Not long ago a representative of a motion picture concern with offices here and a member of a aportlng goods firm had made a pneumatic ball, three feet in diameter, which they preeent'-d to members of Station It in thin city, with an outline of the new game. Eight men. four on a aide, climbed into their oilskin, t-oupled up four linea of hose at a playfleld, adjoining the station, put tho ball in tho center J of the field between the two team, i and started to play. The object of i the game was to force the ball to the opponent's goal line by means of stream of water. Driven by the powerful atreama from the hose, the ball performed strange antics, leaping high into the air and hjirtllng back and forth aerobe the field to the delight of a crowd of spectators that had gathered to watch the new game. The playfleld was soon a sea of mud and the ref eree became o waterlogged that hla whistle died in an inarticulate gurgle.

The birth , of the Irian Free State haa led to renewed talk In aoino quarter , of "home, .rulo all around," that I, autonomy; for Scot land and Wales as apart from Eng land proper. ' s Home rule for Wnlea has already entered the range of practical poll tics. say an article in the rait' Mall Ga zette. . Hitherto there have been among Welsh politician . two schools of thought. One haa urged tho setting up of a Welsh nocretaryHhlp similar to the office of the secretary for Scot land, ao that Welsh 'administration may first be disentangled, from Eng lish affairs; the other favoring a com prehensive home rule scheme without any preliminaries. Prime Minister Lloyd Goorga, him self a Welshman has hinted that he would look with favor on, a Compre hensive home rule measure.'-., This prompted the Wolsh national party at Westminster, composed of all the Welsh members of the house of commons to draft and adopt a home rule scheme as the basis of a measure to be Introduced In parliament at the earliest opportunity. This has. In turn, fired the Scottish members, who at a party meeting have appointed a committee to confer with the Welsh members with a vlevr to Joint action. r is said to have furnished the city's fire fighting- force with a pastime that bids fair to create a new sphere of athb-tte activity.

Alice and Maude uro IS years old, und both are furnicra' daughters. Court action wua brought by J. K. Hansen, father of Alice, when the Vinlund school bourd after adoptinit n rule requiring pupils to wear skirts three Inches below the knees, de cided that the skirts ot Alice and Maude did not, meet the specifica tions,' and eatpvtlod them until such time as their skirts should be lowered. On application of Mr. Hansen. Judge Muuna Issued u teniporary oi-uer directing the school board to permit the girls to return to their studies.
