, the nations and for the
church. How shall the church, so
be set on fire with zeal that it will
arise and take the world to its
heart and win it to God? Prayer
is the secret of releasing the pow
er of God. Pray that the world
may hear of Christ, that the
church masr be saved from sin, that
God may reign over the nations of
the whole earth.
Next Sunday 's sermon subjects :
"Individuality." At night "The
Capture of Palestine," in pictures.
3:00 p. m., pastor's membership

Thursday evening, prayer meet
ing followed by third quarterly
conference, led by Dr. E. E. Mc
Cammon. A welcome is extended to all of
these meetings.
CIVIC ASSOCIATION FLASHLIGHTS
It is better to weir out than rust out. Cumberland
Did you ever find out whether you are real honest ,or not by
going to a mirror and looking yourself squarely in the eye for several
minutes?
Nice shade trees and well kept lawns always beautify a town so
let us all take notice and wake up.
' Did you know that Perrysburg might become up-to-date by
owning a chemical fire engine? Let us talk to Mr. George Munger
about it.
Let us not be like a colt by acting "fits and starts", but remain
steady and work all the time like the Ford.
Do you approve of the banner on Main St? We do.

The town team vs. the strong
Broadway M. E. quintet was the
best game that the town team has
played this season. The Broad
way five is one of the strongest
teams of Toledo and has defeated
Perrysburg in all previous games.
The first half was slow and time
dragged very slowljr and when the
whistle was blown Perrysburg had
4 points to Broadway's 11.
The second half saw new life in
the local five and by fast playing
Perrysburg managed to cop the
second half with a large margin.
Total score, Perrysburg, 26;
Broadway M. E. 's, 15. Scoring as
lollows :
Perrysburg: Nietzr-16 : Smith, 8 :
E. Thomas, 2. Total, 26. Broad
way M. E.'s, Mumis, 1: Trautwem,
7; Worst, 4; Schneider, 2. Total 15.
The game was not as clean a
game as tho people are used to see
ing, for on several occasions the
players would indulge in a fist
light over practically nothing at
all.
Next year the town team will
have some new candidates for
places on their illustrious five.
Thoy are, Roberts, Johnson and
Hartzoll, three eac-P. H. S. players.
These men, all graduate this term
and have all expressed their de
sire to join the town team.
