i FARMVILLE BEATS TWO
AND LOSES ONE CLOSE
1 Fremont was overwhelmingly de
feated by Farmville's fast quintdt
last Friday night by the score of SI
1 to 15.
Lang, who was closely guarded
in the Nashville game, got loose in
the Fremont contest and exhibited
his ability to find the basket by cag
ing the ball eight times. His score
' alone would have defeated Fremont,
but the other boys contributed fif
teen additional points. -

? however he retired in favor of Flan
agan who handled himself well when
his nerves allowed him to do his duty.
Skinner, who was not able to get
! in the Nashville game, showed up
well during the half that he played.
Although at times he appeared fo
1 play in such a manner as to cause 11
' the spectator to believe he was
afraid that he would error in his play- j
ing.
; Fremont's team was fast, clean ?
{? _ -i
and sporty. The team is smaller ,
than last year's, but it is full of i
fight ?
Peacock, the miniature forward,
was by far the star player for Fre
mont If the ball disappeared dur
ing the game it could be found by
finding Peacock.
He handled the ball more times (
than all the rest of his team mates. (
He caged the ball three times from ,
difficult positions. Time and again
he yas cheered for his clever pass- (
ing, fake plays and accurate shoot- ,
ing. . ^ |
Farmville fouled their opponents
ten times; Fremont fouled only eight, 3
however, one player committed the i
fatal fourth, which eliminated him
from the game. (
The Farmville Lions will seek
Nashville's scalp again Friday, No- (
vember 23, in Nashville. The Lions t
will then roar in their own den No
vember 28, while Mt. Pleasant at
tempts to annoy them.
The girls of Farmville high school
basket ball team took the girls of
Snow Hill into camp by the tune of
44 to 4 on Wednesday afternoon af
Snow Hill. The accurate shooting
of Dippie Baker and Lena Eason and
the guarding of Edna Earl Lewis
were tbe features of the game. Tfiie
team of F. H. S. passed fast and
snappy.
The players show every sign of de
veloping into a strong aggregation.
Come on, girls! We are with you.

| Chiropractic is a wonderful science
t jpf correcting physical defects arising
from various causes, is a science that
r j is growing in popularity and general
? favor day. A few years ago
J people looked askance upon the sug
| gestion that physical ailments could
be corrected through proper adjust
ment of tile spine, bat after, careful
study and investigation it has been
shown to the satisfaction pf fair
minded people that once the cause of
the trouble is sought and adjusted,
it would naturally follow that the
trouble would disappear. It is rea
j sonable when considered rightly to
see'that adjustments of the spine wHl
eliminate the cause of the trouble, for I
the spine houses the chord, the great
power conveyer for the power plant,
[the brain, and thence the nerves are
distrwutea to an pans gi w?o uvuj.
Thus when one of the vertebra be
come slightly displaced (subluxated)
it short circuits the nerves from the
spinal chord to the organ or organs
effected. Hence, nervous troubles de
velop; The nerves supplying the
stomach, the upper and lower bowels,
the heart, lungs, and liver and in fact
all the vital organs of the. body are
subject to derangement as has been
clearly demonstrated. Oftentimes to
the layman the cause being at the
spine is unnoticed. The paitent feels
simply run down, nervous and de
pressed. Chiropractors seeks out the
cause of the trouble (subluxation) j
and adjust it with their bare hands.
Thus science by eliminating the cause
of the disease enables nature to re
store the body to health. Chiroprac
tors claim, and jtistly so, that the
same nature that can heal, a scratch
r6r broken bone can and will when its.
nerve force is unhindered repair .the
softer organs ofthc body. In-its final
analysis Chiropractic is common sense
reduced to a science.
Dir. J. B. Hales, who has recently
opened an office in the "Bank of
Farmville, holds the degree of doc
tor and Philosopher of Chiropractic
of the P. S. C.
