Arthur Brisbane THE GREATEST WOMAN THE BABY, INVISIBLE KINDNESS TO ANIMALS TWO DEAD, TWO BOTTLES. The National Council of Women organized a° “popular contest" to select the ‘Xwelve greatest women leaders in the last 100 years of American history." Mary Baker Eddy won with 102,762 votes, Jane Adams came next with 99,147 voles. All were admirable women and well chosen. But the greatest artist is he who paints the best picture, the greatest soldier is he who wins the greatest battle, and the greatest woman is she who. produces the best child. Two greatest] women in American history during the past hundred years are the mothers of Abraham Lincoln and Thomas A. Edison. . . • ' ’ Interesting family gathering in •. South Carolina penitentiary. Mrs, , Beatrice Snipes, condemned to death for killing a rural policeman, was allowed to see in the prison room her husband, serving a seven, months sentence in connection with the same killing, and her seven year old boy. Several offered to adopt the boy, put she is giving him to an uncle. P, esent also at the gathering, but not visible', was the child soon to be born before executing her. Justice 'did not always do that and is improving; At Fort Myers, Kia., a dog chased a kitten up a pine ti.ee. The kitten, afraid to climb down, stayed si ft ail day and all night. Men laughed; their wives did hot. Three of them, according jo the Associated Press, told their husbands they would not - eat a bite unlil they brought that kittfn down, and they didn't eat while the kitten stayed in the tree.* piteous ly meowing, for three .days.

Church bells were rung, sermons were preached to keep the comet away. Now the Association for the Advancement of Science learns that a comet actually did hit the earth about one million years ago* striking in South Carolina. From an airplane you can see the “scars” made by the comet’s head, 400 miles in diameter, bigger than the giant Halley comet. Scientists “comfort" you by saying that what happened in So. Carolina if it happened again would probably kill millions of human beings, but would not “destroy our civilization. ” A considerable number of depressed dwellers in that civilization would not care much if it did. A comet’s head, instead of being merely flaming gas, as you probably thought, is “a loosely collected ball of meteors,” made largely of solid iron. To be struck by such a ball, 400 miles in diameter, would not be pleasant. The one that came a million years ago left numerous big craters in the soil cf South Carolina.

TOWN BOARD HOLDS REGULAR MEETING The preplexing problem of the amount of water rent the township should pay the Syracuse Water Corporation for water used in the schools was probably settled, Tuesday evenmg when George Xanders, representing Dan Klink, trustee, appeared at | the meeting. The town board which acts as director of the Syracuse Water Corpus ation had- decided last June that the township ws-s not paying enough for wa#r used in the schools, and raised the water rent from SIOO to >154.50. The board used as a basis : for this rate the domestic rate for •be number and various kinds of water taps in the schools. This fig- ' ured $184.50. They then allowed the >.vn-hip >3O f, t heat li«ht used in the town hall where the board ffneets, one of the rooms of the Grade school building. This made the bill submitted $154.50. The bill was paid'after some bickering between the board members and trustee. • The trustee soon afterwards submitted a bill for S6O which was for . heat and janitor service, furnished the town hall by the township. The board refused to pay the bill. £mce then the question has been hanging fire. - Tuesday night the board explained to Xanders that an allowance had already been made by the board for heat and light. He seemed to bersatisfied with the explanation. The question will likely be dropped. I During the meeting Jesse Shock | appeared before the board and asked i that a water line be brought up Tto | his house on North Harrison street so that he could become a user of city I water. He explained that he would ■ I put in- a I S inch water line to his 1 J house for $l4O, which the board j could pay when the next tax distribu- ; I tion is made. He said Ahis would be |« good investment for the Water ■ I corporation for it would pay over 7 * percent on the investment. The board told Shock to put in the line for the $l4O if the town ; plumber does not want to do it for -• that price plus his charge for putting f in a curb box and shut off. 0i NEW TRIAL ORDERED s Last week Judge Royse ordered a e new trial in circuit court of the case of Mrs. Emma Rentfrow against Milton E.

THREE GAMES PLAYED BY B.B.TEAM Local Boys Win Two; Lose to Team From Nappanee I The Syracuse High School basket I ball team played three grmes dur- “ ! ing the holidays, one at North Wet>I ster, one here with Nappanee arid the third at Leesburg. The Syracuse boys won from North Webster the Friday before Christmas by a score of 39 to 14, lost to Nappanee 34 to 22, the Tuesday after Christniis, and on last Friday , evening emerged from the game r.t Leesburg on the long end of a 27 to 21 score. - Syracuse’s second team won all three of the preliminary games, deI feating North Webster 54 to 2; Nappanee 24 to 21, and Leesburg 24 to 16. To date those boys playing on the ! second team for two seasons have i won 12 straight games, and have lost, I but two in the 30 games pkyed. Last year they were defeated by Nappanee and Leesburg. North Webster Game. Syracuse started off this game with a rush, running up 17 points in the first quarter of the game. In the second quarter, North Webster’s deIfense tightened* and Syracuse only j made But North Webster ' could scoiSe only 4 . points iri this ! period. \ The third? quarter was much the ]same, the only difference being th ? t i Syracuse’s passing was better and the players scored more often. The scoia at the end of this period was Syracuse 34 to North Webster 6. * In the final quarter North Webster held Syracuse to five points whila they made 8 points. Nappanee Game. ° The Nappanee Bulldogs won the basketball game from Syracuse in the local gymnasium a week ago Tuesday, by the score, of 34 to 22, but during the progress of the game the Nappanee team had Teal scares thrown into them. - With an imposing record of victories, the Bulldogs went into the game so over confident that they had only one regular man in the starting line up. Knowing they would have to play better ball than ever before, the members of the Syracuse team played such a of ball that they led the Bulldogs 14 to Wat the end of the half. • This score was not made against subs as early in the game Ihe Nappanee coach saw that if something was not done, Syracuse would win. Sri he sent in his regulars, but they were at the little end of the score at the end of the first half. In the third quarter the size and experience of the Nappanee players started to tell, and the quarter ended with Nappanee in the lead, 19 to i 6. , ' In the fourth quarter the local boys made a desperate effort to catch the Bulldogs, and nearly did 50 twice, once when Richhart made a basket from the tip off, making the score 21 to 20 in favor of Nappanee; and again a little later, after Nappanee had gained three mbre points, Beck tossed one through making the score 24 to 22. This was the last time that Syracuse came close to tying the score for Coach Beck was forced to use numerous substitutes, as Osborn had:, been retired on personals in the last part of the third quarter, and because the local boys were tiring rapidly. Besides advantage in height, and the brilliant floor work of Loop, the fastest guard that had played on the Syracuse floor for a loqg time, Nappanee’s ability to make free shots was one of the big contributing factors in their victory. They made 10 out of 16 tries. Syracuse could only score 4 out o( 10 tries. / Syracuse’s second team adcled to a long string of victories in the first game, winning fronj the undefeated second team of Nappanee in the last quarter for a final score of 24 to 21. At the end of "the half the score was 12 to 11, Nappanee leading. 7 he first score of the last half was made by Hibschman which put Syracuse ahead by one point. ’Nappanee tied with a free throw. Baskets by Fisher and Freeman gave the second team a score of 17 at the epd of the thud quarter. Nappanee could only gain two points by free throws before the period ended which made their score 15. At the start of the last quarter Nappanee tied the 17 with a basket'. Freeman put Syracuse in the lead again with a basket but Nappanee came back with another, tying th« (Continued on Last Page)
