Grants Pass
Meets Defeat

Ashland high has reason to crow
now, as defeat overwhelming met the
Grants Pass team Saturday after
noon when they were beaten S4 to 0.
The game was a walkaway, Grants
Pass having the pleasure of playing
the second team before the day was
over.
The game started off with great
vigor, and Ashlanders were a little
anxious as to what the result would
be- Their fears soon passed away,
however, for in the first quarter four
touchdowns and two goals were
gained. This rather took the pep"
out of the Gratns Pass fellows, but
they kept going with hardy pluck.
Things went on in this overwhelming
manner until at the end of the first
half the score was 81 to 0. The
Grants Pass boys were hammered
down the field remorselessly, for
nothing could stop the determined
Ashland fellows. One of the greatest
acquisitions on the Ashland team last
week was Howard Mayfield, who was
a star second baseman on the Central
Point team heretofore. He is now
living with his parents in Ashland,
and is attending the Ashland high
school as a junior. His weight, agil-
ity at handling the ball and wonder
full ability as a lineman were valu-
prove a great pillar of the team later,
when games with other strong teams
are played.
Lilly had the distinction of making
the first touchdown after one and
one-half minutes of play, and gained
several more before the day was
over. Gravy was there with the
goods also, and of course Captain
Spencer was the old standby. The
game was especially clean, no dirty
plays being evident. 1t has alway'
been the reputation of both the
Grants Pass and Ashland teams t.
play clean.
Though the rain fell in torrent
during the game and previously
there was a fair crowd present, man,
carloads of Medford high-schooler
coming up to watch the performanc
of the men they are soon to meet.
During the second half Coacl
Klum put in many of the subs unit
their opponents were practically play
ing the second team, who SCENE,
equally successful in driving tn
Grants Pass boys backward. Durini
the last of the game. instead of play
ing the offensive, as our boys gener
ally do, they practiced on the oppos
ing team in regard to defensiv
methods.
The score of the afternoon. 81 t
0, is certainly good starter for tn
season.

BANKUTU CANNIBALS.

Cannot Be Subdued
The cannibal Bankutus of Belgian
kongo make practice of removing
the upper incisors. Their dress con-
sists of a plated skirt, which does not
quite meet on the right thigh But the
women of the south wear hide girdle
with a deep fringe Of palm fiber string.
Among this tribe the slaves are COM
PEELED to wear special dress, which
is, in fact, the ordinary costume of
the Akela, to which tribe most of them
belong. The Bankutus are great canni-
balls as far as the male members Of
the tribe are concerned, and the vic
tins are always slaves. In fact, all
slaves are ultimately eaten, since it is
believed that if slave were buried
his ghost would kill his master.
Their chief weapon is the bow, poison
being used on the arrows. Shields are
now obsolete. One of their most inter
esting points is their use of conven-
tional throwing knife as currency. The
Bankutus are almost the only tribe of
this region who have been successful
in resisting the advance of the white
man. This fact is due TO their skill in
forest warfare. The way leading to
their village is defended by poisoned
spikes hidden by leaves. They use
bows and arrows set like traps in the
form of primitive spring guns and are
quite ready If white man is expected
to bait such traps with live baby,
being sure that the European will be
unable to resist the temptation to pick
up an apparently abandoned child. The
poison they use is absolutely deadly.

Kills RattleSnake
With His New Gun

While playing on the back porch
of his parents home in the Robert
son district of Grants Pass a few
days ago, Paul Allen, nine years OF
age, found a rattlesnake, which he
shot and killed with his new gun, ac-
cording to the Courier. The snake
had five rattles. Paul is justly proud
of his use of the gun.

Referring to the Consolidated High

plan, as operated at Webster, places
in a country. district a high school
that is first class in quality, and
to be a plan that brings a good
school as near the country boys and
girls as possible. 1t furnishes an OPP
p%ortunity for the boy to study the sci

and to make the application Of that
science on his fathers farm. SINH
larly, the girl may study domestic
science and art in the high school
and practice them at the same time
in the home. BY this plan the young
people have the daily companionship
of their fathers and mothers; they
are kept in the best moral and spir-
itual atmosphere; they have an op-
p%ortunity to secure a high school ed
ucation as good as the best, and all
of this is secured at the least pos.

Istudies in the laboratory, the troubl

to various parts of the room. Th'
paths of the light reflections wer,

General Russeky's forces is still to
be heard from, 1T is estimated that
the Austrian forces have lost one
third Of their available personnel and
two1thirds Of their artillery. 1t is
evident that the Russian generals
now hope to bottle up the Austrian
and their German contingents in
Przemsl, which is an Austrian Metz.
No hope is expressed for the early
capture of this fortress but it is ex-
pected that the remnants Of the Aus
tro.Hungarian forces will be kept
within it's walls until the end Of the
war. ,ts.e9s8

SELDOM IS TRUE REFLECTION
Person We See Depends on What
Mirror We Look Into, and Not
All Are Complimentary.

