vIRooUA HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
Viola Makes Unfair Charges-Cham-
pionship Clashes-New Society

Five of cur returned soldier boys
are in attendance at the Viroqua High
School, taking advantage of the SOL
der educational bonus. They were
all overseas, all in the 32nd Division
and saw active service at the front.
Their names are Paul Garin, Graydon
Slack, Lloyd Parr and Gerald Smith
and Fred Thompson.
Wednesday afternoon the first
game of the class championship games
was played between the Freshmen
and Juniors The result was an over
whelming victory for the Juniors with
score of 10 to 2. The next game
on Thursday afternoon was between
the Sophomores and Seniors and was
more evenly matched. The score was
z to 4 in Favor of the Seniors. The
conclusive game was on Friday after
noon between the two victors, the
Juniors and Seniors. The Juniors
won with score of 10 to 10.
The Boys Websterian has been re-
organized and meetings are to be held
on Wednesday evenings of alternating
weeks. The second meeting is to be
held on Wednes day of this week An
interesting program will be presented
at each meeting.

but the folks at Viroqua showed US a
few kinks in the game in the art of
using the umpire to your own advan-
tage" We did not use the umpire to
our own advantage because the UNI
pire that Viroqua chose was refused
by Viola and Viola chose her own
umpires out of the spectators gather
ed on the grounds. Also they stated
that the umpire, by giving walks and
calling men safe on bases. forced in 10
runs in 4 innings. Now who ever saw
or heard of an umpire, who even by
the rankest of decisions could force
in that number of runs in innings,
or even in a whole game. No sense to
your arguments, at all, Viola.

of the neighbors were surprised on
getting home to fined different kind
of food than they had for dinner.
Some had nothing left. We think it
must be the work of boys for a joke,
mixing up things in the cars so if any
one is short you will probably find
your things at your neighbours. Ben

PERTINENT TALKS BY PERTINENT PEOPLE

Of marriage-young women even

more independence, more money,
and a safe covering for further love
affairs.
1t Is thus shamelessly exploited
by countless women for their own
selfish ends, and men are at their
mercy.
Women are particularly clever at
obeying the eleventh commandment
and a woman whose reputation is
a scandal may emerge from the Di-
vorce Court with a halo OF picture

live her own life at her injured
husbands expense
II marriage ceases to he the
foundation of the family and be
comes a career Of self-indulgence
for women, it is doomed and home
life one OF the secrets OF England's
strength, will be lost.
The provident and wise reputa
ton Of the family in accordance
with the means OF the parents and
the physical strength OF the moth
er is one thing, the selfish evasion
OF motherhood is quite another, and
it is the latter that is threatening
England.
Faithfulness may be no more an
inherent quality of women than OF
men, but faithless women are 9
greater danger to the race.
Faithlessness in women is born
not so much OF passion, as in men
out of vanity, love of excitement
and lack OF their natural DISPOSE
ton.

The most striking Characteristic
OF the 1000 divorce cases that are

is the fact that the petitioners are
chiefly men. Freedom for women
has meant apparently faithlessness;
faithlessness, too, when one might
have expected the lightest love to

II is a farce TO suggest that the
prevailing laxity of manners re-
vealed in contemporary divorce
court proceedings are unaccompan-
led by laxity OF morals, however
speciously it may be argued by el9-
quent counsel.
The truth is that now that women
can avoid their primitive vocation
of child bearing and are able u in

of their morality. fear OF conse-
