JUNCTION WIN DEBATE,
ARE CHAMPS OF SLOPE

The debating teams of Grand juno,
tion and Delta came together Monday
evening at the high school auditor
ium for the final clash to decide the
championship, and the visitors won
the decision by two votes TO one for
Delta.
The question was: Resolved, That
the United States should enter the
World Court with the Harding res,
ervations." Delta had the affirma.

All the students showed good train

Of two Sophomores and one Senior,
Martha Springer and Charlene Smith
being the lower classmen and Beulah
Kettle the upper class representative.
Even though the local team needed
one vote to place them in the cham

patron has just cause to feel chesty
over their ability, and the showing
they have made during the past sew
eral weeks.

MRS. FAIRLAMB WAS
VICTIM OF SURPRISE

A number of old friends of Mrs. S.
/. Fairlamb surprised her on Monday
April G, by inviting themselves to her
lovely home to help her celebrate her
eightieth birthday.
One will seldom find a group of
people, nearing or past the meridian
of life, displaying more marked ment-
al ability than did Mrs. Fairlamb and
her guests-songs, funny stories, read
ings, piano solos by the hostess, a
reminiscence by Mrs. Hick, bit of
history by Mrs. Bragg, these three
the well preserved and alert octogen-
arians of the gathering, enlivened the
moments that passed all too quickly
until the serving of the delicious
lunch prepared by Mrs. ]. C. Pettee
and Mrs. Millard Fairlamb.
OF much interest was the fifty
year-old tablecloth of finest satin
damask among the treasures of the
hostess. After an impressive grace
by Mrs. Hick, the ladies showed their
appreciation of the colorful and ap-
petizing fruit salad placed before
them, quickly followed by murmurs
of admiration that greeted Mrs. Pet
tees entrance with the birthday cake
bearing so lighted candles, the blow
ing out of which attested to the
strength of will and lungs of the
hostess. To Mrs. Pettee's kind heart
and capable hands, the success of the
party is mainly due, as well as the
kodak for which the three older
ladies posed

REV. PAYNE DELIVERED

SERMON AT 0LATHE

Rev. H. G. Gwinn, pastor Of the
Baptist church at Olathe exchanged
pulpits with Rev Emmanuel Payne
of the Delta Baptist church Sunday
evening that Olathe folks might be
afforded an opportunity to hear From
Coal Pit to Pulpit or Under Two
Flags" which has received such
hearty response by the public where
ever the lecture has been given.
At the time Rev. Payne lectured in
Delta many were turned away for
lack of room. The same conditions
prevailed in Olathe. Despite the
threatening weather the church was
filled to capacity as much as thirty
minutes before the speaker arrived;
scores were standing throughout the
service, and others were turned away.
Congregations from the other church.
es in Olathe and the pastors were
present. 1t was a union service.
The speaker held his audience
throughout the entire service, carry
ing them with him, as it were, as he
recounted his life experiences, often
times touching a responsive chord as
he talked of the home and home ties.
One who was there said: 1T was a
great lecture, inspiring one to reach
out to higher, better and grander
things. to seek and to make the
most of life"

Drake City H. S. Wins
Fridays Game, % to Is

The Drake City high school bas-
ketball team of North Dakota de-
feated the local high school Friday
night, % to IS. The first half of
the game the Drake boys had the
edge on the Wolves and forged
steadily ahead. When the third
quarter opened the Wolves strength
ened up and made all of their 16
points from the beginning of that
quarter to the end of the game,
Drake being unable to withstand
their onslaught once they were
started. Dick Busby refereed the
game and Ray Doe was score keeper.
The two teams were fairly evenly
matched in weight and age but the
game was not as speedy as have
been seen on the local floor, both
sides rolling up scores without the
keen excitement that close playing
inspires.
The Wolf Point lineup was: Keron
Chapman, center; "Swede" Erickson
and Buddy" Smith, forwards;
Charles Rathert and Robert Brown,
guards.

The game was played on a slip

The local girls highly compliment the

Raging Cyclone In
New Griffith Film

After seeing "That Royle Girl"
D. w. Griffth's current film success
at the Liberty Theatre, it is easy
to believe that, if ever the screens
mightiest thrills are c~atalogued, the
cyclone-climax in this new cinemas-
terpiece will like Abou Ben Adhem,
lead all the rest.
For sheer, unadulterated realism
and fierce, frenzied action, this ire
mendous scene, which comes as a
smashing, dramatic finale in Mr..
Griffth's perturbation of Edwin
Balmer's exciting novel, is the last
word in melodrama plus.
The terrifying spectacle Of an en-
tire village flooded with a torrential
rain, of whole buildings collapsing,
of roofs and walls flying through
space, of trees falling, apparently
on the players, of automobiles hurled
about as if they were toys, of human
beings battling desperately to save
themselves from Natures maniacal
fury, certainly carries a powerful
punch and gives film fans something
to remember for many a day.
But though the climax is the out
standing scenes from the standpoint
of sensational thrill, it is by no
means the only high spot in the pro-
duction. The story dealing as it
does with life in the jazz zone and
underworld of Chicago, is crowded
with gripping incidents of murder,
intrigue, law-breaking and tragedy.

