Here is team that is hard to beat-a family
whose members work together and play together
and are bound by common tie of love and mutual
interests. Such families the hope of the world.
People do not have to be cannish or unsocial
to enjoy such home life. They may have interests,
associations and pleasures outside, but their domi-
nant interest will be in the home and the family
circle.
Fortunate indeed are the children whose lots
are cast in such home. For parents who are
motivated to build such homes are not apt to
neglect the moral and spiritual values which make
life strong and beautiful.
They turn naturally to the Church and the
inspiration of the Holy Scriptures for guidance,
knowing that these will endure though everything
else may fail
Children reared in such homes become good
citizens and useful members of society.

Bluffton High Bests Pandora, 1876;
To Play Van Vert Here Friday Night

Rluffton scored in every quarter
against Pandora last Friday night
and easily dominated play all the
way as the team racked up its third
consecutive victory.
Larry Mathewson set off the
touchdown parade with a 19-yard
scoring iaunt in the first quarter,
and John Tripplehorn made the score
II to O with a one-yard plunge
early in the second frame.
Leland Garmatter then electrified
the crowd with 55-yard punt re-
turn later in the same period, and
Don Burkholder's conversion made
the score 19 to 0.
At the outset of the third period,
Garmatter sparkled again when he
returned the kickoff IS yards for a
touchdown; and Tripplehorn then
came up with his second touchdown
on an 11-yard run later in the
quarter. Burkholder added another
extra point with kick for the con-
version.
Don Tripplehorn climaxed the
scoring with a three-yard plunge ir
the fourth quarter, and pass from
Charlie Joseph to Dale Riser was
good for the extra point.
Pandora's lone tally came late in
the fourth quarter when Dean Mil
Ter ran as yards to score.
