Players Were Allowed Too

Goddard was the victor in a closely
contested game OF basketball with New

nasium Saturday night by the score OF

The game was one OF the most unsat-
isfactory to watch that has been played
here this season. Neither team showed
any marked ability at handling the ball,
Newbury being especially wild in her
passes. Keefe as referee was new to
tho position and failed to call many fouls
that looked like bad ones from the
bleachers. Conner, for the local sem
mary, failed TO get his usual number of
baskets, his failure being due chiefly TO
the excellent work of Brock as guard for
the visitors. Loudon starred for the God.
dard team with four baskets to his cred
it and II. Carlson secured three for the
visitors.
The first half was all Goddard's. Lou
don starting off with two field goals and
his teammates following up with five
more before the Newbury team secured
single point. Brock secured the first bas-
ket for the visitors. II. Carlson and Hen
derson getting the only other baskets by
Newbury in this period. Goddard got
nine baskets in all, making the score for
this half Is to 6 in favor of the local
team.
The second half was nearly as one sid
ed as the first except that the advantage
was all on the other side. Eight or nine
minutes elapsed before either side scored
but then Newbury got going and found
the cage successfully six times before
the whistle was blown. c. Carlson con

for H. Goslant during the
last seven minutes and got one of the
two baskets scored by his team during
the period. The other was Gagged by A. I

TORS AND WIRELESS

One Of the objections urged against
the adoption of the equal franchise
amendment to the State constitution
in West Virginia is the fact that
women do not bear arms in case Of
war. They may not bear the actual
muskets but they certainly bear the
heavier burden when the country ia
at war. The history of every mod.
ern war is as much the, history Of
the devotion and suffering of the
women as Of the men. War in this
Christian age would be unbearable

man except for the women who aid
him in bearing the heat and burden
Of the conflict.

'SUGARISCARCE
ASA RESULT
OF GREAT WAR
Importance ofThat Commodity
.uis Realized as Never Be-
fore in Germany.
Correspondence Of Associated Press)

Correspondence OF Associated Press)
ZURICH, Switzerland, April 21.-
From all parts Of Germany are COM
ing reports of tho scarcity OF sugar.
The war has shown how indispensable
foodstuh sugar is-two grammes are
said by chemists u be equal in nour-
ishment to one gramme Of butter. And
since butter and margarine, and lard,
and oil kinds offats, are now only pro-
durable In very, small quantities, at
very high prices, the Importance OF
sugar has become much greater than
ever before.
Before the war Germany exported
more sugar than any other European
country. After providing for the do
nestle consumption Of 100000 tons,
another 100000 tons were exported.
When the war broke out the German
sugar interests feared they would be
swamped with their stocks. and i'm
plored the government to permit them
to continue to export 1t as before, az
sorting that the next harvest added to
the stocks on hand. would suffice for
all human needs for two years. The
government consented and the con-
sequence was that immense quantities
OF sugar were sent through Holland
and reached the English market. This
permission to export was soon with
drawn but 1t proved how the govern
ment had underestimate the length
OF the war.
AT first sugar prices rose scarcely
at all, 1t was only when butter and fats
began to grow scarce that German
housewives were urged to substitute
sugar for them in the form Of jams.
Then came the idea to use sugar for
fodder purposes. and nearly a million
tons were consumed in this way last
year. Large quantities also were TAX
en- for making compressed yeast for
the bakeries and In the manufacture OF
spirits instead Of the unusual grain
and potatoes. r.laa
The area Of sugar beet cultivation
decreased also owing to the higher
rents demanded for land and the pro.
duction has decreased because of the
scarcity OF labor and OF artificial ma
nures. Taken at the best the beetroot
crop OF 1915 brought only some
100000 tons against 5,500000 tons in
normal times. The government has
now forbidden the use of sugar for
cattle feeding. and also in breweries,
and further cut down the supply for
chocolate and candy manufacturers by
one half. But still in March. before the
first half of the sugar harvest year is
over. there is an alarming scarcity.
There is little doubt that large guam
titles are being deliberately held back
for higher prices. despite all the
threats OF the authorities against per-
sons acting in this manner.

What to Do to Get Fat

For such condition It is we'll to
