F. E. RATHERT BACK
FROM SOUTHERN TRIP

F. E. Rathert of this city returned
Tuesday from long trip through the
middle west and extending as far
east and south as Florida. Mr..
Rathert left here about two weeks
ago with the intention of visiting in
the Twin Cities and his old home
in Iowa but later decided to go to
Florida.
He says that conditions in Iowa
and the middle west are not as bright
as they might be. Many people
there are hard up, money is tight
and the general aspect is poor.
The Florida boom is slackening IN
most respects Mr.. Rathert thinks. He
found very good hotel accommoda-
tions at reasonable prices. The
wild extravaganza which we have
read so much about either does not
exist or has gone out of style and
prices are but little above normal.
He saw some of the districts which
had suffered from the recent floods
and says while he was there it was
raining some. People do not seem
to be rushing in there as fast as has
been reported and everything bears
signs of a healthy prosperity.

WOLF POINT II
MEDICINE LAKE 8
H. S. GIRLS WIN BASKETBALL
GAME BY SPEED AND
GOOD TEAM WORK

The Wolf Point girls basketball
team opened this winters season
Friday night by defeating Medicine
Lake, II to 8, on the local H. S.
gym floor. The game was hotly con-
tested throughout but the greater
speed and team work of the local
girls kept them well ahead, except
for few moments in the fourth
quarter when the two scores were
almost tied and it seemed for a mo-
ment that Medicine Lake might take
the lead. The Medicine Lake girls
were considerably heavier than the
Wolf Pointers. Strenuous work on
the part of the Wolf Point guards
was necessary to keep the score
down as a good part of the playing
was done around the Medicine Lake
goal.
