Team work is the cornerstone of success in basketball as in every other me. It means the wor out of the best system of play for the whole team. It means that every man must fit himself into that system. The team ymust think and move as one man. | Several systems of play have beea | worked out. : z | The lone star systems is built upon the speed, endurance, and all round brilliance of one man. He pars the floor and 'works the ball into his oppo- nents territory where either he or oue of the forwards who stay near their opponent's basket can get a shot. To | do this he must be very good at drib- | bling. The other four men play ter- | ritory, two as stationary forwards, and | two as rough guards who lay back and fight all opposition. The drawback to this system is that, if the star is stopped i the whole team is stopped. | © The two pivot man system uses three | speedy floor men who play the ball rather than territory, two rangy, husky | men who play, one as a stationary for- | ward oT Te other as a stationary | guard. The stationary forward is fed | the ball at every opportunity. This system of play usually calls for a pret- ty extensive use of the long pass. In the short pass system. four or five men play the ball. This system re- quires the quick, stocky, shifty type of player with tremendous endurance. One | tall, rangy guard usually rlays wnder the basket to break up t's play and dig out the ball en his fou team mates by a series of short fast | passes work it back up the floor. This ! short pass game must be fast to be suc- ry The five men defense system uses the | whole team as a defensive combination. | It goes on the theory that, if your op ponents can't get any baskets, | can't win, while you may ba able to | put in a lw or two. Men lay territory. Quick moving and abil- | ity to intercept the ball without fouling is necessary. The presence of five men in guard territory makes it necessary | for the opponents to take long shots. | The danger of this sort of game is the | tendency to play the man and not the ball. This results in a great number of fouls. | | | { 1 | i septic cream in your nostrils, let it | penetrate through every air passage of the head; soothe and heal the swollen, inflamed mucous membrane, and relief conies instantly. It is just what every cold and ca- tarrh sufferer needs. Don't stay stuffed-up and miserable. Use Cocoanut Oil For Washing Hair If you. want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you 'wash it with. Too much alkali dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsified cocoanut sham- poo (which is pure and entirely greaseless), is much better than any- thing else you can use for shampoo- jos. as this can't possibly injure the Ir : - Simply moisten your hair with wa- ter and rub it in. One or two tea- spoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lath er rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive ofl. The hair dries "quickly and evenly, and it leaves it "fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo at most any drug store.

