Past Weeks PLAY
LOCAL QUINT DEFEATS THE
APPLETON, MADISON AND
UPTOWN COLORED TEAMS;
ASCENSION PLAY SATURDAY.

Finding themselves in their usual
condition and with the aid of two of
the greatest basketball men in the
state the Guardsmen won an easy vic
tory over the fast Appleton Independ-
ent quint Thursday night by score
Of 3S to %. Nordquist and Linden
berg were used by the Guards for
this important game and it must be
said that both men gave their best.
Nordquist, man who has not had
the advantages of college training in
basketball, neld a former all-state
man scoreless, Lindberg of Appleton
being his victim
Lindenberg, former Gustavus Adol-
phus star and all-state man for three
consecutive years was high scorer,
getting away for six field goals and
a free throw Donlin and Castle gave
an excellent exhibition of floor play
These two forwards could not be
stopped. 1t is the contention of
most of the fans that had the regu-
lar lineup been left in during the
entire game Redwood would have
easily run up fifty points. Donlin
scored four doubles and free throw;
Castle accounted for three field goals
and pair of free counters; Nord-
Quist looped in four field goals while
Hoffert got free throw.
The tedious three day trip that the
visitors had been on no doubt PROV
ed to he too much for them. Glenn,
the stellar forward was crippled and
had to be withdrawn, in fact the
whole team in general was off. 1t is
hoped that Appleton will play here
again before the season is over and
that they will be able to give their
usual exhibition of basketball.
MADISON GAME
Monday night the Guardsmen won
their second game of the past week by
defeating the Madison Independents
at Madison by the score of 80 to %.
The furious pace set by the Guards
proved too much for the crack Madi-
son squad. Castle led the scorers
with five field goals and two free
throws. Donlin gathered four field
markers and three free tosses. Nord-
quist accounted for three field mark
ers while Gaash made a free throw.
The game was clean and was well
played from start to finish Referee
jacobson Of Madison cfficiated and
was satisfactory to both teams.

"Fiddlers" Meet
Planned to Raise
BathhOuse Fund
APRIL SELECTED AS TENTATIVE
DATE FOR CONTEST OF OLD
TIME MUSICIANS SPONSORED
BY LOCAL CLUB.

D.. l.. Crimmins, president of the
Redwood Falls Commercial Club an
nounces that later in the year the
Club will sponsor a Fiddler's Con-
test. This is one of several enter
tainments which Mr.. Crimmins and
his co-workers are considering as
benefits for the fund necessary to the
erection of the new bath house on
Lake Redwood. A definite date has
not yet been announced but it is
probable that the event will occur
some time in April. Just how much
matter for later decision but it is
assured that all "fiddlers" in Redwood
and Renville Counties will be eligible
and it is probable that adjacent coun-
ties will also be included.
In several other towns similar con-
tests have been held affording much
amusement and entertainment and
also proving financial successes.
Seventyfive musicians recently took
part in a contest at Flandreau, S. D.,
playing old time music of various
sorts. The groups were accompanied
by their own dance specialists and
old time jigs and clogs formed part
of the evenings entertainment. Each
group played music for both "round"
and square" dances and prompters
to ''call the dances" added much to the
old-time spirit. A committee will be
appointed soon to make arrangements
for the local event.

MORTON HILL BAD.

Ware the Morton hill, is the
warning to motorists during the
past week. Several accidents
have occurred on this hill or at
the foot of it, these being ocas-
stoned by the ice. Two South
Dakota cars came to grief
there in a collision last week and
both of them were badly dam
aged. One of the occupants of
the cars, Rev. c. Miens0n of
Arlington, S. d., was injured
so that he had to be taken to
the hospital for treatment be-
fore returning to his home. A
young lady was the victim of
an accident which occurred at
the foot of the hill Thursday
evening. Although she was not
seriously injured the escape of
herself and her companions was
really miraculous. This car
went off the grade near the
bridge at the foot of the hill.
While the hill is not in any
sense impossible, it is danger
Gus under the present road and
weather conditions and the
driver who takes it cautiously
is the wise driver. Possibly
the wiser driver is he who takes
the other road to Morton even
though it be a little farther.
Since the rebuilding of the
Coed Thunder hill this road is
in unusually good condition and
easily travelable.

HEALTH LESSONS TAUGHT

Chew-Chew, the Health Clown
sent to Redwood Falls last
Tuesday by the Minnesota Pub
lie Health, gave the boys and
girls of this vicinity a lot of
health pointers, and gave them
so attractively that the young
sters will not soon forget them.
Chew-Chew worked with the
children in the school all day
and in the evening there was a
grand frOlic in the auditorium
of the Lincoln School. The chill
dren sang health songs and
gave health drills and playlets,
Miss Ross of the Public Health
Department gave helpful talk
and Chew-Chew entertained in
his usual robust fashion. The
children were delighted with
him and all his stunts were
greeted with shrieks of laugh
ter. The many older people
present were delighted, too
that the every day health edu-
cation was so cleverly put
across. Following the enter
tainment the members of the
Twentieth Century Club served
light lunches, the money thus
earned going into the milk
Fund" which this Club is spon-
sOring. Arrangements for the
evening were made by Miss
Ethel Freeman, the visiting
school nurse and the expenses
of Chew-Chew were paid from
the Christmas Seal money.

Plague of Jellyfsh

All is not roses and sweet-scented
scenery in the peighborhood of the
French Riviera. The little fishing
village of Cros-de-C agnes, just out
side Nice, soon will be uninhabitable
unless some means is found Of de-
stroying the millions of jellyfish which
have appeared in the bay. Huge piles
of dead fish are nightly thrown up on
the beach and the authorities recent
ly were unable to clean them away
before they began to rot. Attempts to
burn the fish had been unsuccessful.

leaves will last two or three genera
lions, as this is seasoning like garlic
which should be used in very small
quantities. The little bit, however, is
needed to add that alluring flavor.
A bottle of mushroom sauce, kitchen
bouquet, worcestershire and tabasco
sauce, pepper sauce, curry, chilli pow
der, celery salt, paprika, soy sauces
of various kinds with the commoner
seasonings and n dozen of the savory
herbs should all be part of the we'll
equipped kitchen.
Scald a dish in which fish has been
cooked with vinegar in the water, then
wash with soda in the water.
Old rubbers will be shined up by
rubbing them with ammonia.
A roomy market basket well padded
makes a fine bed for a small baby
when travelling. 1t is easy to carry
and will also hold the baby's belong
ings. Being able to carry the baby
without disturbing him or exposing
him to the weather is a great advan-
tage.
Grease the cork of the bottle of
glue and it will be easy to remove
when needed.
Between the rows of the vegetables
which will soon be pulled like onions,
radlshes and such vegetables, sow
flower seed which will delight you
after the vegetables are gone.
A good way to clean gloves is to
moisten flour and wash them on tbs
hands, by rubbing and cleaning off
the dark spots. Renew the flour and
clean again.
Kitchen aprons of unbleached cot
ton are much more desirable, as they
may be boiled and kept white.
A piece of ice held in the mouth for
a minute before bad-tasting medicine
Is given will dull the sense Of taste.
A little sand In a top-heavy vase
will add greatly to the comfort of US
ing it.
A fresh blood stain will be COM
pletely removed If covered at once
with powdered starch.
When setting dishes on ice use O
can rubber under them; this will keep
them from slipping.
