HNS VICTORIOUS III
WEEK END CONTESTS
DEFEAT ,S. M. U. COLTS IN
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
. NIGHT GAMES , , _
On Friday night the Grand Saline
High School Indians defeated the S.
M. U. Colts by a score of 35 to 14.
The game was much better than the
■•core indicated, the Colts staging a
powerful defense for a while which
was hard to get through. Early in the
-econd quarter the Indian combina-
tion got to working and before the
Colts realized it the Indians had the
game salted away.
The Colts had a good team but/he
defense and offense staged by the
Indians caused their downfall. Hol-
man, of the Colts, was the outstand-
ing star for S. M. U. He was an ex-
cellent goal tosser and broke up quite
a number of the Indians’ steller plays.
Hume of the Colts also played well.
He showed to be very fast, but not as
good at shooting the basket as Hol-
man.
The entire Indian team starred. In
a preliminary game the Grand Saline
Indians’ second team defeated the
Mineola team 44 to 7. The star for
the Indians was Hargrove with 27
points to his credit.
Saturday’ Game
The Indians again defeated the S.
M. U. Colts by a score of 30 to 14.
The game was much like the night
before, the Colts putting up a de-
fense that the Indans could not break
through for the first quarter. Again
in the second quarter the .Indians
*t«ged a wonderful offense game and
the game was on ice before the Colts
realized it.
Holman was the shining star for
the Colts, but close on his tracks ran
Hume.
The entire Indian team again show-
ed themselves to be a superb team.
Officials for both nights were:
Pinkerton, Referee; Lon Morris, An-
ders, Timekeeper; “Ox", storekeeper.
never before. The game ended with
a score of 36 to 1C in the Maidens
favor.
The second string which was giveqg^ould there be, Ruby?
a chanee in this game, played well.
The officials were: Banks, Referee;
Ox, scorekeeper; Andrews, timekeep-
“OXEN’S OX”
Don’t forget Johnnie Perretta and
his Y. M. H. A. Hebrews, January 16.
Adm. 25 and 36c. On January 22 and
23 the Indians take on Frank Bridges
and his little Baylor Bears.
Don’t forget Tuesday night, Janu-
ary '26, the Durant Savages.
Never mind a defeat Maidens. They
have to come some time or other. The
Indians got oiw once. Stay right in
there and fight.

WILL HOLD MID-
TERM EXAMINATIONS
On Thursday and Friday of this
week the first of the two most im-
portant series of examinations of the
year will be held. These are the mid-
term exams. The teachers have been
stressing the need or reviewing for
these and consequently the students
have been studying hard. These exa-
minations will determine whether
most of the students pass the first
half of the years work.

with Canton High School girls in the
Canton Gym. When the game be-
gan both sides played well and Can-

up a high score.
In the latter part of the game the

court. But defeat was ours by nine
points. The score stood 20 to 29 in
Canton’s favor.

WHAT ABOUT NEXT YEAR
--- IS
titHAT kind of person shall I bein'
VV next year?
Put that question to yourself; ask
il seriously, repeatedly and with the
determination of giving it an intelli-
gent, workable answer.
It can do you no harm even if you
fail to find a satisfactory reply.
When it comes up to you, don't
shrug your shoulders, look the other
way. or try to pass It by without a
friendly nod and a hearty handshake.
You have nothing to fear.
Ask It again; “W’liat kind of (ver-
son shall I be next year?”
Every day you are undergoing a
physical and mental change.
Yon are improving or deteriorating.
Time Is acting Imperceptibly on
your hone and blood, on your sinew
and mind. You are gaining or losing.
Life today is a preparation for the
life of tomorrow, Its new problems,
chauging form between every sunrise
and sunset.
Present life Is the pathway to fu-
ture life in the process of making,
with which you have much to do.
If you are going to he something j
worth while In the years that, lie
ahead, you would better begin today.
If you are cruel, vindictive, quar-
relsome. tyrannical and neglectful to-
day. the probabilities are that you
will be the same tomorrow.
If you shirk duty this morning, the
old gra.v-hearded timekeeper tomorrow
morning will mark you a “shirker”
without arching Ids brow or asking a
question.
The man or woman who cannot lis-
ten to wise counsel without becoming
resentful or abusive, who cannot
weigh and decide questions in fulr-
ness, is In a position where he or she
should stop and look ahead.
Tomorrow demands pay for yester-
day’s follies.
Wranglers of today are likely to be
bigger wranglers tomorrow, exhibit-
ing more selfishness with a larger
stock of temper, turning their wrath
loose on any person within their
reach.
If in youth or In middle life, men
and women do not realize that they
are preparing for the future, they are
doomed to an Isolated old age, too Im-
tent to make a hid for sympathy or
success.
The secret of preparing for next
