Thousands of American women

their lives to duty.
In order to keep the home neat

NEW Jersey APPLAUSE.

A certain theatrical troupe, after a
dreary and unsuccessful tour, finally
arrived in a small New Jersey town.
That night, though there was no furore
or general uprising of the audience,
there was enough hand clapping to
arouse the troupe's detected spirits.
The leading man stepped to the foot
lights after the first act and bowed pro-
foundly. Still the clapping continued.
When he went behind the scenes he
saw an Irish stage hand laughing heart
lily. "Well, what do you think of that?''
asked the actor, throwing out his chest
"What dye mane?" inquired the Irish
man.
"Wby, the hand clapping out there, .
was the reply.

GETS
EVEN WITH LENOX

Walbrook roller polo team of Balti-
more, got its revenge upon Lenox last
night, but it took the hardest kind oe
playing TO do IT, The Baltimoreans
won by the score Of 2 to /, and thereby
atoned for the drubbing Lenox gave
them in this city a few weeks ago.
The Baltimoreans last night were
superior TO Wilmington in team work.
1t is a noticeable feature of the play
Of the Baltimore teams that they play
team work all the time. They do not
throw both their rushes and the center
on one side Of the floor and leave the
other unprotected, but they always
manage to keen one man on each side
OF the floor no matter how desperately
the other players aer struggling for
possession Of the ball on the other side
Thus when the ball is passed out Of
the scrimmage to the other side a
Baltimore player is thore to receive It.
Lenox started in to play this style Of
game But soon abandoned it, The
star Maryland Athletic Club team
plays a system with a man on each
side Of the floor at all times, and Wal
brook plays that method but does not
have It down anywhere near so finely
as M. A. c. The Baltimore and Ohio
team also played It when on the at
tack. but after scoring against Lenox
last week IL resorted to a defensive
game just as Walbrook did in the sec
end half last night The Whitehurs,
brothers when here on Saturday night
said that the system of playing a man
on each side at all times. with another
man covering the middle of the floor
is the secret of their ability to handle
the ball in the marvellous manner that
they do.
Withal, Lenox played a strong game
last night, and shot at Waibrooks cage
many times. but the ball either went
wild or was stopped by Walbrool's
good defense. Goodwin also played a
fine defensive game. and Stevens show
ed up well in carrying and passing tn,
ball Frank Traynor refereed. and
was thanked for his fairness by the
Baltimore manager. who at the lasl
game objected to Traynor officiating

''PENNSY" LAYSOFF
NEARLY2OOOM MEN

One Of the biggest lay offs in recent
years in the local shops of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad took place last evening
when nearly two thousand employees of
the Todd's Cut shops Of the company
were notified that their services would
not be required from last night until
Monday morning next
The action on the part OF the company
was not totally unexpected, as within the
past few weeks the time has been reduced
materially. The first notification Of the
reduction Of the working hours came in
the way Of a cut to forty-hve hours per
week, followed some time later by re-
duction to thirty-two hours.
With the exception Of those employees
who are required to keep the locomotives
and other rolling stock In actual use. in
repair all the departments Of the COM
pany at Todd's Cut are affected.
The 5000 employees OF the Pennsylvania
Railroad locomotive repair shops, known
as the Altoona machine shops, were noti-
fed yesterday that the shops would be
closed until next Monday. The men have
been working 80 hours week for some-
time.

THE BAWL, IN ITS FIRST
ISSUE, BA WIS OUT A FEW

''The Bawl," a publication printed in
the interest of the Country Rink at
Brandywine Springs. made its appear
ance to-day. 1t Is a most interesting
paper, it's columns being filled with
humorous knocks" against men and
things seen in local sporting circles.

scription rate will be n grab" it's ad-
vertising rates 81 900 Per line of i've
words" and as to reading notices W.
liam H. Cloward. the managing editor,
says you will get them whether you
want them or not"
One of the most interesting articles
is the editorial leader, which is a plea
for clean sport, and saws:
Rough House in srcrts is an on
spring of brutality and sports suffer by
contact. AS a comparison the big
blusterer goes through the world ac-
complishing nothing but the contempt
of disinterested and fair people, the
clever skillful gentleman winning the
applaudits of even those opposed to his
winning. In our first appearance we
wish TO register a Bawl against So
, called Rough House in all sports in
which we are interested. We want to
see the sports made permanent. We
want our young people to have the
fun and benefit of such athletics and
we. don't propose that they shall wind
up on crutches II sucn is possible TO
avoid. Rough House and skill are
not possible as mates. Rough House
finishes wl6re it begins, in fields that
the brain distributor never visited.
Skill requires mental capacity and both
develop together. We will champion
skill and may the best men and teams
win. The leaders of the "Bawl' have
an object lesson in our own field of
sports where one polo team has won
the admiration of the community by
the clever. earnest fair playing while
an equally competent team has been
severely criticised for their Rough

BASKET BALL AT
COUNTRY RINK

II is probable that lovers Of basket
ball will have an opportunity to witness
some great basketball games during
the present season as plans are now
being formed whereby championship
contests will be played at the Country
Rink at Brandywine Springs Park be-
tween some of the best teams in this
section.
Basketball has taken a strong hold
upon the sport loving public and no
better place for a game of this kind
can be found hereabouts than at the
Country Rink The floor space is
ample and a cage seventy by forty
five feet can be readily set up.
1t is proposed by those interested
i'm the movement to run a series of
championship games. Preliminary to
these games there will be games be-
tween local fives, of which there are
many good ones, and the best players
of these teams may be formed into a
team TO be known as ALL Wilmington
which will represent the city against
all comers in what will be an Inter-
City championship race.
It is proposed to inaugurate a series
of these games between teams in near
by states as we'll as in Delaware.
In the New Century team. New Cas-
tie has a strong one and many Of the
admirers of the team declare that il
can hold its end up against the fastest
ones. The games will be played on
Monday nights beginning on Monday
evening of next week That the ven
ture viii be successful appears to be
without question.

CARNEY HAVING

Although Manager Carney, OF the

club, has obtained the signatures Of a
number Of promising young ball play
ers, it has just come to the surface that
he is having considerable trouble get
ting the remaining members of last
years club u sign because o. the cut
a salary.
When the Tri-State League reduced
the salary limit to $4,000 it made it nee
essary to slice off a portion Of the SAL
aries the men received last season. The
players did not take kindly to this act
on the part OF the management, and
Barton, Hartmann, Poole, Strobel, Con-
nell and Magoon have not as yet signed
contracts.
All of these players are holding out
for the money they received last sea-
son. when there was virtually no limit
in the league.
