Kindly permit me to say through the columns of your valuable paper, that the members of the Garibaldi Athletic Club wish to extend a vote of thanks to the large and apprecia tive audience that attended the basket ball game between the home team from the McMinnville High School on last Friday night. It was the larg est crowd that ever attended a game at the Garibaldi Gymnasium, about 200 people being pre nt. T he game was the best ever played in our Gym’, It was lull of exciting thrills from start to finish, The first half closed with the score 11 to 11 in favor of | Garibaldi. In the last halt the Me : .Alinnvillc boys, alter a drilling by ' their coach and manager, rallied themselves, and lime was called with a score of 15 to 17 in favor of the visitors. \\ hile Garibaldi lost the game, the defeat has all the effect of a victory. Our boys, the majority of whom, had worked hard all day, and donned their uniforms in the evening, had the husky McMinnville High School Athletes guessing at every stage of the game. The visitors had no sinch at any time. At one time tn the first half the home team was six points ahead, but after that, neither team was over two points ahead at any time. Our boys have had no pro fessional training,, simply coaching themselves on meeting nights, but they are made of the stuff from which "stars” are made. Coach Malarkey of the visitors paid our boys a high compliment when he said, "with proper training for two weeks he could take our team and I beat any team in the state," lie be- lieved. /After the game the members of our club gave the visitors a reception in the school building, at which refresh ments were served and toasts and speeches made. The visitors are a fine lot of young men and enjoyed their first trip to the coast as a team. Con sidering the trimming they gave the ttllamook High School on the night following, 41 to 11, our boys may well feel proud of holding the once state champions to so close a score, and the whole Garibaldi community may well be proud of young men who have such ambition and love for the game as was displayed on last Friday night.

The clocks tick it the Hat wheels iu the subway thump It lbe ungreased curves of the elevated screech it. If you are an old business fogy the question burns in the eye of every pitying employee. A’oti find your wife measuring the distance from the range to the kitchen cabinet und your son computing the power ueeessary to propel a football In the lowest arc. The telephone company advises you to give your name instead of saying Hello.’ ” Blessed be the concrete of thought if not of deed. Concreteness euubles you to see Just what the efficiency musters mean Oue of them, William Fretz Kemble, tells In Industrial Manage ment "IIow to Test A’our Employees.” Of course every man who reads It will first test his most lmportaut employee, his father’s son. Watch and pad and pencil are all that are needed to ac quaint yourself with your virtues and faults. Iu thirty seconds answer as many of these questious as you can: Give the name of a vegetable, a met al. an iusect. a reptile, a fish, a man, a woman, an ocean, a lake, a town. If at the end of the half minute you have written only "beet, gold. flea. ad. der," you are pretty poor. If you have also put down “trout. Edison. Addams, Atlantic." you are up to human aver age of eight auswers. If you feel that you can go beyond ten answers you may describe the color of water, tea. beer, ivory, the sky. grass, milk, chalk, coal aud skin. But men who go beyond fifteen answers in thirty second« are rare. They should have secretaries, limousines and big black cigars. Next try to answer five "difficult questious” in twenty seconds: First.—Who is the greatest living general? Quick, now. and pick a short name that doesn’t take a long time to write. Second.—What is the most powerful force in the world? Perhaps love isn’t, but it’s a shorter word than militarism. Third. — VA bat is the greatest modern discovery ? Quick, man: Badlum will do. Fourth. —What is the greatest neces sity of commerce? (»nr secretary of commerce probably would not answer that in less than 11.840 words. You perhaps will write "ships" or "railroads" and pass on to the last: fifth.—What is the cheapest food for the Luman race? Bread, unless you are a fiend for len. tils or employed by the makers of fluted oat corn. But you ought to an swer three of the questions in twenty seconds, says Mr Kemble. If you an swer fewer it Indicates "slowness or delllteratlou in thought”—New York Suu. CLOSE ELECTIONS. ____ I Many Great Events Decided by a Narrow Margin. HISTORY MADE BY ONE VOTE. in Several Instances In the Life of Our Nation. Notably In the Hayes-T'1 ten Presidential Contest, a Single Ballot Turned the Scales. There have been many close electb ns in the cities. couiiti< s au.l states of thu great nation, ns well us In the nation at large itself, in the latter class the Tilden-1 Lives contest was the most sensational. In that memorable eiee. tion the result turned upon the tingle tote of the fifteenth member of 1 be electoral commission, who was chosen by four Judges of the supreme court Our History abounds with instance» in whi -h the course of events has turn ed upon single vbtes, and some of them may be conveniently aele< ted from the compilation made by Speu.ter Clark for one of Ills Cbautamiua lec tures. General Jackson was elected major general of Tennessee militia by one majority. Without that one vote he could not have fought the battle of New Orleans, and politics would have been different for a quarter of a’ cen tury. Martin Van Buren won the presi- deucy through his defeat by one vote on the confirmation of his nomination as minister to England. John C. Calhoun, as vice president, cast the deciding vote which gave to Van Buren what Calhoun never got for himself, although his claims were not inferior. Edward Everett lost the governor ship of Massachusetts by one vote, and that took him out of the list of avail- ables for the presidency. Thomas H. Benton was elected to the senate by a single vote. The loss of that one vote not only would have cost him his career of thirty, years, but would have meant the loss/to the senate of one of its strongest and most famous members in a most trying era. One of the great characters of Ameri can history might never have emerged from obscurity. Henry Clay cast the deciding vote in the constitutional convention which admitted Kentucky to the Union as a slave state. If Kentucky bad entered the Union as a free state it is hardly doubtful that Missouri would have done the same, and it is conceivable that there might have been no Mis souri compromise, and perUajie even uo war between th® states. The Walker tariff passed the senate by a single vote. Taft lost the vote of Idaho through a tie in the precinct of Boise. If ono more man had voted for Taft Roosevelt would huve lost con trol of the state. There is at least one case in which a single vote was the entire election. At the primaries for the Prohibition nomi nation for judge in Schuylkill county, Pa., one vote was cast. There being no other candidate or voter, Richard H. Koch was unanimously chosen. A miss is said to be as good as a mile, and under some conditions one vote is as good as a million. Ou the other hand, a majority of 100,000 may be worthless, as was ac tually the case in Indiana. At the gen eral election in November, 1900. a pro posed amendment that “the general as sembly shall by law prescribe what qualifications shall be necessary for admission to practice law to all courts of Justhe” was submitted to the elec tors. Nearly 100.000 more votes were cast for the amendment than against it But it did not receive a majority oi the votes cast for presidential electors and governor. The supreme court held that it had not been carried by the con stitutional majority required for tbs ratification of A proposed amendment That was a case where an actual ma jority at the polls lost in the courts. There would be no end to the prec» dents regarding the value of a fe* rotes if the search ' , e extended W foreign history. One es mple will suf fice to show that the < <> :ut of the votes is as important as the < nsting of them- In 1911 the Monls ministry fell in France because it was thought to be In a minority of fourteen, when in fact It had a majority of five. According t® the contemporary cablegram: The crisis arose over an interpellation regarding the attitude of the governm ent is to the chief command of the arm 1» the event of war. and the official 1st showed 238 votes against the government Ind 224 In favor. M. Monls was still on a sick bed as ths result of an accident and his colleague» leclded on resignation.
