Clarence Dryer returned from his
Detroit visit last Tuesday. Mr.. Dryer
has been at Detroit since before the
holidays. His trip has not been wholly
one of pleasure Tor during his absence
he has been attending TO law business
for his firm. Moriarty a Dryer. One
of the FIRST cases started In Judge

this firm. Mr.. Dwyer was in Mr..

halt the teachers had cut down the
lead 10 one point, and we're on the
small END of a 20-l9 score, Then

tired ont and did little but stand a.
round for the remainder OF the game.
The high school boys broke loose with
a SHOVE OF baskets. and won but 10

week was the game with Iron River
last night. an account Of which will be-
given next week.
Our high school won its first game
OF the season last Friday night when Ii
defeated Vulcan. 3D.. The game was
satisfactory and disappointing at the
same time. II Is said that the team
work was the best seen on the local
floor since the time of the famous tsam
of ig07-190S, but the score wasn't-so
large as had been hoped tor. This was
partly due to the fact that Vulcan
played an entirely defensive game. and
kept most of their men down hy our
baskets. The visitors made their live
points on fouls. They played a clean,
plucky game and in time should be-
come a fast team. The game was
splendidly run by the principal of the
Vulcan school. acting as referee. and
by Charlie Richard. who oficiated as
umpire. The Crystal Falls team lined
u? as follows: Notes. right forward
Soderman. Capt. left forward Elmer
Carlson. center A. Flood. right guard {;

Next week is the fatetul examination
week and the students are hard at work
on their reviews in preparation for the
test. While examinations are an inn
portant part of n school work, yet
they do not occupy the prominence that
a good many people perhaps think they
do. Usually the examinations only
count one-third. while the daily work
counts two-thirds in the determining
OF the average mark Of the semester.
The passing marks is so per cent and
thus a student whose daily work has
averaged 80 per cent might go as low
~ so per cent on the examination and
still pass the course. Students are pre-
pared for the examinations, which are
calculated 70 be eminently fair, and
for the conscientious student OF aver
mediocre ability examinations need
have no terror.
There have been two events in the
athletic activities OF the week worth
recording. The FIRST occurred Wednes
day evening when the men of the fac.
ulty played the high school basket ball
team in the gymnasium. AT the end
OF the first half the students had the

WHY TT PAYS TO
BUY ADVERTISED GOODS.

Because the advertiser has
done something to inspire con-
fidence.
He has not only explained the
value and usefulness Of his
product, but has put his person.
ality and reputation behind his
statements.
He can be trusted because his
very business existence is at
stake.
He believes in his goods to tho
extent Of investing his capital,
not only In making the goods
right, but In advertising, which
will not prove permanently
profitable II he fails to make
good--secure repeat orders. 81.
The advertising Is not only a
protection to the trade name, but
It is the advertisers guarantee
of quality.
You are justified In being sus-
picious of unadvertised goods.
because, however much conf
dence the dealer or manufac-
turer may have in them. he has
not enough faith In them to
spend money in telling others OF
their goodness.
It always pays to buy adver-
tised goods.
