Auto Drivers Must Be Is.

Parents OF guardians in WATERFOWL
or vicinity who allow their children
to run automobiles are taking long
chances, and the police should put a
peremptory stop to this practice. The
state law provides that only persons
more than 16 years of age shall be
state. Several small boys who have
been accustomed to driving their faith
er's automobiles will be affected by
the law and there are several cases in
Watertown.
Every driver at some time or an
other finds himself in a tight pinch,
and children are not capable of using
their heads at such times.

CHINA'S HEAD WORKSHOPS.
kneeIs Before Altar Of Heaven-An-
Gent Manchu Rite.

President Yuan Shih Kai appeared
before the alter OF heaven in Picking
and revived the worship of heaven mt
the winter sostice an observance neg
lected since the passing OF the Manchu
dynasty In 1911. In this the president
OF the republic took upon himself a
function and rite which in the past al
ways has been reserved to the emperor
of China in his capacity of Tien Tsz.
or Son OF Heaven.
The president worshiped at the ia
nous circular altar the most impor-
tant OF all Chinese religious structures.
1t Is located in a sacred park three
miles from the palace OF the emperors
and is surrounded by sacred buildings
This altar formerly was regarded In
China as the center OF the universe.
Yuan Shih Kai submitted a bill 10
the Chinese administrative council last
January prescribing the worship OF
heaven and Of Confucius for the presi-
dent Of China. and the measure was
passed by the council This act was
regarded us tantamount TO establish
ing a state religion for China. Dur
Ing the deliberations Of the council il
was set forth that the president OF
the republic should worship at the
Temple of Confucius and ut the tenn
pie Of heaven annually. as had been
the custom of the Chinese emperor.
The worshipng Of the president before
the altar Of heaven appears TO be
carrying out of the purposes then set
forth. The president was instructed
on these religious occasions 10 wear
the robes Of the high dukes designed
during the Chow dynasty IN the year
1122 Il &. II was then taken for
granted that all the old time rites
would henceforth be rc.established
with Confucianism as the state rcli-
gion. swinging back the pendulum 10

ALMA WINS AND LOSES.

The college basketball team took a

playing Kalamazoo College and the
REQ Motor Truck team of Lansing ON
succeeding evenings. At Kalamazoo
the college boys met their first Inter
collegiate opponents of the season and
fast game by the score of 30 TO II.
During the first half the Presbyter-
ians played a fine brand of basketball,
the score standing lS to at half time.
However, during the second period
they eased up considerably, and the
Kalamazoo players shot baskets from
every corner of the court. Gallagher
and Wood played exceptionally well
for Alma. Kalamazoo has a wonder

Guilty in winning from all other teams

At Lansing the Alma boys won by
the score of 10 to 13 in a poorly play
ed game. Lighting facilities were UNI
usually poor, due to trouble at the
power plant, and the game was finally
called off before time was up because
the lights went entirely out. Wood
played the best game for the Presby-

baskets.

GYPSY ROVER" PRESENTED
AT BRECK ENRIDGE

A play entitled "The Gypsy Rover,
was presented before a large and very
well pleased audience at Merrill Tues
day evening of last week. The play
was given under the direction of Miss
Mildred Kress. 1t has previously been
presented at the Wright opera house
and in Breckenridge. Many of the
principal parts were taken by local
talent. Among the list of Alma peo-
pie who took leading parts in the per-
Torrance given at Merrill are: Miss
Mildred Kress, John Chick, Ralph
Chisholm, and Ward Hodge.
The story of the play centers around
the life of Sir Gilbert Howe known
as Gypsy Rob-" who was stolen in
his infancy by band of gypsies and
brought up in a gypsy camp. He be-
comes leader of the band. One day
he encounters Lady Constance, a
daughter of Sir George Martindale,
who is lost in the woods and pilots her
to safety. The couple falls in love
with each other. Later "Rob," the
gypsy lover, visits her home, seren-
AIDES her and persuades her to elope
with him, thus escaping a distasteful
marriage with Lord Craven, her faith
er's choice. The elopement is frustrat-
ed by Sir George. Later, when Rob
learns of his identity and comes into
possession of his estate and lawful
title, Sir Gilbert Howe, and woos and
wins the love of Lady Constance and
the approval of Sir George. Thus the
story ends in the approved way "they
live happily ever after"
