RAY OVERWHELMED
 BY FLORENCE TEAM

FLORENCE. Feb. 5-The Florence high school basketball team closed the basketbal season Friday afternoon by defeating the Ray high school team by the score of S4 to 19. While the game was not very close. it was inter esting throughout. The Ray boys never had chance all through the game. Florence piled up ten points before Ray was able to make q basket. The first half of the game ended with score of 46 to 9 in favor of Florence.
 The second half was a repetition Of the first, and it soon became d game of wondering just how many baskets Florence would be able to make before the game would end. When the final whistle blew and the dust of battle had cleared away the final score was S4 to 19 in favor of Florence.
 The Ray team and their coach are to be complimented on their good work. This is the first year that Ray ever had team. Their playing and the spirit which they showed was the best that has been seen on the local court this season. V. Easton and w Bray played the best game for Ray
 The feature of the game was the all-around playing of the Florence team Capt. Martin Baldwin and Key naldo Morales shooting baskets from all angles of the court. Clarence Knight also played a fine game at guard. The Florence team was minus two of their star players. Ray Smith who played a short time. was unable to play a hard game on account or his injured shoulder, while Rufus Bor- ing was not in the game on account of sickness.

FIRE DOES DAMAGE
Sparks from the chimney at lthe
home of o. X. Purdy in West Audi
bon set fire to the roof of his house
early last Sunday morning. The
neighbors rushed TO his assistance
at the earliest possible moment. but
the fire was gaining Roadway SO the
department was called. Prompt help
by others made it possible to get the
flames under control until the fire
department arrived on the scene.
The chemicals were put into use and
the fire Immediately extinguished.
The thermometer registered ten
below and II was a difficult task to
fight a fire. However, the only
damage resulting was that OF the
shingles on the south side of the
house.
Much concern was felt I, for Mrs.
Purdy and the five days old baby
who were In the home. but all are
getting along nicely though badly
frightened.
Mr.. and Mrs. Purdy request the
Republican to thank the many
neighbors as well as the fire depart
ment for the assistance given them.
for without their help they might
have lost their entire home.

CHRISTMAS SAVING
WILL BE RELEASED IN ALGIERS
NEXT WEEK. THRIFTY AL
GIERS PEOPLE ARE PRE-
PARED FOR XMAS
PURCHASES.

Through interviews with the man
ayers of the three branch banks in
Algiers, the Herald is able to an
nounce very authoritatively that
more than $4,000 will be sent out
in Christmas Saving Checks next
week to the thrifty A1giers people
who have prepared themselves to
make their Xmas purchases without
cutting into their regular monthly
allowance and earnings.
The distribution of $4,000 by
our local people means much to the
merchants and it shows a consider
able wisdom in the practice in es-
tablishing savings accounts.
A few years ago, before the saw
ings banks started this method of
encouraging savings for Christmas
purposes, the amount of money ex-
pended for presents was considerable
less than now.
Besides offering substantial edu-
cation in thrift, these saving amounts
also help in distributing happiness
throughout the Yuletide.
