WINS ANOTHER GAME DEFEATS WESTON SCHOOL BY DECISIVE SCORE A MUSICAL EVENING IN STAN IT ELD 1FOME Handicapped by Intercollegiate Rules, Boys Retaliate by Piling up Score of SO Against Home Team's 12 Next Game Will be With Columbia College of Milton. By the decisive score of 30 to 12 the Pendleton high school basketball five took the Weston high into camp on the latter's floor last Saturday even ing. The game is said to have been fast and hard from start to finish, but the victors completely surpassed their rivals in their ability to pass the ball. ," Victory was all the more sweet by reason of the fact that the Pendleton beys were compelled to play an alto gether different game from the one to which they are accustomed. The intercollegiate rules were sprung on them when they arrived at Weston and they were compelled 1 to play ac cording to them instead of in accord ance with the rules laid down In Spal ding's 'official guide. The heavier guards and centre or the Pendleton team made it impossible for the Weston boys to work to ad vantage while the local forwards were so speedy and light that they evaded their guards with comparative ease. Of the 30 points, 18 were made by McDill, eight by Rader and four by Sturdivant. The next game played will be against the Columbia College team of Milton. This team is recognized as one of the strongest in the county and a hard game is expected. Though the P. H. S. has no coach, the ability of Captain McDill to handle his men will bring them out on top if such Is possible. The line-up will probably be the same as in the Weston game with Sturdivant and Rader, forwards; Mc Dill center; Devine and C. Jordan, guards. On Tuesday evening, November 30, Dr. and Mrs. Alexander Reid of Stan field, gave another one of their series of musical evenings. This one being in honor of Miss Greta Bristow of Eugene, and Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Croarkln of Echo. A splendid musi cal program was participated In by the following people: Vocal solo by Mrs. Croarkin, Miss Bristow, Mrs. Myers and Miss Saw yers. Also a duet was rendered by the two latter ladies. Miss Sawyers played several pianos solos in her charming manner, and Dr. Reid de lighted all with his violin music. After the program, five hundred was enjoyed until a late hour, when a delicious luncheon was served by Mrs. Reid. The hostess was assisted by Mrs. Harry Bartholomew and Mrs. Frederick Everitt. The guests were: Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Croarkin, Echo; Mr. and Mrs."F. E. Everitt, Echo; Mr. and Mrs. Harry Bartholomew, Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Brown, Miss Sawyers, Mr. and Mrs. Myers, Dr. and Mrs. Crome; Messrs. Rorke and George Coe, Misses Sawyers, Chloe Stanfield and Miss Greta Bristow, Eugene. RACE SUICIDE THINS THE SUNDAY SCHOOLS Mrs. Carrie Furry of Hermiston, is in the city today to do some Christ mas shopping. Have You That Same Old Cod that you have every Winter?

Leading Druggists of Eastern Oregon. New York. Declaring himself to be a believer with Theodore Roose velt that "race suicide" is to be re gretted. Governor Foot of New Jer sey addressed the fifty-first annual convention of the New Jersey Sunday School association, in East Orange. He ventured the guess thatt he reason why the Sunday schools of today are Hot as large as they used to be, is not so much because the children of the church people do not attend, as that the church people have not the chil- I dren in as large numbers as formerly. "I am not sure," said the governor, "whether it is that we do not send the children to Sunday school or that we do not have the children in our homes to send. I do think, though, that the latter is true of the people who consider themselves the best in the community In our time. We find the children today in what we see fit to call the slums. "There never was a time when there was more need for the urging upon the conscience of the people of New Jersey and every other state of attendance upon church and the re turn to the old fashioned doctrines of the Bible. Something, either golf or automobiles, perhaps, makes us neg lect the influences of the church on Sunday. "The staff of the government is the Bible. You strike from it the Bible and its influences and there are no anchors which you can throw out to save the government." MAMMOTH GOBBLER FRIGHTENS HUNTER Huntington, Pa. A mammoth gob bler has inhabited the great forest of Warrior's ridge, near McConnelstown, for six years.

The stamps are on sale at all the drug stores and eaoh one of these places reports that the demand Is on the in crease. The members of the two women's clubs who secured the stamps for this city are gratified at the success of the sales thus far and feel sure that the sales will Increase as the people real ize the great amount of good which they can do at such small expense to themselves. Aside from the assist ance which the purchase of the stamps means to the sufferers they are also very desirable to place on h.tters and packages during the holi day season.
