Mr. and Mrs. Frank M. Clay re
ceived a message Wednesday 'from
their son, Private Douglas M. Clay,
stating he had arrived at Camp Sher
man, near Chillecotlje, O., where he
would remain until mustered out of
the service, and would then return to
Paris. Private Clay recently arrived
in New York from overseas duty with

Cline, and Mr. A. L. Boatrlght's class
of young men and women.
This banquet has been an estab
lished feature of the Church for many
poses to deal. Mr. Emmett Redmon,
for several years connected with a
prominent brokerage firm in the
Phoenix Hotel, at Lexington, has
been engaged as caller, and will be

for fires. He also recommended' that !
dry batteries bepurchased for the
fire wagon, stating that the life of
batteries were something like eigh
eeen months, and that the present
ones had been in use for over two
years.
Councilman Merringer, in a neat
address, complimented the work of
the retiring firemen and commended
the spirit that prompted Mr. Lan
caster in offering his services to the
city as a hold-over official until his
successor took hold. He stated that
the men had been faithful in doing
the duty required of them, and that
they had done extra service which
had saved the city considerable ex
pense. By a unanimous vote the
Council endorsed Mr. Merrlner's ad
dress; which 'was made a .record of
Council proceedings.
Councilman Veatch .called atten
tion to the "fact that rock from the
city rockquarry was being sold,
when they were needed for use jm
thA citv streets (to whichever cit
imi in Paris will agree that they J
are badly needed.) Mr. George W.
Stuart addressed the "Council on the
matter, and stated that most of the
rock sold, or .at least which his firm
will soon be home "again.
Mrs. Oscar T. Hinton, of Paris, was.
gladdened recently by the appear-
ance of her brother, Mr. Revell H.
jWhitridge, who has been on -the bat-
tlef ront in France for several months.
Sometime ago" THE NEWS published
a letter from Xiucien Arnsparger, of
Paris, in the Army Ambulance Corps,
in which lie gave details of bringing
Mr. Whitridge from the battlefield to
the Army Hospital, where hi corps
was,, stationed. Whitridge was
wounded twice, gassed, and was suf
fering from "she'ir-shock." He will
recuperate in and around Paris, and
when fully recovered will resume" his
old position withax Cincinnati whole
sale house:
Here's a characteristic letter from
former "Empire" J. 'Monroe Swee
ney, of Paris, now Ensign J. Monroe
Sweeney, of the United States Navy,

there comes a feeling of good cheer, I
comradeship and fellowship that
sends a fellow's spirits right up to
the melting point and he couldn't be
a' grouch, if he tried ever so hard.
The tables will be set in the parlors
of the church, anu good cheer will
reign in abundance. A good time is
assured all who attend, and all who
attend will be sure to have a good
time, if they even only half try. A
cordial and hearty welcome will be
extended, and ' if anyone x' 'among
'those present" fails to have a good
time, it will be because of bad di
gestion, or poor molars. N Get ready,
all.ye!
The following invitation explains
the "aim's and objects"-of the ban
quet, which will no doubt, be one of
the most successful of the many sim
ilar events given in the church:

will all be open call, and will be held
Wednesday and Saturday evenings

The Exchange will be under the
direct supervision and management
of Mr. John M. 'Stuart, of Paris, who
has-been one of the prime movers in
the promotion of the project, and
whose hustling qualities and well
known salesmanship and acquain
tance with oil stocks will bring hi3
clientele an assurance of honorable
and, fair business treatment. The
stocks of all the most prominent Ken

the board at the new Exchange, and
it goes without saying that the new
concern will start business with a
good patronage.
'THE NEWS wishes the new firm

BASKET BALL TOURNAMENT
On March 14 and 15 Paris is to
have the unique distinction of entertaining-'
the first girls' basket ball
tournament in Kentucky, The pri'
mary motive actuating the efforts of
those who have arranged the tourna
ment has been to raise the standards
of girls athletics. Too long have
they been given a secondary place
and their games treated as prelimi
nary events." ""
It is significant that Paris should
take the lead in this matter when we
consider the splendid record her
girls' team has made this year.
The regular schedule closed Friday
night when the local quintette de
feated Lexington High by a score of
twenty-four to twenty-twa. And
this was 'but an echo from the other
games, for the Paris High girls were
beaten only once this season, and
that was by Maysville on their floor.
And what do all of these victories
mean? They mean that our own P.
H. S. holds the girls' championship
for Central Kentucky.
Invitations to the tournament have
been sent t6 about ten teams and the
following 'have accepted: Lexing
ton High, Winchester High, Clark
County High and Georgetown High.
They will assemble Fjriday morning
and the games will begin at two
o'clock that afternoon. The number
of events will depend on how many
teams come, but the final contest will
take -place Saturday night. Suitable
trophies will be awarded the victprs.
This will be an xepocn-maKing
event in the history of athletics for
high school girls and the promotors
are confidently expecting the sup
port of all the patrons and friends of
the school and the sport.

game when the whistle blew at the
end of the 'first half, when the score
stood 14 to 11 4n Lexington's favor.
