-Sportsmanship Lauded

Conduct of Plentywood players and fans in gen
eral at the football game in Scobey two weeks ago
resulted in the following statement to be issued
from the Scobey high school. says the Daniels County
Leader:
while it is not our aim to give intimate play
by play descriptions of games. there are times when
we like to make certain observations.
Last week such a case presented itself TO us.
when our good and intense rivals from Plentywood
appeared on the scene. 1t is true that there was a
tremendous build-up inboth camps, but during the
intermission one Of the finest displays of sports
manship was presented when the N club of Plenty
wood and the Scobey boosters joined hands and
circled around on the %gridiron.
1--WE wish TO take this opportunity to throw all
the orchids we possibly can at Plentywood fans, its
coach and its team; they have every reason to be
proud, and we extend our sincere congratulations
to them all"
Plentywood students, players and coach and
other fans who attended the Scobey-Plentywood con-
test at scobey may well be proud of the fine COM
pliment paid them by the Scobey school. For years
the keenest of competitive rivalry has been mani
tested between the two cities, not only in high school
competition, but dating back to the days of highly
organized baseball. Each year the keen anxiety OF
each team to win for their community has con-
tinued at high pitch.
That this spirit of compitition is friendly, as
commented on by the Scobey school, is gratifying.
such craftsmanship as displayed in competitive
games between the schools. cements a friendly rela-
tionship which is above all, the real spirit and pur-
pose of competition.
The sincere congratulations offered by Scobey
after defeat is a real example Of sportsmanship.
They are to be congratulated.

Credit For Everybody

Considerable concern is expressed over the in
creasing use Of credit by such a large proportion OF
the American people. Men are mortgaging their
futures, these critics say, by buying so many things
on the instalment plan, That, in the minds OF old
school economists is all wrong. What If everybody
who has pledged part of his income should lose his
job? How could he keep up his payments?
One answer is that if everybody lost their jobs
at the same time 1t wouldn't make any differance.
for the whole country would be broke. But the SER
ious answer to the critics of the system OF buying
goods on deferred payments is that 1t has been
in operation for so many years, and has so much
experience behind it, that there are figures as exact
as actuarial tables from which it can be predicted
just how many out of a given number of instruments
buyers will fail to meet their payments.
In the automobile trade the experience is that
the loss on instalment purchase accounts is
less than half of one percent-about SO cents on
every 800 note. About the same proportion holds
good in other lines commonly sold on instalments.
From time immemorial houses have been bought
and sold on sold payments. Probably two-thirds of all
furniture sold in the past 100 years has been moved
on the same basis. Why not. then, buy other neces-
sary or useful goods in the same way? Most people
find it easier to pay off an obligation than to save
up for a cash transaction.

Corinth more than once as the
trusted representative of Paul who
delegated him to organize and COM
plete the collection for the poor
Christions of Judea which the
apostle was so anxiou TO gather. and
also to restore order at a time of dis
affection in the Corinthfan parish.
There is another gap in the story
of Titus until the period covered
by Paul's brief letter to him. Here
we learn that he had accompanied
the Apostle on a visit of Crete, and
had been left there by him to "set
right the things which still require
attention, and appoint Elders in
every town" Paul carges him to
maintain Wholesome teaching" to
assert his authority, and TO avoid
foolish controversial" There is a
tradition that Titus served long as
the Bishop of the Church in Crete.
Titus. like Timothy. was a very
reliable, efficient helper to Paul. He
was tempered with tact and COM
mon sense. 1t Is a pleasure to get
the fleeing glimpses from the New
Testament pages of his fine char
acter and devoted service.

Text: Titus 2:11.
We know little about Titus. Mel

Paul on the fateful visit TO Jerusa-

won a favorable decision.
Titus then drops out of sight for
the next few years. but 1t is reason

Paul and assisted him in his evang-

ANTHOCYANNURIA

Kenneth, aged six, came running
with Johns little pot. John, aged
two, trotted along behind. Both
childish faces shone with an excite
ment that was compounded of pride
and fear. Kenneth felt important as
the bearer Of startling evidence,
John In the accomplishment of an
unprecedented feat. Within the pot
was the liquid which John had just
produced. 1t was a rather vivid red.
Now ii mother had been scared,
had looked startled, had cried: Oh
dear whatever is that? then the
children's anxiety would quickly
have changed to panic. Fear would
have struck deep into the plastic
minds and left it's scars perhaps for
life. But mother showed not even
\ trace Of surprise. All she said was
Beetroots and from the tone OF her
voice the youngsters knew at once
that whatever lay behind the mys-
terry it was nothing that they need
fear.
Then mother explained 70 ,dem
chat when little boys or girls eat
lots of beets sometimes the color
from the beets goes into the blood,
from the blood into the kidneys and
comes out into the urine. If she had
been a doctor talking to grownups
she might have added that the beet
root dye is named a~nthocyanin and
the passage of beet-stained urine
goes by the grand name of antho-
c~yaninuria. That's something for
you to be proud of. isn't it, John;
ever though 1t is m than
you supposed?
Happy the children who a buf-
fer themselves from dread of the
unknown by the wisdom and tact
of a mother who understands.
