How would you Hko to hav« a
birthday party and find that ev-
eryone was exchanging gifts
among themselves and forgetting
you entirelyT I uni sure you would
foci very queer Indeed. ChrUt has
to go through this experience ev*
ery year while hundreds of per-
none are celebrating the date of
His birth and seemingly forget all
nhout Him.
Of course It la ImpoHalble to give
to Christ himself, but there are
many poor families !u our midst
who would be only too thankful to
receive practical gifts in His name.
Just a little bit of food, say a sack
of potatoes or some canned goods,
or perhaps a few of your clothes
that are too small for you, would
make them very happy. If, how-
ever, you have the Christmas spirit
in an especially large amount, giftN
of candy, fruit, and toys would not
be In vain.
Often we are forgetful of these
unfortunate, but 1 am sure if we
would only remember them on
this Holiday, the gifts which we
will receive In the form of having
done something worthwhile, will
far exceed any contribution which
has been made.

Atfua Dulce Basket-
eers Heat Hrahmas
Saturday night In the college
gymnasium, the Aguu Dulce Long-
horns defeated the llrahmus in a
close game by a score of 13-12. At
the end of the first half the score
was 11 and 1 In favor of the visi-
tors. The lust half showed a com-
plete reversal of form. The Brah-
mas begun to click defensively and
held their opponents to u one lone
field goal while they gradually be-
gan to pick up. The whistle stop-
ped them from winning, as their
offensive was becoming more con-
fident and more aggressive as the
game continued.
Reed wus oustundlng for the
Brahmas, while Brmls, Mrazek,
and Ebner showed up as the Long-
horn stars.
Next Wednesday afternoon the
Brahmas journey to Aguu Dulce
for a return game.

"So Help Me,"
Le Roy Fry.
Dear Le Roy:

ball Hero to Get Along With n
Beautiful Girl” so 1 guess you

“Straight From the Shoulder” that
she was "Born To Be Kissed," and
that you cun’t help it If you are
just a "Country Boy," nnd niuy
there be—
“No More Heartaches, No
More Tears”,
Madam Fifi.

SCHOOL NEWS
Kingsville High School didn't
rcullze Just how many Garbos and
Gables we did huve until "The
Lucky Judo" was sponsored Inst
Friday nlghl. The boys set up u
howl when the teachers tried to
put heavy make-up cn them. They
couldn't tuke it, ho they say. We’ve
got to hand It to the whole cast
though, for they certainly put on
a good play. "Son" Cauley practic-
ally stole the show with Ills acting
ot the character Downs. The main
players deserve credit for their
part, too, for they all displayed ex-
cellent work.
It seems that Woodrow and
Katherine are having quite a few
quarrels lately. So soon? Just a
small, insignificant misunderstand-
ing they tell me.
Nuckols was having a big time
Saturday night when he was seen
in the middle of Bishop’s main
street shooting fire-crackers with
some of the Belles of Bishop High.
He didn’t seem to mind though.
Muxie Gunn got hlH dad's car
Saturday night and before he got
a girl to go with him he discovered
that he had tried every bit of 12
or 13 dames. Two wore sleeping,
three had dates and the rest with
one exception had various other
excuses to offer. We’ve often heard
of being second choice, but imag-
ine being thirteenth choice. And to I
top the girl-hunt off, “Maxle”
drove into Sara Lou's front yard,
hitting the curb, and ruining the
tires. Was he afraid to go home
that night? I’ll say he was.
Ferns have some strange power
that can rule lots of things. In this
case Ruth Campbell was seen go-
ing into the show with "Dub” Bar-
ton. We know all about this cur-
rent crush, but the thing is, he was
all dressed up in a full suit, bl-
swlng and everything. This is
something rare — to see Dub do
after going around In almost any-
thing Just having a big time. But
I guess that’s the way It gets them
when they go courtin’.
Somebody told us that Billy
Flato was nursing the idea that he
was framed in the worst way in his
date after the play Friday night.
That’s all right, Billy, we sympa-
thize with you.

Between The Lines
Well, dear children, today’s
fairy tale is very Interesting and
very well known.
Once upon a time there was a
dear, dear little Freshman girl who
liked two dear, dear little A. & I.
Freshman boys. One of these dear
little souls seemed to be making
more progress than the other.
Therefore, we will refer to him
us Slime 1. Now Slime 2, faithful
follower and so on, doggedly
kept up Ills head and the little
Freshmun girl was seen very often,
In fact too often for the comfort of
Slime 1, with him. Now un upset
has taken place und we, tho audi-
ence you understand, see little
Hllttie 2 taking the place of Slime
1. Wonder what the next act of this
most Interesting drumu will show.
Well, only five more days of
school this year, and are we all
glud.
This writer dares anyone to deny
the fact that Downs stole the
show Friday night.
We wonder why a certain crowd
of girls want to keep their "sec-
ret loves" real secrets?
We also have to know if "Madam
Fifi" hadn't better tuke out life
insurance or something.
While we’re wondering (what
else can we do) wo mtghj as well
wonder if Anne will forget Henry
for a bit and give Horace .a
chance.
We would like you to feature
"Hook", “Tommy", or "Shorty" or
Just any of the hoys without their
pipes these cold days. — That
means you, too, Nuchols.
Getting back to the subject, we
ask you do the college fish enjoy
getting their names linked with
high school girls?
