And Gave Home Team 35 to
q Victory Over Peo-
pies Academy
EXCITING GAME WAS
CHEERED BY CROWD
McHardy of Spaulding Was
High Scorer of the
Evening

One of the fastest basketball games Of
the season was staged last evening in
the Spaulding gymnasium between the
team from that school and the fast quin.
tet from the Peoples academy of Morris
vile, with Spaulding adding another
victory to her credit to the tune Of 80
to q. The game was, as usual, divided
into two Commute periods, with a 10
minute interval. It was at sos when
the whistle starting the game was blown
and the period ended at S:25, while the
second period was from S:35 to 8:55.
The ever present cheer-leaders and root
ers were out in full force and took adj
vantage of every dull moment to make
the gymnasium resound with their cheers
and songs, having their usual accom-
PIANIST in the person of Cornetist Biz.
zozero,
From the very start both teams dis
played great speed and teamwork and
also showed evidences of considerable
practice. 1t was not very long before
Spaulding Gagged the ball and, not to be
too much outdone, the visitors did the
same, The contestants seemed to take
turns in leading throughout the first pc
Rod, one moment Spaulding would be
ahead and the next minute Peoples acad-
envy would be ahead. Both teams showed
lightning speed in covering the floor and
played very good games, both offensive
and defensive. The first period ended
with Spaulding in the lead with the score
of Is to O.
The second period opened a great deal
like the first, with the exception that
both teams were fighting harder, if such
a thing were really possible, as they
both fought hard during the first period.
As fast as the visiting five would score
basket, Spaulding would also score one
and quite often two. Towards the last,
the out of town boys had a little more
luck with them and also played a little
better, but their rallying was in vain,
for the local team redoubled their efforts
and held them down Just the same. The
shooting of the Spaulding players was
superior, although the playing of the
Morrisville team was practically as good.
hcHardy and Brown were the featur-
ing players for the local team, while
Howard and Churchill starred for the
visitors. All who attended the game
were not disappointed, as it was all that
1T was promised TO be and then some.
This game should help to pull Spaulding
up little higher and put her closer in
the running Fouls were somewhat in
evidence last evening, 10 being called
during the game Ten were called on
Peoples academy and nine on Spaulding.
The highest scorer of the evening was
McHardy Of Spaulding with total of
six baskets from the floor and seven
baskets on fouls to his credit. Howard
of the visiting team gained second with
two baskets from the floor and seven
baskets on fouls. Lille of Spauldng
and Churchill Of P. A. were tied for
third place with four baskets apiece.
The usual social dance followed the
game and was held in the assembly hall.
It was omen to students and alumni Of
the school and also to the visiting play
ers
The summary of the game was as fol
lows.

THE COMING CRISIS


Inspection. of the official records
of anarchists and radicals with
whom the, Bureau of immigration
has come in contact reveals that
their three cardinal principals are:
l. No God
2. No Government.
3. No home.
They seek by these doctrines to
achieve Utopia wherein unbrldiea
license will be the keynote of So
ciety.
Dispatches from some European
cities tell us that the Bolsheviki Is
preparing for a war on Christianity,
schools, theological institutions, etc.
This is their announced purpose, ana
in some places where these outlaws
hold the whip handle they have e.
ready begun their preliminary work.
The time may come, as it was IN
the days of Nero, for conscientious
people to again gather in upper
rooms, the catacombs, on the seaside
On mountains and in silent valleys
for the purpose Of wcrshipping the
Creator.

convulsed the world fc. -cariy four

our boys "over- there" were NUT

But, as the wise man in the book,
of the Ecclesiastes says, "The race
is not always to the swift, nor the
battle to-. the strong" and before the
snow began to fly in the early fall
the dark cloud of war suddenly part

section of the statute provides for an election of directors every two years, while another section provides for an election every four years. The term of office is unmistakably fixed at three years, so the court held that the section providing for an election to be held every year must control, to carry out the scheme for three year terms, with one of the terms expiring each year
 Under this construction the direct or who was elected for a one-year term under the first election would have the tenure of his office eX- tended until his successor could be elected at the annual election held in 1920, the next election provided for. The first election provided for was in 1918, and the next in 1920, when two directors were to be elect ed, one to succeed the man who had been elected in 1918 for two years, and one to fill out the uneXpired term which would begin in 1919, and elections were thereafter to be held each year By this reconciling the conflict in the statute. the court up- held the construction given it by the circuit judge, and affirmed the judgment.

APPOINTMENTS RUN
 ONLY TO ELECTION
SUPREME COURT MAKES RULING IN ST. FRANCIS lEvEE BOARD CASE-STATUTE BADLY WRIT TEN.

Little Rock, Feb. 25.-The Arkansas Supreme Court yesterday affirmed the decision of St. Francis circuit court in the case of A. D. Mcdaniel and R. l.. Berry against Sam Ashworth and T. H. Tucker. The plaintiffs were appointed by the governor in 1917 and 1918 as directors of the St Fran cis Levee District for St. Francis county. They brought the suit to obtain possession of the offices.
 An act was passed by the legisla- ture in 1917 providing that after that time the directors of the levee dis trict should be elected by the peo- pie instead of being appointed by the governor. The plaintiffs alleged that it was not the purpose of the act to disturb the scheme of appoint- ments by the governor until the first election provided for was held in June, 1918 and that their terms should continue until the time ap- pointed, while the appellees contend that the appointees could hold office only until their successors were elected as provided by the statutes.
 The latter contention was sustain ed by the supreme court, which salo that it was the unmistakable idea of the legislature to remove the ap- pointing power of the governor to i'm those positions, and to place it in the hands of the land owners of the district
 The statute as drawn providing for the election of the directors is con flicting and impossible of perform ance, the court held, but it was possible to discover the legislative will in the matter, and that the statute should be reconciled to meet of the law makers. One
