When one reads of the Glidden tour he naturally thinks of the founder as a man born with a silver spoon in his mouth or whose parents always had plenty of money and that he naturally inherited automobiles and tastes for things which cost money C. J. Glidden didn’t begin this life in a bed of roses, nor even in a silken lined cradle. He was an apt pupil in school until he left at the age of 15, convinced that it was up to him to get to earning money. He started in as messenger boy for the old Atlantic & Pacific Telegraph Co., manipulating a kev whenever the operator would let him practice: Soon he became an operator and then his earnings amounted to enough so that he could save the portion that was not given to his_mother. His rise was rapid because his work was earnest, and as he rose he saved. He established one of the first tele- phone exchanges ever operated in this country and the fortunate invest- ment of his early savings has made it possible for him to retire from active business in the prime of life and to gratify his particular desire, to travel; to visit 35 countries, cover- ing fully 50,000 miles with his auto- mobile, “which is going some for a man as youngras he.

Sunday morning watch- ers counted 14 undesirables depart from this shanty. Not only are they objectionable for their panhandling tactics, but also for the dangers they place the community in by their care- lessness with fire.

Tyler, the former Plainfield High twirler, was erratic, although he fanned 12 men. His wildness, coupled with the poor support he received, account- ed for the team’s defeat. Tigers Defeat Sterling.
