GRAVES THROW
 DEMOLAYS OFF
 STRIDE TO WIN
Clothiers in Upset Triumph Last Evening Fire
 men Win

Before enthusiastic hoop fans in the high school gym last night, Graves and the DeMolays put on game that surprised even the most ardent followers. Unable tc cope with the clever gene defense Graves have been building up as the season progressed, the DeMol- avs were baffled at their inability to get near the basket and were left on the outskirts of the court making dead-hope shots at the hoop.
 Tearing through the first quar- ter, the Clothiers were able to build up a good lead of 10 points, Bob McPhee finishing up the total with rapid-fire bucket. The lodge men gathered only points
 For while the DeMolay got hack in their old stride and made the Clothiers toe the line allow Ing them one point during the sec end quarter, while Elmer Lind strom and Kinky Bayers closed the initial margin somewhat by bring ing the purple and gold balance to 8 points; holding Graves to H.
 Tables were turned at the next stage of the game and remained that way for the rest of the even ing when the De Molays boosted their score only to II and Graves jumped to 21.
 Eddie Lawson, with 16 markers, was high scorer for the evening, and Bob McPhee, backed up by Bill Robertson, Bud Foster and Bill O. Mally through defensive team work, and forcing the DeMolays to change their usual style of offense, brought the laurel crown to the Clothiers' team last night by final score of 34 to 18
 Bremen Beat Krause
 Opening the preliminary game last evening with a five point lead at the end of the first quarter, the Krauses then proceeded to get stuck in the cement. The Bremen raised the pole so fast in the second quarter that the Concreters were left with only 15 points against the 9 that the Bremen had gathered.
 Doc Hollmann was tops last night and with the aid of standbys Jimmy Orme and Dewey Baker, and the extra assistance of Joe Snow, there was no doubt about the out come
 Although Bardi flashed his best form and was high scorer for the evening, with Sammy Nelson con- tributing to the Krause points. it was not enough to break the Fire mems combination led by Hollmann, who placed them fast and plenty in the final minutes of the game, which ended with the margin 45 to 35 for the Smoke-eaters.

Farmers Should
Know All About
Profits And Loss
By w. A. FRANKLIN
Voc ational yrieultsre Instructor

The year 1896 is almost gone
and then a pew year will start.
wonder how hhny. !farniers can
look back over theT-year' and be
able to figure out how much they
made or how much they lost dur
| ing the last wear: did they make
any profit on their farm, and on
what items was the most profit
made? Was it on vegetables, poul-
try, farm crops or live stock?
II the farmer has kept an ac-
curate record all during the year
he can very easily tell where his
profit is coming from and it is
only with a well kept record Of
all expenses and Of every thing
that is sold and produced on the
farm that he may know where he
stands when the end Of the year
comes.
The business-like farmer knows
that the value Of well kept set
Of farm records is much greater
than the cost of keeping them.
To be sure keeping a record Of
payments and receipts during the
year involves a little time and
trouble. At the same time having
such a record often saves a great
deal more time and trouble than
is required to keep it. More than
that, thousands of farmers claim
that their records have helped
them increase their incomes very
materially. This is the principal
reason for keeping account Of the
farms expenses and sources OF in
come. In no other way can
farmer tell just how much profit
or loss should be charged to the
various enterprises that he may
be carrying on.
The beginning Of 1897 is q
good time for US to make new
year resolution to decide to start
Keeping = record on the farm and
find out the items that are paying
us and the ones that are not pay
ing US.
II is u hard matter for Us TO
keep all of these things in our
mind, so the thing to do is to get
a book and keep the items marked
down.
The Progressive Farmer offers
a farm account book which sells
for zoe which deals in the follow
ing subjects: Inventory, accounts
with rentors or laborers, poultry
record, dairy record, automobile
and truck cost, seeds, plants, ETC.,
bought; articles Of merchandise
bought; all livestock and livestock
products sold; fertilizer and lime
bought; receipts and expenses OF
fields; summary of the years re-
suits by crops, and other informa:
ton. The book can be ordered

In view of this attitude, women, If
they desire to rise above the rut OF
script -clerking or minor ofice posi-
tions, must surpass mans average
daily accomplishments in order to
seem equally efficient. Most Of them
have had to manufacture their own
Jobs and make themselves indis-
pensible long before gaining recogni-
ton and big salaries.
Among the most fertile fields for
women in the higher strata Of the
movie industry is film editing. Two OF
the best pictures in recent years were
edited by women-"Mutiny on the
Bounty" by Margaret Booth, and
Rose Marie" by Blanche Sewell.
Others included in the present total
of eight film editors are Jane Loring
of R-K-O Radio Pictures and Ann
Bauchens, with Cecil B. De Mile.
Only three women have succeeded in
breaking into the jealously guarded
masculine territory Of directing: Lois
Weber, who directed her first film in
1921, but has done very little within
the last few years; 35-year-old Doro-
thy Arzner, director OF all the
"Strongheart" pictures and rated with
the best In Hollywood, and Leontine
Sagan of "Maedchen in Uniform
fame.

know l author. was Hollywood's sole
woman producer, but she has gone

back to writing, finding it possible to
earn more money with less grief in
that field.
Among the notable women at present
holding down man-sized jobs, Natalie
Kalmus stands in the first rank for
importance. Mrs. Kalmus has worked
in close association with her husband,
DR.. Herbert T. Kalmus, president and
general manager of Technicolor, from
the time in 1915 when he, in associ-
alton with two other scientists, con-
ceived the idea of full-color motion
pictures. She probably knows more

from camera to finished product, than
any other person with the exception
Of the inventors.
Probably other women could equal
the accomplishments of Mrs Kalmus,
but 1t Is doubtful whether there ever
will be q similar opportunity to get in
on the ground floor and catch the
elevator soaring upward.
Ida Koverman, secretary in chief.
adviser and assistant to Louis B.
Mayer, president Of Metro Goldwyn-
Mayer. was born and educated in Gin

to John Hays Hammond. She met her

holders include Bessie McGaffey, re.

lack CONWAY has been selected

JACK CONWAY has been selected to
direct another of the most famous
classics in English literature, Captains
Courageous, soon to go into produc-
ton at Metro Goldwyn-Mayer, with
Freddie Bartholomew starred.
The assignment follows closely the
brilliant success scored by "a Tale of
Two Cities" which brought Conway
new honors as the director OF a
Dickens masterpiece.
Rudyard Kipling's thrilling epic OF
the sea and its peoples is to be filmed
largely on the decks of the picturesque
Gloucester schooner Spinney, now en-
route to Los Angeles by way of the
Panama Canal. Other authentic set
tings for the picture were filmed on
20,O00-mile expedition that sailed from
the fishing banks of Newfoundland to
the West Indies recording sea action.
