 Billy felt he had cause to be down- hearted, and refused to be reused, for was it not bad enough to have a mere cat spit at you, let alone your own adopted father and champion desert you for the foe?
 But Iistenl

The work Of retaliation for the long Imprisonment being completed when the young woman fell their prey,they turned heels and fled, seek ing sofety.

Cascade Sanitarium Committee Ar
ranging for Meeting to Inaug-
urate Campaign.

The Commercial Club committee
having in charge the arrangements
for providing Leavenworth combin.
ed hospital and sanitarium, have ar
ranged to hold a meeting Friday eve
ming, March 81, at the X. P. Hall, to
which delegates from the different
lodges, churches and industries have
been invited, with the idea of formu-
lating stock-selling campaign to f.
nance the institution.
1t is probable that an organizer
from Seattle will be present at this
meeting and take charge of the sell
ing campaign.
People throughout this district as
well as those in town seem to be will
ing to aid in every way possible in
securing a sanitarium at Leaven-
worth and there is no doubt that
funds will be forthcoming and the in
stitution built if a proper organizer
is secured to have charge of the dis
tribution of stock.

II. S. BOYS CLOSE SEASON.

Last week the High School Boys
Basketball season was brought to a
close. From a nucleus of three mem
bers of last years team, and the best
the second team had, a fairly strong
team was developed While our
team was not of championship caliber.
it registered a defeat against every
team it met on the home floor with
the exception of Wenatchee It was
impossible to get return date with
them, although several attempts were
made. Not until quite late in the
season was it possible to get the prop
er passing and shooting under way. If
it We're possible to keep the same
team intact for two or three years,
wonderful results might be obtained
easily. On the other hand, basketball
stars are not trained over night, nor
in several nights. Considering the
basketball experience of the high
school material, the work of the team
was above the average. In order to
develop a championship team three
things are essential: good coaching
experienced material. and proper sup
port. The boys have worked hard and
lived up to the training rules the best
they knew how. Much new material
was uncovered during the second
games. This material will be avail
able next season and will do much to
replace the players graduating this
sUring. Small floors had a prominent
place in the defeats away from home
The team won three games out ot
seven, scoring 1913 points against the
opponents 157; 81 field baskets to op-

SURPRISED HER FOLKS.

Margaret, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. Fredrickson, living on the FL
lott ranch, recently surprised her
parents, brothers and sisters by an
nouncing her marriage, which took
place last October in Everett, to Mr..
Richard Dillon of Winton.
Margaret had been an operator for
the Great Northern Railway Co. and
was stationed at Winton for about
four years, but after the automatic
block system was completed she
worked at other points as relief op-
orator until few weeks ago, being
at home at times and then away as
her services were demanded. Mr.
Dillon has ranch near Winton
where they will eventually make their
home, but temporarily they will live
with Mrs. Dillon's sister, Mrs. H
Sederquist at Wenatchee.

SkOOkUM PACKERS ELECT.

The Skookum Packers association
held its postponed annual meeting
last Thursday and elected: I. H.
Logue, president; c. W. White, first
vice presient; A. E. Munson, second
vice president; Miss Grace Lanphere,
secretary-treasurer; J. A. Warman,
general manager, and c. W. White. A.
F. Munson, J. w. Terry, F. H. Phipps,
b. W. Johnson and P. NJ. Martin, ex-
ecutive committee.
A resolution was passed providing
for the disbursement of $4,000 of the
assets to the shipping units in pro-
portion as this sum has been paid in.
The Seattle advertising office was or
dered discontinued, thus centralizing
the work of the Skoollum Packers
association at Wenatchee. Disburse-
ment Of the $4,000 fund it is be-
lieved, indicates a change in the ad-
vertising policy and the intention of
the growers to spend less for this pur-
pose.
According to a member of the as
sociation, who is also a member of
the new United Apple Growers. the
United Apple Growers concern will
be abandoned and no attempt made by
this organization to use the Skookum
brand. The members of the Skookum
packers have until May / to COM
plete their cancellation as members
and those not completing cancellation
will ship through the Skookum asso-
citation as last year. No unit, so far
as known, has completed cancellation.

PLUMP WOMEN
DEF FEATED BY
ANTI FATS
Wilson Creek High Girls Go Down to
Defeat at Hands of Our High
School Girls.

