in the homes, wishes to announce that
he has moved to Weatherford and is
now located in the third floor of the
Kutenian Building and is prepared to
do work in his new studio or come

beautiful, and considering the kind of
quality he puts in it, is very cheap.

COYOTES VICTORIOUS
OVER JOHN TARLETON
FOOT BALI. HUSKIES
Smarting under the defeat at the
hands of Decatur last week, the Wea-
therford College eleven came back
strong yesterday and on their home
ground swrmped the big John Tarle-
tor> team in a score of 2S to 6. Few
expected the locals to hold the heavy
aggies, who outweighed the Coyotes
12 or 15 pounds to the man. This
overconfidence may have had some-
thing to do with the farmers’ defeat,
but the greatest factor in their down-
fal' was the superb playing of the
home team Almost every man of
whom flashed such surprises from
every angle that the Stephenville lads
were completely swept off their feet
from the very first,
i While the victory was due principal-
ly to a veritable machine, constructed
under the tutoring of Coaches Greg-
ory and I.eiper to be ready for any-
thing that might happen, and working
perfectly in all its parts, still

Among these were Fhill Back Ray-
mond Pierce, who seemed to be every-
where in the enemy’s camp, made
three of the touchdowns, one on a for-
ward pass and two from intercepted
passes which he snatched from the

Cardui, which this lady found so help-
