Football 5SS B. C.
Football originated in Sparta aa
an organized game 500 B. C., ac-
cording to a writer in the Wash-
ington Post. The Roman legions who
conquered Greece brought the game
back, carried it to aU parts of Eu-
rope and finally to the British Isles.
In those days it was a military
pastime. Lator fie Bn0SB* It be-
came a game played by entire towns
and villages. The goal was usually
the church in each town. Frequently
the villages were miles apart, but
everybody was allowed to partici-
pate. Thus the battle raged for
hours or an entire day over the
countryside, until one side 'or the
other kicked the ball against the
other's .church. American football
is B variation of English rugby.

tory are blackened ’ here and
there with forest smoke. About 1800,
there were-fires in western Europe,
for a part of the Black Forest in
Germany was burned. In 1828 ex-
tensive forest fires swept over por-
tions of Sweden and Denmark.
“Dark Days” are scattered through
history, usually due to large forest
fires though in some cases to vol-
canic eruptions. Such days on the
Pacific Coast are still fresh in the
memories of many of its citizens;
“Red rains,” “black rains,” “black
snows" are recorded in Europe
from 180JI oil.

mental authority is dependent on
a God-given power. No man has
any right to rule over any other
man except as God delegates that
right to him.
No “divine right of kings” is justi-
fied by this passage, but clearly it
does teach that government is or-
dained of God and functions by his
providence. To resist such author-
ity is to resist God.
Must we always obey the govern-
ment? Yes; until it commands us
to do that which is clearly contrary
to the laws of God. We do not
resist or question the authority of
any properly appointed govern-
mental agency, no matter how
weak, or even wicked the agent
may be, as long as he acts as
“a minister of God . . for good.”
Any government is better than an-
archy. But no government has the
right to command any man to dis-
obey God.
In our land we have a powerful
agency for the correction of govern-
mental weakness and error — the
ballot box. Let every Christina use
it discreetly and in the fear of
God.
Before leaving the passage, note
that the Christian does not dodge,
“fix,” or leave unpaid the taxes
which support the government un-
der whose benefits he lives and
works. There is too much dishon-
esty at this point, and we need to
correct it.
II. Socially - Honest and Loving
(vv. 8-10).
“Love thy neighbor as thyself’
and there will be no social dis-
honesty, strife, and ill-will. Re-
member the lesson of last week oft
love—I Corintians 13.
III. Personally-CIean and Spirit-
ual (vv. 11-14)."
The time when our redemption is
to be fully completed—that is, when
the Lord himself returns — is at
hand. We therefore will not live
as those who walk in darkness, but
as children of the light, clean in
life and thought. We will “put on
the Lord Jesus Christ.”
In these days when almost every
wayside store and hundreds of thou-
sands of city buildings have been
converted into drinking places far
worse than the old-time saloon,
when men and women are mak-
ing drunken sots of themselves,
ft is indeed time for Christians to
riise their voices in protest and to
act to protect' the boys and girls
of America.
But above all—let us win them
to Christ, for if they “put on Christ”
they win “make no provision tor
th» flpsh to fulfill the lusts thereof."
We hear rumors that ghosts
and spooks are going to walk Fri-
day evening when the Juniors act
as hosts and hostess to the S' mors
and the football boys.
Witches, prowling ,cats, flying
bats, skeletons and ghosts will all
be there with high spirits, ready
for a good time. Popcorn, peanuts
and candy, w$ may even get our
fortunes told.
All Juniors and their guests
should not be able to find any
other diversion for Saturday even-
ing.

Hiawatha studied the moon for

The stars, moon, and also the

The birds came to him through

Also when he was at play.
Hiawatha talked to the insects at

They talked to him with all their

He sailed in his canoe way in the

He was not in danger until it was

When Hiawatha was a little boy,

A lover of nature was he.

The Ford building certainly was
of interest.' Here I saw every
means uf - transportation all
through the ages from the ox-
carts to our present Ford V12. In
this same building we saw every
kind of material that is used in
making the car. and also a small
reproduction of the origin of each
materia). I saw every part of a
car, separate from the rest, being
put togpther.
I had no idea that there were
so many different kinds of fish in
the world until | visited the aqua
riijm. In that one building I
found dozens of kinds of fish new
to me.
The Foods building was very
interesting as I saw how many
different kinds of foods were made
in the near future. The puppet
actors were made by the students
of Art.
Football and class rings seem to
be the main interest in the high
school, with talks for entertain-
ments on the side line.
ASSEMBLY PROGRAM
Friday morning the high school
felt very honored Dy having with
them Mr. R. C. Forman, a very
distinguished speaker and lectur-
er. Before he started his lecture
he got every students attention by
acting humorous and telling jokes.
Then he told the student body a
short story by one of his favorite
authors, O. Henry. It was “The
Retrieved Reformation”, a story
with which most of the English

ing and bottling o! Coca Cole and
Dr Pepper.
The Texas Rangers building
and exhibit attracted me. In here
I saw a beautiful hand-made all
I ather saddle that was valued at
over a thousand dollars.
In the Sinclair building I saw a
minature representation of the
seven wonders of the world, and
in there and all over the Centen-
nial ground we found lounges and
chairs for resting. But I was afraid
to rest long at a time for missing
something.
The bus I returned in left Dal-
las at three o'clock Sunday after-
noon, and we arrived in Detroit
about eight o’clock. Although I
had a grand trip I was glad to be
at borne again as 1 was tired,
