H. Younger, the school board, and F. F. A. organization. Tulia school has purchased a new fifty passenger Dodge school bus, for which they have been badly in need for several years. This bus is to be stream-lined and very mod- ernly equipped. The cost is more than two thousand dollors. and the bus was purchased through the Clennin Motor Company. The bus will be used by the band, athletic clubs. and the F. F. A. boys, who will have charge of ia at all times. When not in use, thr- bus will be kept at Clennin Motor Company. where the best of care will be given it. , .s0-.i.... ! Why Isn t? Arlen' Less instead of Moore? Prof, Older instead of Young- er?

The Whitefaces have long been Tulia's bltterest enemy on the grid iron. The want of revenge for the defeats of the past will be strong in favor of the Hornets. f ' The Hereford squad has a for- midable team and has defeated some of the best teams in the Pan- handle. They have gone through the season without a defeat. The Hornets have been idle for two weeks and are in excellent con- dition. They have shown consider- able improvement slnce the Can- yon game. The two teams are evenly match- ed and should be able to play a brilliant game with the breaks of the game counting much. Both teams have excellent aerial attacks and well balanced running plays backed up by a good defense. Since Tulia and Hereford are the only teams in this section that are undefeated in conference play: the winner will probably be the section- al champs. Tulia will be represented at the game by many supporters along with the band and pep squad.

Well, it might be either one, but just as a tip'off to you boys, these boxes go free to all boys who have dates for the party.

TOO LATE The Hallowe'en of old is gone and is better that way. Fifteen years ago Hallowe'en was the most trying day in the year for the good ladies of the little town. They took in off the door- step, flower pots, milk bottles. swings and anything else that could be carried off by some little imp bent on mischief. The deacons would always lock up all the barnyard fowls to keep them from disappearing. Hallowe'en was the time of the year when the urchins from across the tracks donned masks and mingled with the town chil- I dren. They thought nothing of stringing a wire across the dark alley so someone would stumble over it and maybe break legs. 1 One great prank of several boys was putting a donkey in the chapel on the second floor of the school house, and it took much coaxing and persuasion on the part of several men to get him down. 1 They delighteed in tying two cats together and hanging them over a clothes line to claw at each other until they died. If that's fun, then give me a nice quiet book to read and in spite of all the precaution the house- wife took, there would be gar- bage on their front porches the morning after the night before. The meaner the pranks, the bet- ter the kids of yesterday liked it, but I'm glad I was born thirty years too late. iWith due apologies to J. R. Williamsl I A Last Thursday high school students heard a commotion that sounded like a fourth of July fireworks party, and sure enough it was Prof. giving Earl Bell Cosby and Jimmie McCasland their daily dozen. for maybe it was just ten.J ll HI ll Well on into the second six weeks of school, and the kids that were all smiles for the first wee.: or two could easily pass for undertakers now. No wonder, fac- ing Edelmon's teasers every fevs days. ' ' ' Then there's the girl that got her foot hung between the rounds of the chair in front of her in History class. Now we know how to appreciate that clause in the THE Constitution that calls for five demerits for propping your feet on the chair in front of you. ll lk ll The expression it's high time originated, We suppose, way back when they first changed from central time- everywhere to Mountain time in the high places. Hallowe'en, Christmas, Thanks- giving, and Valentine all days when every body has a good time. People always have a brighter out- look on everything after a cele- bration, if those who wish to have a good time aren't too severe on those who didn't wish to partici- pate. Hallowe'en pranks can be lots of fun for everybody if the jokes played aren't at somebody's ex- pense. Every year somebody has to pay for some practical joke or- Hallowee'n just because some boy or girl wanted to paint the town red on Hallowe'en. If everybody will just take it easy and think twice before a trick is planned, everything will run smoothly. -.....i-0 ..

He couldn't go any faster, still, oh, he had to! He must some way get old Gunpowder to moving away from that terrible Headless Hessian that was persu- ing him so rapidly, getting closer and closer every minute, with those terrible shrieks and groans, warning him always to keep well out of the way. Oh, why did he ever go to see Johnne Ruth Ka- trina Martin in the first place? Why should he ever have offend- ed Elvis Brom Bones Roberson so? Oh, faster, faster, Gunpowder! He's getting closer. What's that he's carrying in those boney hands of his? Surely it's his head. On past this old church and then only a few more miles to go. Wonder what he'll do to Johnny when he gets him? Of all the places for old Gunpowder to get tired, right here by the church-yard, where generations and generations of ancestors rest peace- fully on all other nights, but oh. on Hallowe'en night-wonder what they will be doing? He can't stop now. He must be quiet. He can't breathe, it's almost hopeless, sure- ly the terrible terror will overtake him soon. Woah! What was that went buzzing by Johnny's head Oh! He's finished. May as well stop and take it like the man you should have been, Johnny, my friend. Say, what's that I hear? Those hoofbeats growing softer and softer, getting farther and farther away, and poor old Johnny Icha- bod lying flat against Gunpowder. racing for dear life-Whew! That was a narrow essape, but it's over now, and here we find our hero sitting on the foot of the bed, pale and trembling, but so glad to be awake once more. Good morning. Johnny. Hi, but say, why do we have Hallowe'en at all? Who Sez We won't beeat Hereford, The jonior class doesn't have any pep, Ghosts don't roam on Hallowe'en The freshmen don't have a queen?

