appreciated by all the sensible Gov
ernment employees.
Those that hesitate to vote in favor
OF the first and fifth questions, in my
opinion, possess a very small amount
of good common sense. Could any
level-headed individual give a good
plausible reason why the United
States Government should reduce the
salaries of its employees in order to
inaugurate pension? II the majority
OF the employees desire a pension, and
believe they do. why should the
Government of this great nation re-
train from giving them this pension,
and simultaneously surprise them to
death by giving them a "a per cent
increase in salary? IAN UNDERDoG."

Christmas post card Is one of the causes
of the Christmas rush and cites as an
example the fact that in a batch of mail
taken from the letter box in the office
92 of the pieces were Christmas cards

80 were addressed to California. The let

Festival hall did not sound with the
patter Of rushing feet and the noise of
cheering hundreds last evening. A bas-
ketball game had been advertised ex-
tensively between the Athletics and the
Cardinals of Mount Hermon, but the
latter team did not appear. At s O'Clock
the lobby in the town hall building was
crowded with persons waiting to get In

After s O'CLOCK Manager Henry Whitney
announced that the Cardinals were not
coming and returned the money to those
who had bought tickets. No word was
sent by the Mount Hermon team that
they would not come, although 1t Is said
that Manager r. l.. Culbertson knew
