Twenty different qualities. Every required style

simply a question of how long it will be before you
find it out for yourself. MUNSING UNDERWEAR
is made to fit tailored as it were to fit the form
and finished as no other underwear is finished. There
are no bunglesome seams, no clumsily worked button
holes, no loosely knit ankles or cuffs, and best of all
they're always just the same shape and retain their
elasticity until they're worn out, doesn't matter how
often they have been to the laundry.

The basketball season was opened
in Dallas last week with two games,
in both of which the local players
proved easily victorious.
Friday night, the first game was
played between the skating team of
Dallas and the Falls City Rink team,
the final soore being 28 to 7 in favor of
the home team.
The game was slow until the latter
part of the second half, when the Dal
las five seemed at last to "hit their
gait," so to speak, and the last five
minutes of the play was little more
than a grand basket throwing exhibi
tion with the militia players as the
star performers. At no time during
the game was the score close enough
for the visiting team to cherish hopes
of winning, and the local team proved
itself the superior aggregation in
every point
The scoring for the home team was
made as follows: Magers, four field
goals; Elder, four; Williams, three;
Brown, one; and four points on fouls.
Falls City scored : Ellis, one ; Siefarth,
one; Barber, one; one point on fouls.
The performance of Friday night,
however, was elipsed on the following
evening by the work of the Dallas
College team in its first league game
for the season, played in the gym
nasium against the team from
MoMinnvllle.
The size of the crowd In attendance
showed that the basketball fans of
Dallas are still as loyal as ever to
their team and eager to do all they
oan by force of good will and lung
power to boost the local five on to
victory. McMlnnville was also well
represented in the throng on the side
tines, about thirty enthusiastic sup
porters having accompanied the team
to Dallas.
The visitors played a plucky game,
cond ucting themselves in a thoroughly
.sportsmanlike manner and never
giving up the fight to the very last
minute of the play, although it was
clearly seen within the first minute of
the play, that their defeat was
inevitable. Matched against an aggre
gation of players, stronger, heavier,
more speedy and far more perfect in
team work than they, the outcome was
never in doubt for a single instant,
but the McMlnnville team, by its
plucky playing and the way in which
it fought against every point scored
by the Dallas five made a fast and
interesting game out of what might
otherwise have degenerated into a
mere farce of goal throwing practice.
Rice, as forward for Dallas, was
undeniably the star of the evening,
playing like a wizard and scoring
two baskets to every one made by his
companions. Out of the 33 points
made by Dallas, 19 were credited to
him, 16 on field goals and 3 on foul
throwing. Fenton scored 8 points on
field baskets, Simonton 4 and Ballan-
tyne 2. E. F. McKee, of McMlnnville,
lead in goal throwing for his side,
scoring 4 on field goals and three on
fouls. Richards, the only other man
on the visiting team to score, threw
two field baskets. Mackle, of Portland,
acted as referee.
The next league game to be played
in this city will be between Dallas and
Y. M. C. A., of Portland, and is
scheduled for December 15.
Those who attend the "Old Time
Concert" to be given at the Woodman
Hall, Wednesday night (tomorrow)
under the direction of Mrs. Mae
Wright, musical director in Dallas
College, will have an opportunity of
hear! net something novel in the line
of musical entertainment and at the
same time of extending well-merited
assistance to the Dallas Free Library,
for the benefit of which the entertain
ment was arranged.
The concert will begin at 8 o clock,
and the program will consist entirely
of the best songs of a few generations
ago, songs that were classics at that
time, have stood the test of years and
are still recognized as classics among
music lovers of today.
For an evening at least, the sharp,
catchy ragtime, whose spirit seems to
permeate the very charaoter of nearly
all of our modern songs, will be de
throned and in its place will reign
the old songs, the sweetness of whose
melodies and the richness of whose
harmouies has never been equalled.
The program is long but every num
ber is a -gem and to give an added
feature of attractiveness to the enter
tainment, the singers will appear in
the costume of "ye old times" which
they are representing. The people of
Dallas always have been music lovers
and the concert tomorrow night will
doubtless be given the large and
appreciative patronago it richly de
serves.
