AMARILLO LOSES THREE
GAMES OUT Of FOUR
TO LOCAL \. 5.

The much touted Amarillo basket
ball players arrived on schedule
time Friday evening and went to the
opera house where they were sched-
uled to play the local high school.
The girls game was started
promptly at S:l5 and two fifteen
minute halves were played. Anna
rillo succeeded in making ten points
while the locals only made forty.
No particular person was response
BILE for the scores made by Tucum-
carl as the team work was near
perfection.
The boys game was fast and the
home team was defeated by a score
of 80 to u.
After the games the Amarillo
players were escorted to the Glen
rock cafe where specially prepared
supper was served.
Saturday night after the picture
show the second exhibition was
pulled off and the visiting girls, af-
ter brooding over the overwhelming
defeat of the night before. entered
the game with full intentions of
winning or die in the attempt. They
played rough game and the referee
had to cal! foul after foul because of
undue efforts To block the local for
wards from throwing field goals.
To those who did not understand the
game it looked like the referee was
partial to Tucumcari but she was
not and the home girls should be
commended on their ability to take
rough treatment and continue to
play clean game. Tucumcari won
this contest by score of q to II.
During the day Saturday the local
boys were put through rigid prac-
tice for fast passing of the ball and
better team work and entered the
game with full confidence of winning
from the champions from Amarillo.
The big boys were completely be-
wildered by the fast work of the
local team in the first half which
ended with score of 10 TO in favor
Of Tucumcari, the visitors making
all their scores on free throws on ac-
count of fouls called on Tucumcari.
Amarillo kicked on fouls being called
on them although only twelve were
registered against them during both
periods while the referee and umpire
succeeded in calling twenty fouls on
the home boys. They had size and
wanted to be turned loose on Tucum-
carl cutting out fouls and allow a
free-for-all catch-as-catch-can affair.
As il was one Of their players took
the count when he butted heads with
Goldenberg.
The game ended with a score Of
- to % in favor of Tucumcari and
was pronounced the fastest ever
played in this city. Guarding by
Reynolds and the throwing of goals
by Wharton were features, but
every member of the team was a
star and played an excellent game.
This series of games which gave
Tucumcari three out of four puts
both teams in the lime-light and
shows that we have players who
know the game and have energies
enough to play it. The games were
well attended and a financial success.

WHAT GOOD ROADS WILL
DO FOR QUAY COUNTY

The following letter will explain
itself and brings good cheer TO every
booster in this part of the county.
II shows united effort To put Quay
county on the map and put the
roads in shape for travel:
Mr.. Editor:
1t is the duty of every citizen to
try and make Quay county the best
place in which to live. To do this
there should be no conflict of inter
ests between the farmer and the
business men of our county. Each
has his own particular work To do in
his own way, toward carrying this
out. Therefore the business men
and merchants should have an ac-
tive interest in the welfare of the
farmer and ranchmcn, and the farm
er and ranchmen i'm the welfare of
the business men and merchant. In
this way. we help each other and in
helping each other. we help our
selves.
To obtain this all the people ef
Quay county should work together
for that purpose. There is no other
way and the sooner all the people in
the county get together in a common
effort, and vote for the proposed
road bond issue, the sooner prosper
ity will begin to grow.
Our possibilities would be without
limit. To have good roads will help
to bring about a new and wonder
fully improved order of things in
rural homes. So be of good cheer,
plan how we may receive and enjoy
tie benefits of good roads and To
make us at home in Quay county.
One great reason that Quay coun-
ty has not been spreading herself is
on account of not having good roads.
She has the climate and soil to make
this the best place on Gods green
earth. To those who have not kept
abreast of such evidences Of pros
perity in other places on account Of
having good roads would be a revel-
alton.
For the time is near when most all
farmers and ranchmen will own
motor cars. Then dropping all the
cares of the farm and ranch. take
Susan Jane and all the kids at the
end of weeks hard work, go rush.
ing through the cool bracing air,
over smooth roads to town would
make us all feel happy.
II we want prosperity, we should
do our part to bring it about. Lay
down your hammer and vote for the
proposed Bonds. It will cost no
more now to build good roads than
it will ten years from now. Quay
county should start before othe,
counties get the start of her. BY so
doing we will find this county of
ours pretty good place after all.
Rest assured that Quay county
will enter into an era of prosperity
that will bring JOY and peace tc
every home in the county.
So let's move up and not slow
down until this is accomplished.

