Last Sunday the Morris team lost
to Benson at Benson. This was the
second time that these teams met
this year, Morris having won the first
game at Morris.
The game was fast and close with
both teams playing good ball until the
last of the 9Th inning when Yarger
who was on first for Morris was ran
into by the Benson left fielder and
had to be taken from the game. This
caused big change to be made in
the Morris line up and it was here
that the Benson team got their start
for up to this inning the score had
been one to nothing in favor Of Nor
ris. The final score was seven to one
in favor of Benson.

HThe Great UnknoWn,U

For thirteen years the author of
"Waverley" was unknown. Indeed, the
country spoke Of him as "the great
unknown" a pseudonym Sir Walter
Scott often employed in writing. But
On Feb, %, 1927, Sir Walter gave a
dinner party to which, among others,
Lord Meadowbank, the judicial mag
nate, who chanced to know his hosts
secret, was invited. Then when the
toasts were being drunk Meadowbank,
with Scott's permission, got up and
proposed the health Of "the great un-
known, Sir Walter Scott" The effect
was magical. and the news spread
through the country like wildfre. That
dinner and the secret it disclosed were
the most talked of events of the year.

Miss Mott on Dress.

DR.. Alice j. Mott. formerly normal
teacher here but now head of the
model school of the University of
Minnesota, said recently to the stu
dents, according to the Minneapolis
News: -
"Woman is a monomaniac on the
subject of clothes. 1t is perhaps the
ruling passion that characterizes the
sex and creates against her consider
able distrust on the part of the men.
The use of gaudy and extravagant
millinery, senseless hobble skirts
and the other ultra-modern creations
of ever busy fashion WELD a deter
rent effect on the movement for wo-
mans suffrage also. Women are
looked upon as not being capable of
welding sensible judgment in politi
cal affairs and partly because of their
excess in the matter of dress.
"Woman suffrage, however, would
be good thing. Not SO much that
woman would improve the ballot.
but the ballot would improve wo-
man.
"Man sails the seas, tunnels the
mountains, flies through the air and
conquers the wilderness, while wo-
man sits in her home in a state of
lethargy and wears the things that
her husband catches for her,
