You CAN make a cultivated pearl by drop ping grain of sand inside an oyster.
 The oyster surrounds this irritating grain with a secretion. Slowly, the pearl grows.
 When it's az big as q seed, you might remove 1t and sell 1t. It would be worth something much, but something.
 But you'd be much wiser to leave 1t therc-month after month, year afteryear, while 1t continued to grow. By and by it would be worth much more. And if, at the same time, you went on growing more and more pearls in more and more oysters you'd be surprised how your tfortuae would

Last Thursday, We had basketball
as our subject. A little more about
that swell game-Basketball is play
ed by more than 100000 players,
more players than any other sport.
It is played in IS countries and has
in a single year, drawn 10000, 900
spectators. The game is so popular
that in 1898, Puerto Rico had ma
tional celebration for three weeks,
because that year marked the 25th
anniversary of the introduction Of
basketball to the island. Girls started
playing basketball about 35 years
ago. AS time went on more and more
girls teams came into existence,
most of them high school and COL
lege, until-then in 1926 the Amateur
Union arranged the first tourna-
ment for girl basketballers. The first
AAU championship was played at
Pasadena, Calf, and was won by a
group which called themselves the

estimate well over one million girl
players.
