Waitsburg high schools basket

gar Kittens" last Friday night and,
although completely lost on the large
college gymn floor, held the frosh
down to 21-11. This put confidence
into them and when they lined up
against our team Saturday night they
were sure of winning. The game
started rather slowly, with Cannon
caging two long ones. The local

curities.
The habit of wasting materials is
common among rich and poor alike.
The school is one of the best places
to bring the habit of saving ma
terials into practice by using all
school supplies carefully. At home
the elimination of waste in food, fuel
and lights will save more than you
thought would be saved. BY care in
the use of the small things such as
tooth paste, soap, talcum powder,
shoe polish, pencils, ETC., the ex-
pense of buying them so often would
be saved. System in the care of ma
terials as putting clothes in drawers
or on hangers and arranging the
school books in your desk will save
some unnecessary expense. Develop
the spirit of conserving public prop
erty. When public property is de-
stroyed, some one has to pay for it.
Everyone should feel that it is part
of their duty to their country to help
conserve public property.
The person who has ability to save
materials is more valuable to his
own business or someone elses bust
ness than person who hash t

Government Savings
CBy Percy Severance, S-B)

Thrift should be the watchword
of every nation although majority
OF the pople in the United States do
not practice it. The benefits of
thrift can be derived from the proper
use of time, money and materials.
The person who expects to be sue
cessful in life must know the true
value of time Time is really money
but the waste of time is more gem
eral than anything else. Thrift in
time applies to school as well as any
other line of work. In school the
wisest way TO get the most out of a
subject without wasting time is not
to spend a certain number of min.
utes on subject but to get the most
out of those minutes. Many stu.
dents who have the best of intentions
may be unknowingly wasting time
by not getting the most out of their
time. All leisure time should be
used for some duty or opportunity
that rises.
The saving of money is habit not
hardship. One is never too young
or too old to start saving.
We should save money for several
purposes: to meet immediate obi.
cations, to meet future obligations
to get an education, to gain personal
and financial independence, to gel
comforts of life. which are not posi-
PIE without something ahead, to gel
pportunities which come to those
20 have capital, and to make pro.
zion for old age, sickness and

BIG EATERS GET
 KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take Salts at First Sign of Bladder Irritation or Back
 ache.

The American man and woman must guard constantly against kidney trouble because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kid, neys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and general decline in health.
 When your kidneys feel like Jumps of lead, your back hurts or the urine Is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous speHs,, acid stomach or you have rhetRHatism when the weather is bad, getF from your pharmacist about four ounces of lad Salts: take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made frolr the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stim ulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in the urine so 1t no longer is source of irritation, thus ending bladder disorders.

 Urges Joining Hands
 "I know there have been strong party differences in Porto Rico as to how governmental affairs should be conducted, and while I do not question the absolute patriotism and sincerity of any party or party lead CT, believe that we could all have a better understanding of affairs, gen erally, if we will only grant each other the same unquestioned motives we exact from others. In other words, let us join hands across the chasm of party division and put aside party discord and try to forget our dissensions of the past uphold patriotism and work for the one great common cause, namely, for the well-being and up-building of Porto Rico.
 Today you are as much a part of the United States as any sovereign state of our beloved American Union. While serving as your Governor and trying to be equally fair to all, hope you will understand that I shall steadfastly uphold and stand for our national government first. In the prophetic language of President Harding, I shall stand for America First"
