Fast Contest.
THIRTY-TWo TWENTY ONE

The Nebraska Wesleyan quintet,
basket ball champions for the last five
years of the Nebraska intercollegiate
athletic association, were outplayed
Thursday by Coach Tommy Mills
Creighton basket ball flippers. The
score was 81 to 81.
The Creighton tossers had the bet
ter of the argument in all stages of
the contest They excelled in team
work and were almost perfect in bas-
ket shooting.
While the Methodists played a hard
game, luck in the pinches when they
had opportunities to shoot baskets,
seemed against them. In fact the
basket seemed to be an elusive target
for their flips.

AT last work has begun on the
road from Pageland to the state
line. For years this has needed
to be done, but not until now
has there seemed to be an imme
date prospect of a good road
leading north from Pageland.
The county gang has been NOV.
ed and is now at work straight
ening this road and shaping it.
Private subscriptions have been
raised, and the work IS expected
to move steadily forward until
a good road is built, which
means that the old road will be
widened, Strengthened, rounded,
surfaced and smoothed. The
subscriptions thus far raised will
probably not be enough to com
plete the work. but if is believed
that many others will join in
when they see that the work is
sho huff going to be done.

Ahead in Divorces Granted
Monroe Journal.

Monroe Journal.
Poor South Carolina! Even
Tucker admits she occupies the
lowest position in the glory of
the States column. but consoles
himself with the thought that
North Carolina is nosed from
the bottom place by his native
State. There is one exception,
the Pageland editor says, and
that is the pure food law, which
safeguards the health of horses
and mules. Yet there is another,
and it is wonder Tucker hadn't
thought of it. North Carolina
leads in the number of divorces
granted annually, while South
Carolina makes a clean record
in this respect each year. The
South Carolina divorce law, you
know, was repealed in 1878, and
since then the Palmetto state
people have been coming across
the line to have the bilding ties
severed.
We like to rile Tucker occa-
sionally, as we are always re
warded by something good from
his paper He went after us in
grand style in the last issue of
his paper on the South Carolina
pure food law.