Underweights Decreasing
The monthly weighing of grade
children is a regular part of the
school program in District As this
year. This is done with a view to
bringing the children up to the nor
NAL standard in so far as is possible.
In this connection Superintendent
Livingston says: "The October
weighing Of children showed 1872 as
underweights. In November this
number had been cut to 1854. We
hope the January weighing to show
a further decrease. Fifty-nine of the
children are from 7 to 10 per cent
under weight. Plans are under way
to give them special attention. A
large percentage Of the children who
are from 7 to Is per cent under
weight are also retarded in their
school work. There seems to be a
definite relationship between the
two. Children who are not in good
physical condition seldom do good
school work"
The important health rules are be-
ing emphasized in the various
grades. Children are urged to
battle often, go to sleep early, brush
the teeth and eat balanced foods.
The rural schools are also doing much
in health work, and the practical APP
plication of physiology and hygiene
make them more valuable subjects
in the curriculum.

ALLEY ANSWERS
BURESH'S CHALLENGE

In answer to the challenge issued
to me (in the last issue of The Her
add by Stanley Buresh I will say
that I am willing to meet Buresh, or
any other wrestler, that the promo
ters suggest.
I am not trying to convince the
public through the columns Of the
paper that I can defeat every wrest-
Ter in the world, but l am willing
to meet them all whether defeated
or victorious.
In every match that [ have had
with Buresh I have always given him
every advantage possible. He has a.
ways had his choice of referee and
judges. The last time we met l
defeated him as fair and square as
any man could. Instead of going
over the ropes, as he says he did,
it is my opinion that he fell through
the ropes.
No one has accused him of being
taught to throw his opponent out of
the ring. But | can say from ex-
perience that he was never taught
not to crawl from the mat when in
close quarters. I will meet Buresh
on a winner take all basis, nothing
barred, no referee, and if fail to
win I will donate 5000 to any chart
table cause which the editor of this
suggests, if he prefers to meet
me in that kind of a match.
Respectfully,

PROPER TILLACE
HIGH STANDARDS
METHOD ANALYSIS IN IS FARM
COMMUNITIES SHOWS THE
PROFIT FACTORS
CBv D. B. Noble, County AGENT

(By D. B. Noble, County Agent)
An analysis of fifteen farming
communities in Roosevelt county
showed hal proper tillage and crop
Standardization were the two most
important factors in determining
the acre income producing the larg-
est margin of profit to farmers in
Roosevelt county. The analysis made
in these fifteen communities also
demonstrated very clearly there was
a wide variation in methods of sum-
mer tillage which includes both sum-
mer fallow and corn production as
well as a very marked difference in
their progress in crop standardized
ton.
Methods Show
The analysis further showed that
in communities where most progress
was being made where the largest
net returns per acre was being Sc
cured was in communities where
proper methods Of tillage were re-
cognized and where they were being
used on a large per cent of the cash
crop acreage. Strikingly in contrast
to this the rating further shows
clearly that failure to recognize
sound principles of summer tillage
and the adoption of summer tillage
program have caused a large number
of individual farmers and communi-
ties to reduce their living standards
to meet their farm income The
standard method Of summer tillage
as being adopted is what is known
as the pillow duck-foot method which
has produced for Ben Zimmerman
of the Divide community twenty-five
and one-half bushels per acre for the
last four years from 1922 to 1925
inclusive and which, according to eX-
pertinent station data has two very
important factors that must be OBJ
served to get the best results. First
is the early blowing; summer fall
low plowed ground the first part OF
June is found to produce over a
period of nine years twice as much
grain yield per acre as summer fall
low plowed the first week in July.
This information is undoubtedly very
important as there are still a large
number of Roosevelt county farmers
who are blowing as late as they can
in July and think that is summer fall
low while in reality land plowed that
late under average conditions will
not produce as large a yield as spring
blowing as it is really summer plowed
land rather than summer fallowed.
The other important feature of the
Zimmerman method is the fact that
clean cultivation must be followed
with a type of mulch that is the clod
mulch, which leaves the surface
spongy and the under surface fairly
firm SO that it will be in condition
