WON II GAMES
DURING SEASON


Manager "Bfll" Boughton's crew
of high school basketball players
have vcl0sed one Of the most success
tful seasons yet had at the local
school. The crimson and white boys
won eleven out Of thirteen games,
losing to Red Bank and Rutgers
Sophomores.
The splendid work done by the
whole team is something which was
wholly unexpected. with the excep-
ton of Captain Bones Browning.
this year was the first basketball sea-
son TO the whole. squad. The play
ers were beginning to execute team
plays and showed considerable class
In handling the ball. The last few
games in which the regular lineup
played, the team played exception
ally clever, thus accounting for the
large scores. Despite the fact that
the team c~aptained by j.. Scott Burns
of last season was better than the
present crimson and white quintet,
the New Brunswick high school
team was beaten nearly by the same
margin inetheir games on the Audi
forum court. The New Brunswick
game was the last one played. The
local team, rolled up three hundred
and twenty-six points against their
opponents one hundred and ninety
two In the whole season. Wood
bridge as we'll as New Brunswick
fell before the crimson and white
quintet 1.-The games with Wood
bridge were the best and most in
teresting of all. Two games were
played which were won by one and
two points respectively. The third
one was a cinch for the locals,
Bones Browning should be
given much praise for his great work
as d forward and captain of the
team. Bones" work was much
more than what an ordinary captain
was subjected to. Not only did he
have to develop men in one particu-
lar respect, but his work consisted
In training the whole team in all
respects. The team was green; the
boys did not even have substitute
positions on last seasons team and
had never handled a basketball be-
fore. Bones" also showed great
speed and besides doing most OF the
shooting. played cieverly on ths

CHANGES THAT COUNT.

Rearrangement Of Tunio viii Trans
form Your Froek.
Frocks may be altered and made to
look entirely different by the rearrange-
ment and changing about Of the tunic.
For instance, II one has a well fitting
white satin frock one may vary the
tunic worn over 1t and variety Of ef-
fects may be obtained. A little altera-
ton or difference In the arrangement
Of shades worn with a frock gives an
air of novelty and interest, yet It does
not seem to occur to some women what
variety can be obtained by little
changes here and there. No woman
should scorn such details, and in her
desire to look her best she can easily
get into the habit Of critically examin-
ing herself and her clothes.
A tall, slim figure can, Of course
stand practically any arrangement Of
this ubiquitous overdress, but the short
or stout woman in this as in many
other details of her toilet has to be
most careful that no hard line which
may detract in any way from her
height or any undue fulness should be
worn. All lines should sweep down.

THE SEWING ROOM.

Buy linen birdseye toweling by the
piece and mako from this either eight
towels with hemstitched ends or nine
with scalloped ends. OF course the
handwork ON the towels adds to their
beauty and value, and these could not
be bought for less than 81 each. Those
with scalloped ends could have single
eyelets or groups Of them In each seal
lop. The initial can be surrounded
with tho eyelets. Those with hem
stitched hens should have the simple
initial.
Pillow covers Of scrim are service
able, easy to make and can DO made
beautiful. Buy plain ecru scrim for
the pillows back and for the front
ribbon scrim with a colored border.
two strips, ono for each side Of the
pillow, with a strip Of plain scrim for
tho center. This is to be embroidered
with q conventional design in mercer
lied cotton or brightly colored wool
yarns. A nat hem border Of the color
Cd ribbon scrim Is sewed all the way
around the pillow.
Don't wait for the threads to break
through when thin places occur in I'M
derwear. AS soon as the place shows
thinness stretch on an embroidery
hoop and work from the right side.
For thick wear saxony wool having a
slight twist is best; for cotton, darn
ing cotton that comes on small cards
is good. Begin outside the thin place
and run" the line Of stitches, as in
mending stockings, cutting the thread
every time at the end to avoid loop.
The ends will sink or be pulled into
the material and will not show on the
right side. Be sure to set the first
stitches IN each line well outside Of
the thin place.

DICK AND THE GIANT.
4 MoraI-Be Kind to tho Helpless
Little Bird.