Here said Mrs. Spastick, lis
something that l have always said
myself and now it is in the newspa-
per! One seldom sees ones true
reflection In q mirror!'
Nov there Is a real optimist!" OBJ
served Swastick. Il have always want
ed to think that! Every time l have
looked at myself in a mirror during
all these years of shaving and part
ing my golden locks and trying on new
hats and suits, l have had a sad, wist-
full feeling on beholding my image.
I never knew what l sighed for!
"All this time I have been worrying
about the forbidding scowl that haunts
my features through no %connivance
on my part, about the scared lock of
my ears and the Ulsterish disposition
of my topknot.
Nov, it was not Apollo-like beauty
that l craved; it was only the COM
forting knowledge that I didn't really
look like my reflection in the glass;
"One does not look the same In all
mirrors" said Mrs. Swastick thought
fully. There are some glasses that
make a person look beautiful. l would
like to think that they are somewhere
near right, anyway
WELL" said Swastick, Il never saw
a mirror that flattered me as much
as others knock me. There is a mir
ror in the elevator that gives me a
rather refined look, but most of them
mock me in a very rude and impo.
lite manner, caricature me and bur-
lesque me-.
Under this horrid arrangement
should think that ladies' dressing for
a ball would all want to 60 owe to
the ballroom to dress by the ballroom
mirrors, so they could know exact
ly how they were going to look at the
ball. .
1t, seems a shame for a woman to
dress by her home mirror, only to
find when she gets to the ballroom
that she looks entirely different"
But" contended Mrs. Swastick, 1T
isn't how she will look to herself in
the ballroom mirror that bothers her.
1t is how she will look to the rest
of the people at the ball. But if a
woman can't tell how she looks to
other people by looking at herself in
a mirror, how is she ever going to
know? 1t is very unsatisfactory fol
a woman never to be able to know ex'
actly how she looks" }.o. i

know the worst" murmured Swastick

LEGAL BAN ON SPITE FENCES
California Newspaper Welcomes Court
Decision on Subject Which Inter
ests Many Communities. sa

The new state law against the vi
cious system of spite fences was up.
held by a San Francisco court, and If
this decision Is. affirmed in the SUI
preme court we shall see the elimina-
ton of these structures, says the Sac
ramento Union. 7q'+
In the case under consideration a
certain rich man, who had built his
home on the summit of Russian hill,
commanding a view Of the bay, OBJ
jected to the fact that flats had been
constructed so that they overlooked
his residence.
He demanded that the top story of
the building be cut off, and when this
was refused he erected a great wall
which cut off not only the view of the
bay, which was one Of the chief at
fractions of the building, but also de-
prived the residents Of light and air.
The court has ordered the fence cut
down to ten feet. -.
This decision is in the interests of
fair play cad common While
no one will deny to property owners
the right to make the best possible use
Of their property, with due regard for
the rights Of other. people, yet when
ownership. is used to the intentional
detriment Of others it Is a menace to
the public.
The spite fence is simply the visible
evidence of bad temper. Because we
own property we have no right to de-
prive other. Of free air and light. The
erection of a legitimate building which
cuts off the light Of others is one
thing, but the construction of a hideous
obstruction for the specific purpose
Of injuring another is a radically diff
ferent thing. 1t cannot be defended.
Let us hope that the new law will be
upheld in the higher courts and that
we shall have an end Of these physical
evidences of Miniature for a disor
dered digestion.

Warfare Costly to Life.

Londcn, Sept. 15.-The Paris cor.
respondent of the Daily Mail, explain

The reward of praise must be
chiefly Joffre's. 1t was not always
kindly tnat the name Of Joffre was
mentioned during the retreat from
the frontier, though the chorus of
praise now would make one think
that confidence had never swavered.
He has had the courage to. expose
himself to the danger OF contempt
aid the custom Of his country to re-
alize, his plan Tor final victory. Gen
eral Jeffre recently said:
"'There are two methods of max
ing war, one TO, employ troops in
masses and the other to fight in ex.
tended order. The former is the,
German method. It, is Immensely
costly III life, but they a afford it
Tor two reasons, the immense superb
GRITTY in numbers and the fact their
men are disciplined to mechanical
obedience that they fight best when
closely held together under the per
/ sonal command of their officers.

way, the French soldier does not fight

impatient under constant command
Of mechanical discipline
Zone thing is certain. In the open
country | cannot meet troops in a
mass and Of greatly superior num-
bers with extended troops. To have
the best chance, for success I must
fight in such a position that the bat
tlefleld is limited to strong fortresses
which will support the extended lines
Of the French and by limiting the
front will hamper the movements of
the Germans

tired to the narrowest part of France
between Paris and Verdun. The sue

RepairIna Fractured Hearts.

T%hirty-one patients in a Russian
hospital have recovered from stab
wounds of the heart!
Doctor Zlidler says the patients were
put under the influence Of ether very
soon after the injury, part of the
chest wall a removed. the heart
lifted from its bed and the stitches
quickly introduced between pulsa.
lions. The bony chest wall over the
heart was not put back in place, that
organ being left covered only by skin
and muscle. This was done to give
the heart room to expand and to pre-
vent adhesions from embarrassing the
hearts action. Several of the, patients
have resumed their usual employment.
The probable reason for the success
OF the experiment was prompt and
rapid operation.
