HOLLY WINS FROM LAS ANIMAs
Final Score 81 to o.

The Wildcats again proved to
all the fans that they were a fight
ing bunch. Holly defeated Las
Animas on the local gridiron Sat
urday by score of 81 to 0. 1t was
good game, in fact. the best that
has ever been seen in Holly.
The game was called at 2:30 and
from the way the Holly boys held
it looked as if it would be very
tight game. 1t was battle royal
until John Howell went over for
touchdown by line plung. The
feature of the game was the con
sistent line plunging by the Holly
backfield.
Adkins gained more ground on
line plunges than the combined
Las Animas team. Lewis complet-
ed some pretty passes;all the line
men worked like one man and de-
serve lots of praise.
The Las Animas boys were very
surprised bunch of football play.
ers after the game. They couldn't
see how Holly had completely
swamped them.
All of the Las Animas boys play
ed good clean football They were
all true sportsmen and had no alibi
to offer. They were defeated but
were good losers. We would like to
meet them again.
One of the reasons that Holly
could not be stopped was this. 1t
got out in sort of round about
way that Las Animas was too good
for Holly and that they did not
consider Holly good enough com.
petitors for them. This got under
the skin and the Wildcats" proved
that they were good competition
for any team.

HOLLY WINS FROM LAMAR
IA TO 10

In hard fought game the Wild
cats won from Lamar last Saturday
afternoon on the local gridiron.
After Lamar had led for three
periods the Wildcats staged a
wonderful comeback and made the
last and winning touchdown in the
last period.
Lamar kicked off and the Wild
cats carried the ball back twenty
yards. They were soon forced to
punt however and realized it would
be ahard fight to win.
The ball was carried back and
forth for some time neither side
getting anywhere The Wildcats
after series OF line bucks and end
runs succeeded in getting the ball
in scoring distance. When the Wild
cats saw the goal line four yards
away they could not be stopped
and went over for touchdown on
the next play Adkins kicked the
goal.
Lamar came back strong ard
scored touchdown and place
kick in the second period. This
gave them the lead and the WiIa.
cats slumped They did not have
that Holly fight till you die

things happened Holly called time
out and decided that they would
score the winning touchdown The
goal was 10 yards away. Lamar
thought they had the game cinehed
1t was the hardest fought game
of the season and the Wildcats were
determined to win the game and
keep clean slate.
The passing was poor and Holly
should never have tried to play it
It was poor generalship. But when
the Wildcats settled down and
played their usual stady game it
was different matter.
Plank played stellar game and
deserves lots of credit for the vie.

GOLDEN RULE SUNDAY

The near East Relief Is making
proposition to fourteen different
countries including America In.
dorced by President Coolidge and
the heads of the other nations.
In view of the need of caring for
the 10000 children of the near East
Relief orphanges we are called up
on to observe Sunday December 2
in a peculiar way. Each family is
asked on that day to prepare and
eat an Orphans Dinner instead of
our usual more elaborate meal
and give the difference in the cost
of the two kinds of dinner to the
support of these unfortunate waits
of the late war, orphaned through
the cruelty of war. If you are
willing to make the sacrifice on
this set day for one meal send your
name to Near East Relief. 7l2 Cen
tral Savings Bank Building, Den
yer or to 15l-5th. Ave. N. N. or to
the Chieftain Office; and you will
receive sample menu Of the usu-
al meal enjoyed" by the orphans
of the Near Relief. Only you must
pledge yourself, unless prevented,
to make that menu your dinner
for that day. 1t will be sufficient
and nutritious but frugal. The
Waldorf-Astria Hotel and the
Farmer School of cookery are fur
nishing the recipes.
In addition to the frugal meal
those who will are asked to abstain
from joy rides. cigars, cigarettes.
candies, perfumery, flowers and
feathers on that Sunday and give
the proceeds to the orphans.
/ am in sympathy with the pro-
posal for the observance of an In
ternational Golden Rule Sunday,
December Q, 1923, and If not pre-
vented by unforeseen develop
ments I will endeavor to arrange
for suitable observance in my own
household, providing if practicable
a simple menu for at least one
meal OF that day approximating
that which is used every day In
the orphanages of the Near East.
The difference in cost of this or
phanage menu and usual meal l
will contribute for the purchase
of fosd for the orphans of the Near
East.

