The first game of the city series will start at the high school gym promptly at 8 o’clock. The admission will be 15c to everyone. The soldiers will line up with Clark and Kirk doing scout duty, Putts at the wheel and Nowcls and Rhoades patrolling the lines.

Miller will be back at the helm for the school five and will be aided by Eigelsbach, Healey, Hanly, Babcock and Groom. O. E. Prior brought to The Republican office yesterday a lemon that was grown on a plant at the humje of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Harris. It was one ol seven lemons on the little house tree and weighed 18 ounces, being as large as three or four ordinary lemons. In appearance it was more like grape fruit than a lemon. The tree on which the lemon was grown is about five years old. There is enough juice in each lemon to make two pies and the quality of the lemon is up to the tropical climate lemlons of smaller size.
