RELIEF CORF OFFERS PRIZE

FIFTH AND SIXTH GRADE CHILDREN TO WRITE ON HISTORICAL TOPIC

The Woman’s Relief Cor]) of Greencastle is offering a series of prizes to stimulate patriotism in the minds of the children. The prizes consist of silk flags which are to be given to the winner and the second best in the fifth and sixth grades of each ward in the city. The competition is to consist of short essays on the subject: “Why I Love My Flag and Country." The composition is to be of about one hundred words. It is desirable that each pupil write upon this subject. No names but numbers should appear on manuscripts, teachers should keep names corresponding to numbers. The teachers are to select the five best, judging to be based as much on the thought contained therein as upon literary form. These five compositions are to be submitted to the officers of the Parent-Teachers Association of each ward, who are to select the three best from each grade. These three are then to be submitted to a committee from the Women’s Itelief Corp, who will make the final decision. All manuscripts which go to the Women’s Relief Corp are to be submitted to Mrs. R. E. Richards, who will call on the president of the Parent-Teachers Association for them. The teachers selection should be made not later than Thursday noon, February 21st. The Parent-Teachers Association should be through with their selection by noon Saturday 23d. The W’omen’s Relief Corp Committee will act Satunlay afternoon. The prize winners will be notified through their teachers on Monday morning, February 25th. They will be invited to attend the meeting of the Women’s Relief Cor]) in their rooms over the Central National Bank after school Monday. They will there be awarded the prize and the winners of the first prize will be invited to read their compositions. This plan has the hearty approval of B. W T . Kelly, superintendent of the city schools.

And the Strong Frankfort Team Also Suffered Defeat. Bedford Had

Narrow Escape

Vincennes Lost

Upsets in high school basket ball circles featured the play in net games over Indiana on Friday night. Anderson, the team picked by many to win the 1924 state cahmpionship, suffered an unexpected defeat at the hands of the Huntington quintet by a 34 to 30 score in an overtime contest. The regular playing time ended 28 all, and in the extra period Huntington made their shots at the basket count while Coach Stagg’s proteges were held to a lone field goal. Frankfort, the fighting team with eighteen consecutive victories, met its Waterloo at the hands of the plucky Jefferson high school squad at Lafayette. This upset also ended 34 to 30 with Frankfort trailing on the short

end of the count.

Down at Bedford last night, the Martinsville aggregation threw a scare into the Stone City lads and nearly defeated Coach Abbett’s five. Bedford won by one point, the final score being 40 to 39. It was an overtime affair and the Artesian City outfit made Bedford step to win. Bloomington emerged victorious over Vincennes, 44 to 30, but the Alices were weakened by the absence of Mayo and Allega from the line up . If there two stars had played it might have been a different story.

TROUBLE COMING AT HERRIN CHICAGO, Feb 16—“Hell’s going to break loose in this bloody Williamson county as soon as the troops leave,” S. Glenn Young, deposed prohibition czar of the Illinois bad lands predicted in an interview here today. “I’m going back there next week and as sure as there’s a God in Heaven, some one’s going to pay for the murder of Caesar Cagle” Young

declared with spirit.

The slaying of Cagle, constable of Herrin, ami chief assistant to Young in his spectacular booze raids, preci-

Williamson county a week ago which made it necessary for 1800

We miss his coming footsteps,
