Holland Latest
With CHALLENGE
For Davis Trophy

LONDON, Feb. 26--Holland has en-
tered challenge for tho Davis Cup,
now held by Australasia, 1t was an
nounced to-day by the Lawn Tennis
Association.
The names Of the prospective players
are not yet available in London, but
1t Is believed that two we'll known
Dutch players, Van Lennep and Scheu-
rerleef, are almost sure to be included
in the team If the challenge be 40
cepted
The decision Of Holland to make
try for the Davis Cup will come as
distinct surprise to followers Of lawn
tennis In this country, but it will also
be regarded as yet another indication
OF the remarkable growth Of interest
in the game. Holland has never be-
fore competed in these international
matches, although among her best
players there are several who measure
fairly close to, our FIRST ten" in play
ing skill.
1t is probable that the Dutch team
will meet France, the British Isles or
Belgium in one of the preliminary
matches, since these nations are so
situated as to make much travelling nm
necessary.

Reports from Australia and New Zca-

that far side OF the globe are making
supreme efforts to boom the game as

planned, and played, in every section
that can boast a court, and new play
ers Of promise are being developed
rapidly.
Now 1t is England that is rising to
the Importance of the occasion. From
come reports of tremendous activity,
presagiAg the greatest season in the
sport since the days before the World
War. An underlying cause for this
revival Of interest in England is the
proposed visit to that country of a
team from the United States to com

According to Brookes, the ENGLISH

A FINE SHOWING

The Annual Financial report of the
Winslow School District No. 1 ap-
)ears in this issue Of the Mail. 1t
should be read by every taxpayer in
Winslow. 1t shows that on July /,
1870, the end Of the fiscal year, that
III of the obligations of the school
district have been met and there still
'emains a credit balance of $19665.
In other words the district is entire
y out of debt and starts the year with
clean slate
During the year 893 pupils were
handled at cost of $6038 per pupil
This is certainly a reasonable figure
md will compare favorably with any
other district in the state.
OF this number 1856 were in the
grades and 107 in the high school.
Thirty teachers, school nurse. four
'anitors, an attendance officer and a
clerk were employed.
Deducting the deficit which is not
proper charge against this years
business $53,926.87 were spent to
maintain the district this year. Of
this amount $41,O1O.40 were spent for
salaries. Therefore 76 per cent of
the money spent this year went for
salaries, School authorities agree
that rs per cent of a properly balanc-
ed budget should be for salaries and
25 per cent for other expenses.
More complete details or any fur
ther information will be cheerfully
furnished at the office of the Board
Of Education in the Washington
