 Feeling of Pride
 Y came away from Washington with a feeling of great pride in the D. A. R. felt that we were not just patriotic organization of women but a part Of the federal Government who granted us our charter. I wish every one of you could read or hear Mre. Brosseaus views as I heard them. She stands for one thing-the flag Of the Unit ed States . . . This is her answer 10 the self-termed committee of pro- test against armaments who are not in harmony with the avowed pur- poses of our society and who should be denied the rights of the D. A. R. platform"
 The report of the page also quoted from Mrs. George Maynard Minor, honorable president general from Connecticut whose appearance on the platform was greeted with marked enthusiasm. Said the report: "She told us that unless we are prepared 10 defend our country our boys had died in vain in France"
 In a review Of the national con- vcntion read. to the chapter mention was made of the gift of $25.0o0 by Mir. Brosseau, husband of the presi- 1 dent-general towards the three mil lion fund for the D. A. F. building in i Washington.

She stated in this letter her views on controversies which are now aKitat- ing the D. A. R.

 to the conduct of Its nleetings, in particular in regard to choice of speakers who shall be invited 10 ad- dress the chapter and, if should become regent, l should expect to carry out this principle. In case the chapter members do not approve Of my views in this regard I respect fully request my name be Nithdra VII as candidate,
 "rhe statement is made in no un- gracious or controversial spirit. but only in fairness to the chapter and myself, to the end that there shall be no misunderstanding on either side"
 During the year there were five deaths in the chapter and 13 trans fers. The present membership is c50.

Tho practice of Prosecuting At- torney J. c. Woods in allowing po- licemen and others to coach him during the trial of police court cases was vociferously objected to by At torney Harry M. Ginsburg today when Sergeant r. J. O'Mara whis- pered 10 Mir. Woods and the latter promptly added to his statement to Judge Roche. T have never said anything about 1t before. and have stood it in number of cases. but I am, not going to stand for it any more" the attorney declared. Time after time Mir. Woods has policemen and other witnesses coaching him and telling him what to say"
 II suppose the state can conduct it's case as it sees flt." Judge Roche remarked. .-.
 Apparently 1t does" replied At torney Ginsburg.
 After court, Mir. Woods told the defense counsel he would conduct the states case to suit himself, ob- jections to his methods notwith- standing.

vashOn wins BOth ChampiOnship.

last Friday night was a great
night for Vashon High School,
both the girls and the boys teams
defeated Burton's teams in the
third and decisive game for the
Basketball Championship of the
Island. The games were played on
the Vashon floor, the two schools
dividing the responsibilities and
the receipts. Each team had won
one Of the two previous games so
these were deciding contests. The
Vashon girls began by winning
their game - tolls. They had
everything their own way during
the first half which ended 10 to 5
in their favor but the second half
was no walk away Grace Larson
got started and scored ten points
to our eight. All the girls played
great bali ami it is hard to single
out any especially good players,
but we would not be fair II We did
moi mention Rose Garner who
played a stellar game at gIard
and Olga Well and Vergie Calhoun
who did the ajor part OF theplay
ing in the middle section of the
floor Everyone was especially
pleased with the Referee Mis-,
Katheryn Schaffer Of Everett, tn,
girls OF both teams say she is tn,
best they have yet seen.
Everyone thought they has
their moneys worth at the end Of
the girls game and then the unex
pected happened. The boys team
uncorked well played fast gam,
that ended with Vashon on tn,
long end Of a II to II score. L
was regrettable fact that the re
fierce missed the Loaf and no
