GOODWILL ENDS
SOUTH
RIVER QUINTET
Non Miller and Jimmy Arm
strong Perform With Visit:
ors--Score is $3.50.
LOCALS HAVE IT EASY

Although "Non'' Miller and Jimmy
Armstrong were in the lineup of the
Arrow A. C. quintet, of South River,
the Goodwill Seconds found no par
ticular difficulty in defeating them
last night on the Goodwill court. In
fact, the first half seemed more like
a runaway than anything else with
the visitors on the trail. The tally
at the end OF the initial administra-
ton was 14-2 and the final score re-
suited 1920, the going In the second
stanza being more close than in the
initial period.
The passing and general work of
the Goodwill warriors was worthy
of commentator and it so startled
the South Riverites that there was
never a moment in the game when
the visitors had any chance at a
peep at the victory side of the tussle.
Miller did most of the scoring
from the field for his clan, while
Armstrong also showed up In fine
style. Earl Fiigen proved the main
scoring factor in the entertainment
by caging the sphere four times from
the field and nine times from the
foul line, which is some classy per-
Torrance.

RAILROAD VALUATION
Nothing in Recent Years Has At
 traeted so Much Attention.

No movement in recent years has
 attracted the atthntEkn Of railway engineers so generally as the valaa' ton of railway properties now being undertaken by the government, and the response to the call Of the civil service commission for applicants for positions was most unusual both in the number and in the high standing of the men it drew cut. Now that the preliminary grades have been an nounced and the board of engineers is engaged in the selection of men preparatory to making appointments. there is much discussion of the rela- tive advantages and disadvantages of utilization with this gigantic enter prise. The work has much to attract the railway engineer: and the gov ernment beard of engineers will dn- doubted,y draw very heavily upon railway experience and will be seri- ously handicapped. The problem IS vi. .hout preeendent either. in form or magnitude. The work is for the put lie. which will appeal to the sense Of duty and public spirit of many. Ths
 experience gained will be valuable in a field certain to expand rapidly fin the near future. The opportunity

TWO KINDS OF MEN

! Business methods of industrial corporations divide
 broadly of schools. The managing head of an industry feouenty referred of the Rocke feller school" or of the Carnegie school to explain certain policies or acts To the initiated this to be an entirely sufficient explanation.
 Rockefeller during his active business life as an economist machine plant was never wrecked until 1t wholly past patching Every wheel, piece of material every boiler, engine used, if not here then there. until impossible The parts were then stored as supplies.
 Every chance of waste watched and every possi- ble saving was made The only this rule was re. faxed when competitor was to be put out busi ness. This piled up tremendous in time when competition was about unknown when this market exclusive and during period when Stand. ard on was a practically complete monopoly.
 On the other hand. Carnegie wrecked a machine tho minute it lost its highest efficiency and when to replace would give larger output at less cost Every invention, every new process adopted proved and if this meant the rebuilding of a plant plant was rebuilt
 His policy was the limit of efficiency; the limit of pro ducton at the minimum of operation. He based wages and rewards o nthis rule and in this built up the producing organization this country any other mas had.
 It was policy which developed men as well as pro eesses 1t gave highest individual effort when the Carnegie properties turned to the United States Steel corporation their physical values were greater than organization and personal value. -..#.
