Emmet School Notes

The double header" basket ball between Sutton and Emmet was very interesting. The first teams played first. The moon fxers" got up in the sky and commenced business at once, but tn e "potato-grabbers" troubled them around the knees so much that they could not throw goals successfully. At the close of the first half Sutton had succeeded in throwing only five goals or rather making 5 points. Our boys by diligently picking up the balls as they were dropped cut of the sky, managed also to make 5 points in the first half. In the second half we were not so successful, and the final score stood IA to $ in favor of Sutton. The second teams then played. The final score was 8 to 1 in favor of Emmet. We play Hope next Saturday, October 30.

Jim Corbett.
Harry Lehr was the originator of the
"slap on the wrist" The original idea
of giving a monkey dinner was also
under Harry's silk lid. But
the greatest and most original idea that
was ever born in Harry's brain was
when he conceived the thought of
getting down on all fours and playing
dog for the edification Of the ladies.
Now you will probably say, and with
some truth, that Harry is cross be-
tween q mollycoddle and sissy, but
it was these silly and original capers
that won for him wife worth fifteen
million dollars.
Carrie Nation had been engaged fol
years in the work of lifting up fallen
humanity from the mire of sin with a
derrick of salvation, but she never at.
tracted public attention, nor got hel
picture in the papers until after she
made that original hit with her battle
axe. That was only few years agt
and today Carrie is worth in the neigh
borhood of five hundred thousand dol

In his annual message, Mayor Lee deprecafes attempts to 'tarray class nGaiust class referring presumably dto endeavors to awaken the people aEninst the railroad grab of II acres ox harbor area and Interpreting those sndeavors as attempts to ''array class aGninst class" We do not accept the 1nferpretation as correct, but if it is, the reverse of the proposition must also be correct, viz, that the advo- eates of the grab not only attempted but succeeded in applying to Bridge port the class distinction of railroads VI cities, which is found in quite gen. eral operation throughout the coun- try
 But Is it not quite absurd to assert that attempts to defend a city's inter ests against corporate greed must be chased as "arraying class against cIass?r Are railroads so sacred, in the Mayor's view, that their wishes must be granted without opposition, on pain of the offenders against that rule being stigma tized as disturbers of the public peace who invite anarchy by arraying 'sclass against class?''
 Mayor Lee impeaches the intelli- eence of his protesting constituents ana casts a doubt upon his own, when he resorts to such puerile arguments to sustain his position.
