How 10 Lose


There are two sure ways Of
losing the fight against tempta-
ton. whether in its lower or its
higher forms. One is by sheer re-
sistance. just saying No. If your
temptation is liquor, for instance,
it won't do you a particle Of good
to stand in front Of a tavern door
or to sit in a chair with a glass
in your hand just shutting your
eyes and shaking your head and
saying mo, I won't" Because,
before long, you will. Mere stub
bornness will go a long way; but
not even Jesus tried to meet
temptation with a simple empty
No. Another way to lose your
fight is to debate the question.
In the vivid story Of the first
temptation (see Genesis - the SER
pent just gets Ewes mind to
thinking about how fine that fruit

temptation was to get control Of
the kingdoms Of the world Was
that not what he came to do? Or
the third temptation again,-to
trust in the protecting care Of
God who would call that a sin?
Yet each of these, under the cir

not the right thing for Jesus, be-
cause not the best thing; and 50
he knew all these for what they
were-temptations of Satan. We
can ask many questions about
temptation: where it comes from.

how to recognize it, and SO on

to know is, How can l win?

DR.. P~ennepacker
.Kiwanis Speaker

Sidney Kiwanians received an ex-
cellent first-hand impression of the
progress of American education at
their noon luncheon today when they
had the opportunity to hear DR.. J.. S.
Pennepacker Sr. speak on the sub
Ject Let's Take a Look at Education"
Dr.. P~ennepacker, Dean of Rocky
Mountain College in Billings, stressed
three main points which he feels are
highly indicative of the trend of
American Education:
l. A new appraisal of u detectives
and philosophy of education. It Is
moving ahead. He said, Our philoso-
ply Of education is becoming rapidly
lntegrated-a philosophy that viii COM
] the sound, he r and the good"
2. A renewed outlook on the basic
importance of the cultural basis for
education. It is wonderful for young
sterS to want to specialize, but first
they must have the fundamentals in
an objective and well rounded point
of view.
3. A renewed grasp of the basic
significance of the religious philoso-
ply of life. This is not limited to our
church educational units, but is a
movement that is spreading through
out the entire educational system.
In conclusion DR.. P-ennepacker re-
emphasized the point that education
is not standing still and said, 1T has
been on the move at a good pace and
IS now plunging forward at renewed
speed"
John Bartram. program chairman,
introduced DR.. P-ennepacker and stat
ed that he had stayed over after at
tending the college and Career Day
held at the high school in order to
address this club meeting.
President Carl Johnson called upon
Homer Gorder for a brief report OF
the College and Career lay just con-
cluded. Gorder stated that it was a
tremendous success and that there
had been many remarks heard to the
effect that it was probably the best
program which many of the partici-
pants had had occasion to attend
throughout the entire state.

fire hall would cost the average
taxpayer SITS a year.
The two banks of Sidney have
guaranteed the fire department
that they will take the bonds at
an interest rate not to exceed
two and one half per cent and
retire them in ten years. This
means that the bonds will be re-
tired at the rate of $2,500.00 a
year plus interest.
Due to several things, among
them our low fire losses over the
past several years, Sidney has
changed from an 9th class city to
a 9Th class city which means that
your insurance rates have dropped
from $500 a thousand to $500 a
thousand based upon a three year
policy.
If we do not meet the required
standards of the State Fire Mar
shall and the board of Fire I'm
derwriters then we will go back
to an 9th class city and your in
surance rates will go back to
$1,000 a thousand. Therefore it
is very important that we have
proper housing for the fine fire
equipment that Sidney has. 1t may
be stated here that the replace
ment value of the present equip
ment is around $43 1000 but due
to the depreciation there can only
be approximately $4,000 worth
of insurance carried upon this
equipment.
The Sidney Volunteer Fire De-
partment urges each and every
taxpayer who has any questions
in regard to this proposed bond
issue to get in touch with one OF
the firemen and he viii gladly
answer your questions.
Your support for this bond issue
will be greatly appreciated on

The Eagles, after a cold first
half, came back to within 10
points of the Big is champion Mis-
soula Spartans in a torrid second
half, but couldn't overcome the
big Spartans in losing 1854.
Missoula had run up a 37-16
halftime edge against the Eagles.
Tom Quilting and Virgil Hundtoft
pulled the Eagles up to a 65-55
score with four minutes remain
ing. Then the Spartans played ball
control for the remainder of the
game to cinch their victory.
Both teams started slowly,

first period as Missoula went in

Spartnns early in the second pc
Rod, while his fellow all-stater,
Dennis Reber, added three tip-ins.
Sidney was still cold from the
field, with only Quilting and Dave
Johansen hitting with any degree
of accuracy.
The third period was pretty
much the same story. The tall
Spartans simply outshot the
Eagles. Sidney began using a
full-court press midway in the
third, and both teams settled
down to free throw shooting. Grin

shots for Sidney, while Powell
also added five for the Spartans,

the second period. They ran the
score to 23-12 at one time, but
the Bison came surging back on
two buckets apiece by Peres and
all-State Dan Balko. Sidney led
31-25 at halftime.
The speedy Balko outran the
Sidney squad for two fast break
buckets early in the third. Sher-
man and Frost hit followup shots,
but Peres scored a jump shot and
Balko converted two free throws
as Sidney's margin was cut to
36-35.
Then JohanSen, who had suf-
fered a minor tumble late in the
second period, returned to the
game and connected two long
shots. Balko also hit a longie, but
Sherman scored a tip-in and Sid
ney was out in front 42-37. Great
Falls never got close to the Eagles
again. Sidney led 1914 at the
end of the third.
Great Falls used a pressing
game in the fourth, but Johanson
and Smith moved past the Bison
defenders three times and passed
to Sherman under the bucket, who
tailed three quick buckets. That,
in effect, was the ball game. Sid
ney reserves played the last five
minutes of the contest and gave
up ii points, but the Bisons new