INDIAN MISSIONS

DR.. Elmer Higley Of the Board
OF Indian Missions of the NJ. Z.
church spoke Interestingly at the
NJ. E. Church last Thursday even
ing.
The Indians call themselves The
People" and they are right since
they were here before the May.
flower arrived
The needs of the Indians are as
f0llows:-
l. Need of citizenship Many of
them are now only wards of the
nation. We have weakened the
Indians moral fiber BY putting
them on reservations, isolated from
contract with white citizenship.
By giving them rations instead of
teaching them how to work we
have deprived them of ambition
and initiative. Better have help
ed them to help themselves The
younger generation is progressive
and crave citizenship. Indians. like
Louie Bruce. now missionary
among the Mohawks, show their
aptitude for citizenship.
q Need of Education. An educa-
tion is the basis Of safe and
sound democracy. There should be
an intelligence test for all before
granting them suffrage. Education
would deliver the Indian from
cruel superstitions. Thousands
are now held in the grip of the
medicine man. The speaker ex.
hibited several relices of the
medicine man. Schools have been
established among the tribes to
teach the young Indians how to
work and care for their health.
Missionaries, nurses and physicians
are provided 8 out of 5 Indian
babies die before five years of age.
He described the work at the near
est Indian Mission at Pennington,
New Mexico where Mr. and Mrs.
Foreman work. Here is a reser-
walton larger than the state OF
Massachusetts,, Rhode Island and
Connecticut occupied by the Navs-
JOS More buildings have been
erected on Indian Mission fields
during the last year htan in twenty
five years. s5 cents Of every dol
lar given by the people goes into
the Mission work directly.
B. Need OF Religion. Anthro.
biologists for historical reasons,
artists for artistic reasons and
traders for mercenary reasons are
the only ones to oppose the Chris
tianization of the Indians. IN early
times white traders and other un-
scrupulous men exploited the In
dians and discredited our civilian
tion and religion. But today the
tubes are welcoming Christianity.
Fifty eight different dialects are
spoken by the Indians of the U. S.
There are $1,000 Indians among
whom no religious work Is done,
neither Protestant nor Catholic.
There are many pitiful appeals
for help but lack of funds hinders
the work
The speaker told about Two
Guns" whose face is on our five.

into the communion of the Metho-
dist Church. He gave this mes
sage to the American people

EDUCATION WEEK NOV. ,s to "a

Character, the Result of Cul-
ture", was the class motto adopted
by the College class of which the
writer was a member. He had the
honor of suggesting the motto
which was chosen from a large
number. The words were almost
the chance utterance of an out
door sermon heard on a Summer
Sunday Evening.
1t describes, tersely, the value
of a true education. The greatest
asset of human kind is character,
the only real safeguard of this ma
ton. Neither, money, talent nor
political influence can take the
place of it. If culture can confer
character it is something greatly
to be desired. Culture is more
than Education. Secular Educa-
tion garantees nothing moral: 1t
| may only increase the capacity for
evil doing There is no more dan
gerous man than the knowing
scoundrel But culture implies
soul-soil prepared for seed. OF
course it may be "Kultur" after
the German sort that grows ambi-
tious. dangerous to democracy and
world peace. But we are think
ing only of good seed for only NOR
al and spiritual culture will result
in good character.
Education is essentially soul
equality 1t is almost misnemer
to speak to manual or even com
mercial education, if we are lock.
| ing only for efficiency in vocation.
Manual Training, domestic science
and stenoghaphy may and ought
to have some value in heart cul-
| ture, but merely as vocational
subjects they are not education.
Perhaps in these days we are
stressing vocational subjects too
| much; it is the natural reaction
| fer the ancient emphasis on merely
| literary subjects But while we
all recognize the need of training
our youth to enter the trades and
commerce, and schools should be
provided for such needs, we should
not prostitute our high schools
and colleges to such inferior ends.
The purpose of our schools and
colleges is not to turn out" car
penters, house keepers, and book
keepers. We need institutions to
teach the trades and house hold
service, and we need them sorely,
| but this is not the function of our
common schools not the purpose
of educating our youth, though
| modicum of mammal arts is desir-
able as diciplinary subjects.
The mission of the schools is to
teach good citizenship, patriotism,
and moral values and to impress
upon our youth the qualities of
civic and social virtues.
The public school system be-
comes, thus, the bulwark of nation
| al welfare and the pledge of free
dom. 1t is the greatest institution
| in America. 1t is a strange thing
that long before this there has not
/! been a member in the president
cabinet to preside over the educa-
| tional work ofour country. Aside
from the post office it is the only
| institution ABSOLUTELY under state
and federal control and yet there
is no one to advise the president
in educational matters. Never-the.
less the president has issued pro
clamation calling upon the people
| to observe Education Week, Nov
| ember 1924, when the needs and
problems of our chools should
have first place.
| Only moral and spiritual cul-
| ture moulds the minds and hearts
of our youth and stmps them with
| the image of the Creator. Shall
American youth pass currency In
| the courts of civilization?