Dear little Dick! What a gay crea-
ture he was! He used to 60 singing
about nearly all day, for he was al
ways merry. One day Dick went or to
take ramble in large forest at some
distance from home. He had often
been on the edge of the forest, but 1t
looked so dark that he was afraid to
enter. But Dick was more merry than
usual on this day, for the sun shone SO
brightly and the flowers looked so love-
~ that he sang and whistled till the
woods rang with his music.
There was clear brook running
through the woods. and Dick stopped
down to drink of its refreshing waters,
when, 10, he was seized suddenly from
behind and found himself in the hands
of fierce, ugly looking giant.
The poor little captive tried hard to
get away, but the giant held him tight
until he reached his home, and Dick
shivered when he saw the huge struc-
ture. with no trees nor flowers near 1t,
Dick wondered whether the giant
was going to kill him. but before he
had time for further thought he was
thrust into prison-like room, barred
on all sides to prevent his getting out.
Dick grew sadder and lonelier as he
thought of his own pretty home, his
companions. the sunlight, the trees and
the good things he had to eat
One day the giant came, and, poking
stick into Dicks prison, he cried:
"Sing, sing, singv' But poor Dick
was too sad to sing. The giant grew
furious, and, grabbing Dick in his
enormous hand, he squeezed the life
out Of little Dick
Dick was bird, and the giant was

ComioaI Sentences.

Any number Of persons may sit In a
circle and make comical sentence by
each furnishing one part of speech.
Let one begin by whispering to his
neighbor on the left an article; the lat
ter whispers to his left hand neighbor
an adjective, and then in turn the
others whisper in like manner a noun
singular, Q verb, a number; an. adjec-
tive and noun plural. Each in order
then tells the word given him, and a
sentence is thus formed-for instance,
'..The solemn grasshopper ate gleefully
forty-three Infatuated Holsters

EXPOSING THE GHOST
BY PERcIvAL S. PRINCE

John Ellison slowly descended from
the carriage and turned toward the
house. He walked slowly and with
the bearing of man utterly detected.
Nettie, watching him from the veran-
da, dropped her work and ran toward
him.
"Was It any better todayT she
asked anxiously. Her father shook his
head.
"The day force went out when they
came to work." he said. 1.-THE night
force stopped work about 2 o'clock
this morning"
Don't you think that Ted could
help?" she pleaded. "He knows the
men so WELL"

have him about the works again." said
the old man bitterly. Have you
broken your pledge?"
Il have not seen him since that
night" she declared, "but I do think
he could do you 30 much good, father"
Ellison pushed her aside with gentle
roughness and passed on up the walk.
Nettie looked after him for a moment,
then, with sigh, followed the bowed
figure into the house.
When the big contract had come
there had been much jubilation. 1t
was not alone that the completion of
th, contract meant large sum OF
money; it was, the work that the sue.
cessful termination of this job would
bring.
Then Ted Raymond, head drafts
man in the pattern room, had asked
for Nettie's hand and had been re
fused her fathers consent. He had
been dismissed, and since then every
thing had seemed to go wrong.
There had been a strike Of the work

Girls DANCING Dresses.

Chiffon in almost all instances Is the
favored material for dancing dresses.
Solid colors as well as printed floral
designs are used In developing dresses
In this material The foundations are
Of satin, in self or harmonizing colors,
and the chiffon is invariably arranged
in tunic form. The peasant sleeve is
used in dresses Of this type, although
the set-in sleeve, giving the peasant
sleeve effect, Is also used. Many of
tho dresses have the sleeves made in
one with the waist, with the trimming
so arranged that the severity Of the
shoulder line is relieved. Bead trim
mings as well as metal effects are used
largely for this purpose. Fringes Of
beads are used to quite an extent and
make a pretty finish for the foot Of
the TUNES.

Within few miles of Delhi, the new
capital Of India, are scattered tho
ruins Of several former capitals. the
first of which Is supposed to date from
the fifteenth century before Christ and
was founded by the Aryan colonists.
It's existence continued till the nrst
century before Christ, after which sew
eral cities rose and fell near the pres
emit site until Mohammed Of Char e.
tabllshed Delhi as the capital Of the
Mohammedan empire Of India IN 1893.
It remained the capital Of successive
dynasties until 1903, when It was cap
tured by the British and made q center
of British rule. Il was the center Of
the mutiny Of 1857 and was recaptured
by the British after q memorable
siege. 1t has the advantage over Cal

Raymond always had a good infiu-

tain that he would be able to adjust
matters, but she had given her pledge
not even to speak to him, and she
could not urge him to take up the
work. 49,

The Sailors e.ssy Trousers.

Perhaps you have wondered why
sailors wear baggy trousers, wide at
the bottoms. Even boys sometimes
wear the same baggy uniform.
The reason the sailors trousers are
made this way is that they have to do
so much work on sloppy decks and
throw so much water around that they
always take or their shoes and roll up
their trousers. II It were not for the
width of these trousers this would be
impossible, as you will find II you try
to roll an ordinary pair Of trousers up

trousers up and down again without
