new officers Wednesday evening be-
fore a large crowd of neighbors and
their friends. The ceremonies were
in charge of District Organizer c. e..
Horton who came from Spokane es-
pecially for this purpose and the new
ritualistic installation was worked
out without a hitch and was the OBJ
iect of many complimentary COM
ments Mr.. Horton took occasion
to compliment the local camp on the
good work it is doing and said that
the fact that they had invested $500
IN Liberty Bonds had brought much
good advertising to the city of Pull
man and the order in general
The installation ceremonies were
followed by a dance and very en-
jCyable evening was spent
Next Wednesday evening there
will be initiation and seven candi-
dates will be led through the forest.

ONLY ONE MAN LEFT OF
LAST YEARS CHAMPS
Four Members of Varsity Basket Ball
Team Have Joined COlOrs--First
Practice Wednesday Evening

With only one man left from last
years champion varsity squad, Coach
j. f. Boiler Wednesday evening
started his basket ball men on the
two weeks of intensive training that
will precedc the opening of the col
lege season. Captain Albert SOren-
team answered the first call for train
ing, and that none of the other mem
bers of the varsity quintet will be on
hand for later practice is proved by
a glimpse at the State College "honor
roll" which shows the other four in
the service of the government.
Bob Moss, forward, is taking train
ing at the radio school at Harvard
fitting himself for government serv-
ice. Ivan Price, his mate at the for
ward position last year, is a member
of the marine corps, stationed at
Mare Island. Roy Boiler, center
will try for a commission at the third
officers reserve training camp, to
open at Camp Lewis Saturday. Cope
land, guard, is at San Diego, having
enlisted in the aviation corps.
The squad of 80 men which has re-
sponded includes several Freshmen
of high school experience but the
chances for team that will compare
with that of last year are remote in
deed.
The seasons basket ball schedule
is as follows:
Jan. 1S-19-Whitman at Pullman.
Jan. 23-24-Montana at Pullman
Feb. Idaho at Pullman.

RARE OPPORTUNITY
TO BUY A PIANO

The highest honors awarded in the
piano industry mark the sale of / 4
Hobart NJ Gable pianos to the Wash
ngton State College Of Pullman by
the Miller-VanAusdle-H Hoffman Co.
of Spokane. The sale was made after
careful investigation on the part of
the music department and because of
wide experience in Judging piano
values. The Hobart NJ. Cable piano
has been used by the college for a
number of years and has given the
best satisfaction of any of the num-
erous high grade pianos used.
The Miller-Van Ausdle- Hoffman
Co. is the only piano house of the
Northwest selling strictly high grade
pianos at a low price. Their policy
is to give the best values possible and
this is accomplished by low selling
expense and not charging a big
profit.
In making shipment of the IA
pianos to the college from the factory
it was necessary to include five more
as the freight on the 9 would be no
more than on the 4 ordered. These
five were included and are now in
the room formerly occupied by the
Golden Rule store in the Jackson
block, where they will be placed on
sale and sold to the first five who
call Also a number of other high
grade pianos-taken is as part pay
ment on the Hobart NJ. Cable pianos
such as Chickering's, Fischer, KIM
ball, etc, will be placed on sale and
sold, and judging by the prices quot
ed elsewhere in this paper such as
$138, $167, $17S, etc, and at easy
terms, too, there is no excuse for any
Pullman home to be without a piano.
The AIiller-Van Ausdle- Hoffman
Co, and especially Mr.. Miller. who is
in charge of the sale, together with
Mr.. Watts from the Hobart NJ. Gable
factory, extend a special invitation to
all music loving people to call and
see the pianos on sale and get ac-
quainted. You will find them at the
Jackson block.

ate action along the same line.
