Swapping their opponents on the
tatter's home court, the Crescents,
of Midtown, soon learned that the
Catholic Club, of New Brunswick,
was no match for them last night.
The final score was $3.50. 1t must
be remembered that the manager OF
the Perth Amboys gave as his main
reason for not entering his team In
the proposed county league that the
G. c., who were doomed as an entry,
were not strong enough to furnish
any competition. This reason yes
terday was given its full value.
Who starred? Why, they all did,
of course. Garland shot the most
baskets, caging the sphere about IA
times, as near as the scorer could
make out.

ANNEX SECONDS.
DEFEATED, 1853

In the preliminary attraction on
the Auditorium court yesterday af-
ternoon, the Scrambos, of the Perth
Amboy High school, met and defeat
ed the second team of Curtis High
school annex by a 1879 tally. ORR
ginally the Island squad was booked
to oppose the Freshmen but for some
reason, the '16 bunch did not have
five tossers and so the Scrambos
jumped into action. 1t was not the
second team of the local high school
as the crimson and white reserves or
seconds are supposed to be better
than the Scrambos.
Harry Hardiman played a great
game at the pivot and is responsible
in a great measure for the victory
Of the locals. He shot two field
goals at times when the score was
close and by his work in this man
ner kept confidence stored in his
bunch.
"Schrimp" Flyn, known as ed
die" and Eugene Parker also per-
formed in admirable style. The Wis
itors worked hard and gave the locals
a stiff tussle throughout.

William A. Lydon, president of

sorrow. The police were told to
remove her. They did.

those who are in arrearage beyond
that period. So we are making a
close canvass of our books, and obey

one cent stamps to the wrappers of
all those who have fallen behind be-
yond II months. This is too heavy
a burden in way of postage to carry
long, SO we shall mail but three cop

of it costing us 80 some odd cents to

Carthage, Miss, reacher our desk
for the first time. 1t is one of the
oldest papers in the state and has
played CONSPICUOUS part in writing
the history of the commonwealth
since it entered into newspaper life.
Somehow or other it had never come
about that the Herald had exchange
relations with this excellent period
cal which we now welcome in that
way. A newspaper named after the
city and nation which for ages dispu-
ted with Rome in her challenge to
become the mistress of the world,
and produced a Hannibal, surely has
inspiration behind it to be active in
this part of the worlds melodrama
and seems to have lived up to such
expectations.

Why the Dollar Counts

In this campaign the issues lie between the forces OF
Representative Government and Popular Government.
In Representative Government only part of the people
have influence those with political faith, who spend
fortunes any direction where their ends fur
thered for money.
In Popular Government all the people have influence,
because their executives and Legislators do dare
thwart the expressed will of the people.
Representative Government ever, this year is being
supported by the money of the Interests Its being
avshly give the voters wrong impression of Wilson.
Popular Government this year, win depend on the
truth being told about Wilson We publish his record
and platform broadcast that controvert it.
