FALLS GETS CLERKS CONVENTION Hall Successful in His Efforts at Meeting Held in City of Buffalo. «_._ ALMOST UNANIMOUS Forty-three Out of Forty-six Delegates Vote for This City - Chamber Gives Aid. Enthusiastic over his success in hav- ing obtained the 1917 convention of tity clerks of the State for Glens Falls, City Clerk Hall returned Saturday night from Buffalo, where he was in attendance at the annuaj gathering in that city. From the time the local city clerk arrived in Buffalo he kept on the jump in an endeavor to win over a majority of the clerks in at- tendance to Glens Falls for next year's convention, When he began his campaign to se cure the convention for this city he was in competition with Albany, Ut ca and Fulton. During the course of the convention he won over the Al bany and Utica boosters and when the vote on thd next convention city was taken just before adjournment Satur- day noon, Glens Falls received forty. three out of forty-six votes, the other three going for Fulton. City Clerk Hall is warm in his praise of the aid given him by the local Chamber of Commerce. Literature, de- scribing the city and its attractive sur- roundings wer supplied the city clerk by the Chamber of Commerce and he distributed it liberally. On the floor of the convention prior to the taking of the voté Saturday forenoon, City Cerk Haly was given the privilege of mak- ing known to the clerks the advant- ages of having their mest convention in this city. Hs outlined the beauties Of Lake George, the extent and variety of manufacturing in the city, the in- jcerest' in historic spots in this vicin- ity, the growth of the city and cordial relations that always exists between convention guests and tlie people of the city. City Clerk Hall did not over- look the fact that Hon. Charles E. Hughes, Republican presidential can- didaté, was born in Glens Falls, that his birthplace was within a stone's throw of city hall and that as gover- nor he signed the bill that made Glens Falls a tity, In closing, City Clerk Hall expfessed that hope that Hughes may bécome the next president and there was gréat applause. In his campaign to secure the con- vention the loca city clérk did not overlook the wives of the clerks tn at- tendance with théir husbands. He con- ferred with each and everyone of them and by his descriptions of our beauti- ful city won them over for Glens Falls as the fiext convention city. City Clérk Hall says he knows that the clerks respect the wifhes of their wives as .regardé the convention cities and hé saw to it that they favored Hens Falls. As for the business sessions of the convention, City Clerk Hall was much impressed. He said that the dicussion of methods and details brought out numerous valuable suggestions for the conduct of offices of city clerks and he beliéves that the sending of clerks to the convention is moriey well in- vested. Out of fifty-six clerks in the State, Forty-six were in attendance. There were fumerous sightsécing trips for thé clerks and their wives, including a visit to NMiagara Falls, and City Clerk Hall states that the récgp- tion of the visitors By the geople, of : Suffaly was mst dordidl l a 1.4 Che wth 3 ._ f TALAN FORCES SCORE HECTOR Have Penetrated Suburbs of Tolmino Defeating Aus- trian Troops.
