ST. JOHNS DEFEATS
SNOWFLAKE In BOTH
GAMES PLAYED SAT

Last Saturday was the scene
of two games of Basketball be-
tween the first and second teams
of Snowflake and St. Johns.
The first game was a very
fast and hard fought affair, st.
Johns winning by the close score
of So to 35. The only point st.
Johns had Snowflake bested in
was foul throwing,
This makes the second time
St. Johns has beat Snowflake by
the small margin of one. point.
The game between the End
teams was very exciting all the
way through both teams playing
a good game. The score at the
end being 19 to 90 in favor of
ST. Johns.
These two games closed the
basketball season for this term.
After the games the st. Johns

LOCAL THEATER TO
PRESENT SOME VERY
INTERESTING PROGRAMS

The program last Saturday
night consisted of l reel from
the activities of the Boy Scouts
and the feature "Oliver Twist
with Jackie Coogan asstar. The
picture follows Dickens story
very closely and is a masterpiece
as is the story. The large
crowd present were very we'll
pleased with the way Sol Lessons
picture handled the much read
book by the famous author.
Many people will be glad to
know that next Saturday will
appear again the star, who al
ways pleases, Constance Tai
mage, in Polly of the Follies."
This play is entirely different
firm any put on before and it is
believed that the change will de
appreciated by all who see this
unusual picture.
1t is conceded by a great
majority of the critics of the
screen that one of the best, if
not the best production of the
year, is the Metro Feature, '"The
Four Horsemen of the Apocalyp-
se. This picture will be shown
at the Social Theater before
long.
The Director of the Four
Horsemen is Rex Ingram and
because of his direction Of it. he
is consideree one of the best
directors of the screen.
One of the pictures made by
Rex Ingram since his master
pIUyr 40 1ulr OUIIQucIIng UwET
and in many respects equals Tnt
Four Horsemen which cost over
a Million dollars. What is the
Conquering Power, is it ambi-
ton or hate-love or lust for
gold? The answer will be given
at the Social Theater in this big
feature, April 7th.

Although the Big Coyote"
(Literary Club has been silent
all year the species is beginning
to show signs of life. On April
2 a program will be presented in
the High School Auditorium by
the young Coyotes, otherwise
known as the Freshmen class.
The entertainment will consist
of character songs and other
special musical numbers, a one
act play of unusual merit leveled
against gossip, HE Says and

logues and dialogues. The doors
will open at 7:30 and the program
will begin begin promtly at 8.
The small admission fee of twen-
ty (20) cents for adults, fifteen
(15) cents for Academy students
and ten (10) cents for children
is not intended as an index of
the quality Of the program.
The little Coyotes" want every
one to see their performance,
and make merely enough money
to clear expenses. For literary

panic would be likely to result in
blocking escape by reason of children
falling over each other.
Serious as all of these conditions
are, there yet remains one condition
which in its immediate consequences
may be more dangerous than all the
others. The building gives evidence
of serious deterioration. The outside
walls in the southwest corner of the
building show dangerous cracks and
the means used for attempting to hold
the wall in place by iron rods are ut
terly inadequate. A portion of this
wall under the second story window is
in very bad condition. The arch over
the south entrance to the building has
reached a state of deterioration which
makes this entrances positively dang
erous to use. The arch over the east
entrance also shows considerable det-
erioration, and, while there is appar-
emily no immediate danger, the con-
dition of this arch constitutes a dis
tinct menace.
'The walls of the building in num-
Der of places show marked degree
of deterioration and their present con-
dition is ample evidence that the build
ing has reached a stage where it no

LEAVE HOLE IN VEST POCKET

blessing in disguise. and who must new

Here's the dope, remarks New York
Sun writer.
If you knew anything about mems
vest pockets you would know that dust,
such as settles on the top of the mantel
where you never dust, accumulateS in
the corners or the lining of the pockets.
Such dust does no harm, except in the
one in which the watch is carried, says
a jeweler.
you have fine watch" says the
jeweler "You put it in a pocketful OF
dust, and what happens? After awhile
some of the dust works its way into the
works and the timekeeping ability of
the watch is ruined. SO, what can we
do TO overcome this? 1t is simple.
Punch little hole in the pocket, then
the dust will all sift down into the
interlining of the vest, and your watch
will have clean pocket TO lie in. You
will be surprised how 1t will help your
watch"

Hardy NOrseman in Ice
box for Ten Centuries

Not so many years ago the well
preserved carcas of a prehistoric
mammoth was discovered in a glacier
in Spitzbergen, Russia, and gave the
world an authentic representation of
that extinct animal
Drifting for ten centuries through
the unchartered seas north of the Artic
Circle, traversing many thousand miles
of snow and silence, perhaps pushed
by the ever-grinding ice-foes to
the North Fole itself, the body of a
Viking thousand years old has now
returned at last to civilization. En-
cased from head to heel in a frozen
winding sheet that preserved it more
perfectly than any Egyptian mummy,
the Vikings body was discovered by
Danish Doctors standing upright in a
huge iceberg cast up on the east coast
of Greenland. 1t lowered before their
amazed eyes like an incredible phan-
tom-seven feet tall, clad in rude an
cient armour, gripping spear and
shield, head crowned with the winged
helmet of Morse royalty, the whole
dimly visible within the transparent
tomb of ice. Men withSaxes chopped
away the natural casket. Then the
Viking stood as unmarried by time as
though he. had died but Yesterday.
He was not dried upso shrunken.
The skin was white and firm. The
hair of the head and the bushy moust-
ache was long and red andssilky. The
iceberg had kept him inperishable for
posterity. The body is being taken to
Copenhagen There scientists viii en-
de4vor to perpetuate the process of
