NOTES..

Coach Morton is deserving of praise
for his efficient work in drilling the
high school quint. He understands
the game thoroughly, and it is very
evident that the local youngsters
have acquired considerable knoxl-
edge from him.
Tomorrow night the locals win op-
pose the Royalton high school team
at that place. This should be an
Interesting contest, and all pin their
faith to Princeton's representatives
to annex the long end of the score,
During the game Friday night
Newton secured total of seven field
baskets, Frank Umberhocker secured
six, while Peterson was credited
with two, and two free throws also.
The visitors played clean game
and did not indulge in any s'rag
chewing" Princeton is always ready
to welcome athletic organizations
that can win a contest with mod
esty, or lose one with good grace.
Raiche and Berg in the guard po-
sitions did very effective work on
the defensive, and are entitled to a
just share of the credit of the VIC
tory.
Company G's crack basket ball
team will be seen in action again at
the armory tomorrow, Friday, even
ing, at which time the Temple
team of Minneapolis will clash with
the local quint. The Temple team
has been playing an aggressive game
this season, and last year it won the
championship in the church league.
This contest should be a hummer,
as Company G will endeayor to
emerge from the game with the long
end of the score. Don't miss it.

A Pleasing Surprise.

new dwelling house recently COM
pleted- The self-inyited guests had
plenty of eatables with them and a
bounteous supper was served. A
handsome rocker and numerous USE
full dishes were presented to Mr.. and
Mrs. RoseD as tokens Of esteem and
remembrance. A pleasant evening
was passed in playing games, and
upon departure one and all wished
the guests of honor success and hap
piness throughout the coming year. /

He will engage in the moving pic
ture business elsewhere. Both the
local show houses are now under one
management.

Liquor Question in Anoka.

A petition signed by about $50
voters has been presented to the city
charter commission of Anoka re-
questing the submission of an ordi-
nance that no liquor license shall be
issued in that city unless there is a
sworn petition, signed by majority
OF the legal voters of the city, asking
for the granting or renewal of a
license. If the proposition is SUBJ
mitted and carried it will be no
easy matter to secure a liquor license

the war upon the Poles in this coun-
try. He sees hopeful sign in the
fact that the Poles are inspired by
the fight which their former country
men abroad are putting up against
the Germans and that the American
Poles feel more confidence in them
selves as result.
Commenting upon the often-ex-
pressed fear of tidal wave of immi-
grafton after the war is over, Rob-
erts has this to say:
II see that in Washington they are
dreading- the flood of immigration
that will arrive after the war. Well,
don't believe there is any food COM
ing, although I believe a torrent Of
immigration then would be good
thing, as business will boom and
there will not only be no unemploy-
ment, but also demand for labor
that will far exceed the supply"

New York, Jan. 18.-The New York
fire horse in 1918 will be as extinct
as the dinOceras, the dinichthys and
other animals of that uncertain age.
Today there are but thousand
horses in the fire department and
following the policy of replacing the
picturesque animal with the more
practical motor driven vehicles, the
last horse will have disappeared in
three years from now.
Sentiment does not run one, two
or three with municipal govern
ment when it decides to be economical
aid frequent tests have shown that
gasoline is more reasonable than oats
and that the wear and tear on ma
chinery is less than on horse flesh.
The actual figures are interesting.
The tractor which is used to haul
the fire engine costs $500, and the
upkeep is $414.6O a year. Three
horses that do the same work cost
$1,000 for the three, and 5000 a year
for upkeep. A. tractor will last for
20 years; horse but seven years.
One other advantage of the motor
drawn apparatus, an advancement
not to be despised in the skyscraper
district, is the ease with which all
the fire companies may be modified
in a short time.
The youngsters of the future will
have to look elsewhere for ..imagina-
tive material with the passing of the
fire horse.

KILLED THREE FOXES
 IN TWO DAYS. Reuben p, Potter and Samuel Lester Had Good Huntinn in Ledyard.

Reuben F. Potter who finds in fox hunting a seasonable diversion in which he takes great delight, has started the new year with the nice record of bagging three foxes in two days hunting.
 With his newly purchased fox hound Spot, he travelled down to Ledyard in his runabout on New Years morning and there started a fox about 6 o'clock. It was about noon when a shot finally zeeled Reynard over. In company with MT. Potter was Samuel Lester of Ledyard with his noted fox hound. Buck.
 Just as they killed the first fox they got a glimpse of another, which had evidently been running with this one, although the hunters had not known they were running two at once. The dogs were switched over on to the trail of the second fox, which they ran all the afternoon, and finally brought within reach of the hunters guns about , o'clock. With these two to their credit the hunters left the tired dogs in a neighbours barn over night.
 The next morning Mir. Potter was down in Ledyard early again and a fox was started about o'clock and was not killed until in the afternoon All the foxes were the kind called tim Der or little gray foxes and were of good size the first weighing F f-2 pounds and the other two 12 pounds and 10 pounds. respectively. The hunt CTS received the bounty of $2 from the town for each fox and the belts are worth $5 or $6.
