The Basketball Tournament

The sectional tournament will bring many

teams to Richmond late this week to compete for

the championship honors of this part of Indiana

The Richmond hieh school will entertain the

visitors. ,

The value of athletics to develop the physical strength "of the players directly and to foster school spirit is universally recognized the country over.. Iii facl, competition between amateur

teams, between high schools, and colleges is rap

idly being considered the ideal form of sport.

The tournament will give citizens ample opportunity to judge for themselves the spirit that is "developed by contests of this kind. The rivalry between the schools is intense but is kept well

within the restrains dictated by true sportsman ship.

The boys and girls of the Richmond high

school have built up an enviable reputation for the fair treatment which they have accorded to the visitors with whom they have competed and for the other teams that are bn the floor. This is as it should be. The visitors are our guests, entitled to every consideration and favor which we can show them. This spirit, so noticeable in former district contests, bespeaks the presence of a healthy understanding of the honor bestowed upon the high school in permitting it to entertain the visitors. One of the commendable aspects of the tournament is the presence of hundreds of parents who enter into the spirit of the occasion with the same glee and enthusiasm shown by their chil

dren. When fathers and mothers honor a gathering of this kind with their presence, it serves to bring them closer to their children and to strengthen the ties of understanding and of mutual appreciation. The whole city hopes the visitors will enjoy themselves thoroughly while they are our guests

and return home with abundant praise for our

hospitality, irrespective of the outcome of the tournament.

Oh Man!

, The Good Times Ahead "Authorities of note, discussing broadly the

general economic world situation, discover no reason for apprehension or discouragement in

the minds of the American public," says the

Cincinnati Enquirer. "They point, out that

threatened wars have not matured; that our rail

roads have not been wrecked and ruined; that Socialism has not engulfed us ; that France is not financially hopelessly submerged ; that Germany

has not become the prey of the Soviets all of which dire events, and' more, sedulously have

been prophesied with pessimistic pertinacity.

"Specifically they deprecate the idea that any great strike in this country by the coal men can paralyze the railroads, disorganize all "business

and impose widespread suffering upon the

people. ,

"Laboring men are not fools. Labor in Amer-' ica commands the highest remuneration in the world. For all the croaking of the ravens of revolution, this country really is prosperous. Industrial rehabilitation, in fullest measure, must come. It is at hand ! Every great strike of the pasthas been settled. This country never will

stand for a ruinous strike such as is prophesied by the speakers of evil omen. The round-table hereafter will be as effective in industrial as in physical warfare. Productive work is the need of the hour. The fear-crying storm birds must be chased from the skies. Germany, France and England are at work. "But, notwithstanding all the talk, there is quite, as active a diplomacy in the relations of coal operators and coal miners as there is in the relations between nations. There is not much

real danger of a strike of formidable proportions in the bituminous field. There are able men. at the head of the miners' organization, and they are aware that there are economic laws that are immutable. They know that . manufacturing interests, interests which demand the soft-coal output, are recovering from the war-time depression, but cannot achieve the impossible. They knoW, too, that every indication points to an early access of industrial activity. They will not be so foolish as to retard the coming of the good times ahead."

Mary calls them "big, spoiled babies." She says her troubles are numerous enough without a husband, but yet s'posin' she did happen to marry, she woud rather have a tired business man than a singer. "Not for anything in the world would I promise to love, cherish and obey a singer," is her fervent assertion.

Rippling Rhymes By Walt Mason

After Dinner Stories A fashionable wedding was being

celebrated in Philadelphia at one of the exclusive social clubs. One couple rrrived very early, and in alighting from the vehicle the gentleman slipped and ripped his trousers in a very noticeable manner. His wife hurried him into the "ladies' retiring room " j Owing to their early arrival, there was no one in this room but the maid, who was well supplied w 1th needle, thread, buttons, etc, for emergencies. The wife placed her husband behind a screen; he passed his trousers over to her. and she handed them to the maid for repairs. Before the trousers had been mended a number of women were trying to get in to the room, and the wife was trying to hold them out. At last she turned in despair to a door just back of her husband, pulled it open, shoved him through and slammed the door. The husband pounded on the door and yelled, "For goodness sake, let me in! I am in the ballroom!"

GOING TO PIECES My years are ten and fifty, and when I meet my friends, I say I'm feeling nifty, my cheerful spiel ascends; I cry, "Ach, donnerwetter, life's autumn is good fun! I wasn't feling beter when I was twenty-one!" I bravely make a showing of being free from cares; but I am always going to some one for repairs. My molars drive me nutty," and need the dentist's skill; he plugs them ud with rmttv nri iire

I'm sighing and dodgasting when I am all alone, for I must buy a casting to fix my collar bone; as dally I grow older, some grievous want appears; I need a wooden shoulder, I need some new tin ears.

dotty as on my way I wend, may even say I'm naughty to four-flush and pretend; but I believe It's better to spring a cheerful wheeze than talk of gout and tetter and foot-and-mouth disease.

No. 107 The Changing Card. To change the face of a playing card by merely passing the hand over it Is simple enough if you have the right kind of a card. ' Bend two playing cards Inward, cross ways at the center, and the upper half of one back to back with the lower half of the other. Then glue, the double card on to another, as shown in the diagram. Bend the flap downward, and hold It tightly. The card will then appear quite normal, especially if held on the face of a pack. By simply passing the band over the card, and pushing up the flap, the denomination of the card Is Instantly and Invisibly changed. CesvricM, lttl. by Public Ledger Coutpomg

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up" - . QUESTS vThe beauty of friendship lies so much in its elasticity. Your friend doesn't even have to be around to give you happiness. Most of us carry our friends with us anyway. How often I place in the vacant chair opposite me at the hotels and strange places I so often frequent, the smiling and inspiring personality of some friend as my guest! The little snatches we get of those whom we love is a precious inheritance. It's a rapidly moving world with no permanent stops. Therefore it is that guests bring to us such happiness and such newness of experience and expression. Notice how all people are at once animated the minute they meet friends unexpectedly or on occasions of special invitation. And how still and dull and empty the whole world seems when the train, or simply time and space, leads our guest away, We need guests many of them. It's a poor home that doesn't have its stream of guests to help mend many of the chords of its experience, which get snapped so easily and so often. I like to be a guest. I like to be shown into the "guest room." I always think of all the good things possible so as to honor that room and make it just a little more beautiful for-future guests. But, most of all, I like to have guests that I may call my own! How wonderful to have been a guest in the home of Stevenson, or Browning, or Wendell Phillips, or Lincoln! The story of Jesus and Zaccheus comes to me. Zaccheus was a small man In size so he climbed into a tree that he might see Jesu3 when he came along on his trip through the town in which Zaccheus lived. Jesus wa3 too keen a student of human nature not to understand Zaccheus, so he looked up and called to him to come down for he was to be a guest at his house that day. I can imagine the thrill that 6hot through Zaccheus, at that announcement. It doesn't take a full purse to have -frequent guests Just a full heart.

FEW FOLKS HAVE GRAY HAIR NOW j

Druggist Says Ladies' Arc Using Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Hair that loses its color and lustre, or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time recipe. Nowadays we get this famous mixture improved by the addition of other ingredients by asking at any drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,' which darkens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that no one can possibly tell It has been applied. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning the gray hair disappears; but what delights the. ladles with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of abundance.
