will naturally make some mistakes.
One who makes no mistakes, makes
nothing else. For, if we do anything
worthwhile, we will make our pro-
portion of mistakes If we continue
to progress, It will be because we
continue to profit by our mistakes.
Don’t be afraid of making mistakes
in the act of doing something
worthwhile. A true axiom—“He who
makes no mistakes, makes nothing
else.”

We won over Forestburg Saturday
night, thus soothing our wounded
pride for the defeat they gave us
early in the season before the round-
robin schedule started. Forestburg
has a mighty fine group of boys who
show good sportsmanship and play
a clean game. The score was 50-15
but a much better game than the
score Indicates was witnessed by
enthusiastic spectators.
We go to Bellevue Friday night.
Stoneburg comes to Spanish Fort

Volley Ball News
One of the most thrilling volley
ball games of the year was played
Saturday night between our girls
and the Forestburg girls, at Span-
ish Fort. Every point was hard
fought. Forestburg has a wonderful
team, but they were unable to con-
quer our girls. The scores were 10
to 15. 15 to 12. and 15 to 13.
Come out Saturday night and
us play Stoneburg!!
