Basketball Tournament will be held in
River Falls. Eight high schools will
take part. these schools having the
best records in this section of the
state: Clear Lake, Cumberland, Elm
wood, Hudson, New Richmond, 0sce-
ola, Prescott and st. Croix Falls. The
winner will represent this section in
the final tournament to be held at
Madison. The tournament will begin
Thursday afternoon, March 10, when
the preliminary games will be played
The four winners will play double
header Friday morning at 1890. The
finals will be played Friday evening
at 500.
New Richmond is the only team that
has not lost a game in this district,
but since she defeated Hudson by only
A points Friday "a close contest be-
tween the two may be counted on.
Two other winning teams are Elm
wood and Cumberland Cumberland
has twice won the tournament unex-
pectedly, and some are looking for
repetition Of this next week. Of the
teams from Polk county-0sceola and
St. Croix Falls-neither has been de-
feated in its own territory, but since
they have not met tie teams in this
section. it is not known how they COM
pare in strength with them.
This tournament is one of the big
advertising features of the Normal,
since the young people who come here
represent the high schools of this
section of the state and are, most of
thea, possible student material, so the
support and cooperation, financial
and otherwise, of the citizens of Riv-
er Falls is most desirable.

University Boys Take Lead in Movement of Prime
 Importance

PHILADELPHIA, April 4.-,Univer. sity of Pennsylvania boys have taken the lead in a movement which eCono. mists agree is one of prime import. ance for the financial and mental welfare of America. They are aiding to educate both foreign and native born residents of Philadelphia in sound principles of personal finance thrift and safe and profitable invest ment.
 These workers have realized that instruction in these subjects without concrete practice and example is often without effect and many of them are making regular canvassing trips throughout the more densely populated districts of the city, induc, ing the purchase of government say ings securities, such as savings stamps and savings certificates. Reg ular trips are made to encourage the regular laying aside of a certain portion of each weeks earnings and the canvasser travels from door to door, overlooking no opportunity.
 The results of this work have been most helpful and satisfactory and have been reflected strongly in the attitude of those addressed, both in the purchase of securities and the piling up of saving funds.
 In connection with this work, Charles O. Wright, general secretary of the Young Mems Christian Asso- citation of the University of Pennsyl- vania, writes to William Mather Lewis, director of the savings di, vision of the treasury:
 q should like to tell you in just a word, something of the work that the Christian Association of the University of Pennsylvania is doing in the sale of thrift stamps and treasury savings stamps.
 "We have a humber of students who volunteer for work in our uni. versity settlement house, which is conducted by the Christian Associa, tion. A number of these men go throughout the more thickly populat- ed districts of the city from door to door selling the stamps.