GOOD ATTRACTIONS
 AT PARSONS THEATER

Selwyn & Co.'S production of Twin Beds will be given at the Parsons theater, Hartford, tomorrow and Wednesday, with matinees both days. The indications are that playgOers will crowd the Parsons tomorrow af- ternoon, when the famous farce will open it's limited engagement of four performances. There will be two performances on Wednesday, when the engagement will close.
 Hazel Dawn, the blonde beauty and star of 'sThe Debutante,'' which comes to the Parsons theater Thursday and Friday, with special Lincoln's birth day matinee on Friday, believes it to be a veritable fallacy for actresses to permit a love of their art to prevent them from being good cooks. She says it makes no difference whether or not they expect to ever preside over a home in which they will be obliged to do the cooking, all actresses should be versed in how to prepare edible dishes.
 Excuse Me- a farce that sets forth the incidents of a journey by rail from Chicago to Reno, will be pre- sented by the s. T. King Amusement company, incorporated, at the Par sons theater on Saturday, matinee and night, with the cast that was in

RIG ADVANCE SALE
 AT POLI'S THEATER

'"Tne Blindness of Virtue" is the play in which the Polt Players will appear twice daily all this week in Hartford. The advance sale for the twelve productions has been large. The play is. endorsed by Dr. Park hurst of New York, Rev. Madison C. Peters of Brooklyn, Rev. Allyn K. Foster of Worcester, as well as Mrs. Kathryn Houghton Hepburn of this city Although The Blindness Virtue does teach a lesson that every mother and daughter should know, it is not a religious play in any sense of the word. It is a comedy drama in which the master hand of Cosmo Hamilton has woven, story that of itself shows the shortcomings of some fathers and mothers. It is an everyday story of real people meeting real problems and yet it does not become a preachy sermon. The play, as play, is entertaining, being a happy combination of com edy and dramatic incidents that hold the undivided; attention. The story of the play centers about a young couple who love each other. The lad, sent to the home of a vicar to be curbed in his rather questionable mode of living, falls in love with the vicar's daughter.

THE GILDED FOOL"
 AT FOXS TWO DAYS

It is indeed difficult to ina zine Will liam Farnum, the dynamic and force full actor, star of many big successes and remem bered here for his won
 derful work in Rex Beach's Spoil ers'' and Henri Bernstein's Sam son. to play the part of comedian, and yet this is just what he does in the William Fox production of The gilded fool, who spends his days in success as played by Nat Goodwin, which holds the headline honors on the motion picture bill at FoXs to- day and tomorrow. ,'The Gilded Fool, by Henry Guy Carlton, is a powerfully appealing photo-play with a compell- ing combination of love, high finance and the life of the Gay White Way. The plot deals with the progress of young Chauncey Short, typical gilded gool, who spends his days in idleness and his nights in frivolity. How he meets the only girl and through love of her is aroused. to realization of his many shortcomings is story that strikes home to the hardest heart. The climax comes when, after a fiercely fought battle of finance, the erstwhile "Gilded fooP' thwarts the contrivings of the thieving rascal and saves his fiancee's father from ruin. Maude Gilbert, leading woman with both Robert Hill Hard and William Gillette in their greatest successes, gives charming support to MT. Farnum, while the balance of the cast includes Charles Guthrie, Harry Spingler and the initial showing of Margaret Vale, a niece of President Wilson, and many other players of undoubted ability.
 Also on today's program is the much looked forward to periodical "The Pathe News" which depicts the most important happenings our coun- try over and the very latest news from the theater of war The balance of the quality photo-plays are excellent single reel comedies and dramas and two solid hours of refined and diversi- fled entertainment that will please the most fastidious.

