SPORTING NOTES.

Before a small crowd, the last
basket ball game of the season was
played at the Rink on Tuesday night.
The two teams were supposed to be
the Rink Five VS.. the All Stars, but
neither team knew who was going
to play with them, until just before
the whistle blew. The Rink Five
missed the services of McDermott
and Capt. Bader, their two star
guards, very much, and substituted
two of the G. c. team, Hessling and
Welsh, both of whom played good
games.
The game did not seem to have
much life and at times neither team
seemed to care who won.
The All Stars were composed of
three Alerts, one G. c. club man and
one Co. E. The first half ended to
6 and the final score was 16 to II
in favor of the "All Stars" Lineup

Vincent Carroll a member of the
agriculture class, explained the
method of testing seeds to a repre-
sentative of The Citizen. Prof. H. A.
Oday secured some oats and Vincent
explained the process to us as fol-
lows:
In order to test the vitality of
these oats we planted them in a
seed-tester, planting three squares
of them, ten in a square. After al
lowing them seven days to germinate
found that they had all germinat-
ed, developing sprouts and roots of
about one and half inches in length
AS they had all sprouted in the
three squares, We had a sprouting
average OF one hundred per cent.
The other fellows did not have as
good an average as ours but averag-
ing together the total result was
"a 1-3 per cent. This is the ger
minating average"
The class desires to make tests
for other persons. Farmers or local
parties who would like to know the
terminating average of their seed
can send the seed to the school
house in care of the agricultural
class, Honesdale, and after the tests
have been made the average will be
forwarded. 1t takes a week to make
a test.
