THE ALLLIKC HERALD Thursday, February 6, 191 9 High School Notes Spuiprtpr rxami are now a thin of the past, and we have atarted on ur new aemwiler. Prior to the ex amination!, the student body con tantly had In mind this prayer: "Oh Lord of Hosts be with us yet Lpst we for lest' we forget." Now a few disappointed ones are thinking: "The lxrd of Hosts was with us not, For we fosot for we forgot!" Marie Kibble Is unable to be with s this week, on account of 11 incus. The adraneed Shorthand class at tended court Wednesday to take dic tation. A few unaolrable (T) mysteries have developed this week, one of which is this: why Is It that the young ladles, who formerly lingered la the cloak hall to converse, were eo eager to get us to the assembly room Monday? Whatever be tho reason, may It last. Wanda Adams gave a stag party last week .several young ladle at tending In disguise. When one of the teachers finds Stussel Mann scanning his or her countenance, and making hasty marks on a paper. It would be ad visable to assume an expression of inability mingled with Intelligence and alertness, and strike a graceful pose, for Russel has been appointed Spud cartoonist. ItoyTrabert returned to school Tuesday afternoon. We are not on ly glad to have Hoy In classes with us, but also glad to have him on the basketball team again. Beatrice Tate was absent Tuesday on account of Illness. ' Last Friday night the most excit ing game of the season was played at the high school gymnasium, Alli ance playing against Kimball. For a time It seemed, as though neither team would be able to break through the opponent's guard sufficiently to make a basket. So evenly were they matched that when time wns called at the end of t' e last half the score stood 8 to 8. It was decided to play it out, and with players and audi ence at the highest tension, the boys threw themselves Into t e gahie for a final struggle. When Kimball Biado a basket Just before time was called, every true heart of Alliance went down with a thud. It Is a bit ter disappointment for us to be de feated, but we are proud that our boys can take defeat In the right ptrit, and, since we did lose, it was to a team who can play a good, clean game In a thoroughly sportsmanlike way. . 'Into IV Mr. Mesnersmith arrived Monday morning in a happy and absent minded state, and regardless of what Question was put to him, answered proudly, "It's a boy!" lie says the young man Is still minus a first name, it being a hard task to find one good enough. When "Archi bald" was suggested to him, he suld the. child was somewhat bald, but nrtt that bald. On being croas-quos-tloned, he confeBsed ltv had bawled tome, but not enough to have that same wished on him. All sugges tions will be gratefully received by Mr. M. The Latin Club met at the Grass Bian home Saturday night, and those who attended report a very pleasant veiling. Ed Morrdw underwent an oiera tlon for appendicitis at Omaha, but complications bet In and he Is not getting along as well as was expect ed. The new high school pincipal has arrived In truth, a Prince in kha ki, at that. Mr. Prince addressed the high school Monday morning, and, from his remarks we Judge him to be a basketball enthusiast. Now look out, Kimball! After school, nights, a mysterious thumping sound Issues regularly from the gym. This indicates that the basketball boys are working hard to Improve their game. They 'feel confident that with the aid of their new roach, In addition to the splen did training they have already re ceived, they will be able to wipe the earth with Kimball In the return game. When work la resumed on the Oer InavFort Laramie Irrigation project In Nebraska, the huge shovels used In excavating, will be electrically operated, the power being generated by water In the completed portion of the canal.

On our return about the last of February we are expecting to hear of great things which have tran spired under Brother Woten's preaching. Give him the glad hand and your presence at every service. Come to the church with a message and a welcome. STEPHEN J. EPLER, Minister. METHODIST CHURCH The deep Bnow drifts cut down the attendance at Sunday School and church last Sunday. Let us all rally next Sunday to both services, and to Sunday School. We can easily "go over the top" In attendance at both Sunday School and church If each pupil and member. will be faithful. The army used that ugly word "slacker" for those who would not be faithful. What word can be coined which will properly express the condemnation of King Immanuel of a Christian soldier who wilfully, and persistently, refuses to "carry on" the work of the kingdom? Think It over, Methodists, and let us rally as never before! The sermon subject for the morn ing hour will bo "The Indifference That Kills." This Is another en trancing Bible story which will carry deep Interest. Come to this service. Epworth League at 6:30 p. m. There Is a welcome for you. At 7:30 p. m. the pastor will have for his sermon subject, "The Recip rocity of Love." Come to these services, and let us get acquainted with one another. We very much wish to have your co-operation and friendship.

Pounds "I had rather see my wife well nd happy like she is since taking Tanlac than to have all the money In the world." declared Henry Rasp berry of 1812 Campbell St., Kansas City, Mo. Mr. Raspberry, who has recently been employed as a fore man by the Armour Packing Com pany, was formerly In the service of the Missouri, Kansas A Texas rail road. "Before my wife took Tanlae," continued Mr. Raspberry, "she had rheumatism in her limbs so bad she couldn't even dress herself. I would have to help her out of bed In the mornings and put her clothes on for her. Her stomach was In such a bad condition that ahe could hardly digest anything. The gas on her stomach would cause intense pains In her side and such awful spells of palpitation of the heart that she could hardly stand it. She waa ex tremely nervous, her breath was short and very offensive, and she had fallen off In weight until she was hardly more than a frame. "At the time she began taking Tanlac she' only weighed eighty seven pounds and had not been able to do any of her housework in four years. But she now weighs one hundred and twenty-two pounds has actually gained thirty-five pounds In welght,end is as healthy and active as she was thirty years ago. . The rheumatic pains have all left her and she can do all her work and look after the family without the least trouble. She can eat meats, pickles, all kinds of vegeta bles and anything else she wants and never have a sign of indigestion. Sho is not the least nervous any more, sleeps like a child every night and Is as well as ahe ever was. I can't find words to express my thankfulness for what Tanlac haa done for her." It Is nothing short of wonderful." f Tanlac Is sold in Alliance by F. E. Moisten and in Hemlngford by the Olds Drug Company. , No mornin un lasia a wl.o ny."
