FINE CHURCH HISTORY Father George Agius, pastor of the St. John's Roman Catholic church oT this city has proved himself not only a strong and efficient preacher of the gospel but his work as a writer of religious documents and history end his publications rank high in the line of religious literature. The "Union" of Carnegie, Pa., has the following review of his work that certainly gives the fullest ap preciation of the work, "Tradition and the Church." the review being from the pen of a minister of one of the protestant churches of that section of Pennsylvania, Rev. S. H. Cunningham, D. D. ot Carnegie. "Tradition and the Church," by George Agius. D. D., J. C. D. Pub. bv The Stratford Co., Boston, Mass. Pub. 1928. $3.50. A book for Catholic and Protest ant to read and enjoy. This book covers a wide field of facts in the history of the Church. It shows that much, in fact most, of the tradition in the Protestant Churches is inher ited from the Roman Catholic Church. Then the author shows the source of the tradition in the Cath olic Church in a most interesting way. We would like to see this book widely used. I am recommending this book to the ministers in the brother hood of which I am a minister, and I would like to see all those interest ed in religion and the Church read the book. All will agree with the position taken by the author, but the historical content must be fac ed, and there is a basis for the rem edy of many religious problems. The reviewer of this book promises you this, that you will learn many things fro mthis volume that are worth while.

Hen !nd, Fred ROADS GROWING WORSE From Thursday's Paliv The arrivals in this city from out side points and especially those who are living in the localities served by dirt roads, are reporting that the condition of the roads are gradually J growing worse following four days of wet and disagreeable weather and in many cases it is difficult for teams and wagons to get through the mud let alone autos. The roads had been getting in fair shape following the long wet period several weeks ago. but this latest visitation of the wet weather swept down on this section and now the roads are being made just that much worse as the result of the rain and continued damp weather. To add to the general disagree -abliness of the situation the torn up and unsettled road conditions help to make travel bad in and out of this city and but little prospect of any great improvement until spring when the work can be opened up to allow the completion of the road and again restore good road to this section. As the situation now stands the residents of the city and the nearby territory are traveling as little as possible. HELD FOR TRIAL From Thursday's Daily At Omaha Wednesday before U S.

ANNOUNCE GAME From Saturday tt Dally The basketball season opened last .evening at the local high school gym j with North high of Omaha being the ! guests and victors over the Platters ; by the score of 31 to 12. but despite (the large s-ore the local team showed j well and rives promise of a good ; season as they hit their stride. I For the Platters Captain Roy Turner looked the best and the vet eran guard was the most effective of the locals in penetratiing the line of the Vikings giant team, as Coach Jackson tMs year has a team of huskies that made it impossible for the locals to get anywhere effective ly. John Galloway, left forward, was the most successful in the scoring as he garnered three field goals, with Turner taking one and Garland McCleary one field goal and two free tosses. McCleary showing up ex ceptionally well for his first year. The Norsemen had Mason, veteran forward as their skipper and this player again was the high point man for North with six field goals. Elliott at right guard was one of the effective cogs in the machine of North as his passes were swift and accurate to his fellow players and with their height made the inter ference of the Platters of little ef- fectivness. In the opening of the game the Platters drew first blood when Deyer of the visitors fouled McCleary. who made the shots good and then Potter of the visitors rang up a field goal to tie, but hardly had this happened than Galloway was away from the enfolding defense of North and planter a ringer that placed the Plat ters in the lead. Mason and Iv-yer each scored a goal with two free throws that made the North total at the quarter S, while Turner drop ped in a fine basket to bring up the Platter score to 6. In the second period the North team ran their score up to 15 at the half while the Platters remained at 6 and the visitors also in the third act of the drama were able to hold the locals scortdess and garnered in three more baskets to have a 21 to 6 advantage as the last period open ed up. In the last quarter the natters led a desperate attack on the visitors and McCleary scored a field goal and Galloway two to bring up the local score to 12 at the final whistle. The showing of the Platters was such, however, as to give the fans hopes that In the succeeding games the fast battling aggregation of the blue and white will lie in the scoring as they have the making of a real team. curtain raiser of the bis North seconds trimmed up second team by the score 2 with Sam Arn enjoying of scoring the only In the game the the local of 14 to the distinction local tally.
