Garibaldi, Orc., Jan. 15, 1917.
Editor of the Headlight.
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.
Respectfully submitted,
H. S. Brimhall,
Sec. . and Trcs. Garibaldi Athletic
Club.

ARE YOU EFFICIENT?
Try Thus® Tests, tut D® Not Yield to
Despair if You Fail.
Are you efficient? The awful query
refuses to down. 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.
The curious fact has now been brought
to light, however, that at the moment of
the fateful division there was consider­
able confusion In regard to the votes for
snd against.
