Newport 13—Searcy 12.
Newport people had a sample j
of real football Saturday when ,
the Searcy high school boys met j
the gridiron at the fair grounds. j
The teams played like veterans
from the very start. On the
toss up Searcy won and receiv
ed Newport’s kick.
Searcy made steady gains on |
Newport’s goal in the first quar
ter, until within twenty-two j
yards of making goal, when up- j
on an attempted end run Moore.
Searcy’s left half, fumbled, and '
Wise, Newport’s little full back,
recovered the ball, found an o
pen field and made a seventy-,
eight yards run for the first
touchdown. A minute later he ,
kicked goal
The ball see-sawed up and
down the field for the remaind-1
er of the second without either
team having a chance to score.
During the third quarter the j
jinks entered Newport’s ranks
and before it could be eliminated
Searcy had made two touch
downs, the score standing 12
to 7, in favor of the visitors.
In the fourth quarter New
port came back strong and by
a series of end runs and line
plunges made her second touch
down just 30 seconds before
time was called. Every man was
at his post all the time.
Wise, the little full back for
Newport, succeeded in landing
the pigskin over the line under
Searcy’s goal on both occasions
and received a big share of the
glory, but each of his team mates

The Newport girls lost their

Only for the excellent work of
the guards this would have been
so.
Most of the local girls are

The girls are determined to
get down to hard practice and

showed a wonderful improve

_ SUBSTITUTION.
The imitator 1s like the coun
terfeiter. He enters the field of
business with a cheaper, lower
grade article of merchandise,
made as a substitute for the gen
uine, and generally sold at a
cheaper price, arguing, ns usual,
that it is “just as good.” The
dealer is persuaded to handle it
on glowing promises of enormous
profits—much larger than the reg
ular legitimate profit which Is
made on the genuine article. The
imitator succeeds in playing upon
man's natural avarice, places his
I instructs him to take advantage
of the public by substituting the
false article for the genuine at
every opportunity. You can be
: pretty sure that whenever you
ask for a well-known product and
the dealer tells you he has some
I thing else that’s just as good, or
| even better, tire dealer is going to
make a greater profit on that ar
ticle than the one you call for.
and in nine cases out of ten you
will get a much inferior article.
Some buyers are easily imposed
upon and this encourages the
“get-rich-quick” schemers to in
crease their substitutions. This
also discourages the legitimate
manufacturer who is putting out
articles of merchandise that rep
resent' honest value to the con
sumer. Where a man has devoted
years of his life in perfecting an
article that he knows cannot be
excelled in quality: where he has
spent thousands of dollars In ad
vertising his goods: and where
these goods have been giving uni
versal satisfaction for a long
time, great injury results by per
mitting substitution to rob hint
of his market and at the same
time rob the consumer by selling
him a doubtful article at practi
cally the same price. -
* There is no law through which
such evil practices can be stopped.
The sole remedy is for the legiti
mate manufacturers to ask the
public direct not to patronize
dealers who try to substitute a
different brand of goods for the
kind wanted. All first class deal
ers know that it is poor business
to try to substitute something
else for the article wanted.
There is a Certain-teed dealer in your
locality who will be "pleased to give you
further information about our goods and
will quote you reasonable prices. If
the goods are made by us, remember—
we stand behind them.
