BY Our Girls"

The first basket ball games of
the season were played upon the high
school campus Saturday and agood
crowd was in attendance.
The Falls City boys and girls teams
played the Humboldt teams with fine
success for our side. The girls won
by score of 80 to 2, while the boys
game was somewhat closer, being
2S to 10
This is our first game for this
season and our teams were not in
the best shape. owing to some diff
ferent players from last year taking
part lack of practice, but they need
no apology, for they were very much
there and our faith tells MS they will
repeat the successes of last year
In the girls game Florence Parch-
en- was at her best and played one of
the best games she ever played.
Bertha Stumbo was a close second
and the big scores We're credited TO
those two, though all the girls play

they were clearly outclassed but they
had the ability. and that's what

Like the girls team. there has
been necessary changes in the line
up of the boys team and though
some of the boys did not play as
good a game as usual there was no
fault to find. Our boys Jagged in the

their score.
There was little scrapping and for
the most part the games We're peace

it's advancement. All would like to
interest the city in the matter and
obtain their cooperation and assist

 'GThe American man, said the charm jug princess, Sis rightly held ap to the world as the pattern husband. ln Europe they have saying about Eve and the apple which shows how wretch ed failure the European hus band is. This saying is unknown in America, l am sure. It would have no point, no application, here in the land of pattern husbands"
 She paused impresslvely. Then with a smile she ended:
 "The saying is this: 'The evil one didn't give the apple to the man, but to the woman, because the evil one knew well that the man would eat it all himself, but that the woman would go halves"
