Our Cave

Ny two friends and I have q cave
near by our house. It's about ten
by twenty feet high, and can
stand up in it. We have some
skillets and pans. am the cook
and Charles is the wood cutter
and Earl is the getter. One day
Earl and l were down along the
river and Earl fell in. When he
got out he was shivering like a dog
l went with him till he got his
clothes dry. And he came back
with me to the cave. One Sunday
morning Earl, Charles and l were
down along the river and it start
ed to rain, but we were near our
cave, we went in and sat down, but
Earl lay down upon his coat. Now
it happened that little spring
came down from the pasture and
ran down over our cave and it ran

The bounce pass is used for very
short work. Small men against
tall opponents get good results. The
delivery generally calls for a feint

too much spin on it.
Not only is the bounce used as a
pass; the dribble is series of
bounces. In slow dribble, the
bounce is high. The shoulder high
bounce allows time to dodge. The
ordinary dribbles calls for bounces

A CHRISTINA CAROL

Rosemary had fallen down stairs
and broken her leg and had to be
taken to the hospital just two days
before Christmas.
Her mother knew she would have
a sad Christmas unless she got a
lot better, but her leg panied her
so she could not sleep, which was
what she needed.
Finally it was Christmas Eve.
Rosemary had been very fretful
with her leg and was wishing she
could 60 to sleep, when she heard
her favorite Holy Night, Silent
Night being sung SO beautiful she
hardly recognized it.
She listened till she fell asleep,
when she woke up in the morning
she was lots better because of such
a good sleep. (The song was sung
by one Of Rosemary's playmates.

Children Enjoy Party
at Day Nursery

BY the time your Junior gets to
you on Saturday afternoon, Decem.
Der eth, about forty boys and girls
will be having great fun at the
Christmas party which will be held
from 2 to 4 o'clock that afternoon.
These boys and girls have been
coming to the nursery all year and
staying while their mothers are
away working and they always
have good times, but this Is to be
an especially good time. There
be tree and presents and candy,
and refreshments and all sorts OF
Christmas fun. We heard a rumor
which makes us think that after
Saturday afternoon there will not
be any more cold hands. at least
not on the boys and girls who will
be guests at this party.

HANDLING THE BALL
By II. 0. (Pat) Page

by IL. ". \TdtJ d5C
The most fundamental thing in
basketball is the method of handl-
ing the ball.
The long spot pass is Is to 20
yard over head pass. The delivery
should be from the shoulder similar
to that Of on overland pitcher. The
ball rolls off the tips of the fingers
so as to give back spin. Tho
back spin makes it easier to catch.
If a long pass is underhand, it
travels in a low plane and can be
easily blocked and will also be
fumbled on account of the under
spin which makes the ball difficult
to grasp.
The side arm pass is used most
ly in cross court play and should be
made with a side step. Accuracy
can be obtained with a ten yard
pass, one or both hands being used
in delivery. The pass travels
above the waist and should be
about shoulder high.
The short pass is a 3 to 6 yard
snappy pass, about waist high.
Both hands are used in delivery
with arms fully extended. A wrist
snap will do away with the spin off

the pantry Mary went and found q

she swallowed a glass Of water,

1t was my mama, l now must say,
But her heart was light and free,
For all she had on this great earth
Was papa bold and me.
l never can forget that day,
The day my mama died.
The same day papa set sail for
France
A less peace was cruel.
The whistles blew, the bells all
rang,
Twas heard both far and near,
But my mama she was sound
asleep,
And couldn't even hear.
My papa he was happy
To think this war was won,
But little did he realize,
That his little girls heart was
stung.
Just think Of how felt, dear
friends,
With papa so far away,
And my mama she was all fixed up
To be laid In her bed Of clay.
In the cold vet earth, they laid her
And when the day was done
I had to go home without her.
And the battle for my own life was
But some one had to take pity,
And God gave me one dear friend.
It was my dear old grandma,
That will care for me to the end.
And she win always have q
welcome
In her heart know for me.
For I am only IL years old.

A SHEPARD BRYAN ECHO.

jim" Nevin, who is writing delightful new
column of comment on the editorial page of the
Atlanta Georgian, says of a recent editorial in the
Times-Recorder:
The Americus Times-Recorder of Friday last
pays generous and deserved tribute to Shepard
Bryan, of Atlanta in discussing the succession to
Judge Pardee the federal bench, and urges the
appointment of Mr.. Bryan to the vacancy.
The Americus paper advances its plea in
behalf of the Atlanta man with conf
dence and candor. 1t pays high trib-
ute to Mr. Bryan professional status and is warmly
opreciative of him as a man-vhich he is i
very sense of the word,
The Times Recorder thinks his appointment
would be graceful tribute to section full deserv
ng of recognition, and moreover-whch is of pr
mary mportance-fully in keeping with those great
traditions that do and should control these appoint
ments.
Atlantans will find themselves in cordial ac
cord with the suggestion made in the Americus
paper The President could make no more ex
-ellent selection for this dignihed and high po
aLon. Shepard Bryan is qualified wholly for the
Irace.
Nothing could give AtIantans more SINGER,

of the A,nercus paper might bear nut"

OCTOBER.

1T makes me feel sober to know that October
is Just about due at the door; her curves all
remind me of long years behind me, and short
ones that stack up before. October is ghostly,
she's saddening, mostly, with leaves falling
down from the trees, with nights that are chilly
and rains that are silly, and farewells to robins
and bees Oh, dreary October, in sadness they
robe her, her garments ashen and brown;
the year growing older and feebler and colder,
which reminds me my sun going down. Octo-
bers the token of joys that are broken; the roses
are withered. and gone; nasturtiums and asters
have met with disasters they flourish more
on the lawn 1t rains, but the water would have
to be hotter before it could nourish the heath;
it's raw and it's chilling and clammy and kill
ing and brings me a message of death. The cool
winds are signing, the wild geese are flying,
and honking like automobiles; their wide wings
are humming, they herald the coming of weather
that promptly congeals. The summers depart
ed and Autumn well started, and winter will
come with rush. the winter so yellow-then
happy the fellow who's saved up package of
cush.