Promising Young Americans Competition at its best can be fturd in the rural Iiill't of America. -1-H Club work surpasses any oth- er competitive activity in which youthful America is engaged, con- sisting of a membtrship of nearly ine million boys and girls. The work of the 4-lf Club distinctly belongs to the country boys an: girls. At a recent national 4-H Club event, a. girl from Oregon told how she had improved and beantifierl her whsle home in addition to carrying on an advanced 4-H live stock project. Two other girls, also from the Nsrthwest, told how they had been able to care for their home and two little brothers, so that their mother can teach in thc nearby schcol and earn enough to keep their family together since the loss of their father. all through thzir 4-ll Club instruction. At this same event were a number of fine. up:-itanding young fellows who had bec me posse-rsors of good-sized herds of livestock. And some of them very proudly told how their fathers had taken them into full 1 u'tiici-sliip cn their home farms. due to their activities in the 4-H Club. 4-ll Club work has as its objec- tive not merely self-attainment, but rersonal drveltpnieut, along full- r 'urded lines. ldach 4-ll Club mem- ber is matching himself or herself against an unseen and formidable izfnnpetitor. To make the best bet- lrr is the 4-ll Club motto, and it Iicst describes the mettle of this competitor. Country people are fortunate in having so valuable a resource- available to their children, and it is an asset to the nation, because such a. preparatory course in good citizenship exists where the largest proportion of its future citizens are growing up. --.-....-Oili- Margie Edwards and Dorotha Plonds spent 'l'lnn'sday night with Dorris Shearer.

DOG-GONE GOOD DOG FEED Leading a d:1g's life isn't so had after all: especially when it is guided by the affectionate hand of a btautiful young lady who seems to put her heart and scul into the caring of dump animals. Some people would like to remiixd her, even though they t areu't animals, they are dumb, si they should have some con- sidei'atio1i. When you feel the need of food, the brst advice would he to ga and sit in the window of the First National Bank and wait until some dazzling young lady comes to your rescue. Such was the genercsity shown last Saturday night to a small dog Immediate care was taken by tsrtlering a milk soda twhicn of milkl conrists of a saucer fr in the drug store, and the hoating of the milk was furnish- ed by placing :i young girls hand , in the milk. Also a T-Bone steak was ordered from the mt-at market for rather a bone i and a few streaks of meat.b l After this igourishment wasi csnsumed, the dog waiged hisl tail as if to say, it isn't so bad ti be a dog after all! Pep Girls Entertain A corps of the local Pep Squad played good samaritans to the lit- tle town of Nazareth last Friday. F:-cling sorry for the residents of the little out of the way town, they spent about 2 hours tmuch to their pleasure or resentment-you be the judgel entertaining the citizens with a miniature drill, consisting mainly of frantic marching up and down the main street. After this phase of entertain ment was completed, the helpful girls assisted the local Don Juan take inventory of the contents of the store. Upon the completion of his act the citizens bid the party a. fond adieu and the journey tr' Hereford was completed by means cf a newly chartered automobile .11 ---O .-A-1. Hereford Sponsors Broadcast Through the efforts of the local busintss men of Hereford a play by play account of the VVhiteface-- Hornet game was broadcast from the VVhiteface field at Hereford last Friday afternoon. Mr. Dewit Mudge? Landis, sports announcer for station KGNC at Amarillo gave a vivid verbal des- cription of the game. Mr. Landis is a widely known amiouncer of sports over this station. NOVEMBER 7 F RID Tulia-Happy Feud Renewed BATTLE FOR CONFERENCE SECOND The age-old Tulia-Ilappy feud will be renewed tomorrow when the Hornets invade the Cowboys stomping grounds in an attempt to bold the record started last year when they beat the Ilappy eleven, then the Jacks This game will also be an at- tempt to rcgain and display the fighting spirit shown in the recent Canyon game, and the backing of the school and town which, the lads feel, they lost in the Hereford game last week. It is a well known fact that the two teams are about equally match- cd in speed, weight, experience, and determination to win. Both schools are rotating this week on the axis of the coming game, and it promises to be a battle from start to finish, when, it is hoped by the entire city, the Hornets will come through with the old Marocn mid XVhite still flying high. 0...-li. Hornets Lose To Hereford Fighting an uphill battle against experience and a weight advantage of six pounds to the man, the Tulia Hornets showed a fighting spirit that drew many favorable comments from the 1500 spectators at thc- annual classic of class B football for district 1. Coming back strong in the third quarter, the Hornets carried the fight to the Whitefaces and kept the ball well in Hereford territory most of the period. Showing a great lack of experience, the Hor- nets made a nuich better showing against the powerful Whitefaces than was expected by litany of the spectators. It is the expressed desire of the entire Hornet squad that the White- faces continue to the regional championship. ..-....L 0l-- - Personals Lorraine C:mchranc spent thi- week end in Amarillo.
