A right royal reception was given the Royal Entertainers when they ap peared at the Gaston Congregational church last Thursday evening under the auspices o f the young people’s society. The house was well filled and every member of the entertainers made a decided hit as was proved by the enthusiastic applause that greeted every member. The enter- tainmemt was opened with “ Annie Laurie” by the Pacific University quartette, Messrs McNeil, McCoy, Webb and Schmidke and they got an enthusiastic applause in their many numbers. Comedy sketches were given by Mrs. H. L. Russell. She gave the “ Jiner” and “ A Hen” to the great amusement o f the audience and of course came back for encore <. Hugh W. Sparks, the cartoonist, ap peared in a comedy monologue and drew life size colored pictures while talking. His stunt made a hit with the audience. People of Gaston say that if the Royal Entertainers should come back for a return date the standing room only sign would have to be put out early in the evening. The Priscilla club gave a supper to their husbands at the Artisan iiall Wednesday evening. Col. Joe V c- Burney was the only exception to the husband rule.

You have all heard the old saw that it never rains without snowing or something along that line. Well the high school and college basket ball games proved the truth of the saw and hence will keep the old phil osopher that coined the saw out of the Ananias club. In other words both teams were de feated after going through a glorious season with not a single black mark < I to their credit. They had swept all before them. But Newberg got their nannies last Friday evening. The Pacific University quintet was de feated at Newberg by the Pacific College aggregation by a score of 39 to 17 and the High School lads had it put over on them by the New berg scholars, score 39 to 15. So you see the college chumps can’t laugh at the high school boys nor can the high school fellows giggle at the collegians— probably that is the reas on that fate put both o f them in the losing column when she saw that one had to be beaten, for it is such an awful thing to be laughed at. It is too much like the wife getting stung on a bargain hat and then hav ing her brute of a man laugh at her. In the game here Irvin Turner or.e of the local boys had two o f his upper front teeth broken o ff and a set of bridge work including half a dozen teeth below knocked out. He was taken from the game but a short time went back in and played a gritty game despite the terrific pain. The won over there a few weeks ago. Saturday they go to Estacada for a game, on the following Wednesday McMinnville is here for a game.

It will be a great game. NEW SPRAYING OUTFIT.

Judge Reasoner Attends Road Meeting at Eugene— County Judge, D. B. Reasoner attended a good roads meeting at Eugene last Saturdny. I Prof. H. W.
