News.
Reported by Pupils
The C. H. S. basket ball team
journeyed over to Lufkin and
played the high school team of
that town a game of basket ball
on Jan. 2. This was the third
game played by this team this
year and the second one won. C.
H. S. played Center at Center on
Nov. 11 and won that game by a
score of 21-18. The next game
was with Timpson at Carthage.
We lost this game by a score of
20-19. The third game was with
Timpson at Timpson, and we won
that game by a score of 27-16.
Timpson played Center at Center
and Center won this game by a
score of 17-16. By Center de-
feating Timpson this gives Car-
thage the highest standing of
any o|^the school teams.
The first grade reports that on
acceunt of the bad weather last
week a large number were ab-
sent. Sunny Bug Baker has been
absent on account of sickness
this week.
The absentees in the seventh
grade are: Alvk. Ross, Noble
Harkrider and Willie Dickson.
We hope they will come back
soon.
But few in this grade are anx-
ious for the examinations.
The school is selling pencils to
buy window shades and we hope
the seventh grade will buy its
share. We have already bought
$40 worth.
We had a history quiz last
week and think nearly all passed.
The attendance the past week
has been excellent, making a few
allowances for the weather.

You can understand wlw Purina Cow Chow has been
adopted as the st^ndajd ration on the D. W. Field
Farms, the Allamubhyjrarms, and hundreds of others
that head the lists,WlJIn you realize that Purina Cow
Chow is If
24% ijrotein
of which 85% is digeltible. This means
20 lbs. of digestible protein in evkry 100
lb. bag.
It is a pure feed that balances home-
grown roughage and reduces the cost of
production. More milk from the same
number of cows means a larger profit per
gallon.

the top in buying the pencils
which are now on salei in every
grade in school. The profit made
on these pencils will go toward
buying window shades, of which
we are greatly in need. Our

the help of Mr. Cooke, Won’t

expecting a large crowd so don't

Birth of Red Cross Idea.
The suffering of soldiers in the Cri-
mean war first directed the world’s
attention to the merit of systematic
care for the wounded. In 1859 M.
Henri Dunant was visiting Italy and
witnessed the carnage of the battle of
Solferino. He organized volunteers
to help take care of the wounded. Out
of his work grew the conference at
Geneva, in 1863, and another in 1SG4.
These conferences were the formal be-
ginning of the Red Cross. The name
and insignia were adopted. The Amer-
ican Red Cross was organized by Clara
Barton in 1881.
Dreaming of Cats.
With the exception of black ones, it
is said that to dream of cats is un-
lucky. If the animals scratch, the
dreamer must beware of a rival in
love. To dream of chasing a cat means
disappointment over something.
thage, Texas, for said amount.
Obediently yours,
J. L. Fall, Co. Clerk,
Panola County, Texas.
Sworn to and subscribed before
me at Carthage, Texas, this 12th
day of January, A. D. 1920.

According to a Roumanian scientist,
old age is due solely to a decrease in
the amount of water in the human sys-
