WHITMAN PLAYED GREAT GAME

Missionaries Saturday.

Saturdays game: Multnomah, 3;

When 1t comes to football. the
missionary certainly knows his bust
ness. The tall, rangy, kangaroo
shaped lads from Walla walla play
the game con amore. and the Multi
nomah team had the "Thls-is-our-
busy-day" sign out all the time they
We're on the field Saturday afternoon.
The score-9 to O-does not tell
as much about the game as the cur
sory reader would imagine. It took
the hardest sort of playing the em
ployment of every honorable trick
and artifice of football; the swift.
oatlike rush of the light quarters.
the heavy, concentrated sweep of the
backs and repeated mass plays TO
win the second game of the season
for the clubmen. At one time there
was but two men afoot: all the
others we're adding their mite to a
splendid kaleidoscope of red and
white and blue and gold. which shone
gayly out OF wild melee of arms
and legs; when the tumult, including
the shouting of the captains, ceased.
and the picture dissolved, the me-
teor-like but buried Lonergan receiv-
ed the kindly ministrations OF DR.
zan and an ovation from friend and
foe alike for a sensational. blood
moving run OF SO yards around the
missionaries right end. Lonergan
was full of such tricks.
The game was worth seeing; In
deed, Whltman's Balrd-sans re-
proche-said Il was worth coming
from Walla Walla to play I'm, The
afternoon satisfactorily answered
the question OF what Is rarer than
day in June9" The well-filled
grandstand was decked In pretty
dresses and the gay colors Of the
rival teams; the rooters were many
and enthusiastic, and when overuse
had robbed their voices OF the neces-
sary far-reachlng quality. employed
the untuned trumpet. horn and meg
aphone to express the emotions OF
the hour.

MARRIAGE AFTER PROBATION.

In Texas, where people do surpris-
ing and original things, the institu-
ton OF marriage after probation has
been introduced. The thing was
started bv rich farmer who adVer-
tised for a wife, but specified that
the applicant should serve as his
housekeeper for certain length of
time in order that she should have
a chance to prove her ability and
temper 1t happened that the far
mer was satisfied with the very first
applicant and married the lady after
a brief period of housekeeping pro-
baton It is hoped hat the pair
will live happily ever after. But the
real fact is that their probation
began only after they were married.
