on the Lynden floor by scores of 35
to 25 and &c to %, respectively. The
Meridian second boys team, howey-
er, lost to the Lynden opponents by
a score of 9 to 35. The girls game
was especially interesting and hard
fought, since the score stood % to
% at the end of the second period.
An extra five-minute period accorded
the teams brought the scores up each
two points, again being a tie. The

the victory of one point to the Mer-
idian girls. when a field basket was
annexed against the Lynden girls

25 and 26.

gaining their stride after the first
Ave minutes of play and holding the
opposing aggregation to about an ev-
en-up match. A lead of ten points
made by the Meridian quintet dur
ing the opening five minutes, how
ever, was not recovered by Lynden.
The score wavered from eight to ten
points lead for the consolidated dis
trict throughout the two periods of
play.

HALLOWs ZEN AT CLINIC

The entire medical staff Of the
Willmar Hospital and Clinic, the
corps Of nurses and the members Of
the office department numbering 40,
joined together in an unusually sue
cessful Hallow cen function Monday
evening in the reception rooms of the
Clinic Office building. The hostesses
were Mrs House. the Misses Leah
and Bella Huot, Amanda Erickson, AL
ma yMartinson and Marie Fiske. The
rooms had been weirdly trimmed and
decorated to suit the ghostlyl occa-
sion. The visitors from the moment
they stepped into the entrance to the
rooms were subjected to the most
trying of spiritual tests. The hostess
es had worked diligently and planned
carefully to make the path of. the
visiting guests as 'spooky" as posi-
BILE. The laboratory cranial collec-
ton was used to good purpose, osteo-
logical specimens confronted victims
in the corridors while white gowned
spirits passed noiselessly among the
guests.
All in attendance were costumed
with a variety of apparel. Miss Leah
Huot was awarded first honors, pos
sessing the most attractive disguise.
Albin' Carlson gained initial honors
among the men for the best masquer-
ade.
Light refreshments were daintily
served but with the spectral air alb
out it. Cards were played and dance
enjoyed.
