MANY SEE TWO FAST
BASKETBALL GAMES

A small crowd of basketball lovers
saw two fast and intensely interest
ing games last night at the Y. M. C.
A. at the opening of the Senior
League.
The four teams passed well and
guarded closely, but showed that
more practices are needed to round
out good even pass work.
In the first game, the Swans
Downs defeated the B. F. Kings rs
to 20. Fickas was the big point
getter for the Swans Downs, netting
six field goals and as many foul
goals. The whole team passed ex-
ceptionally well. Caro-, for the B. F.
Kings, scored 5 goals from the field,
with Jacoby scoring eight points. AL
though working against odds the
Kings came back in the second half
and scored one more point than their
opponents.
The second game ended in a VIC
tory for the Wilson-Biggs over the
Karos, by the score of "a to II. AK
elson starred for the Wilson Biggs
caging nine field goals and five foul
goals. Herskovitz, captain of the
Karos, scored two goals from the
floor and seven foul goals. Both
teams passed equally well, but the
losers, as the score shows, were moi
there with the goal shooting.

RUNAWAY BOYS
ARE CAUGHT

Desiring to try fortunes in new
and untried fields, three youngsters
from the naval reservation were re-
ported to the police last night, parents
asking that they be stopped. One of
them, Clarence Navarro, was inter-
cepted and sent to the station last
night. No charge was made against
him, and he will this morning be
turned over to his parents. Two of
his companions, it was asserted last
night, succeeded in getting rid of a
bicycle which they owned, and with
the purchase price, are said to have
left last night on a northbound train.
Just how far they swill go is I'M
gknown.
Navarro, it was stated, informed
the police that he was given but rs
cents of the price obtained for tae
bicycle, and on this he was unable
to go far, hence his stay in Pensa-
cola.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE

It is not a dream to be realized some time in the future. It is here. The women have primary suffrage" in Arkansas, if they will avail them selves of the privilege of using it.
 Remember, however, that you must pay your poll tax-$100, before you can exercise this power. Remember, too, that the money derived from paying the poll tax goes to the school fund in your locality. Surely you will want to help that much in build ing up your schools. What is com munity without good schools? It is a crime to rob the children of an edu- cation-that culture which makes it possible for them to enjoy life a thousand fold more than if let re- main in ignorance.
 We may want to have voice in who constitutes our school boards, too. We may want to do many things that will help in good government.
 Don't listen to the statement "A womans place is in the home." Let such an one define the home, and don't allow it circumscribed by the four walls of your abiding place, but let it be extended wherever on this wide earth your children are likely to roam. Let us help make this larger home safe place for them to dwell, and help to make it as free from strife and bloodshed as is the little vine-clad cottage where the family meets at eventide when the birdlings are all too small to go out into the larger home.-J. c.

A meeting of special interest will be held with Mrs. W. A. McMillan Thursday afternoon at 3:3O. Every member and every friend who wants to cooperate with the Red Cross work will please be presenst.
 There is no organization better equipped to meet the eXigencies of the war situation than is the Wo- mans Christian Temperance Union. The spirit of this work does not need to be generated, for it has existed within this organization from the be- ginning.
 It does not have to form new com- Imittees and work out new plans, for it's machinery is all ready and at work. Through the department of work among soldiers and sailors, and the relief department, almost every phase of Red Cross work can be done.
 Mrs. Blakely will give a report of what constitutes a comfort kit" and we can all get busy fixing as many as possible.
 Thursdays meeting should be the largest in the history of the organi- zation.

SAVE SUGAR IN JELLY MAKING

Much waste of sugar and spoilage of jellies can be avoided by using a simple alcohol test recommended by the Bureau of Chemistry, United States Department of Agriculture. To determine how much sugar should be used with each kind of juice put spoonful of juice in glass and add to it one spoonful of 95 per cent grain alcohol, mixed by shaking the glass gently. Pour slowly from the glass, noting how the pectin-the substance in fruits which makes them iell-is precipitated. If the pectin is pre- cipitated as one lump a cup of sugar may be used for each cup of juice; | if in several Jumps the proportion of sugar must he reduced to approXi- mately trhee-fourths the amount of the juice. If the pectin is not in Jumps but is merely precipitated, the sugar should be one-half or less of the amount of the juice. If the juice shows no precipitation under this test it is unsuitable for jelly making and must be combined with apples or oth- CT juices rich in pectin.
 The housewife will do well before making the test, to taste tn juice, as fruits not as acid asgood tart apples probably will not make good jelly unless mixed with other fruits which are acid.
