The first impression Of Sir Horace is
Of rather a slight, quiet gentleman
who might easily be passed over II
YOU did not look at his eyes, but they
hold you. You think Of his as
scholar, rather than a politician, with
the reserve of an Englishman, the
pracIousness OF an Irish gentleman
and the frendIiness that is called
American.
The unanimous election OF Sir Hor-
are to be chairman OF the Irish con
Tention should be pleasing to all
friends of both Ireland and England,
for probably no man in public life has
tn so large an extent enjoyed the con
ndence Of British governments and OF
so large a part and so many factions
of the Irish people. 1t il probable
that no other has done so much to
improve relations between the Irish
and the English
The Washington times., 1917-08-05
Sir Horace PIunkett's
Retort Courteous.


The Clifford Pinchots who left
Washington early in June for their
summer place, Grey Towers, in NIL
ford, Pa, slipped over TO New York
this week for a short stay. Speak
ing OF the Pinchots reminds me Of
their distinguished visitor Of last
winter. Sir Horace Plunkett, and q
story heard OF him recently. You
know he is quite well known in
America, has made many visit to this
country and has large interests In
the West His visit to the Pinchots
in the late winter was very quiet
and unostentatious.' He was only
here for a few days and was not
entertained. Mrs. Pinchot said that
he did not wish 1t, that he wanted
to be very quiet.
II seems that Sir Horace has long
been noted for his lack OF the art
of public speaking and will only de-
liver an address when positively
obliged to. But he has the true Irish
wit as any one who comes to know
him quickly discovers. 1t was told
to me that after one OF his attempts
at a public address he received let
ter from an old friend. an Irish lady
of somewhat sharp tongue, In which
II was told that he lacked two things,
lessons in elocution and q wife.
my dear lady" replied Sir Horace
permit me to say that the two are
one"

That a large number Of wooden

marine will be built on the Pacific

administration that all local ship
yards make such engagements as are

is preparing to build all the wooden
ships possible on the Pacific coast.
It is hoped by the administration that

the discrepancy between prices and

BOISE HIGH SCHOOL
SCORES A VICTORY
over BAKER eleven
Touchdown in Last Five
Minutes of Play Gives
Local Team the Game Fri
day on IA to z Basis.

Baker, Ore, Nov. 17.-Hard, fast
football here Friday between Boise
and Baker High school elevens, netted
Boise a IA to 7 victory made possible
by second touchdown five minutes
before the game was called. Supe-
rior teamwork. ability to execute the
forward pass effectively, and fast for
nation work on the part of Boise won
the game. While Baker put up spir-
tied fight and had the score tied at
one time, the locals were apparently
outclassed.
The game opened in whirlwind style,
Boise taking the offensive and by a
series of line bucks, end runs and
forward passes, pushed Rankin over
for TOUCHDOWN in the first period
Baker held Boise after that to the
third quarter or the beginning of the
second half, when by a cleverly exc
cuted forward pass, Baker made a
touchdown and tied the score.
TOUCHDOWN SAVES BOISE.
The fourth quarter opened with
neither team having an advantage. II
began to look like a tie game until
Babe Brown secured the ball and with
but five minutes to play, scored a
touchdown following a sensational CO.
yard run by Disney when he inter-
cepted a pass. Play was ragged in
this quarter, both elevens frequently
fumbling. Baker tried desperately to
score but could not keep possession OF
the ball long enough. Either the home
| team failed to make it's distance OF
| fumbles cost them the ball. Boise
was little better. The visitors had the
advantage of superior team work
which forced the ball to within strik-
| ing distance of the Baker goal just
before the game ended.
