PREP EWES FROM
 ALL OVER SOUTH
 N AUBURN MEET.
Tech High of Atlanta, 1922 Champions, Will Enter
 Again

AUBURN, Ala, January 31,-Prep teams all over the south of the best standing are looking ahead to the Cotton States basketball tournament that will be held here on February 13, IA and 15, for the championship of Dixie
 The leading contenders of last sea son will be back with many new teams entered, it is stated.
 Tech High school of Atlanta, champions of last year and univer- sity High school of Atlanta, runner up for the title, will both return with great machines this year
 Simpson High school, preparatory to Birmingham Southern college. will return another outfit that is said to be better than the team of last year. The Purple Tornado fin ished third in the last meet, out ranking any other southern team.
 Alabama is expected to send sew eral other teams that will be able to hold its own. chief among them probably being Sidney Laner of Montgomery, who has bowed to only one opponent. that being Simpson. the Tornado .edging over 2 to 25 victory in Lanier's gym.
 Walker county, Barton of Mobile and Greenville are expected to be other leading Alabama contenders.
 The championship Tech High quin- tet lost but one game in three years, and that setback came recently when University High of Atlanta won out by single field goal, so from all appearances it looks like the Cracker city boys are in the fight strong again this year.
 Mississippi and Florida are also expected to send several strong en- tries, although the list is yet in- complete.

more of its members are planning outings for the near future.
 Camp Oliver is in first class winter time condition. Heating facilities are thoroughly adequate, and the eating proposition is being very well taken care of these days.

Plans for restocking the lake are all ready being made, and at present a drive to catch 100 brood bass to be sent to a Georgia hatchery is on. The young bass matched will be sent all over the south, and Lake Oliver will get it's full quota of the new stock.
 A membership drive will be in- augurated soon, by which the Ala bama Fishermen and Hunters as- sociation hopes to increase it's mem bership 100 per cent or over. Dues are small, and receipt books have been placed at various places over town, including all the well known sporting goods houses.

WEST SLOPE COLLEGES GROWTH


The attendance at the State Nor
NAL at Gunnison this year is almost
double that of one year ago-a very
gratifying condition to educational
workers on this side of the range as
we'll as to the patrons of the insti-
tuition. There is now no reason why
any pupil on this side of the noun
tains should travel all the way to
Greeley to secure the very best of
training, as the Gunnison College
stands at the top in educational
circles.
The buildings are very inadequate
to meet the constant growth in at
tendance and a special appropriation
will be asked from the legislature
with which to complete the central
structure. All the college asks is
that it receive just proportion of
the sums allowed other institutions.
1t has not been receiving anywhere
near its quota.-Grand Junction

set up that damned Napoleon as a
magnificent example for youth to
emulate!
"Was the first story ever read to
me the Sermon on the Mount?" he
asked
Not on your lifel The first story
ever read to me told of how Ser
geant O'Rouke won the Victoria
cross. The first monument l remem-
ber to have seen was the duke of
Wellington. Why didn't my baby
eyes see monument to Jesus Christ
or Pasteur or Luther Burbank or
some other of the great social bene-
factors? I'll tell you: because the
same influences which are response
BILE for war are responsible for the
monuments set up to disfigure our
cities and for the filling of our
school shelves with histories glorify-
ing war.
"a lot of US fellows who went into
the war went in for the fun of it,
After little while we fought like
fiends, because we were told, and
wanted to believe, that this was g
war to end war. OF course, I'd &c
again. but I'd know that none of the
pledges given by governments had
been fulfilled"
Then Private Peat told how he al.
most laughed himself sick when he
saw the first tank hobbling after the
Germans.
Germans Also Guilty Of Lie. Charges
| There is no note of bitterness
when he speaks of the late enemy.
''They, too, were caught in the
mesh of the inexcusable lie," he says
IF they committed atrocities, they
did what any advancing, victorious
army would do when fired with vic
tory and liquor. They insist theirs
was an economic and not a military
defeat"
Then Private Peat declared that it
may take three generations to learn
that war is something for people to
leave alone, just as it will take at
least two generations to make prohi-
bition effective,
But we've got to tear down the
monuments to warriors, throw the
histories, as written, into the fire
and begin all over again. We've got
to learn and believe that a soldier
who is medaled is murderer under
law Why, l received three medals
and killed seven men. If I'd killed
twenty I'd probably be covered from
shoulder to waist with the gawds"

Last of all, Mary herself was lead

for a speech. She bravely began,
but ribbon was thrust into her
hand from back of the curtain and
she was told to walk into the middle
of the room. To her surprise be-
hind her trailed doll carriage full
of attractive and colorful parcels.
Then followed the fun of watching

which were accompanied with anus

New Bridge at Almont Now Open to
Traffic

A new highway bridge over the
East river near Almont has been
opened to traffic. The structure is
80 feet long and is supported on "a
inch steel piling which was driven
II feet into the river bottom.
The new structure was built for
permanence and cost about $4,000.
1t replaces an old structure which
was destroyed by flood waters. There
is 20-foot roadway on the new
bridge.
Completion of the bridge was de-
layed on account of the piling strik-
ing huge boulders in the river bed.
The abutments are made of concrete
and it is not expected that floods
will affect the new structure.
The Monarch Engineer Company of
Denver, had the contract. Charles
Whalen and Pat Cleary were fore
men in charge of construction. Ber-
nard L. Flanagan was inspector for
the State Highway Department and
H. T. Reno, engineer on the project.
