tleman who refereed the basket
ball game between Tarkio COL
lege and our high school team
hunted up Prof. Hurst and said
to him:
Il want you to know that you
have the fastest and Gle eanest
high school basket ball team we
have ever met, During this
season we have played nine high
school teams but none of them
are in your class. In fact, we
had to put in our fresh players
in the second half to insure win-
ming the game.
1--WE were told in Humboldt, y
he continued, chat we would
meet a rough team down here,
but | have never seen cleaner
playing and [ wanted the oppor-
tunity to congratulate you not
only on the ability of your team
but on the perfect gentlemen
that make up its membership. y
Now ism t that as good as VIM
ming the game?

The Servant in The House.

What is 1.-THE Servant in The
House?" 1t is not farcical ac.
count of the adven lures OF Chris
tine or Bridget. Neither is it a
sugar coated dose of the latest
results of investig alton of the
domestic service problem. 1t is
not a tragedy in the usual sense
of that term, for the closing
scene of "The Servant in the
House" is not one of death or
disaster, but of JOY and triumph.
Yet we hesitate to call it come.
dy because of the serious nature
of its theme.
What then is this strange
play? 1t is enacted without a
change of scene; it records the
events of only a few hours; it
lacks the love-theme of the usual
drama. 1t is an anomaly among
modern plays, and yet one of the
most widely, and we may ad-
visedly say, deeply successful,
for It's effect is not superficial.
Why is it that the average the
ater audience bent on pleasure,
seeking merely diversion or ex-
element, receives with profound
enthusiasm this play SO differ
ent from what is usually offered
to IT, so different from what it
thinks it desires?
The answer is that "The Ser.
want in the House points not to
what each one thinks he desires,
but to what at the bottom of his
soul be unconsciously does de-
sire-spiritual purifcatlon and
peace-the JOY of salvation.

TARKIO BOYS WIN THE Came
THREE GAMES OF BASKET Ball
THIS WEEK
Our Girls We're Defeated at Tecur-.
sch Saturday the First
Time this Season

So far as the score was con-
cerned the game was all wrong,
for the Tarkio college team was
on the long end 81 to Il, but so
far as superior basket ball was
concerned it was the finest ever
seen in Falls City.
The boys knew they were bea~
ten to start with, for Tarkio had
bested Humboldt 40 to Is and
Humboldt has a good team SO far
as high school teams go. But
for kids to go up against a sure
thing the way our boys did Mon"
day night and fight it out inch by
inch against almost oyerwhelul"
ing odds is sight worth seeing
TO anyone who has touch Of
sporting blood in him.
The first half could not have
been prettier or more even. Every
point counted was on its merits.
and the points we're not many
either, for the first half closed
with a score of IL to :. Then
Tarkio awoke to the realization
that it was up against real
team. But in the second halt the
visitors put in fresh men and they
finally wore our boys down.
1t was really funny to see the
desperate efforts of our tired boys
to guard fresh men of twice their
weight. In many instances the
powerful Tarkio men would liter"
ally wipe up the floor with some
Falls City boy, but never did our
team lose courage and meyer did
they stop fighting until the last
ten minutes of the game during
which time the visitors made most
of their scores. While, as in all
games, the boys justified the pride
of their loyal followers, it would
be unfair to report this game
without special mention of Amos
Yoder. The writer has never
seen a finer game than Yoder
played Monday night and there
was not minute of the game nor
a play pulled off that Amos did
not have his opponent lashed 70
the mast" and taking his medi.
cine.
Tarkio not only presented the
best team that has ever played in
Falls City, but it sent crowd of
yopng gentlemen and good sports
men III every sense of those terms.
The referee, who was from Tar.
kio, was very fair in all his rul
Jugs.
AT Tecumseh Saturday our
boys defeated the basket ball team
of that place by a score of 80 to
-. The Tecumseh team put up
a better game than they played
at this place and it was exciting
from start to finish.
Our girls were defeated at Te-
cumseh by score of 13 to 9.
They have played good ball all
season and the defeat was prob
ably due to the fact that two of
the regular players were unable

home with Mr.. and Mrs. Will
Holt west of this city. The
