The original Kaiser Wilhelm canal
was begun only 81 years ago and was
finished 10 years ago; nevertheless.
although it was supposed to have been
built large enough to accommodate the
ships of the future for long period Of
years, it was soon found that 1t must
be greatly enlarged to keep pace with
the increase in the size of the ships,
particularly those of the navy. The
locks of the old canal were I45 meters

ceded that girls, as compared with
boys, have little chance of c,lltivat-
ing q sportsmanlike spirit. In basket
ball girls must learn that which
boys can gain in their large variety
OF games. So the Hurley girls, de-
faated by score of .26t to 2, will re-
suille the practice with that same
idea u1le of enjoying the game, of CO.
Operating with the members of the

Ia first half of the boys game,
the Hurley team seemed equal I'd
their opponents, and for a time were
ahead in score. The fact that two
OF our most efficient players are out
.ofsthe game just now on account Of
injuries sustained in the football
game with Parker. will help solve
the mystery Of that score for those
who are thinking over last years

boys were a little ahead at close OF
first half. if the Hurley boys had
come back with the same endurance
exhibited in first. the final outcome
would have been doubtful. Suffice
