MOSS HERO OF GAME.

Holy Cross basketball five won the
Preparatory School League champion
ship yesterday at Manual Training
School court when it defeated the Man
ual boys by the score of - to II in one
of the best games ever played on the
Manual Court. The game was the de-
Gliding one for the Vittur cup, and q
large crowd witnessed the contest which
was hummer from start to finish.
The hero of yesterdays game was lit
tie Creighton Moss, who tied the score
and few minutes later won the game
for his schoolmates by his nifty field
goal. Moss has been playing a great
game all through the season, and yes
terday he won congratulations from all
who witnessed the game.
The game. until the second half stood
to 2, in favor of the Manual boys.
Strange to state, this was the same
score when Holy Cross and Manual met
the last time. The beginning of the
second half Manual began to score
more field goals, and up to the last six
minutes of play the score stood to to
10, in Manuals favor and then Moss
tied the score with his field goal When
time was up for the last half it was de-
cded that they would play until the first
field goal was thrown, and it was not
long before Creighton Moss made the
winning point.--N. O. Picayune, Mar IL.

HOW TO BEAT THEM AT THEIR
OWN GAME.

It Is all right to have honest goods On
the shelves for people to buy but they
mr.. likely to remain there unless people
are informed that you have the goods
That can best be done by advertising IN
your local paper. One principal way by
which mail order houses often get the
better of home merchants is through the
medium of large illustrated catalogues,
that find their way into almost every
home two or three times year. 1t costs
a small fortune to print and mail these
catalogues, but the fact that they exist
is the surest proof that It pays to have
them.
OF course, no local merchant can al
ford to get out such q catalogue, nor IS
II necessary. He can secure the same
results in his home paper, but to do II
h. must advertise generously and at
4ractively, and then make good IN the
quality and price of his goods. In 50
doing he can beat the mail order houses
at their own game.
To be sure there are in every commun-
;tv people who will always buy OF .
mail order house even if they get fooled
bv so doing, as many do, because 1t IS
. mania with them. But the great ma
ority of buyers would rather trade Al
home if assured they can get what they
want. and it is up to the local business
men to to meet that want.

Count ton Bernstorff, the German am.

day. where he conferred for half an
hour with Secretary Bryan. aroused
speculation in diplomatic circles on
the possibility that another effort is

1t is known that the diplomat made
special trip from New York In re-

by Bryan.
He left the secretary burdened with
copies OF peace commission treaties
negotiated by Bryan, and is under
stood to have been asked to forward
these to Berlin.

that Secretary Bryan should under.

been forced to abandon everything.
