me."
The above statement was given on

"I know Doan's Kidney Pills are

a preventative to keep my kidneys
in a healthy condition. I have the
best of faith in Doan's and can recom
mend them as a reliable remedy."

HIGH SCHOOL
WINS OPENING
GAME HERE
DEFEATS COUNCIL BLUFFS EE
SERVES YESTERDAY BY
A 13 TO 0 SCORE.
From Saturday's Pally.
The boys who comprise the Platts
mouth high school football team cer
tainly deserve all the credit that can
be given them for the splendid ex
hibition of skill and science in their
game yesterday afternoon with the
Council Bluffs Reserves. It was their
first home game of the season and
was a good one throughout.
The local eleven showed speed and
a thorough knowledge of the game in
their offensive plays and had the
visitors outclassed and on the defen
sive the greater part of the time.
While the work of the Plattsmouth
team as a whole was good, the par
ticular stars of the game that shown
with resplendent lustre were Frank
Gradoville the quarter and Louis
Svoboda. left half back, both of whom
made the visitors very weary under
the stress of their skillful handling
of th-e ball.
Line plunges were largely used by
the locals, especially in the opening
half of the game. On the other hand,
the visitors, who were on the defen
sive most of the time, relied on kick
ing the ball which was constantly
being carried into their territory.
The aerial passes attempted by the
Plattsmouth team were completed in
great shape and usually resulted in
decided gains.
At the opening, the Plattsmouth
team on securing the ball, .settled
down to a series of line plunges that
brought them into the enemy terri
tory, a forward pass from Gradoville
to Svoboda netting a large gain. As
the first quarter closed the locals
were but a few feet from .the Council
Bluffs goal.
In the opening of the second quar
ter the visitors were given the ball
and made an Ineffective attempt to
force the game from their goal into
the Plattsmouth territory, but the
locals quickly carried it back to the
ten yard line and by a series of
plunges In which the visitors were
badly outclassed, the ball was carried
over by Svoboda for a touchdown by
the score of 6 to 0, Plattsmouth fail
ing t kick goal.
The second half opened with the
locals hot on the trail of the visitors
and on the kick off by Plattsmouth
they downed the visitors on the Coun
cil Bluffs twenty yard line and by
desperate work the Reserves were
able to force the figlit toward the
center of the field by a punt.
The last touchdown was secured
in the last portion of the game when
Svoboda. with the clever interference
of his team mates succeeded in push
ing over in line plunges for a touch
down. In the line of interference the
high school showed much skill and
played a fine game throughout in ad
vancing the ball into the enemy ter
ritory and providing protection for
the man carrying the ball in getting
through the line.
The line up of the team was as
follows: Troop, center; Smith, right
guard; Renner, right tackle; Chase,
right end; Matchalott, left guard;
Warga, left tackle; Godwin, left end;
Gradoville, quarter; Svoboda, left
half back; Hendricks, right half
back; Ptak. full back.
Fremont High will be here next
Friday afternoon for a game.
Grip
Grip usually starts Just the same
as a cold with a watery discharge
from the nose. You are much more
likely to contract the grip when you
have a cold. For that reason when
grip is prevalent you should go to
bed as soon as you feel that you are
taking cold and stay in bed until
fully recovered which should not be
long if you take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Three days in bed now Is
better than three weeks later on.