PASS PRIVILEGE,
 LYCEUM TONIGHT

The attraction at the Lyceum this evening will be He Fell in Love With His Wife, In connection with this attraction the management offers a pass privilege to patrons to convince them of the. excellence of the per formances in the first half of the week A limited number of passes have been distributed and any one having a pass will be given ticket for the performance Monday or Tuesday night when presenting It with ticket purchased in the resu- lar advance sale. The restrictions placed on the special privilege is that the exchange must be made before 6:3O in the evening and Is good only for Monday or Tuesday evenings.
 'sHe Fell in Love With His Wife contains a vast amount of character istic qualities and they go to make for the success of this wonderful at traction. The forem ost essential of Fl great play is a deep. human note which touches a responsive chord in the heart of the audience, and what note can be deeper or more human than that Of a genuine love springlng LID gradually between man and woman, who are both in honor bound to deny this very fact to themselVes James Holcrof fights with manly ana almost stubborn persistency to re-
 main true to his first wife ana Al1da Armstrong makes a brave and Wom- anlv effort to live up to the agree ment she practically swore before en- tering her human marriage with Hol- crof. Man and woman are the same the world over and as the play pro- gresses a strong sympathy grows In the audience for the principals. Aida discovers her true love just at the time when Henry Ferguson seeks for a second time to wreck her happiness. Tate and the alertness of Holcrof balk Ferguson. The audience Is car ried through some rather uncertain and most exciting moments and the thrilling action and drawn suspense holds the audience intensely inter eSted.

carried away in their wagon. And the man of the house has not only escaped all discomfort, but in most cases does not realize that anything has hap pened during his absence. Our grand mothers might look with suspicion on this kind of housecleaning, doubting it's thoroughness, but we know thet from every point of view it is far more thorough and sanitary than their moro laborious meth Ods.
 One secret of this present day house. cleaning is the general use of rugs in place of the Old-fashioned heavy car pets and the daily use of modern cleaning appliances. These special wall bruhes, stair brushes. dustlcss clusters that polish as they go, dust les mops, waxed floor polishers and the improvements in all branches of housework keep the home always clean.
 The pantries and kitchen receive their weekly cleaning much as in the olden days. Here, perhaps, science has done less to reduce labor than i'll other parts of the house, for as long as we use dishes they must be washed silver must be polished and glassware cleaned carefully and perfectly. and until fashion supplies and encourages the use of table fittings that may be destroyed after each meal the dish pan must be reckoned with in the round of each days duties.
 The housekeeper who would keep up to date should make a tour freouently of large househ old shops ore depart ments in the larger stores and get ac- quainted with the many conveniences offered for her consideration. She should acquire the time saving de- vices that make for efficiency in the kitchen, just as man seeks for eff cient office and shop devices

 New Haven, Conn.-The other night: To the average notion the actor is not a very busy person. The fact that his days work consists of a few hours on the stage seems to in dicate that he has almost unlimited leisure. But here is a stage pair that couldn't find time to marry except at midnight, after the close of a per- formance. The trouble was they were in stock, and the stock actor and actress are, between matinee and night performances, rehearsals and preparations for new productions, req sonably occupied
 Mrs. Adelaide Frances Hubbard Fogarty was the bride. The husband is Frank Wright and both are mem bers of the Russwin Stock company of New Britain, Conn. Mrs. Fogarty- Wright is daughter of the late George Albee Hubbard, once mayor of Boston, and her mother is the head of the stock company. Mrs. Fogarty, that was, has been playing in her mothers company since the death Of her first husband.
 The couple had been trying to be married for some time, but they are literally too busy. few nights ago 2 motor car drew up at Hartford, and the stage couple, with their seconds and witnesses, got license and were married at one minute after midnight Within half an hour they were on their way back to New Britain The next afternoon they were at their the ater rehearsing the next weeks play Such are the exigencies of romance
