APPRENTICES WIN FROM II. S.

In what was probably the best foot
ball game played in Winslow this year
The Santa Fe Apprentices won from
the Winslow High school by a score
of 13 to 6 last Tuesday evening The
feature of the game was an 80yard
run for touch down by Saracino for
the Apprentices, who then kicked
goal The Apprentices made their
second touch down in the second
quarter by line bucks and forward
pass, Pribble putting the ball over
goal was missed. The High school
received in the second half, and by
consistent line bucks made their only
touch down. Goal was missed. In
the fourth quarter neither goal was
seriously threatened and the game
ended with the ball in the High
schools possession on her own ter
ritory. A post season game will
probably be played between the two
teams on December 4th.

A PROCLAMATION
Designating Thursday. November 25
1920, as Thanksgiving Day

Three hundred years ago, ON the
bleak New York shore there gathered
a band of Pilgrims. to render thanks
to the Almighty for the harvest that
had been gathered. The day OF
Thanksgiving thus inaugurated had
annual observance within the north
western American colonies and has
had national recognition since 1868
It is based upon the harvest festival
common to all peoples, day select
I'd especially for the offering to Omni-
potence of thanks for the natural
bounties through which life is sus-
.ained The Puritans gave thanks that
heir reaping had assured food for
he coming winter, and that their
lives had been spared in their strug-
giles with the surrounding Indians.

extraneous reasons, their products
are finding slack demand in a time
when high maintenance costs still
are known. But, beneath this sur
face showing, can be found much for
which gratitude can be expressed. For
the past year our State has enjoyed
peace in fullest measure. Industrial
disturbance has been unknown, nor
has there been loss by epidemic or
storm. Mines and farms and fac
tories have been operated without
hinderance. Development has been
unchecked and faith in the States
future never was stronger nor more
firmly based. Our people, with serene
confidence in the destiny of their Ma
ton and in their own abilities, are
turning toward accomplishment Of
their new tasks and are restoring the
balance the war had unsettled.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The football boys met their first
defeat this season on the Flagstaff
Normal gridiron last Saturday. The
Normal boys won the game in the first
half. They got our fellows on the
run and kept them going until the
end of the first half In the beginning
of the second half the local boys raj
lied and gave promise of catching up
with the Normal, but the resistance
proved to be too stubborn. Through
out the latter part of the game each
side held on with bull dog grip It
was a clean game throughout and the
High school boys realized they were
beaten fairly. They are preparing
however, to give the story different
ending this Saturday. The people are
assured of the fastest game of tho
season tomorrow Tickets sold in the
Prescott game are good for this one.
A big crowd should see this final local
game Of the season. The boys will
go to Gallup for the Thanksgiving
game.

-One CO the newest and most effec-
