GRAND RAPIDS DEFEATED
AT STEVENS POINT

The Stevens Point Foot Ball team
defeated Grand Rapids at Stevens
Point Saturday with score of 9 to 0.
Five Grand Rapids players were uu-
able to play in the game, thus making
the local eleven a mixture of fr>ts
and scrubs. A crowd of students
and teachers from this city went to
Stevens Point to root for the home
team The boys hope to be in con-
dition for a good game with Wausau u
here next Saturday. The Stevens
Point Journal has the following to
say concerning the game:
The Grand Rapids High school foot
ball team came up on the early train
on the Green Bay & Western this
morning., and played the Normal team
at the fair grounds this afternoon.
The game resulted in a score of to
0 in favor Of Stevens Point.
The Grand Rapids team claims
their defeat was largely due to four of
their regular men being crippled and
unable to play today.
The lineup was as follows:

ter tracking it there was forced to
wade into about three feet of water
to get his team hitched up. Now
this is not very pleasant thing to
do at midnight, especially at this sea-
Son of the year.
Another farmer who also attended
the same lodge that evening started
for home and one of the wheels of
the buggy came off and a serious ac-
cident was narrowly averted. Upon
burrs from two wheels had been re-
moved and the same could not be
found. AS a consequence the owner
Of the rig was forced to walk home.
The perpetrators of such deeds, es-
pecially the latter one, should be ap-
pretended and examples made of
them.

Congregational church next Sunday

TRAINING SCHOOL
HALLOWEEN PARTY

The Juniors of the Wood County
Normal entertained the Seniors Fri
day evening at a Halloween party in
the school building. The entire pro-
gram for the evening was of such a
nature that those present would have
found it hard to forget the signifi-
canoe of the occasion. Fortune tell
ing by ghosts and witches in weird
costumes provided no little amuse-
ment for the guests, as they heard
their future life chanted off by the
spirits. The time passed very quick
~, no doubt because the crowds of
young people found difficulty in pro-
viding amusement for every minute
during the evening.
Appropriate refreshments were ser
we'd after which those who were at
all musically inclined spent a half
hour singing strains of familiar tunes
ending finally with Good Night La
dies" The gentle hint was taken
and they all departed for their various
Zones.

But there is really only one question where
