GIRLS PLAYED FOOTBALL
SKIRTS HID BALL AND BOYS
WE'RE IN A PREDIcAaIENT.

w NaANAa NAH ~ \ ANAAAafA afH'A NNrH A
salem. n. j.. Oct Si.-Elmer has
gone football crazy. A few weeks ago
some OF the young men of that town
organized an eleven which played its
FIRST public game with Clayton Satur-
day week ago and came out winners.
Last Saturday they challenged the
'Brldgeton High School team. and at
the game played on the Elmer grounds
neither side was able 10 score The
older people Of the town are frowning
on the game, and those who witnessed
Saturdays tussle declare Il 20 be worse
than prize-hghting.
This Is not the worst of It, for some
OF the girls have caught the football
fever too, and one OF the misses OF the
High school surprised Professor Kean,
the principal. by kicking the pig skin
half way across the ground two or
three afternoons since. when the ball
happened TO roll near her. 1t has been
found that among themselves the girls
OF the school had been pmcticlng until
some of them became so proficient that
they lined up I'm front of the young
men Of the school and in a hard fought
game prevented the lads from scoring.
Those who have seen the girls play
recognize that on a square tackle they
can beat the boys, and their dresses so
completely hide the ball at times that
the young men are bewlderes about
where to look for It.
The publicity the play has caused
makes the girls a little shy. and It is
doubtful whether they can again be
persuaded TO line up for another battle.

cULLINe OF OYSTERS
GREAT NEED OF THE STRICTER
OBSERVANCE OF THE LAW.

Easton. Md. Oct 31.-"In all my ex-
perience as an oyster-catcher, l have
never seen so much young growth on
the oyster grounds where ! operate.
This is what Captain Henry c. Hadda.
way, a thrifty and observant oyster
'scraper OF 1ilghman's Island says. BY
young growth, young oysters that were
spawned this year and last are meant
The waters referred to by the captain
include the scraping grounds of the
Choptank. those between Tilghman s
and Sharp's Islands. and in the Chesa-
peake from James Point to Poplar Is
land. 1T seems a pity TO disturb
them" he continued Some of them
are bound to be destroyed, especially
where they have clutched on to mar
ketable oysters. A faithful observance
of the Gull law is more than ever need
ed this year This is the best law to
prevent the ultimate determination OF
the oysters, or Of reducing the guam
tity on rocks and bars so that It would
be no longer profitable to work them
When tire law was first made it was
better observed than it has been since
Fishermen have got careless about It.
But it is a good and a necessary law
and ought to be vigorously enforced
Its good effects are seen in the fact
have already mentioned Of there being
such an abundance of young growth
this year" Captain Haddaway does
not share in the cry about the scarcity
of oysters. Ii is the increase Of the de-
mand he says, rather than the diminu.
tion of the supply whicr causes prices
to advance.
1T is claimed that the oysters ar,
about gone from Miles river and the
oystermen, who are all tongmen, are
making very small daily wages. The!
are discouraged and unhappy. Thel
have nothing else to do and say they
cannot make a living oystering il
Miles river" This was said by Charlie.
A. Smithman, mayor ex-officio OF ST
Michael's, who understands the con
ditiOn of things there in this respect
Eyes" Mayor Smithman went on, "thii
has been the cry for years until people
have got 20 think there is no wolf; bu
the fact remains that the Miles rive
oyster supply has been growing smaller
and smaller each year, and the yearll
output now would not maintain q smal
lshuchng house. The outlook is gloomy
and I do not know what viii be The
loutcome"
Mayor Smithman believes and say
it is the opinion of most Of the intelli
gent tongmen that a strict observance
Of the Gull law would change things
and through its operations there woul'
be a great change in Miles river con
ditions.
It is a commentary on the sillines
of some human nature, that those whit
are to be benefited and whose business
is to be saved by the Gull law are
many Of them, its persistent violators.
