CONGRATULATIONS

A man is best known by his close
associates. This is not only true of
business men and those engaged In
general industry but it is very true OF
the newspaper industry. 1t does not
take long for the galley boy and the
sob sister to size up the "chief." Con-
sequently the following editorial, ap-
pearing in the Dayton News, of Day
ton, Ohio, the paper of Governor Cox,
the democratic presidential nominee,
and written by it's editor, Howard
Egbert, is Illuminating and throws
considerable light upon its closeup
character:
''It is hardly necessary to say that
the news Of the nomination Of Cover
nor James NJ Cox for president Of the
United States, by the democratic par
ty in national convention at San
Francisco, furnishes the theme for
unalloyed happiness at the News Of
fee. Those of us who have been his
associates in the conduct of this
paper; have been talking about this
thing for a long time. We rather ex
pected it, in fact 1t is more crafty
ing to thing that the great victory
has come. Life is ever so much
sweeter to everyone, from press room
to the roof. The employees of the
News are conscious of the great dis
tinction coming not only to the news
paper itself and it's publisher, but to
the city Of Dayton, and the nation as
thoughts under the circumstances of
the moment. We want to congratu-
late the "Chief" because we believe
he deserved to win. 1t was written
in the stars that this greatest honor
should come to him. His record as
governor of Ohio district, and as pri-
vate citizen in Dayton Is brilliant.
No man who endeavors first to be of
service to his fellows cannot be denied
a place in the world. The universe
admires man who sticks everlast-
ingly at 1t until the principles he
favors are triumphant
Governor Cox is a man of princi-
pals. He always has been. Whether

l MEN
PLAYED GOOD
FLOOR GAMES
Might Have Made Better
showings in Finals Than
Did Fairviiew.

While Fairmont high school was
eliminated in the third round Of the
tournament by Fairview, after the To-
Gals had defeated weston in the sec
ond round. there Is much Of a satis-
Tying nature in the showing OF Kahn's
men. They made Fairyiew play hard
all the way and only a few sensa-
tonal shots saved the day for Boyer's
men In the last few minutes OF the
contest. 1t would perhaps have been
better for the hopes and ambitions
of Marion county fans for some coun.
" team to take the cham ionship II
Fairview had been eliminated by Fair
mont instead Of lust the opposite TAX
ing place. The writer believes that
Fairmont would have made letter
showing against Buckhannon than
Fairyiew, IL for no other reason than
the fact that Hill would have been
better able to offset the playing Of
II. Flanagan, Buckhannon,s star CEN
ter, than Wilson who played center
for Fairview In the finals. At Buck
harmon "a few weeks ago, %. Flanal
gan made nine baskets playing against
He'll, but the local lad In that game
was not playing anything like the
ball he played In the tournament
games, and besides he was Just dying
to get whack at Flanagan to even
up for his hard luck In the session
ut Buckhannon. Another thing the
writer believes is that the Fairmon>
team as constituted in the tournament
games was better able man for man,
with the exception perhaps of Small,
to stand the hard physical endurance
test required to get into the finals.
Fairview was all but dead on her
feet" when she went into the contest
with Bucxhannon. Fairmont could
likely have gone through as many
games as Fairview did and stood the
strain better; because 1t is almost I'M
possible to fatigue such men as
Brown, Dean, Hill and Troxell, es-
pecially II there is any chance for
honors like the first place in the
tournament in sight
Let IT be understood, however, that
we are not at all trying to cheat Fair
view out of any honors, or beltttle the
gallant efforts OF Boyer's men-we
are simply telling a few facts as We
see them. In every encounter this
year between Fairmont and Fafrview
Fairview proved the better team In
each single game, and deserves the
county championship. But this does
Of necessity contradict the writer's
contention that as betwe an Fairview
and Fairmont playing Buckhannon al.
ter a two day grind Fairmont would
likely have made a better slowing.
Hill of Fairmont took three OF the
five individual prizes and had his
team remained in the semi-finals anu
