ceDt for the skipper and myself. The
captain OF the boat was kept busy
every minute of the day watching
from the bridge for snares and reefs
along the river, so that all the other
many offices on the boat fell TO me.
After a time 1 was able to train some
of the natives to look after the en-
gines and then 1 could give more Of
my time to the many other duties
that confronted me. I was also the
ships doctor and every day at noon

port to rae for treatment.
Fought Cannibais.
There was plenty of medical
work to be done too. for we were
constantly forced to fight with the
cannibal tribes who live along the
banks Of the river.
Some of these tribes are COM
posed of gentle, peace-loving people
but there are others very warlike by
nature and very much afraid of the
white man.
Capt Stanley was a wonderful
specimen of manhood. He was not
tall but his perfectly proportional
body was one that would command
respect at sight. He had the most
searching eyes 1 have even seen and
by using them he could force any
man, black or white, to do his bid
ding.
Every white man on the boat
had two native black boys which we
termed Buddy Boys" These boys
act as servants and are with their
master day and night II happened

with whom we had battled. who

nor of conditions there, but the
thought of visiting and seeing a new
land was the one big factor that led
him to accept the position. The Bel
gian government promised every
thing in the way of comfort and

that the capitalization of such prom

This Golf Business

Grant Rice or Jim Barnes. or

silver stymie in his mouth, was say
ing the other day that the reason
peole like to play golf is because it
teaches them 10 keep their temper.
That may be the reason Grant
Rice or Jim Barnes play golf. but it
isn't the reason that nine hundred

golf addicts have been pronounced

We have been making careful,
systematic and scientific investiga-
ton into the game of golf and it's
power to make men leave home. We
have made personal observation Of
thousands of individual cases both on
the course and in the club house and
we have reached the unalterable
and indisputable conclusion that
golf fastens itself on human beings
OF both sexes. not because it teaches
them 10 keep their tempers. but be-
cause II gives them abundant and
constantly recurring opportunities TO
lose their tempers-and get away
with IL.

YERINGTON IS
OPPONENT FOR
GAME tonight

The first opportunity this season
that has been afforded the people of
Tonopah to secure a line on the
playing ability of the local baske.-
ball team in competition with an
outside school will be furnished to-
night at the high school gymnasium
when the team from YerinEtol op
poses the boys of Tonopah.
At the time of going to press the
team from Yerington had not ar,
rived so it was impossible to find
out what the lineup Of the visitors
would be, but the team is credited
with putting up an excellent cXhibi-
ton with Reno when the two teams
met last week, and a good contest
is looked for tonight.
The team from the Tonopah high

tonight is made up as follows Hen
derson, center; Anderson and Wen
EEL, guards; Byrne and Humphrey,
forwards; Esser and David, substi-

1t is confidently expected that a
victory for Tonopah will result to-
night. Dancing will follow the
game.
