There's a difference in lumber-- not only in grain, color and soft­ ness, but alio in the *way it's manufactured. All of these things naturally affect the price; therefore the use^ it is to be put to muse be considernd. It's a good deal like a woman making a dress--the occasion regulates the cost. .No vfoman would pay 12.00 a yard for silk to make a kitchen dress. The same thing applies in lumber. We've always made it a point to help our cus toraero select the right material fit specific jobs and truiy believe that is the reason we have the reputatiQn we enjoy today for legitimate : $&tojp and square dealings. ,;J^C " There's No Place Like Home WILBUR LUMBER CO.

Our school is progressing nicely ua- On Friday evening, December 19, the high school basket ball team mot defeat at the hands of the Woodstock high school team at Wckxlstock. The game was fast and snappy thruout. At the start our boys had a little shade over the eounty seat boys, but as the game went on the long hall fairly winded our boys and victory was wrestled from them during the last five minutes of play, the final score be­ ing 3*i to 29. There was no individual starring on either sido, all players giv­ ing the best that was in them. The old saying is, "That a loser always has an excuse for losing." Our boys surely had that night, being out weighted eleven pounds to the man and handi­ capped by the large floor. The lineup and box score will appear later on. On Saturday evening last the Mc­ Henry lads met and defeated the Heb­ ron highs. Contrary to expectations, the game proved a very much onesid­ ed affair, the local lads -having the better of the argument all the way tbru. In former years te&ms repre­ senting these two schools always played a close and exciting game, but the cop- test of last Saturday night proved a very tame affair. It was a case of be­ ing out-classed and that's all that can be said. The visitors, in spite of the big odds that stood against them, fought hard to hold down the score, but their efforts were hopeless before the strong and everlasting attack of the local squad. At the close of the contest the score keeper found that McHenry had gathered in 51 points to the enemy's 13. The Hebron boys took their defeat with good grace and hope to get revenge the next time that the two teams battle for supremacy. A social dance was enjoyed at Stoffel's hall after the game.
