choice yesterday afternoon between
two games. one was played at the
Normal grounds J-twecn the Normal
team and the Phoenix high and the
other was played on the high school
grounds between the Tempe and Mesa

Neither game was one of the inter

or the Mesa high belong to the league

TO SAVE STOCKINGS.

y business woman who declares that
clean stockings are a luxury and one
which she can maintain with just
three pairs. says that her method of
caring for them saves them greatly
apd that her modest stock lasts much
longer than the larger number owned
by friends who do not take the same
care of them. She always washes the
stockings when they come from the
store before they are worn. She washes
them every time they are worn. When
she reaches her home after the days
work at the office. she changes her
stockings and puts on her slippers.
That night before she retires. she
washes the pair she wore through the
day at the office and the one worn in
the evening in tepid water using good
soap. rinses them thoroughly and lets
them dry at the open window or before
the register.

PEOPLE Who DRIFT.

Are you drifting? Then take VI
The world is full Of drifting people.
They get into a fairly good boat,
then sit idly gazing into space. OF
contentedly watch the ripping water
Glow by. Never care or realization
Of how far they drifted until a glance
shows them that they are in UNI
familiar or forbidden waters.
Then they want to change things
They take up the oars and try to
row against the current. Like as not
they find that for want of practice
they are unfit FOR the task. IL is
hard work, harder than they dreamed
il could be. but they realize that they
must get back up stream. and so pull
and work hard. Perhaps. just as
they reach the point where the row
sheer exhaustion.
That's just it Too many people
drift Good people. really earnest
people, truly able people. Then they
attempt To make up for their drowsy
dreaming by pulling hard and per
sistently They make violent jerks
and shoves ahead. and reverse mo-
tons. that wear them out and finish
them before they have a chance to
redeem themselves.
The athlete out of practice for
time. intending To enter a Marathon
race. wouldn't think of attempting to
cover the course i'm record time at
his first practice attempt He would
measure his strength and his powers
of endurance and run all that he
could cover with safety, speeding up
as he got used to exercise, for he
knows that in that way he would
have some chance to win the cOntem-
plated race.
Just so with those who have been
drifting in other things. They must
get ready by degrees for the up

them
It's easy and pleasant to drift
That's why we see people of ability
wasting their lives i'm letting oppor-
tunity pass like flower floating on
the breast of the water until finally
they reach the place where there are
no more flowers and only the sand
bar of a wrecked and misspent life is
ahead.
il is the sight OF this sandbar that
usually makes people take up the
oars and try To get out of the way
of danger Just as long as there are
no distractions to the drifting they
remain content. but the sight of the
bar ahead arouses their sleeping en-
orgies. and. for time. they make
an attempt to right themselves.
Some people are like driftwoOd 1t

fair enough when it first started to

for fitful fires.
II you are drifting. pick up your
oars and pull up stream. There is
