The Hume Bask- et ball teams played two excellent games with B. H. S. Thursday after- noon. The scores stood, Butler’ girls 18, Hume girls 12; Hume boys 30, But- ler boys 19. The boys certainly stood firm and made a good fight. Only the fact that the team was made up of boys who had not played together reg- ularly caused the score to show a de- pression on the Butler side. However this team will practice together this week and be ready to beat Rich Hill next Friday. Come and see! A few more Butler boys to help the girls yell might be a good thing. The girls cer- tainly can.give strong support to the players but the boys ought to help. Wednesday before Thanksgiving the Faculty gave us a surprise by furnish- ing the chapel program. The curtain rose and presented to our view the sol- emn and august row of teachers and one vacant chair. A cry of ‘‘Where’s Press?’”’ arose but Mr. Orear did not appear—then. Mr. Coonrod rose and made a brief introductory speech to the effect that chapel programs were as a rule eharacterized with entirely too much levity and frivolity. Therefore the Faculty had deemed it wise to set an example of a more serious and prop- er nature. The program was as fol- lows:—with a few remaks by one who heard it. « : 1—The Birth and History of the Unit- ed States.—Mrs. Hill. (This was very poetical and much en- joyed. At the close of her speech Mrs. Hill requested the assembly to rise and sing ‘‘The Star Spangled Banner.’’) 2 —Monologue by the Faculty. | (Miss Davis told a thrilling tale of the villianous capture and the brave rescue of the beautiful daughter of a; mint-spy (mince pie.) The other teach- | | ers impersonted the various characters. ) | 8.—Vocal Solo.—Miss McGregor. | 4,—Farmer John’’— Representing the Scivnce Dept.—W. L. Coonrod. | 6.—German Folk (?) Daree.—Repre- senting the German Dept. — Miss’ Davis. 7. —Stories to tell Children (?) —Miss Smith. | (This was sadly interrupted by a ter- | rffic clatter and banging on the stairs announcing the approach of: the next | performer with sweeper and shovel in | hand.) | 8.—House Cleaning and ‘Janitor’s | Dept.—Mr. Orear. | 9.—Concert Recitation by Faculty. 10.—Oration of Demosthenes. —Mrs. Hill. or.—Acted by the Principal of the But- ler High School. . 12.—Representation of Commercial Dept.—by the present ‘‘incumbrance.”’ 13. —Reading—Miss Snider. : 14,.—Song—‘‘John Brown’s Baby.’’— Faculty. The yell leaders then took the floor and a lively mass meeting was held. At the close of that, the teacher asked that all students kindly “‘cut’”’ the next two classes. cessful assembly this year. Sophmore Notes. last Friday we had never heard of any- one’s hair growing a yard in one night. Miss McGregor. when we saw that her pretty little ring- lets had grown to such an enormous length, that we demanded an explana- tion. She explained that it was all be- | cause of her Thanksgiving dinner. | However, we hesitate to believe that al ‘Have Youa Telephone? li so It will sure pay you to call up 77 when you want something good to eat.

We find it-very difficult to understand but we like it | just the same.

The Sophmores entertained the Sen- iors last Friday evening at Jaunita Hol- loway’s. Games were played and re- freshments were served, after which all departed at a late hour. Freshman Notes. The Freshmen are progressing rapid- week we had a splendid attendance of ; ninety-nine per cent., but last Friday there were about twenty absent. It was on account of Thanksgiving. The j pupils who live in the country went home to spend Thursday and ate a big turkey dinner, and when Friday came |they either wern’t able to come to | school or had made up their minds that * | they wanted a longer vacation. Just the same they all looked happy and jol- ly when they came back to school Mon- day morning. The Freshmen boys have a strong Basket Ball team and at practice they j have made agreat showing. We are depending upon them to win the loving It would be a great honor for | the Freshmen class to take the cham- | pionship fromthe higher classes.

We wish them good luck and will-be glad to support them when they play. DON’T BE MISLED This Advice. Kidney trouble is dangerous and | often fatal. Don’t experiment with something new and untried. Use a tested kidney remedy. Begin with Doan’s Kidney Pills. Used in kidney troubles 50 years. Recommended here and every- where. * A Butler citizen’s statement forms convincing proof. It’s local testimony—it can be in- vestigated. Mrs. J. C. Crutsinger, 412 Adams “Doan’s Kidney Pills have been used by my self and two others of my family with the best possible results and I do not hesitate to recommend them for pains in the back and hips and Kidney weakness, ‘especially in children’s cases. Our supply of Doan’s Kidney Pills was procured at Clay’s Drug Store. I recommended them before in return for the benefit they had brought.
