that his mother would have to be up
with him for about two hours at a

as soon as we retired he commenced
coughing. His mother rubbed Vap-O-
Rub on his throat and chest He
coughed few times, but after the va

more and slept well all night 1 can

Liquor Consumption Drops.

The complete report of the commits
sioner of internal revenue for the year
ending June 80, 1915, is out. 1t shows
IA decrease in the production of dis
titled spirits during the year of A.
1868 ,439 gallons. The consumption of
distilled liquors, however, is better in
dicated by the withdrawals" which
showed decrease of 14,771, ,427.6 gal
Ions. The evil days fell upon and
crushed 1O8 distilleries.
The decrease in the production of
fermented liquor (beer, etc. amount
ed to 6,381 ,256 barrels, and Al brewer
lies went down before the march of
prohibition.
There are many indications that the
present commissioner of internal reve-
ue is an honest man, fearig neither
"drys" nor SWEETS" He says:
"The decrease here noted occurred
principally in beverage spirits-whis-
ky, rum and gin-and the falling off
lin this class of spirits is doubtless at
lltributable in large measure to the
prohibition laws enacted in many o;
the states" Again, he says:
! "a gradual decrease in annual re-
ceipts from this source, in consequence
of the state prohibition laws, may,
think, be safely predicted"

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The Valley interscholastic basket
ball season will open Saturday, JAN
uary 8, with Brawley VS.. Calexico, at
Calexico, and Holtville VS.. Ell Centre,
at Ell Centre. AS the season draws
near more enthusiasm is shown by
the High School students.
Before the introduction of football,
a year ago, basketball reigned during
the fall and winter months. Now,
however, the basketball season is short
and strenuous. The season begins
January and ends February 5, max
ing 5 weeks and games for each
school to play.
FL Centre has a strong basketball
team this year and has hopes of win
ming the third championship in bas-
ket5all, having won in 1912 and 1915
In the history of basketball in the val
ley, Ell Centro won in 1912, Holtville
in 1913, Brawley in 1914 and Ell Cen
tro in 1914.
The Holtville-El Centre game will
be played at the local High School
Saturday and will be called at 3
o'clock. A small admission will be
charged-about 10 cents-to cover the
expenses of the basketball season.
The 2 girls basketball teams ol
Holtville and FL Centre will also CLASH
Saturday. This game will be at the
same time as the boys game.
This feature of a double-header was
started last year and worked so wei
that it is a very popular idea now
The girls game is as interesting az
the boys and affords just as much ex
citement. No extra admission viii
be charged for the girls game.
