The first half ended with Mankato in
the lead, the score being 1911. The
game had already shown signs of true
classic grandeur although the Teutonic
spirit as usual was somewhat liesurelv
in showing up. Mankato had scored
several points on freak shots, one wierd
attempt at a backward throw over the
shoulder landing in the net. In team
work, New Ulm was rather ragged. the
guards throwing away the ball repeatedly.
: In the second half, things began to
happen. The New Ulm team came out
on the floor fortified with a little psyche
logical ozone, little cocoa butter, and
the fatalist's determination to win or die
in. the attempt. Then as the Poet would
say it, "Hades broke loose" In a
wonderful rally the team ran up the
score from eleven to twenty-five, while
the crowd without a dissenting vote
stood up and howled like a suffragette
convention. Every man on the New
Ulm team was giving every ounce of fight
that was in him, and the crowd realized
that, too, and cheered accordingly.
Schleuder and Dougher scored several
baskets on quick plays from center; H.
Berg made shot from back of center
which will make him a hero for the rest
OF the week; but the iron cross belongs
to Hilton Durbahn for two baskets which
he Gagged by leaping over the heads of
his guards and for the one which he
scored after dribble that passed the
whole Mankato team as well as several
rules OF basketball. Durbahn scored
seven baskets during the game to threy

GIVE "SYRUP. OF FIGS"
TO CONSTIPATED CHILD
Delicious "Fruit Laxative" can't harm
tender little Stomach, liver
and bowels.

Look at the tongue, mother! If
coated, your little ones stomach, liver
and bowels need cleansing at once.
When peevish, CROSS. listless, doesn't
sleep, eat or act naturally, or is fever
ish, stomach sour, breath bad; has
sore throat, diarrhea, full of cold, give
a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of
Figs" and in few hours all the foul,
constipated waste, undigested food
and sour bile gently moves out of its
little bowels without gripping, and you
have a well, playful child again. Ask
your druggist for 50-cent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs" which con-
tains full directions for babies, chill
dren of all ages and for grown-ups.

far the best he had ever shown during
his whole high school athletic career; it
was q fitting climax TO an excellent
record. Leo Berg, also playing hs last
game for the Lavender and White,
divides stellar honors with Dlrbahn
His guarding game was ofa calibre seldom
seen on a high school floor. He covered
his man well, broke up plays, and toward
the last when the Mankato players had
again tied the score at 2626 he was the
mainstay of the defensive game for New
Ulm.
Although the game was hard fought,
it was never Intentionally rough or un-
sportsmanlike. Both teams fought on
even terms and the players showed their
good will under the most trying condi-
tons. The Mankato players are
sportsmanlike lot and they took their
defeat in good spirit. On the whole,
although it was inferior to the Mountain.
Lake game in team work, this game was
the best played this season on the local
floor. 1t demonstrated the ability of the
New Ulm players to come back and play
a great game against a superior team
after the encouragement of several de-
feats under adverse conditions.

CITY LEAGUE Il BOWLING.

Both matches in the City League were
forfeited this week one to the Spinners
and the other to the Royal Nibbs. The
spinners and the Americans and the
Majors and the Royal Nibbs were to
meet. The members of both the Ameri-
cans and the Majors failed to appear as
they thot that on account of the many
dances in town there would be no bowling
on that evening. This brings the Spin

one game behind the leaders.

The Beck's Specials put stone in the
cog wheel of the Telephone bowling team

place, the Colts having taken three from

any high scores, "Cy'' Groebner being
high with 492 for a total. The entire
match went to the Telephones by three
pins, which was the majority by which

first and the last game were taken by 46
pins each, one by each team. The scores

be allowed to enroll in it. No estimate

ally engaged in war and how many

Of pay?" What will their allowances
he?' with what will they be equip
ped?' These and various other ques-
lions are heard on every hand. The
answer in part is:
Officers and men of the National
Guard of Georgia will draw the pay
and allowances provided for men in
the regular service from the day they
go into camp until they are mustered
out of the service.
If Georgia furnishes a full briagde

gade adjutant will receive $4,000 a
year, or $3.50 a month. The colonies,
$4,000 year; captains, $2,4OO a year,
first lieutenants, $4,000 year and sec
ond lieutenants, $1,7OO year.
The pay of commissioned Off
GERS ranges from $50 a month for SER
geants to $24 month for corporals,
while the privates will receive SIS a
month for first enlistments. Regular
army pay will be given musicians,
cooks, ordnance men and others.
AS he leaves camp and throughout
the campaign, each soldier will carry
twenty pounds of equipment on his
back. The old type of blanket roll
which fits over the shoulder is to be
by a newer and more compact
roll, which can be carried on the back.
Each man carries short-handled in
trenchment tool. On occasions part of
this equipment may be carried on the
wagons unless the commanding officer
has dyspepsia or something.

Where tie bullets play;
In the homo which you shall leave,
Sick from heart-concern.
She will never cease to fret
For your fe return.
Don't forget Jour mother, boy
Write to Her, somehow;
Let no sort of obstacle
Make you break your vow;
If you will but do your part,
Picturing her face,
She will bear her heavy cross
With abiding grace.
Don't forget your mother, boy,
Where the mad shells burst;
In the duties you perform
Prove that she comes first;
While resolved to laugh at Fate,
And to pay the price,
Il is she who, after all,
Makes the sacrifice.

When your country will
Long have ceased to breathe your name
She shall love you still;
