The interscholastic debate between
the Lewiston normal and Cheney nor
NAL, which will be held Friday even
ing at Cheney, Washington, viii be
the eighth annual contest between
these normal schools. A great deal
of interest has been aroused in both
schools over the coming debate, es-
pecially in view of the fact that
Cheney has won four debates in the
past and Lewiston three. The last
debate held between Cheney and the
Lewiston normals, was that of two
years ago, which was won by the
Lewiston normal. The' team at that
time was one of three young women,
Misses Jensen, Walhahl and Sulli-
van. The team this year will be one
of young men, Messrs. Ransom A.
Mackie and Oscar R. Jordan of Jul
iaetta and Mr. Claude II. Lint of
Lewiston. The Cheney team is one Of
young women and consists of Misses
Chapman, Mueller and Cutler One
of the unique features of the debate
this year viii be the fact that the
three judges viii be taken from the
Cheney normal faculty. In these days
it often seems as if the object of
each school debating was to win
at any cost, but representatives of
the two normals have very wisely
put the debate solely on its merits
the Lewiston normal realizing that
its team will receive every courtesy

BY readily defeating the High School
basket ball team, which prior to that
time lead the league with a perfect
score in games, the Y. NJ. c. A. team
tied for the first place in the league
standing last night with the school
team and game evidence that it will
in all probability lead the league at
the close of the season. The score in
this game was Y NJ c. A. 80, High
School, 16. The game between the
Agricultural College and the Americas
Light Infantry teams was closer. re
sulting in victory for the former by
a score of IS to II.
AS the only other game that has
been played between the High School
and Y. M. c. A. team resulted in the
Y, N. c. 4. team forfaiting the game,
the game last night furnished the first
opportunity that has been afforded
Of judging the relative strength of the
two teams. If last nights performance
is to be taken as a criterion the Y. NJ.
c. A. team looks like champion GER
tainty, as they easily outclassed the
High School bunch, which has held
the front rank heretofore.
Games will will be played as reg
ularly as is convenient until the league
championship is decided.
A game between the local and Dawson
high school teams has been scheduled
for next Friday night here, while the
Y. NJ c. A. team will tackle Albany
here on Thanksgiving night and in
Albany for a return game the night
following.

MACON WAS A
PLEASING HOST
FOR The MASONS
TO RETAIN HEADQUARTERS
All District Deputies Have
Been Abolished

There is little danger Of the grand
lodge being moved from Macon" said
Mayor J. E. Mathis upon his return
from the recent session Of the Masonic
Grand Lodge in the Central City.
There was nothing that the dele
gates to the convention wanted that
they did not receive. The hospitality
Of the people of Macon was all that
any one could ask. In fact, one did
not have to ask for anything, for it
was literally thrust upon one Macon
walked up when the moving Of the
headquarters was mentioned
Such a spirit as this, Of course, can
not be downed when it comes to get
ting what they want, and Macon will
have little trouble in retaining the
headquarters of the grand lodge. A
committee was appointed to investi-
gate the advisability Of miving the
headquarters, it is true, but this will
hardly amount to more than mere
formality."
Though he was unable to be present
at the Macon meeting, Mr.. H. E. Allen
was again chosen second grand stew
ard, thus giving Americus worthy rec
ognition among the list of grand lodge
officers. Among other Americus Ma
sons who Were-in attendance upon the
grand lodge session in addition to May
or Mathis were Messrs. j. L. Blalock
Frank Oliver, Frank P. Mitchell and
A. G. Miller.
One Of the features of the c0nven-
tion was the adjustment Of the CON.
gressioLal districs deputy officers,
whose duty was to represent the grand
ledge in a general business way in
each congressional district. Mr.. L. J.
Blalock was the deputy from this con
gressional district. In the future the
duties that have been performed by the
officers of the grand lodge.
Every member of the Americus del
egation to Macon reports a most en-
joyable time spent in the Central City
where the hospitality of the Masons
'of that city and section was proven
bially pleasing and gratifying.

At Shops IN AMERICUS
More Men Are at Work and
On Full Time

The fact that the Americus Shops
of the seaboard Railway are again
working on full time, and with wo~k-
ing forces very considerably increased

continued prosperity of the railway
in general and of the local shops in
particular.
For the shops are regarded among
Americus very best industrial enter
prices, and whether affects them
likewise affects a number of people
here.
Recently the volume of work there
has increased to the extent of necessi-

past few days, and the shops are more
