They make up half a business man's stock In trade, they are the passports that can Becure an interview with any citizen of the American republic. . With them a man can turn abuse into apology ind make headway where no other ' 1 . ' human power could penetrate. An ger is powerless when met- with good . humor. ' Gruff aifd surly moods are dissolved Into friendly -' feelings by the active chemicals of courtesy and an appealing, per " sonallty. . Cheerfulness, courtesy . and tact are like oil on a machine. They help every wheel go around. Cultivate the smile that won't come off. It's the only system.

(Continued from Page 1) Millering was pitted against Fiser, and when the bar was at 11 foet, 3 inches, Millering was bested, but ev en 11 feet, which Millering cleared, is six inches higher than the avera&el Mlllerlng's splendid showing elicited much applause for he Is much young er and less experienced than Fiser, and displayed his skill to the best advantage. Heidenrlch drew a place In the hammer throw where records were being broken at every turn. As the races progressed, La Grande-1 began to lose, ground to Baker City. When the last event, the relay, was called, Baker City had 38 and La Grande had 36 points, with other teams considerably in the rear. For any other team tran La Grande to win the relay meant victory for Ba ker, and when La Grande's team trot ted on the field, the excitement was painful. Carpy, already tired from many races, led off and by a display of endurance, finished five yards to Bpeedy, "ran like a fool," increas::',;. La Grande's tead to six yards. Virgil Bolton picked up the 'race and pitted against the speedy Shlnn of Baker City, maintained the lead to his bro ther Cecil, on whom rested the failure of succeBs.of La Grande In the meet. The crowd shouting like Comaches, fellow athletes spurring their com rades on to their level best, the last and deciding lap was commenced. Around the first curve Bolton raced like mad. Bronough, the man said to be. the fastest 220 yard man in Eastern Oregon, gained slowly but surely.' On the last straight away, Bolton lent every ounce of energy his body contained to hls-task and though Bronaugh had gained preceptibly Bol ton threw himself into the tape a safe winner, giving the meet. to La Grande. Pandemonium broke loose-for, the first time in a decade had La Grande won the Eastern Oregon track and field meet The town Is still excited over the race and little else has been discussed since Saturday. No meet anywhere barring none- moved along with, better satisfaction to all concerned, and not a word of fault has been found; not a decision disputed, not a contestnat disquali fied, not an accident to war the occa slon, but all , the time record break ing event and keen but always friend- ly rivalry. This feature alone was worth more to La Grande than, win ning the meet, for henceforth, the La Grande high school will have to be recognized as the best manager of track meets that has been unearthed In many moons. Ned McClain, of Walla Walla and "Jim" Dobbin of Union with a large and competent corps of assistants, are largely , re sponsible for the amicable situation existing. Every official knetf his duty and did it impartially with Uie results above noted. For the first time in many years a track meet has been Iiroperly announced In Eastern Ore gon for Bow" Good with his mega phone was constantly at it and no occasion hiwever trivial but wat was given due publicity. . i The officials of the meet were, Ned McClain, referee, Dobbins, of Union, starter; State Superintendent Acker-' man, Circuit Judge Knowles and Tom Williamson, Judges of the finish; P.
