An Early Spring

Sunday was ground hog day
and unless signs fail we will
have an early spring this year.
On the End day of February this
little animal is supposed TO have
ventured forth from his winter
quarters to take peek at the
weather and':providing he failed
to see his shadow he would re-
main out for this is a sign of an
early spring. So far as this 10.
cality is concerned the ground
hog would have been unable to
see his shadow on Sunday but it
has been mighty cold since that
time and we are afraid Mr..
Grounding has either decided
to go back into his winter quar-
tiers or has frozen to death.

Lent Now On

The Lenten Season began yester-
day and will end with Easter Sun
day which falls on March 23rd this
year.
The CELEBRATION of EASIER ln1 ia,
observance of Lenten fast before it,
dates back to the days of the
Apostles.
In the earliest years of the Church
the Lenten fast was purely devo-
tional, without any suggestion of
that discipline which is now the
central idea of it. 1t was shorter,
too, in duration, beginning Good
Friday afternoon and ending Eas
ter morning, forty hours. It's pur-
pose was reverent commemoration
of the sacrifice and death of Christ.
1t was to keep fresh in their own
hearts and perpetuate in the hearts
of their children. their sorrow fol-
the sin which caused Christ's death
and a thankful recognition of the
benefits flowing from His sacrifice or
the cross. This was the age of the
prosecutions, when faith was strong
and spiritual fervor deep; when
those who joined the Church did sc
at the risk of their life, and none
joined but such as were sincerity in
earnest. ~

feet in length six and on half let
in diameter and the lumber cut
from it scaled 2460 feet mill scale.

December.

Nobody is worried nowadays blythe
fact that the twelfth month of the
year Is called the tenth. December"
says q writer. land no doubt even the
ancient Romans soon got used to the
anomaly when the new year was shift
ed back from March to January. though
the old names of the months were re-
tanned. But there was one Of them
who made ingenious use Of it-Licinius,
a rascally procurator at Lyons under
Augustus. He insisted on having GER
tain monthly payments made fourteen
times year, arguing, when December
came round, that as 1t was the tenth
month Of the year and there ought to
be twelve there must be two more to
be accounted for"

Fed Ihem on Stale News.

In the British arctic expedition OF
1875 one of the chaplains had file OF
the London Times twenty years old,
containing the Crimean war reports.
One copy was given out to each ship
daily. The officers had it first. then 1t
went to the forecastle, and soon every
one was as keen about the news as If
the war had been proceeding. The
clergyman in control Of the press was
besought to issue an evening edition.
and when Sebastopol was about to be
taken excitement ran so high that the
newspaper office-a locker-was almost
stormed. The editor, however, was
firm and continued with his daily is.

end of the expedition.

WaShburn and Ashland H. S.
Teams Each Win Game
Two Very Interesting Games
Played at the Opera House
Saturday Night.

The Washburn and Ashland High
School basket ball teams divided
honors in two well played games at
the Opera House in this city Saturday
night, the Washburn girls winning
one game and the Ashland boys the
other,
The first game played was between
the girls teams of the two schools
and was about as interesting a con-
test as has ever been played in this
city: Two ten minute halves were
played, the Washburn girls winning
out by the narrow margin of S to 8.
The teams were about evenly matched
which made the game very interesting.
The second game was between the
the boys teams of the two schools
and this was the best game that has
ever been played here. Ashland s
team was considerable heavier but
the Washburn team showed greater
speed. Two twenty minute halves
were play ed, the first half ending
with the score tie, Is to 10. Dur
ing the second half the weight of the
Ashland team began to tell on the
Washburn team, but nevertheless they
played an excellent game. Ashland
won by score of "a to Is.
About three hundred people wit
messed the contests and all pronounced
them the best ever seen in the city.
A large number from Ashland came
over to witness the games.

The Orange Tree.

The orange is the longest lived fruit
tree. 1t begins to bear the third year
after budding. and for 100 years it will
yield abundant crops. Orange trees
have been known to attain the ripe age
Of 300 years. The orange requires less
care and attention than any other fruit
tree. It's early growth is rapid. In the
irst two years it grows more than 1t
will in the next fifty. This refers, OF
course. to its height and breadth alone
Its fruit stems and consequently its
crops Increase more rapidly after the
first ten years.
