The element of chance plays an i'm
portant role in invention and in no
case Is this more strikingly illustrated
than in that Of Thomas Godfrey, the
American who improved upon the
quadrant, or, rather, devised the sex
tant, the basic notion for which he
got by noting the reflection of the sun
from a pail of water.
Godfrey was giazier by trade. but
he had a tastc for mathematics and
was a man of some culture.
John Hadley had also invented a
sextant. apparently a development of
a suggestion of Newton's, found among
his papers at his death. Godfrey an
ticipated Hadley by about one year.
but for long time his claims were
not recognized. Hadley receiving tho
entire credit.
The glazier thus received his inspira-
ton for the instrument that was to
prove of such value to mariners. One
day, while replacing pane Of glass
in d window of a house in Philadel-
phia opposite a pump. he saw girl.

the sun reflected from the window on
which he had been at work into the
bucket Of water. His mind quickly
perceived the significance of the situa-
ton, and he was thus led to the design
of an instrument for drawing the sun

BASKETBALL LEAGUE
AT THE HIGH SCHOOL

In rough and hard fought game
the senior basket ball team defeated
the sophs by score of 16 to IA, at
the high school gymnasium. Thorn
burg played the best game for the
sophs while Mayer starred for the
seniors. In the first half Tomlison's
knee cap was injured and he was
forced to retire from the game until
the latter part of the second half.
The junior-freshman game was a
walk away from start to finish for
the juniors, the freshies not scoring
a goal from the field during the en-
tire game. Wednesday evening the
seniors are scheduled to play the
freshmen and the juniors will play
the sophomores. The league standing

NOT MANY GIFTS
Public Did Not Respond Gen.
erously to Appeal.

The public did not respond gener-
ousIy this year to the call of the Home
for Friendless Women for donations
as it has formerly. The unusually
small number of contributors cannot
be accounted for by those in charge
of the home The farmers have until
this year been very generous, but for
some reason they did not respond to-
day to the annual call of the home. 1t
is believed that they were not given
notice of the need of the home in time
to get their donations in. The authori-
ties said today that they needed help.

now in need of protection when
these gentlemen exercised the ire
mendous power of the office of the
president?
Is is not true that when Theodore
Roosevelt was president of the Unit
ed States the people we're willing to
follow him wherever he led? And
where did he lead them? When
did he turn in the direction of this
great uplift of humanity? How
long was the conviction delayed?
Now, on the other hand, what
can we say in all honesty and truth
of the Democratic party? Why,
gentlemen, the Democratic party
was preaching these doctrines and
offering you leaders to carry them
out before these gentlemen ever
admitted that anything was wrong
or had any dream of the hopes of
humanity. We didn't wait until
the year 1912 to discover that the
plain people in America had moth
ing to say about their government,

binary spectacle of two branches of
the Republican party, both of them
led by men equally responsible for
the very condition which we are
seeking to alter 4 \ = Therefore
to my mind it is a choice between
tweedledum and tweedledee. II
because what the whole country
knows to be true these gentlemen
deny. The whole country knows
that special privilege has sprung up
in this land. The whole country
knows, except these gentlemen, that
it has been due chiefly to the pro-
tective tariff. These gentlemen de-
ny that special privilege has been
caused by the administration of the
protective tariff. They deny what
all the rest of the country has been
convinced is true and after they
had denied the responsibility of the
protective policy for special privi-
lege they turn about to those Great
ures of special privilege which we
call the trusts, those organizations
which have created monopoly and
created the high cost of living in
this country-and deny that the
tariff created them not only, but
deny that it is possible to reverse
the process by which that monopo-
ly was created, because in the very
platform of the third party it is
not said that they intend to correct
the conditions of monopoly, but
merely that they intend to assuaee
them, to render tn EN- less severe
to legalize and moderate the pro-
CessiOn of monopoly. So that the
two things that we are fighting
against-namely, excessive tariffs
and almost universal monopoly
are the very things that these two
branches of the Republican party
both decline to combat. \ n

there are some people of very high
principle who believe that they car
