Centennial Pageant at Mooresville Ends Big Two-Day Birthday Celebration

LABOR APPROVAL OF LA FOLLETTE IK OVERWHELMING Last Resolution of Convention Scores Defense Day Test, By Times Special SOUTH BEND. Ind.. Aug. 30Last of the delegates to the State Federation of Labor convention which ended Friday left for their homes today. Indorsement of La Follette and Wheeler was the closing act of the convention. The last act was a great triumph for the La Follette forces. When the final vive voce vote was taken the result was so overwhelming that for the first time the antis did not ask for a division. Instead they contented themselves with asking that they turn in their names to the secretary and be recorded as voting against endorsement. Lees than 100 were so recorded. The opposition started out aggressively at the morning session and fought a stubborn, losing battle. However, It lost heart when A D. Hinch of the resolutions committee failed to present a minority report opposing indorsement, and toward the close the La Fqllette adherents had things their own way. The last resolution adopted was one condemning Defense Test day.

A Puzzle a Day ZXZ I I Every one is familiar with the game of "Tit Tat Toe, Three, in a Row.” One player makes an X in one of the nine sections of *he diagram: the other makes an O, and each one plays in turn, the game being to make three crosses or cir"les in a row, and thus win the contest. The first player made an X in the center. Now comes the cruclaj move. If the second player puts an O in a wrong square, the first player is certain to win, if he plays properly. Can you discover the play which will make the second player lose, and can you show the system which the first pjayer must adopt to take advantage of his opponent's mistake? Yesterday’s answer: The second partner lost $32. The division was made as follows: A, the first partner, was to receive 1-5 of the profits; B, the second partner, 4-5. A took SSO before the settlement. Then from the final receipts of $540, B took S4O (4-5 of A’s SSO), and then S4OO (4-5 of what remained. Thus B received $440. But, in a correct division, the SSO taken by A should have been included in the total receipts, thus making a total of $590. B, therefore, should receive 4-5 of $590. namely, $472. Thus B, the second partner, lost $32. the difference between $472 and $440.
