WHAT IF 1T SHOWS ON
RESURRECTION MORN?

Or suppose that it is rain
ing, OF the wind blowing?
Will these things keep folks
away from the resurrection as
they keep them away from
church? No, they will prob
ably want in on that, rain or
shine.
Some folks (they claim to
be Christians too) offer some
shoddy excuses for the neglect
of their religious duties. They
are able to perform all of
their daily tasks, but when
Sunday comes they wake up
at a late hour to find them
selves indisposed. You can't
hold a man from his business
with a steel cable, but a pa
per string will suffice to chain
him away from the place of
worship. Wonder what God
thinks about it? Rest assured
that He sees through all film.
sy excuses. "Be not deceived" "
He says, God is not mocked." "
Think it over, Christian! Is
there any real reason for your
not attending worship next
Sunday? You will be a bet.

ESTANCIA SCHOOL NEWS
HIGH SCHOOL
Estancia VS.. Mountainair.

ilS AAs AAs ~ E3AA ~ esAANN - -
basket ball teams went to
the mountain village of Noun
tainair on February II and
won two great victories from
the Mountaineers Mountain
airs). The day was perfect
for such an out door game.
More than fifty Estancia root
ers were there and the boys
and girls did not disappoint
them. The boys game was an
easy victory for Estancia,
25-10, but nevertheless was
fast and replete with spec
tacular plays. For Mountain
air, two boys did well, the tall
preacher" who played center
and one fast forward. At
least four Estancia boys
starred. Heads work at for
ward was most spectacular. A
long accurate pass by Green
was play such as is hardly
ever equalled. The most re-
markable thing was the speed
Of the entire team. The girls
played a very clear game
against a team that had evil
IDENTIFY been coached to play
the rules of the boys game.
Captain "Bee" scored the most
points. The game throughout
was very close, at no time was
either team more than two
points ahead. The final score
was seven for Estancia and six
for Mountainair. The social
entertainment in the evening
given by the M. H. S. boys
and girls was a very happy
time. From the appearances
of how chummy Estancia boys
and girls were with Mountain
air boys and girls, the follow
ing lines have been suggested:
"The bravest are the tenderest,
The loving are the daring"
Following are the line-ups:
. Boys game-Tom Hill, CEN

Major Dean, forward; Ken