News From Fallbrook. Fallbrook, Jan, 12.--The reeve Notre Dame Convent. The Story of the Candlesticks. Two very old and battered candle- | sticks sre my treasured possessions. | Lined by innumerable scratches, ! worn thin, even to holes, by con- 'stant polishing; bent in some places; scarred deeply in others, these two old veterans (rellets, in truth of that great struggle between Wellington and Napoleon, at the battle of Water- loo), hold themselves erect, with, as it seems to me, true martial pride. "TTove them, and I only am in their confidence, Perhaps you would like to hear their story of that historical day, June 18th, 1815, as they told it to me. You will have noticed that the history of Europe at the end of the eighteenth and the beginning of the nineteenth century deals chiefly with Napoleon Bonaparte. One of the greatest generals of all times, his conquests fil] us with admiration. He first distinguished himself as an of- ficer of artillery at the siege of Tou- lon. From that time he gradually rose, seizing power after power; pull- ing down throne after throne, until he had risen to the Emperor of ; France and all Western Europe lay at his feet. At last Britain herself was threatened, and sent Wellington, au {the head of eighty thousand troops, to subdue the all-conquering '<ittle corporal." After a severe engagement between the French and the British at Quatre Bras, the two great gemerals joined battle near the village of Waterloo, The fight was long, stubborn and bloody; for five hours the British troops fought doggedly, resisting wave after wave of fierce attack-- fought untfl evening began to close in. The French cavalry, brave and desperate, flung themselves on the invulnerable British squares, but al- ways they were broken and driven back with terrible slaughter. Na- poleon at length ordered up his triea friends, veterans who had won for him many a well-fought battle. Gal- lantly his "old guard' advanced, but were received with such a pitiless fire that even they wavered and were driven back. WeHington's whole line now advanced, and in one irresistible sweep carried every posi- tion held by the French. "Well I remember," mused ons old candlestick, 'how the windows in our humble village home rattled and shook as the vibration from the British and French volleys smote them. I shall never forget the struggle I had to keep my flame from flickering and blowing out. If that had happened I would have felt dis- graced forever." "Yes, Indeed," broke in the other candlestick." '""What a comfort it is to think that all through the noise and thunder of that day we remained quite cool and collected, guarding with our two flames the treasure of our humble home, the little wooden image of the Virgin Mary."--F. Rhoades, form three. A Snow Shoe Tramp. There is no sport or winter pas- time which affords more pleasure than snow-shoeing. After a day of bodily or mental labor, one may take such a trip and feel refreshed and in- vigorated even although miles may have been travelled. The best time for this outing is a clear cold moon- light night, taking for granted that the snow has fallen freshly to a pro- per depth. When well started the rate of travelling is much quicker than anyone can walk, and the ex- ertion does not tire one so much as walking. There are always ways of of these I shall relate from my own experience. It was on just such a night as [ have described above that several of us went on such an expedition. We were very closs to a dense black wood when some of the party seemed to have suddenly vanished. We could not go on and leave them. Probably we could not find our way back with- out them, as the moon was sinking lower in the sky. Where had they gone? Each of us felt in our hearts that those who had escaped were go- ing to spring something on us which would either please or frighten us. It did not take us long to learn which it was. Suddenly a fire in a tiny &learing crackled and leaped in- to flame in the black stillness of the forest. . Then we understood. A great shout burst from all, for was it not a surprise and pleasure. It brought to my mind the history of the early Indians, when they held. their camp fires and grotesque fig- er ---- HOOL BRI JANUARY 15, 1920. making the trip more exciting. One TISH ires danced and screamed around them, We had a splendid time warming ourselves, and after making sure thas every 'spark was out, we set off mers rily for home.--Beatrice Bedard. Christmas Sports. Christmas vacation, 'the time to which we have so eagerly looked for- ward, is over for amother year, ana thinking it may be interesting for some of r readers, 1 shall try to describe some of the sports I enjoy- ed during my very important twwe weeks, , To make everything more enjoy- able we had an abundance of snow and ice, both of which are 50 neces- sary for almost any kind of Can- adian winter sport. The lakes ana rivers were covered with icy sheets, which to look at would make one long for skates, while the hills and valleys were one great expanse of sparkling white snow, making poss- ible coasting; snow-shoeing and sleigh driving. I had my best skating experience one afternoon on a lake near my home. When I reached the ice, ac- companied by three of my friends, we quickly put on our skates and pre- pared for a race. The ice was ideal, the day perfect, and with the wind whistling around our ears we quick- ly covered the distance set for the race.y After this we spent some time skating, but as the sinking sun warn- ed us of the lateness of the hour we set out for home very much refresh- ed after our exercise, Our best coasting companion was a large sleigh, which accommodated ten of us. Our first ride was taken one afternoon, just following a very heavy snowfall. When we reached our favorite hill no time was lost in making our first dash. Off we start- ed, but only succeeded in getting about hallway down the hill, when our sleigh stopped so unexpectedly that we all landed violently in a snow-bank. This unpleasant ex- perience: showed us that the.snow was too deep for coasting, that day at least. We were all determined that we should not be overcome, so we sub- stituted the coasting expedition for a snow-shoe tramp, which we enjoy- ed very much. When we reached home that night, in addition to the pleasure of our very exciting after- noon, we had learned the \aluable | lesson never to be overcome b; little | things. Aithough I spent many of my va- cation hours in skating, coasting and snow-shoeing, I found my greatest | enjoyment in sleigh-driving. I shall tell you of one of the parties of this kind which'I enjoyed during my va-, cation. A number of my friends and my- | self had made preparations previous to the' holidays for a sleigh-driving party, so one bright moonlight night having gathered all our party to-| gether we started off over the glit- tering roads-to the merry jingle of the wlelgh-helig and the laughter of | our companons. After a swift, in- vigorating drive of threes miles, which everyone enjoyed, we draw up at a cosy farm house, where we found awaiting us a warm fire and a deliciously appetizing lunch. To conclude, I think I may safely say that although any winter sport is very enjoyable, the school girl or boy just set free from the confine- ment of the classroom and seeking holiday pleasure is sure to find all he wishes in sleigh-driving.--(Con- tributed.) Cataraqul School. The Milk Man's Accident. There was a milk man whose name was Lapier. He was coming down Ordnance street hill and when he reached Bagot street the street car struck his 'cart, and the horse was cut on the neck and died, the wagon was carried from Ordnance street to Bay street, and the man was injured badly too. When my father heard the street car hit the horse and wagon he ran out with only one boot on and one stocking and his pants. He ran to the vinegar works and phoned for 8. 8. Corbett. The ambulance came and took Lapier to thg hospital and my father got in too and went with him. He did not die, he came out i about a month or two very well. James Trenhalile. An Accident. When I was about seven yea I took my cart and shovel and an axe and went over in the field in front of our house to cut some sods for the | lawn.

For instance, this is an exercise that irls like and there's no reason why 5 should not try it" lizabeth held to the back of a chalr with her right hand and balanced her- self on her right foot, with her left leg stretched as far back and as high up as possible. Rising on the ball of her foot, she bent the upper leg, rotating the knee outward and pointing the toe. Her left arm extended diagonally forward above her head. "This is harder than it looks," said Elizabeth. 4 Jack, - say so," sai trying to hold the position, "Here is another exercise." Elizabeth put her hands on her hips. Then keeping the body perfectly straight, she bent one knee, extending the other fo.t forward, and raised her body up and down ten 'times. With each bend of the knee, the free foot | swung back aad forth. Then she | changed to the other foot and repeated | the exercise.

She took a couple of Snap | shots of "the family" and pasting the | snaps on a placard asked for homes for the orphans, and put it in a con- spicuous place in the public library. In less than a week the four were placed in good homes. -- (Contribut- ed). TR 'MATHIEUS SYRUP OF TAR & COD - LIVER OIL Coughs, Colds, Grippe, Bronchitis, hooping Cough, Asthma, Etc.
