Lady Novice--0, I like them. One can get such a good grip on the green. Economy. An American woman went to see her negro cook, who was in bed. She gave the cook's small son, Ephraim, a dollar with which to buy a chicken for his mother. In leaving she over- heard the cook say: "Gimme dat dollar, chile, an'o git that chicken in de natchrul way." Will Soon Find Out. A Husband's Defence League has been organized in Chicago. the members of which intend to have a dollar-a-day allowance and one evening a week out, or know the reason why. They will soon know the rea- son why. I T'(~ One Better "Can you imagine anything worse than being a cornstalk and having your ears pulled by the farmers?" »How about being a potato with your eyes full of dirt?" Why Some Escape Barrister--What possible ex- cuse did you fellows have for acquitting that murderer? Juryman--Insanity. Barrister--Really! The whole twelve of you? The Night Shift. Teacher--"When was Rome built?" Boy--"At night." Teacher -- "Who told you that?" Boy -- "You did. You said Rome wasn't built in a day." Higgs--"What did you go to the hospital for?" Haggs--"Appendicitis." "Did you get it?" Jimmy (shyly)-- "I can read your thoughts, Miss Ruth." Ruth (coyly) -- "Then what makes you sit so far away." Kitty--"Jack says he can read me like a book." Phyllis--"You mustn't take Jack too literally, dear. He probably means you are a very plain type." Mayor (presenting a clock and a purse) --"The contents of the purse will, in time, inevitably disappear, but (laying his hand on the clock) here is something that will never go.u He was a simple Welsh lad. "I llove you Lleilla," he whisp- ered. "And I," she faltered, "llove you." Their llips met. And there llet us lleave them. Salesman (showing the cust- omer cycling stockings) -- "Sur- prising value, sir. Worth double the money. Latest pattern, fast colors, holeproof, won't shrink, and it's a good yarn." Customer -- "Yes, and very well told!" The emigrant was buying his ticket at the shipping office. "And what about your trunk?" demanded the clerk. "For what would I be wantin' trunk?" asked the bewildered emigrant. "To put your clothes in, of course„" replied the clerk. "What?" cried the scandalized emigrant, "and me go naked?" IVe me at last a people of real he-men. No longer is there one who hides behind a woman' skirt. )Ve can'. Parent Teachers Meet SCHOOL NOTES HIGH SCHOOL Knock-out Series--Bantams Win The regular meeting of the As- sociation was held in the Pauline Johnson School last Tuesday ev- ening. The first part of the meeting was occupied with business. It was decided to serve refresh- ments at each meeting to those who desire them, for the nomin- al charge of ten cents. After a piano duet by the Misses Freda and Joyce Herrin, four teachers of the local school staffs -- Mr. Patterson, Mr. Southern, Mr. Mitchell and Miss Ruddick,--gave short talks on modern methods of testing pup- ils, contrasting these methods with those formerly used. An unusually large attendance de- monstrated the interest of par- ents and others in this import- ant subject. Refreshments were served in the lunchroom at the close of the meeting. Last Saturday, the West Van- couver High School Bantams de- feated the South Burnaby Bant- ams with a score of 23-12. On Friday, Feb. 9th,the West Vancouver High School boys'asketballteam played against the Magee team in the Trinity United Church gymnasium. The IVest Van. boys were defeated with a score of 32-16. FOOTBALL On Wednesday, March 14th, Hollyburn seniors defeated the Pauline Johnson team by the close score of one to nil. About twenty minutes after starting one of the boys on Hollyburn banged one home. After half- time Pauline Johnson assumed the offensive but could not score. For Pauline Johnson Neville, Murray, Cripps and Edwards starred and Furukawa, Cornish, Grisedale and Stewart played well for Hollyburn. Boys Organize Baseball Club On Monday night the older boys held a meeting and decided to again enter a baseball team in the city league. This year they will probably enter the first division of the Juvenile League. Practically the same team that won the City Intermediate title last year will be on hand with probably one or two new play- ers. Mr. Condon will again man- age the team and would like the names of any boys under 19 years of age who are desirous of trying out for the team. As'he boys would like to get uniforms this year a dance will be held on Friday, March 30th in the Ambleside Hall with the Nite Lites five-piece orchestra in attendance. If you want the boys to play for their home town turn out and give them your sup- porf. BASKETBALL DOUBLE- HEADER PLAYED YESTERDAY The semor and )unioi girls basketball teams of Pauline Johnson and Hollyburn schools played a double-header in the Inglewood gymnasium yesterday afternoon after school hours. Both games were keenly contest- ed and the gymnasium resound- ed to the rooting of the scholars of both schools who had come to watch and cheer on their play- ers. The Pauline Johnson seniors ivere successful in the first game by a score of 10 to 3. Hollyburn fought hard but the superior passing and combination play of the Pauline Johnson team was too much for them and was re- sponsible chiefly for the victory of the latter. In the junior game the posi- tion was reversed, Hollyburn winning with a score of 16 to Pauline Johnson's 12. Both teams played ivith a will and the ball was kept travelling up and down and across the floor as each side gained possession of it. Combination was not so much in evidence as in the senior game, and the victory of the Hollyburn team was largely due to the greater weight and reach of their players. B. I. FEDERATION TO MEET The B.
