Keepine the RanLs Ell

The world war is so full of deeds
of sacrifice and heroism that the
chronicler of current events can dono
more than touch the high places in
passing. Among the thousands of
examples of devotion to the cause of
liberty perhaps there is none greater
than that shown by Newfoundland.
Br1tain's oldest colony has given so
generously of her manhood for more
than three years and her gallant regi-
ment has so often been reduced to a
thin line by death and disablement
that the question of her ability To
continue the filling of ranks has be-
come matter of grave considera-
ton.
When the war broke out 1000 able
seamen joined the British navy, and
800 volunteers began the formation
OF the Newfoundland regiment. The
number of the seamen has been in
creased since then, and they have had
their share IN naval actions. With
IN year the regiment was LOO
strong. Kitchener reviewed It with
satisfaction, and sent it to the Darda-
neIles, where it captured Caribou
MIL, the farthest point of advance and
at the last formed part of the rear
guard covering the retirement ar
Cape Helles.
Going torrance the Newfoundland
ers were awarded positions of honor.

Exactly six months later, holding the

WINNERS

Fort Hays Normal Tigers are the
Champions of the Kansas Con-
ference
Coopers' wonderful repertoire of
forward pass and fake plays proved
futile before the Tigers and final
score was 35 to o. Twice Rex Welty
caught punt in his position of safe
ty and ran through the entire Cooper
team for touchdoWns. Twice Comp
ton, Tiger fuIlback, carried the ball
over half the length of the field with
gains of less than twelve yards at a
time for touchdowns. Once Ordway
caught thirty yard pass from Gross
for touchdown. A safety completed
the points.
Archer played a great game at
center for the Tigers. Welty made
six runs of forty yards or more. The
Tigers made twenty-five first downs
to none for Cooper. Cooper attempt
ed tWenty-six passes but only six
were successful.
Coach Speer received today a chal-
lenge from Coach Hargiss of the
EmpOria to a post season game. The
athletic board will have to finally de-
eide the proposition. Speer says that
last year. when the Fort Hays Normal
could not get the required six con-
4OISHCS. games I1aTRlSS refused TO play
Hays on the Emporia open dates so
that Hays. could have a chance at
the championship and that his atti-
tude was that Emporia would not
play Hays until a well known
place freezes over. Speer says
that it froze over this after
noon For two years Emporia
refused to play Hays. The con-
ference rules hold that when
thousand per cent. is under considera-
ton the winning of six conference
games carries with it the state title.
The Fort Hays Normal Tigers have
done that. Emporia Normal has not
won six. The only chance for a post
season game is for Hargiss to bring
his men to Hays and pay all their
expenses and all the receipts to go to
the Red Cross. AS Emporia is the
challenging school Speer expects to
set the conditions if the athletic board
orders him to play the post season
game.

NEWS 6 NOTES OF THE FORT HAYS NORMAL SCHOOL.


The Sophomore class play, ''The
Elopement of Ellen" was presented
last Friday evening, at the Normal
Auditorium under the direction of
Mrs. J. W. Read for the benefit of
the Reveille. A large crowd was pres
ent. The play was well received. The
cast and Mrs. Read were the recipi-
ents of many compliments The
members of the cast included, Lynn
McCord, Bernice Clark, Glenn Arch
er, John Callahan, Sophia Shade,
John Noll, and Gertrude Ramsey. Mr..
NOn touched the funny spot all the
time and Miss Ramsey appeared as a
real little leading lady.
Emerson H. Felts, erstwile star
Tiger quarterback, now a first hos
pital apprentice in the u. S. Navy at
tached to the Prometheus, addressed
the students at General Assembly
Monday. His speech was vivid and
told many details of the wartime &C
Invites of the government that were
not only new to all but very interest
ing.

At the Opera House

THE Heart of Hero" as played
at the Hays Opera House Thursday
night, was witnessed by a large and
enthusiastic audience. The setting of
this picture was in the times that
America was in its making. Those
were the days that tried mems souls
and Nathan Hale whose story was so
wildly portrayed will no doubt be
emulated by more than one Ameri-
can boy now in France. Perhaps not
in the same manner, but just as eff
patriotism and thrilled with excite
ment which kept the large audience
on the tiptoe of expectation during
the entire play.

Jasmines.

Jasmines belong to the same family
as the olive, and number at least two
hundred species, OF which one-tenth, or
twenty species, are for sale in the
United States, though but one-fourth of
these species may be had in local plant
nurseries. The gem of the family is
the primrose jasmine, or Jasminum

winter months and with blossoms
larger than any other species.
