A big game hunter of many years

cry day he posed in a complacent at
titude beside a freshly killed lion and
his photographer snapped him for the
magazines.
One afternoon the photographer, who
was taking a nap in the hut, was
awakened by a loud noise. He rose
and looked out. S%printing toward him
from the jungle. hat gone and coat
tails flying, came his chief, and with
terrible roars and growls a huge lion
bounded at his heels.
The photographer gazed s%pellbound
at the strange and exciting picture.
His chief, perceiving him, shouted:

I G. SCHOOL TIDINGS.

There will be no school next Fri
day, owing to Lincoln's birthday being
recognized as a legal holiday, it be-
ing the centenary anniversary of his
birth. No "~off-days" in the different
subjects will be given this week, in
stead class will recite every day.
Yesterday morning Professor NOEL
roy made a few remarks concerning
the Hammond-Crown Point game. The
floor was not regulation size and the
baskets were low. The ceiling was
just about the roof. on the sides the
brick and sharp little pieces of mortar
were left exposed and this made it
bad to play.
The game was a regular scheduled
one, supposed TO be played on a regu-
lation size floor. The team ~iourneyed
down there and found things to be
quite different. They played one-half.
but Manager McElroy saw that it was
an injustice to let the game go on,
so Hammond left the floor. The score
was 81 to 13 in Crown Points favor, but
Hammond is not used to playing in a
box Il Crows Point IS.
The local management notified Crown
Point that the Hammond team would
play the c~ounty-seat boys on any neu-
trail floor, providing it comes up to the
rules. and furthermore Hammond Will
finance it; Crown Point not needing
to shoulder this responsibility. The
game can also be cancelled.
This is as fair as any proposition
could be stated, and its up to Crown
to decide. If Crown Point thinks that
they can master Hammond; the local
team has given them a fair proposition,
so they car try their skill.
The next team 70 play basketball
with Hammond will be Gary. The game
viii be played in the auditorium. as
the last one was played at Gary. Ham
mond emerged the victor In the last
contest by a good margin. and then
the game was played under adverse
conditions. This time things Will be
different, and, although the Hammond
team seems to have the advantage
nevertheless a lively contest is looked
for when the boys from the steel city
and the local aggregation clash.
Orchestra practice was held las
: night in the assembly room.

THE VIRTUE OF SLEEP.

When just little German boy
Fresh from the Fatherland,
I viewed the open years with JOY
And dreamed of future grand.
AS stood on the dock midst the anxious
throng
And gazed over the bounding deep,
Nv heart beat high as hummed the song,
"Oh. Sweet Are the Virtues of Sleep.
And from that song inspiration came
With boundless ambition and hope,
And urgedsby unwaverlng desire became
The greatest dispenser of dope.
Oh, mapy's the one my advertisement
charmed
To great lamentation and palms.,
And many's the one that is sleeping en-
balmed
With a hogshead of dope in their veins.
