first game of the season here, and
this is the return game. Our boys

gained much useful experience, so

CITY MISSION WILL
NAVE A NEW HOME
WatMon Store I loom leased for the
(Vnnltig Winter Will lie lirad-
log I loom and Night School
The final arrangements were com
pleted this week, and as soon as the
stock of groceries has been disposed
of In the Watson building It will be
occupied by the City Mission, a lease
having been signed for a term of
rronths.
The mission has occupied rooms
over the Watson store for several
months past, but they are now prov
ing inadequate for the purpose. It
had been planned to make the Mis
sion a place where many different
meetings could be held, but the lack
of space prevented this. Now that a
larger and a first-floor room has been
secured, the night school will be held
there instead of at the Central
school, and in addition It will be the
meeting place for the Young Men's
Bible Club, and will be used as a
reading room.
The city recently donated a tidy
arm for the support of the City Mis
sion, and it is felt that if the city
takes that much interest In the pro
ject, it should be enlarged as much
aB possible and made a place where
men and women can spend their
leisure hours in enlightening and
broadening surroundings.
The Greek night school has thus
far proved an unqualified success,
and It will be continued as long as
this spirit prevails. A night school
for colored people may also be intro
duced In a short time.
Police Matron Mrs. Sharp is spar
ing no efforts or time in the upbuild
ing of the mission work, and she has
been commended by everyone for the
results of her labor. It will proba
bly be thirty days before the move
can be made.
"BLUFFS" TOOK GAME
Alliance High School Squad liOt to
SiMcr City Friday by Scons
of 50 to 6
Some Bay it was 50 to 6; others
say it was 6 to 6; and still others
say It was 46 to 6, but at any rate it
was enough to beat our boys. The
game at Scottsbluff last Friday was a
good one as far as playing was con
cerned, but the Scottsbluff team Just
had it "on" our boys in weight and
in experience. The forward pass
was tried by Alliance Beveral times,
but on every occasion it was inter
cepted by Scottsbluff. Alliance made
more gains on the line than in any
other way. Scottsbluff played their
end runs easily and made goal so of
ten that It became common. Fen
nlng made several good plays that
resulted in small gains.
When a Scottsbluff runner secured
the ball, plenty of Interference was
provided for him. This is one spot
where Alliance is short of experience,
W.R. Harper
Department Store
as they too often let the runuer
strike out for himself, only to be
tackled and downed before he can
make a substantial gain.
Alliance goes to Chadron today to
play their return game Friday. Since
the game here Chadron has bad
more experience and has added some
new players, and the game promises
to be a good one.
Another Light Snow
A few feathery snow flakes fell
here Wednesday morning, the second
"snowfall" of the season. The Bnow
developed from a light rain that fell
most of the morning. Those who
did not take warning after the first J
snow are now preparing for winter
by regretfully discarding their Bee
Vee Dee's and donning their "long
ones". However, those who pursued
this course after the first snow found
they had made a dreadful mistake,
for soon afterward the weather man
began to sweat in his efforts to warm
