GIRLS ATHLETIC
CIRCUS

The girls of the Freshman
class have added another victory
to the achievements of their. first
year by winning the athletic cir
Gus which was held at the gym
nasium last Friday afternoon.
The occasion was somewhat of a
carnival of sport, divided into
two main parts, the circus being
one and the inter-class basketball
games the other. While the
Freshman girls easily won the
circus they were unable to get
into the final basketball game,
losing the semi-fnal to the Pre-
paratory girls, 7 to 3. The Sen
ior-Sophomore game resulted in
an easy victory for the upper
class girls, the Sophomores max
ing but one point to the Seniors
six, and in the final game the
Seniors won from the Prepara-
tory girls, 6 to 0. From the
showing made in the games Fri
day the majority of the girls
varsity team will probably be
chosen from the Seniors.
The teams lined up as follows;
Seniors-Ada Whitaker, CEN
ter; Lea Lampson and Mable
Joyce. forwards; Laura Thomp-
son and Ella Kennel, guards.
Sophomores - Mary Monlux,
center; Ida Woodward and Fran
els Devin, forwards; Mabel 10y
and Katherine Savage. guards.
Freshmen - Alvina jennings,
center; Blanch Free and Miss
Nasberg, forwards Anna Schnei-
der and Blanch CAMS, guards.
Eelmentary-Anna Pratt, CEN
ter; Alice Wagnon and Grace
Colley, forwards; Lena Clark,
Zoe Bean and Hazel Reed,
guards.
The circus part of the exhibit
tion began with a parade of all
the classes, which was led by the
Sophomore girls costumed as a
band, preceded by a dignified
drum major. Following the Soph-
omore band came the Senoir
girls in the dress uniforms of
the cadet corps. One of the Sen
ior girls was costumed to repre-
S ent all the classes, wearing a
Senior cap, Junior sombrero,

and yello cap of the
Freshmen. Various combinations
of the different class sweaters
and sweater coats were used and
with her were a group of Senior
girls wearing the brilliant orange
and black 1909 coat.
The hits of the parade were the
take offs on the Sophomore class
by the Freshman girls. Immedi-
ately following the many mascots
came group of girls costumed
as members of the hospital corps
and carrying litter, the pros
trate form of a dummy, labelled
"SOPH." F." Two Freshman girls
as babies carrying milk bottles
and pulling little carts along Gre
ated considerable amusement,
and Bessie Beckett as a bride
and Estelle Trellen as the groom
received a large share of praise.
During the intermission be-
tween the basketball games a
gaily decked squaw moved leis-
urely to the center of the floor
and spread her blanket. A skill
full manipulation of the alcohol
lamp produced a very realistic
open camp fire. She was a med
icine Indian and brewed many
brilliantly colored concoctions,
murmuring soft incantations over
them as they were poured from
bowl to bowl. Miss Lilly Kyllo-
men was the Medicine Indian. :"

Reward of Honesty.

One day last week teacher in Bolton
School picked up in the street a chamois
bag, and peering inside, saw some dia-
monds. Advertisements telling OF the
loss of 5000 worth of diamonds led the
school teacher TO the residence OF the
owner, the wife OF downtown merchant.
incidentally a reward was offered, but
the woman who found them is of char
acter too high TO make reward thing
TO be considered in such a case. She
carried the diamonds TO the woman who
had lost them and the latter seized them
with all the Joy that woman could pos
sibly show on the recovery OF her jewels.
"And now" said the woman, "you
shall have reward of $40 if you take it
out in trade in my husbands shop"
The school teachers sense OF humor
prevented her from showing any disgust
and she told the owner that she could
not think of taking a reward for common
honesty and was only too glad to lind the
owner. During the conversation the
woman was counting the diamonds, and
she suddenly broke out with:
zone OF them is missing One OF
them is missing! What are you going
to do about that ?"
"The best lean do about that, " replied
the school teacher, 'is to wish that more
were missing. Good day."

The most successful remedy in this
country for the cure of all forms of
female complaints is Lydia Z. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. 1t has
stood the test of years and to-day is
more widely and successfully used than
any other female remedy. 1t has cured
thousands of women who have been
troubled with displacements, inflam-
nation, liberation, fibroid tumors, ir-
regularities, periodic pains, backache,
that bearing-down feeling, fiatulency,
Indigestion, and nervous prostration,
after all other means had failed.
If YOU are suffering from any of these
ailments, don't give up hope until you
have given Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound trial.
If YOU would like special advice
write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn,
Mass, for it. She has guided
thousands to health, free OF

MEXICAN JACALS.
Primitive Huts In the Villages Of tho
Native Indians.

Primitive Huts In the Villages Of tho
Native Indians.
The Mexican Indian huts In the VII
lagos and upon the ranches Of the
lower Rio Grande border region OF
Texas have style Of architecture and
construction that is distinctly their
own. This type Of primitive building
is rapidly passing out Of existence. At
many places on the border families Of
Mexicans have abandoned their jacals
and moved into more pretentious
homes.
No money outlay is necessary in
erecting the old style picturesque struc-
lures; neither Is a knowledge Of car
pentry needed. A double row Of up
right poles firmly set or driven into the
ground forms the framework for the
walls. Between these two rows Of
poles are placed other poles or sticks
Of shorter length, forming q thick and
compact wall. At each Of the four
corners Of the building posts are set,
reaching to height Of about eight
feet Roughly hewn stringers are laid
from one post to another, and to these
stringers are tied other poles that form
the framework Of the walls. The
strong fiber from the maguey plant or
strips of buckskin are used to tie the
poles into position. The rafters are
tied to the ridgepole and the stringers
in the same manner. At one end Of
the building is built the opening
through which the smoke Of the inside
fire may ascend. Stoves are unknown
among these Mexicans, and the cook
ing Is all done upon the ground.-Kan-
