Playing whirlwind basketball, the
Catholic University and George Wash.
ington quints battled forty minutes last
night in the National Guard gymnasium
and when the final whistle blew, the
Brooklanders were leading, 25 to g.
The game was hard fought through
out, although the Brooklanders were
never behind. At the end OF the first
half the score stood 16 to 10, but when
the festivities started again, the Bun
and Blue five made a desperate stab at
the long end of the score.
Tracy's sensational work was again
the c. u. feature, as this lad was the
mainstay of the Brookland quint. The
work of Keegan and Donnelly was also
of a high order, the latter covering
Noonan well.
Almon played another swell game for
the Bun and Blue, scoring seventeen Of
the twenty-three points made by the
the George Washington five. Almon
Gagged nine goals from fouls out OF ten
attempts.

BY far the best defensive work of the
evening was done by Jack Hurley,
George washington's plucky guard. Hur-
ley kept Tracy on the jump throughout
the contest, the speedy Brooklanders
scoring but three goals from the hoor.
Patterson also played a good defensive
game for Coach Schlosser's aggregation.

Farewell little time, and we
Who knew thee well and loved thee
here
One after one, shall follow thee,
As pilgrims through the gate of fear
Which opens on eternity.
I Yet shall we cherish not the less
All that is left our hearts, meanwhile
The memory of thy loveliness
snail round our weary pathway smile.
/. Like moonlight, when the sun is set,
A sweet and tender radiance yet,
Thoughts of thy clear-eyed sense of
duty
The generous scorn of all things wrong,
The truth, the strength, the graceful
beauty
Which blended in thy song,
All lovely things by thee beloved
Shall whisper TO our hearts of thee,
. There green hills where thy childhood
roved,
9on river, winding TO the sea,
The sunset light OF autumn ewes,
Rejecting on the deep, still floods,
Clouds, cTimon sky and trembling
leaves
OF rainbow tinted woods,
These, in our view, shall henceforth
take
A tender meaning for thy sake,
And all thou lowest of earth and sky
Seem precious to thy memory

OUR JEWELS
How oft some priceless jewel
God takes TO shine in heaven.
To us IL may seem cruel
To take what He has given,
Bat when the day Of crowning
Shall come TO all who're good,
Well find these gems adorning
Our crowns, bestowed OF God.
There we shall sing forever
Salvation's sweetest song,
When death no more can sever
These ties which are so strong.
Then let us trust Gods mercy,
When friends from us are riven,
Until is solved life's mystery
In the clearer light OF heaven,
Dedicated 10 Mr.. Warren Keith and
family by Rev. II. Pearl Briggs.

A Parcel Post-Express Puzzle.

A few days since the Democrat re-
ceived from an advertising concern two
electrotypes. These were sent at the
same time, but in separate packages,
separately billed. They were shipped
by American Express, and delivered at
the Democrat office by Canadian Ex-
press. Both prepaid. Among the num-
erous marks on the packages was snail
rate" written in ink on each.
On the yellow tag of one OF them was
filled in express charges prepaid 10.
To whom paid Am "" This package
weic he'd less than a pound. The Office
of shipment is in the fourth zone from
South Paris, and the parcel post rate on
this package would have been cents.
The other package was marked the
same, except that the figures were 10.
This package weighed a little over a
pound, and the parcel post charge would
have been IA cents. The two packages
together weighed less than two pounds,
and could have been mailed as one pack
age for IA cents.
As any one who has had at least sixty
DAYS experience in the newspaper bust
ness knows, the advertising department
of proprietary medicine concern is not
in the habit of giving-to the newspapers
at least-any higher rate than the lowest
it Is possible to secure. Indeed, in its
dealings with the newspapers it will gen.
orally exhaust the resources OF business
diplomacy to save a very little on the
price.
Puzzle, then: Did this concern,
which sends out large numbers of cleo
trotypes, pay the express companies 81
cents for carrying what the mail would
have carried for IA? Aud IL 80, was the
express office so much more conveniently
situated than a postal station that the
difference was worth the extra II cents?
Or what?
