Local Militia Scores So to IL Over
Company A Five of Frederick.

With Governor Harrington and State
Treasurer Dennis as the guests Of hon
or. the Company NJ basketball team
made a big stride toward the Regi-
mental Championship BY defeating
Company A Eve OF Frederick. last
night in the Bladen street arlnory,

game, between the two local teams
win be played next Monday evening
One or the other is now certain to Sc
cure top honors in the Regimental

The Company NJ players had some
difficulty in getting a start, shooting
miserably in the first part of the game.
However, they began TO get in their
stride toward the close of the half,
which ended % to II in favor of the
locals. The second half proved
walkover for CompanyM
Claude, Who took Myers place, was
the big point maker, and his record of
ten goals in one half has probably not
been equalled by a local player
Dawes also found the backet n the
second half, and Musterman and Lin
ton continued their good work. To-
wards the close, all of Company Ms
substitutes had got in the game
One very important element in the
BIG score which Company NJ piled up
was the advantage in height which
both of its centers had ever their oppo-
nents Both Myers and Claude tow
cred over the Frederick lad, and in al
most every case secured the ball on
the toss-up, and started the team work

Troubles of a Great Bank,

The Bank of England has had its
troubles, Notwithstanding its great
financial strength. 1t has passed
through many perils. At various times
its notes have been at heavy dis
count, its credit has been assailed, it
has been threatened with impeachment
and 1t has been attacked by rioters.
The first run" ON the bank occurred
in 1907. Other panics or runs occurred
in 1745, 1907 and 1925. In 1882 the
Duke of Wellington was unpopular,
and four men placarded the walls of
London with the words, ITO stop the
duke, go for gold" Nobody knew ex-
actly what 1t meant, but it produced
a tremendous run on the bank. At
one time the bank lost $4,000, or al
most $1,5O0,0O0, through the forgeries
of one man and still more at another
time by the forgeries of another man.

''The Old Auto May Roam"

In commenting on the rumor that ex-
Gov. Fletcher may b. candidate for the
United States Senate the St. Adams Mes
senger doesn't mix things any in the
following:
The Fletcher candidacy. if such it is
has been naturally of pussy-cat char
acter up to this time-has to be con-
sidered in a measure for only one reason.
Mr.. Fletcher possesses the means to
wage a campaign to the limit; he
would not have to count the cost. Be-
cause of this he could make some trouble,
but it would not assume proportions
which would be threatening. Beyond
this Mr.. Fletcher could not go, perhaps
he could not 60 so far, for the game
might be fathomed in time by the people,
who would refuse to fall for it. There
fore, the old automobile may roam the
hills and valleys of Vermont from now
until primary day, but it will be waste
of gasolne-at record high price. The
old rhinoceros vest may be pulled out of
closet to protect it's owner from the
shafts of bitter and certain criticism, but
The shafts will 6nd their mark, as they
lid of yore. Mr.. Fletcher will not go
to the Senate because it is not in the
Vermont blood to send to Washington a
nan who is willing to make use of his
high office to treat the constitution of
the state with contempt and try to tear
t into pieces as mere scrap of paper"

Evolution of a Word.

The word admiral is only the mod
ernized form, through Latin transla-
tion, of the word amir or emir, which
means commander. The amir-al-bahr
was the commander of the sea and
was one of the many variations of the
title amir-al-muminin, or commander
of the faithful, assumed by the Caliph
Oma. Medieval Europe appropriated
the word and Latinized it as admira-
lis, whence later it came into the
French language through the old
French ADMIRAL. Its first appearance
in English prose is in the chronicle OF
Layamon, that famous monk of Earn
ley, on the Severn sea, who took a
book skin and wrote on it his famous
chronicle. Layamon talks of an adj
miral of Babiloine. This was in 1905,
but it was not until two and a half
centuries later that the word appeared
for the first time in the chronicle of
Capgrave in the form "amyrel of the
&C." Thence it has descended to us in
the form popularity known.-Christian
Science Monitor.

The Air We Breathe.

Secondhand air is far worse than a
secondhand toothbrush, yet many per-
sons who would be Mortified at the use
of the latter are willing TO inhale the
air exhaled from other peoples lungs.
The Importance of good ventilation
where several people are sitting cam
not be overemphasized. In providing
air remember that if two gas jets are
burning they are consuming as much
good air as four persons, and one kero-
sene lamp consumes the same amount.
a lamp left with the fame turned down
adds very much to the impurity of the
air because of imperfect combustion.

capes how necessary it is to take it
down frequently and air it.-Mother's

The luck that I believe in
Is that which comes with work,
And no one ever finds it
Who's content to wish and shirk.
The men the world calls lucky
Will tell you every one,
That success comes not by wishing,
But by hard work bravely done.
