CONTRACT
CASE DRACS IN
COUNTY COURT
Little Interest to General
Public In Testimony
of Builders

In a courtroom practically filled
only with school children, the case
of lido Piest VS.. DR.. C. NJ. Rich
mond drags along with a maze of
testimony as to the details of the
construction of the defendants s
house. Mr.. Piest was on the stand
all Thursday afternoon describing
the construction of the house, how
he notified DR.. Richmond that he
must have the balance due on his
third payment, and how on Aug.
9, 1922, he stopped work on the
residence.
The witness claimed that DR..
Richmond asked for some changes
as the work progressed, but said
that DR.. Richmond's indecision as
to proposed changes interfered
with his progress in the construct
ion.
Witness said he had asked for
payments on account and been re-
fused before he stopped work.
Witness claimed he could have
finished the building within the
terms of the contract and in the
time fixed.
The cross examination by Attor-
ney SearIes was largely in rela-
ton to the details of the construc-
ton of the house.
The croSs-examination of Mr.
Piest continued through the first
hour Friday morning, being con-

COMPANY D
WINS GREAT
GAME BY 23.l2
ConnOr Subbing for Burns
Plays Sensational
Contest e'

Company D toppled star ag-
gregation of basketeers from
White River in one of the most
colorful games of the season last
night at the Armory by the score
of % to IL. In spite of the final
apparently one--sided appearance
of the score, the game was one of
the closest ever played on the
Armory surface. With Coach Cur
ley Burns out of the fray with a
wrenched ankle, Puss Connor step
ped into the breach and played a
sensational game. Two great shots
from the hands of this athlete in
the first period thrilled the fans as
they have not been thrilled this
year.
Catching a well-timed pass from
Lucky Fisk, Connor in the first
period, aimed throw at nothing
in particular over his head and the
ball settled without friction into
the goal. At the time ,Connor was
going a mile a minute past the
White River basket and it was lit
tie short of marvellous that the
Scaletown lad was able to tally.
Throughout the battle, Connor
played a stalwart, defensive game.
He was in the hottest of the scrim-
mage at all times and never SEEM
ed to tire. Time after time he
would dash into the most torrid
melees and emerge with the faith
full sphere in his hands.
Lucky Fisk was as steady as
grandfather'S clock. His especially
strong forte seems to be in the
follow-up role. Whenever st.
Johnsbury player misses a throw,
at the hoop, Fisk is always around
to take the rebound and tally the
goal. He has done this on innum-
berable occasions this year and he
seems to meet with unqualified
success practically every time. The
excitement of battle never feazes
him. Goslant and Dumas played
great defensive games in the do
mestic backtield.
First Period
1t was several minutes before
either quintet could penetrate the
Gibraltar-like def fense of the other.
Both fives managed to flick a few
hurried shots at the hoop but these
went wide of the mark. After
much manoeuvering Gubby McDer-
mott shot the big sphere to Ackey,
his right forward who was seen
cutting in fast. Ackey swept the
ball into the circlet for the initial
field goal of the evening. asa
White River at once increased
its slender lead. Ackey, in a great
individual play bounced the ball

There Is Power
Enough; Apply 1t

When an electrical engi-
neer stands in front of a great
waterfall he doesn't ask him-
self:
81 wonder if there's any
power in that fall"
What he asks himself is
this:
"How can | apply that pow
er to my needs?"
He knows there's power; he
knows it can be used; the only
question is how to use it most
effectively.
When a modern business
man surveys the field he no
longer asks himself whether
advertising pays. His question
is:
"How much can | make it
pay me?"
He knows there's power in
advertising; he knows it can
be used in the service of any
business that can serve the
public. =
His only question is exactly
how he can turn this power
most effectively to his own
particular needs.
