W. C. T. U. NOTES.
tffttt 4 f+tt

Our last meeting was led by Mr.. Yea
ger state secretary of theC.E. His talk was
very helpful and to the point. He gave
some items on prohibition in the south
and said the reason the sonth was taking
the lead was that there were 80 per
cent more Christians there than any
where else. and that the church stood be-
hind the temperance movement and that
Atlanta. Ga. is the largest dry city in the
world and vice and crime had decreased
and there was prosperity on every hand.
Again he said we needed to convert
the Christian first; that they were not
setting good example before the nom
christians and were in a large measure
responsible for keeping people out of the
church. Mr.. Long also made plea for
prohibition and said he could not see how
any one calling themselves christians
could vote for anything but state wide
prohibition and rid the land of the curse
that made SO much misery and filled up
our jails and penitentiary. Our next
meeting will be with Mrs. A. L. Kellogg
Jan, 26.

BASKET BALL
Newsy Notes by Our Sport
ing Editor
o ~ G. - o 1 ~ q o q g. q ,

Last week was the most exciting along
the line of athletics that Rocky Ford has
known for nearly year-the result of
the basket ball games.
The high school teams were scheduled
to play the La Junta girls and Las AMI
mas boys an Friday night. but because
failed to arrive and the Progressive Club
team was enlisted to take their place in
the double-header advertised.
The girls game ended with score of
81 to in favor OF La Junta, but defeat
was to be expected. as it was the first
game for our girls. while La Junta has
had girls team for several years and
came close to the championship last year.
Although La Junta was perha ps more ex-
perienoed and handled the ball better they
could not show more pluck and sports
manship than our girls.
The boys game with the club was un-
doubtedy the fastest ever played on the
home floor. 1t was a whirlwind from
start to finish and kept the spectators
wondering who would win until the last
whistle blew. so evenly were the teams
matched. The score was IL to is ir
favor of the club.
Saturday night the school won its first
league game of the season by defeating
Las Animas 48 TO 10. Our boys started
the game in their usual whirlwind style
and had a ball in the basket in less than
a half minute. The first half ended with
out Las Animas getting a field goal. but
they picked up little in the latter par'
r Il. 81 a. GzIz i L.
Although inexperienced IN the game
Las Animes played pluokily all the time
and never gave up. They have materia
for good team and play as clean and
manly game as any team we have ey.
seen. They are the kind of boys who
make high school athletics so desirable
