Lancaster high school basket
ball FIVE pulled down two victories
last week. One was over Dodge
vile, 10 to ID; the other over Mont
fort, % to 10. Next game is ex-

that should be ours.
1t is with sincere regret that we
have to announce the continued illness
of Mrs. Belle Dudley Smith. "B.
D. 81 by reason of her indisposi-
ton, is unable to fill one commission
of love, that of writing the obituary

a like service for others.
Wisconsin has only 100000
sheep. We should have ten times
that number. In Scotland, where
pastures and grains are scarce indeed,
compared TO our production, there

and a prize fight staged for St.