The women staged an interesting
show at the Gymnasium last Saturday
evening in a game between-well the
| fats and the leans. TIE fats went
down to defeat, the game winding up
in a wild scramble, deserving, per-
haps, to be chronicled at length, but
somehow the writer does not feel that
he can take the same liberties vouch-
safed in narrating and commenting
upon the vanities of bunch of men.
The plump women were; Mrs. A.
c. Town, captain; Mesdames B. H.
Bryan, L. j. Nelson, Mary A. Adams,
Grace Hitchcock, A. Hetherington, W.
S. Wheeler, H. G. Applegate, H. P.
Cooper and VIM. Douglas. They
demonstrated that they are still
young and active and the amount of
hard going they withstood indicated
that our women folks are far from be-
ing in an enfeebled condition.
The leans were: Mrs. Roy Holmes,
captain; Mesdames Frank Hennessey,
Theo. Paine, B. X. Brewer, r. J.
Smith, Herman Franklin, Frank Han
over, Guy Wheeler, Jas Corbett and
c. 0. Neeley. The leans We're, many
of them, very fast, though they were
held down to four scores by the
plumps. some of whom were not slow
on their feet and had unexpected
staying power.
The scores were made by Mrs. Roy
Holmes and Mrs Frank Hennessey.
The game by the high school girls
was good one, but the visitors were
outclassed and never had a chance to
win, though they were given the de-
cision in the first game between these
two teams, played at Wilson Creek
some weeks ago. The visiting team
had some good players and fought
valiantly, but for quickness and pre-
cision they were wholly outclassed.
The score was % to 10.
And the fans are sorry to know that
the basket ball season has finally
closed. Basket ball has furnished the
people of the city and surrounding
district considerable number of in
teresting evenings during the winter.
1t is a great game with plenty of
action and thrilling incidents and
when winter comes again the old
crowd will be found just out of
bounds, waiting for the whistle to
start the ball.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOL AND THE
DEMAND OF THE TINE.
Ry VIM. MCINTOSH

Progressive communities through
out the country are placing other
grave responsibilities on public school
authorities. 1t is even now contended
that the body is more important than
the mind which usde to be regarded
as the sole concern of the school, the
care of the body being left entirely to
the parent Here apain the parent
has neglected his duty and society is
insisting that the school shall do what
the parents are neglecting to do. The
care of neglected teeth, adenoids, de-
fective eyes and ears, stopped should
ers, fiat chests, tuburcular tendencies
and innumerable other ailments is be-
ing placed on school authorities
These responsibilities are not incur
red from desire for more work and
trouble on the part of the teachers
and superintendent, but public opin-
ion is demanding that the younger
generation be given fair chance. and
if parents neglect their duty the COM
munity proposes TO see that the child
shall not suffer if assistance and relief
can be extended. The school is the
available agency for this particular
work, so in the cities we have a reg
ular corps of dentists. doctors nurses.
and physical directors, under the con-
troll of the school authorities. caring
for the unfortunate and guiding them
towards health and physical effici-
ency. To many of us this NAV seem
an intolerable interference with indi-
vidual liberty. If we all did our duty
il would be. But when parents ne
glect their duty society claims the
right to step in and remedy the re-
Sulting injustice. The old law held
that the sins of the fathers should be
visited upon the children. Modern so
ciety says, mot if we can prevent il"
The new view is that childish inno-
cense shall not suffer for parental ig-
norance or pervisity when the suffer
ing can be ayerted. The individual

methods have not yet been adopted in
their entirety in Leavenworth OF
Chelan county but they are surely

and many other studies have come

years ago.
The school system has to adjust it
self year by year to these new devel-
opments and new demands, graphing
with them as they come along. esti-
mating the force and direction of
public opinion as best it may. doing
what it can to meet requirements that
are continually changing. The great
need of the situation is more intei-
gent cooperation between taxpayers
and parents on the one hand and
school trustees and teachers on the
other. The latter are trying hard to
serve a public which too frequently
is indifferent and antagonistic be-
cause it does not understand Parent
Teacher associations should be formed
in connection with every school. and
teachers and parents should strive
without ceasing to understand each
other and work together Many a
teacher knows wayward child better
than its parent, and many "a parent
could help teacher to deal with ap-
parently hopeless difficulties which a
mothers love or a fathers patience
has learned how to overcome. The in
difference of the parent and the di-
minishing influence of the home con-
stltute far more serious menace
than the DEFICIENCIES of the public
schools
We are told that the mind controls
the body. To what extent the mind
and body of the pupil will be effected
by basket ball and other games that
have of recent years been injected in
to the public schools, and just how far
they will detract from the grave and
serious subjects of the class room is
something deserving serious observa-
ton and study. Careful selection of
our school directors by the voters is

As stated at the beginning this
problem of training the children of

progress which consists of each new
generation building higher on the
foundations laid by its predecessor
The possibility of elevating the hu-
man race mentally, morally and phys
ically is the possibility in which not
