SCARCITY OF FUNDS Athletio Association Treasurer Refuses to Turn Over Key to His Vault. The Mattoon high school foot ball team, which opested the season so auspiciously by defeating the strong Arcola men on the local gridiron, 18 more, and for the first time in years. Mattoon is without a tative in the foot ball field. The reason ascribed for the disbanding of the team is that the school volunteered the team no support. Since the Tuscola game, which resulted in the defeat of the Mattoon braves, the team has been ed, many of the strongest players having been disabled in that flerce contest with the Douglas county It was thought, however, that by procuring the services of an efficient coach the team could be rejuvenated, as the material was of the best and only required beating Into shape.

They Come Too High. Negotiations, accordingly, were entered into with Rothgeb and Cook of the University of Illinois, but it was found that these men held their services at too high a price, the school board allowing only $25 of the athletic association's funds for this purpose, while Rothgeb demanded $25 a week and expenses, and Cook was only a little more modest, asking $20 a week and expenses, To produce this som it would have been necessary for the members of the eleven to draw heavily upon their own resources, and this they felt they could not. do. Therefore, a meeting was held after classes in the assembly room at the high school building Wednesday, ard with regret the players agreed trat it would be best for them to dis band.

MAKE PLEA FOR CASH MESSAGES TO HUSBANDS FROM ILLINOIS FEDERATION OF: WOMAN'S CLUBS, COULD ESCAPE DEBT Delegates Unite in Praising Idea, But Fear That the Men Will Not Agree.

Special to The Journal October women want allowances. They want their daughters to have allowances and they believe every woman and girl should learn to live within her allowance. That women do not do so the members of the Illinois Federatton of Woman's Clubs are free to admit. The subject was discussed in the morning session of the convention here today and the husbands and fathers who refuse to make allowances to the feminine members of their families were severely censured. Miss Margaret Mather, head of the domestic science department of the Agricultural college of Kansas, opened the discussion when she said: "I know a man whose income is $12,000 a year who has a champagne appetite himself and wno allows his wife: the sour beer income of $1,200 and 'he expects her to run the house on that too." BOTTOW from the Store, To prove this point other women cited innumerable cases of wives of rich men who have no allowance at all.

It was further asserted that many such women have absolutely no money to spend, that they are forced to draw on their accounts with large department stores and have the loan appear on the monthly bill, disguised as a purchase. Thatthe largest stores of cities- -Chicago at least -have regular arrangements for this sort of thing and that is very generally practiced by women, the members acknowledge. They even go so far as. to say that club women themselves are not above resorting to this small dishonesty. In discussing the question further Miss Mather said: "I can't tell how long it has been, but it is a long time, since I have found a family where the sons and daughters are living on an allowance.

Neglect Causes Embezzlement. "The wives who have allowances are even more rare. Many women not only do not have allowances, but they do not know what the husband's income is. Now, I ask, how can they run their households wisely? How can they live within the'r means? If they acquire, luxurious habits is it their It they dress too well who is to blame? Yet many men let their wives go in ignorance while they are led to embezzlement in their etfort to make ends meet. "Why should not girl learn the value of a dollar? Why is it not just ag necessary for her to learn to spend money as for her brother? She should have her allowance, small at Arst, and growing larger as she.

grows and as her needs broaden. She should learn from the first to buy her clothes, not all of them, when she 18 young, but in gradually increasing numbers until she is practicaly mistress of her financial condition. "I' say, it women had the true idea of the value of a dollar many of the perplexities of our present living would not exist. For one thing we could not live as elaborately as we do, nor dress as extravagantly. The woman who manages her finances wisely proportions her income to meet her needs.

She decides how much her household shall cost her and how much she can spend for clothes. There are no conflicts and she is never in debt." SOLDIERS' REUNION IS HELD AT NEOGA The thirty-eighth annual reunion of the twenty-first Illinots infantry is now being held at Neoga, having menced this morning.
