THE SUPPLY REPUBLICAN
VoL XXIII
Woodrow Wilton
Has Passed Over
Woodrow Wilson, ex-president
of the United State, died at his
home in Washington on Sunday.
While he has been ailing for sever-
al years, the direct cause of his
death was a digestive disorder of
only a few days duration. Simple
funeral services were held yester-'
day and the resting place of his
remains will be in a marble vault1
beneath th ? floor of Bethlehem'
chapel in Washington Cathedral.1
When the sentiments of partisan-
ship that now sway the public
mind shall have passed away,
history will coldly write the story
of Woodrow Wilson as one of the
truly great men of his generation;
a man of high ideals and wonder-
ful mentality.
“The pride of heraldry; the pomp
of power,
And all that beauty, all that
wealth e'er gave,
Await alike the inevitable hour;
The path of glory leads but to
the grave.”
Supply, Woodward County. Oklahoma. Thursday. February 7, 1924

Supyly Loses Again
On Friday and Saturday nights
February 1 and 2, S.H.S. Basket
Ball teams met Alva Hi. This is
the first time that the S.H.S. team
have matched with a team in Alva
class, therefore we do not feel at
all embarassed becaused we lost
the nights. The home girls were
outclassed in ball playing but the
boys were outclassed in size.
Altho Alva beat us badly we co-
sider that our time was well spent
for we now know what we are going
to have to play at the tournament
and we know what kind of ball
they play so now we are going in-
to the fight with the slogan ‘Beat
Alva” before us. We know that
we have the goods to do it with
and we are going into the fight
with the winning spirit.
it school
Considerable interest is being
taken in spelling in the grades.
This week all the grade pupils
were asked to spell 100 of the
so-called ’‘hardest words in the
English language.” The time was
10 minutes. An accurate check
has not been made but from a pre-
liminary grading there will be
more than 20 who spelled 75%
correctly.
What words in the following are
spelled correctly? February,
peice, enouf, seperate, beleive, re-
cieve, relief, relieve, ment, business,
eny.
Don’t forget the Ball to be giv-
en by the Chamber of Commerce
on Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14th, at
the hospital auditorium.
Some of the young people from
Buffalo were here from Buffalo to
see the basket ball game Saturday
night.
Word was received here Tuesday
night that Mr. George Brant was
operated on in the Hospital, at
Wellington, Kans., and was getting
along nicely.

‘Dude’ Hart, who has been laid
up for some time with inflammat-
ory rheumatism, is reported as
being considerably improved.
