WEST HUDSONS BLANK
CELTIC SOCCER TEAM.

The American Cup tie game between
the Newark Football Club and the
True Blues and the match between the
West Hudsons and the Thistles, OF
Philadelphia, scheduled for yesterday,
were postponed, the former owing to
ground conditions and the latter due
to the fact that the Quakers did not
put in an appearance.
The Hudsons then arranged an ex-
hibition game with the Celtics, of East
Newark, champions of the Junior
League, and the "big fellows" won by
the score of 4 goals to 0.
Carter was the first to score for the
Hudsons, six minutes from the start.
This was followed by another goal from
Colville. During the rest of the first
half play was quite even, the Celtics
trying hard to break through, but
found the defense of the big fellows too
strong.
In the second half Colville started the
scoring with another goal, the ball
CHANGING off one of the Celtic players.
Carter lodged past the Celtic backs and
scored the fourth goal.
The lineup follows:

SUCCESS OF BUSINESS
DEPENDS ON SALESMAN

The first thing that a sales-person
is required to learn is the habit of
attending to business. No rational
man or woman in store life Tepudi-

vering service TO the patron. Every
earnest saIes-persOn admits the Obli-
CATION of his agreement to devote his
whole time and best thought to this
important duty to the exclusion o. all
personal matters This need is most
urgent under the present existing

A Railroad PLANTING Trees.

Did you ever count the trees even
in a small park? If so. you may have
an idea of what one railroad has done
in the mater of setting out trees.
The Pennsylvania Railroad believes
that it is a good investment to have
trees of fits own Each year many
ties on the railroad have to ne re-
placed, and new stations. too. have to
be built. In the meantime lumber IS
getting scarCeT and SCarCeT. for great
forests are constantly being cut
down.
The Pennsylvania wishes 10 nave
timber of its own in the years 10
come, not only TO furnish material
for ties and stations. but also It will
have trees to set out about stations
wherever this is pssible. This year
the railroad has planted 625.OOO small
trees. But these are not all the rail
rood has planted. 1t has set out 50
far 2.425.000 trees.
Many of these seedlings. as they
are called, come from Europe. This
is because they are cheaper there
than here. If any of the trees that
come over are too tiny to set out by
themselves, they are put in a nursery
carefully watched. When they have
grown large enough they are trans
planted again
But not only are there tiny seed
linEs there. There are acres and
acres of beds in which acorns and
nuts of various kinds. as we'll as conf
fer seeds, are planted Some day
these will grow into trees large
enough to use.
The plan is good one. It really
is carrying out the idea of ATbOT
Day on a huge scale.

at first-when settlers were a neces-
sity to the development of the vast
tracts of virgin pTairie-haS reached
a stage where fears are openly ex-

British possessions in North America
are in danger, in fact that Western
Canada is becoming "Americanized -
A recent issue of Bonds and Mort
cages. well known financial paper,
declared that:
Western Canada-the plains pro-
vinces separating British Colum bia
from the eastern provinces-has be-
come an American wedge that needs
but a blow to cleave the British en-
pire in North America into two iso-
lated and impotent fragments"
Commenting upon the above quota

says:
There is no doubt that the Yankee
invasion" of Canada is causing dis
quietude in high official circles in
England Very recently the London
Times mentioned the fact that the
Fourth of July was more enthusiast
cally celebrated in Western Canada
than any other holiday, and the COM
ment of the Thunderer upon this %act
was not calculated to bring surcease
of worry to the official heart of Great
Britain.
This immigration from the United
States to Canada has been assijuous-
ly encouraged by the Canadian gov
eminent until quite recently, when
our neighbor to the nortn began TO
realize that it had overdone it. The
masterful American pitched his tent
in Canada by invitation; but at once
began to assert himself. He is not
yet in the majority, but his ways, his
ideas of life, of business and o. gov
eminent have taken the strongest
sort of hold upon all of his neighbors,
who have adopted openly the Ameri-
cans manners and ideals. so that in
everything except political allegiance

the Canada fever among its people

of our excellent farmers. 1t is a
source of qualification. however, 10

took home with them. and that the
chances are they will at no very dis
tant day bring the new territory and
its inhabitants under the dominion o.

Can this be construed to mean that
England bids fair to eventually lose
another slice of her territory in the
Western hemisphere?
