.DAYTONA VS.. SANFORD
AT ARCADE ON FRIDAY

The Daytona high school basket
ball team will meet the local Sanford
quintet on Friday night at 500 o'clock
at the Arcade. The play promises to
be fast, though the odds are in favor
of D. H. s., which has superior speed
and stability.
When Daytona and Sanford fought
it out on November II, 1915, D. H. s.
carried off the honors with score
of % to Is. At that time the team
was not in as good condition as it is
today. for the season had hardly
opened.
The Sanford boys are quite sangu-
inc in regard to the opening contest
and the audience may expect some
snappy basket ball.

SNOWFALL PERFORMS.

One day, while Snowfall was in the
city, he saw a sign which read: "See
Prof Anastasius Papadopoulas' trained
cats"
Trained cats?" said SNOWFALL. 81
wonder what they can do? III go in
and see." When his master had gone
to lunch that day SNOWFALL went to the
theater. There were cats big and lit
tie. One walked a tight rope, another
very handsome cat waltzed to the mu-
sic Of the orchestra and one cat
wheeled a kitten in a cart. 81 should
not care to be the kitten In the cart"
thought Snowfall, as the cart tipped
from side to side.
The thing that pleased Snowfall the
most was the cat that walked across
the stage on its front paws while its
hind feet were raised in the air and
steadied by little stick which the
professor held. "If could do that"
said Snowfall, 'T should be the most
wonderful cat in the neighborhood
They are very smart Kittens" said
Snowfall, as he went out, and all the
way home he wondered how he could
practice the wonderful things he had
seen without Kit and Puff seeing him
until he was able to perform perfectly.

were asleep in their basket, SNOWFALL

SYRUP OF figs FOR
A CHILD'S BOWELS
It IS cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Kook back at your childhood days.
Remember the "dose" mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form OF
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little "insides" are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup of Figs" It's
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
Of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, and that teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor-
row.
Ask at the store for 50-cent bottle
OF California Syrup of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, children
Of all ages and for grown-ups plainly

DECORATING A GIRLS ROOM
Furnishings Should Be Kept Simple
and Of Such Material That They
May Be Easily Cleaned.

The decorations and furnishings in
a girls room should be kept simple.
The curtains, hangings, dresser scarfs
and pin-cushions, even the toilet ar
ticles, should all be of such material
that they may be cleaned easily.
Thin, sheer materials make the
daintiest covers for dressers and ta-
bles, while the side curtains may be
of heavier cretonne or linen over thin
white muslin. Toilet articles of cell
luloid are in better taste than those
of heavily embossed, plated silver,
which become tarnished.
The woodwork is always incest
when painted cream-white, while the
floor should be either stained or paint
ed, and covered with a large rug or
small ones. Rag rugs are as fitting
as any floor covering, and they come
in lovely colors. You may sew the
rags and have the rugs woven to or
der, and obtain Just the shades de-
sired by having dyed the colors your
self. The walls may be papered in a
plain, striped or flowered paper, or
tinted, or even painted, in clear, fax
tone. Plain ceilings are always most
restful, and if figured walls are pres
ent 1t is best to have the hangings
plain also.

him. SNOWFALL walked across the barn
and back to the curtain and then gave
spring and landed on all four feet.
But what was the matter with his
hind legs2 They felt queer and he
could not move them Puff pushed him
behind the curtain. The audience ap-
plauded and called for SNOWFALL but
he could not walk. His hind legs were
held fast by the stick.
Puff and Kit were smiling and bow
ing and getting all the glory out in
front. What should he do? And what
had happened? He put his nose around
and felt something sticky. Then he
knew Puff and Kit had put glue on
the stick and it was stuck fast to his
fur. They had crippled him that they
might be in front of the curtain alone
to receive the applause and congratu-
lations of the audience.
Poor SNOWFALL! He licked and licked
at the stick, but by the time he had
moved the sticky hobble the cats and
kittens had gone.
Snowfall went into the house and
stretched himself behind the kitchen
stove to think over his unjust treat
ment, and how he could punish Puff
and Kit for the trick they had played
on him.

hind legs and found that he could
waltz very well, or he felt sure he
could II he had the music, but to walk
on his front feet with his hind Iegs
held up high was very difficult thing
to do, he found. He could stand on
his front feet with his hind feet
against the side of the barn, but when
he tried to walk he could not balance
himself. 'I could ask Puff or Kit to
hold the stick as the professor did he
thought, but they would be sure to
claim all the glory. I'll try walking
the clothesline first and practice this
again." He ran up the post and very
cautiously put one paw on the line. 1t

He clawed the line flercely with his

in it, then he drew one hind foot very
carefully from the post, but just as he

Snowfall, "one of the professors cats

the other tricks. l will have to ask
Puff to hold the stick under my hind
feet, l suppose, for l must do that
trick anyway"
All the tabbies and kittens for miles
around were invited to see SNOWFALL
in his wonderful three-act perform

some of the younger kittens climbed
into the hay loft.
Kit announced that SNOWFALL would
first perform his wonderful act of
walking on his hind legs. Snowfall
came from behind horse blanket cur

stall. He was dressed in his red
sweater. He bowed to the audience,
