Money means nothing, for money

you happy, nor can it give you the
feelings of qualification as the let

millions of things that money can

ly Was shakespeare"

To those who take. argumentative
pleasure in the conviction that Bacon
wrote Shakespeare, the introduction
of yet another candidate for that dis
tinction must be rather annoying. Will
liam Stanley, sixth earl Of Derby, is
the latest "real Shakespeare" discov-
cred and produced by Prof. Abel LIE
Frank, French scholar, who claims
that only an Englishman who had lived
in France could have written Loves
Labor Lost" and that William Stanley
was the only contemporary English
man who fits the bill; also that there
was an instinct for the theater In the
Stanley family, and that William is
known to have written poetry. The
argument seems to be about as COM
plete as that of the person who found
a passage in a letter from Sir Philip
Sidney which mentions "Will, my
Lord Of Leicester's jester" and, not
being able to find out just where
Shakespeare was, and what he was do
ing at the time, decided that he was
probably "my Lord of Leicester's
jester" himself-Christian Science

The Rhone's upper stretches are placid
and already are used extensively for
barge navigation, but near Marseilles
the stream is far too turbulent for
commerce. A range of hills had pre-
vented the construction of canal in
days gone by. Now, with France en-
ergized by the war and with the neces-
sity for the canal emphasized there
by, the tunnel is being cut and the
canal will soon be opened. The work
was begun in 1911-12, and has been
continued through the war; By this
canal and links already available,
barges can be sent from the Mediter-
ranean to the English channel.

New Point School Notes.

The Forest City High School came
over Monday evening and brought
their two basket bail .eans, Tor u re-
turn game with the New Point High
School. The first game was between
the girls Of the two schools. A very
last and interesting game resulted.
The score at the end oil the ilrst hair
was 10 to IL in favor of New Point,
and ut the end Of the second half was
tie, Is to Is. In playing off the tie
New Point was able to score in very
short time, making the score IL TO 20.
in their favor.
The game between the boys was
also very fast and somewhat rough
The New Point boys were unable IN
the first half to get started properly
and the score at the end of the ha,i
was 10 to 2 in Forest City's favor
However, during the second half oui
forwards began TO score and kept II
up steadily, passing the visitors in
the last minute Of play-the final
score being ~ to 20, IN ,avor Of New
Point.
The Forest City teams were accom-.
panied by Supt. Warren Brett, Mrs
Everds and a considerable number Of
rooters.
Owing to the fact that our boys
have been handicapped this year to q
great extent, and that this was oul
first game this season on the home
court, they are to be congratulated or
the showing that they made.
The High School has planned I,
hold a declamatory contest to deter
mine who shall represent the school
on Educational Day. This is to bt
between the girls Of the school.
The boys are also planning to hold
a debate with the Fillmore High
School.

Hope to Save Millions
in Fires by Breaking the
Matches While in Flame

When match breaking becomes a
national habit $50,O00.000 year will
be saved.
BY breaking matches--that is. Of
course, matches one uses In lighting
cigar, cigarette. pipe or gas stove
many fires that annually cause Il loss
of approximately $35,00O,0OO will be
eliminated, according to a statement
by fire prevention authorities. And
to spread the gospel Of breaking
matches and preventing fires, nation
wide picture campaign of education Is
to be started.
under existing conditions Ameri-
cas- fire losses are increasing year by
year." said Harvey Levey, educational
director Of film company that is to
produce the pictures. "There is only
one way 1t can be outdone-that is by
education. The fire departments are
doing the best they can. Until the
people are educated to back them up
America will continue to pay--not
only In money but in lives, and that
must be placed first"
The campaign will be put on n Co
operation with efforts Of the bureau
of forestry OF the department of az
rlculture. Films showing every phase
of destruction by fire and Of methods
to defeat heavy fire losses will be ex-
hlbited In theaters in every commu-
nifty In the country, Levey said.
The first essential, Levey said, Is the
breaking Of lighted matches before
they are thrown away.
