EVERYBODY ROOT,
 GO zEbRAS Af1Ek
 BULL PUPS TODAY
zebras a Bit Crippled, But DasSett Can Call on
 Big Reserve.

All the preliminary movements leading up to a game of football were pulled off last night by the Pine Bluff High school balls. SO that nothihg remains but for a great crowd to assemble on Athletic field this afternoon and root hard, incas- sanity, loud and long for the Zebras. .lIi" boys or better yet, Coach Bas- sett's Husky HI zebras
 The boys held their snake and oth- CT dances in the streets, a parade and charivari which added consider ably to the interest in local life and was . call to the colors, for every body in Pine Bluff must respond and crowd the space reserved for the general public.
 Coach Bassett sent his huskies through a hard afternoon yesterday in preparation for the big battle to- day with the Hendrix College Sec ond team, better known as the Bull Pups. Not much is known of the Pups this season, but last year they had one of the best teams in the state and the Zebras had to- exert all their reserve power to defeat them by a close score. The College team will outweigh the HI team by ten pounds but the Hi lads intend to overcome this weight with speed.
 All week the coach has been call- Ing for more speed and has been on their heels every minute. The track has been used extensively and every man who goes in the game today will be In the pink of condition with the exception of Capt. Quinn and Wilson who have been on the sick list and are not In any shape to play their best. .f .s5s,
 Hensley the booting kid is able to play today and his toe will add many needed yard to the defense.
 Wilson, the star of last seasons team h suffering with boils and may not be in the line up. Many scrubs are available and some of them will be called upon to hit the ball. The Hendrix team will arrive over the Iron Mountain at 1O:2O a. m. and Will be Quartered at the Y. M. c. A. The game will begin at 2:3O so as to allow the team to catch the 5 o'clock train for Conway.

sems Notable p,onatar,sa

Somewhere in the wilds of Afghan. istan there Is an ameer who boasts of as many high dignities as there are days in the year, among them being :: 'aThe Sovereign of the Universe, whom God created to be as accomplished as the moon at her plentitude: whose eye glitters like the northern star, a king as spiritual as a ball is round, who. when he rises, shades all his people, and from under whose feet . sweet odor Is .wafted." But perhaps the most remarkable title any monarch was ever proud to own was borne by tho king of Monomotapa. whose praises were sung by his court poets and musicians as Lord of the Sun and Moon. Great Magician and Great Thief"

HIGH SCHOOL CARNIVAL.

There was very large crowd in attendance last night at the High school carnival. which was given for the benefit of the school library fund. It was an event that will live long in the memory of all who were so fortunate as to be present, for the boys and girls of Pine Bluffs "Hf" did themselves proud. There was no limit to the amusement afforded, ex- f.ept that which was imposed iby Father Time, for every thing has it's end, and in this case it came all too soon for the patrons of the carnival and the participants in the several numbers.
 It was a success m every sense. The Eight Wonders of the World, were wonders beyond expression. The Hall of Mysteries waa filled with ev- erything to mystify the curious and at ths same time turn a number of five-cent pieces into the treasury. The Fishine Pond was a revelation to all, but 1t was better than the old time fishing pond, where the terra pins took the bait off the hook and the fish failed to bite.
 The Japanese Tea Garden was a thing of beauty, the Booth for Men Only was the surprise for the night. The Back to the Farm booth was an other delightful freak of the vivid i'm agination of it's promoters.
 The Liberty Pageant was an exqui- site production, intensely patriotic and deserving of repetition,' which statement can be applied to-exery feature: of the carnival.

Some familiar faces were seen on the team From Little Rock College among whom was Jack Oaks who is captain and quarterback. Jack played star game both on the offense and defense but he. could not stem the tide and went down to defeat manfully.
 The Little Zebras were fast and anappy all the way through and won on batter smashing and running The attack was led by. Jettie Quinn cap tain and fullback of the third team, supported by Brannon Seaweli and Hooker who composed the back field. All the Title fellows played the game hard and with the exception of some fumbles the game was full of pep and ginger.
 The college third team were weak on tackles and the line could have been better. The back field did their part but the line could not penetrate the defense of the future high school stars.
