Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. Editor;
The Right Rev. Louis S. Walsh, D.
D., Roman Catholic Bishop of Port
land, and the Rev. Phil. A. Jouvin,
Rector of the N. D. de Lourdes, Cath
Ollie parish Of Skowhegan, Me-, are
the only authority to give exact
statements concerning the closing
and the opening of the Catholic school
in this town. AS have publicly said
to my congregation and to the school
board of the town In due time / was
obliged to close the Catholic school
for the only reason of financial diff
culties. When the finances o. my
parish will permit me l will reopen
he Catholic school without permits
sion of anyone. If the town is called
upon to accommodate the Catholic
children once in ten years | do not
see why anyone can complain when
the Catholic citizens have always
paid their taxes to support the pub
lie schools and when the Catholic
citizens have never received a cent to
help them support their own school
Very truly,

In: the sixth.
Detroit had two home runs to its
credit but neither came with anyone
on bases. D. Jones, the first man
up in the first inning, hit the ball in
to an enclosure which had been
built around the out field for the
overflow. There was no overflow
from the permanent stands and 1t
appeared easy to hit the ball over
the low fence.
Sam Crawford made the other De-
troit home run in the eighth. Craw-
ford's home run nearly deprived

Tommy Leach Leach gave chase to
Crawford's long hit and while run
