Mr.. Duffy has lone nothing more
faithfully than to boost the Newark
Club, and he Is sure in his mind that
nothing o have ever done, will or
can do compares with his boosting To
the Newark Club. / admire your zeal
for the Newark Club. but cannot say
that your knocking of one OF tho

this Columns gentlemanly.
Mr.. Kitchell, remember this, that the
columns of a newspaper are open 70
all fans who are not insulting In their
language to express their opinions. If
you do not agree with "A Fan" take
a fling at "A Fam but do not cast
vol insults on the writer, who may
pressed by "A Fan" We have a pic
ture In our mind of the paper you con
duct.
Some time in the future. Mr.. Kitchell,
when you grow up to know something,
you'll appreciate the fact that 1t Is not
so long ago that we were criticised In
a letter from a man just as determined
and insulting as you, to the effect that
We were boosting Iron Nam" MeGin-
nifty too much. How do you explain
that, Mr.. Kitchell? Be sure of your
facts, then go ahead. Whenever any
letters boosting the club and knocking
the sporting editor come In we have
only too gladly published them, TO
show the public what we are up
against. We hate to think Of what you
will be IL the Newark Club loses the
pennant. We bet you have a standing
offer for the making Of a hammer.-Ed.

After the Newark and Rochester
game Saturday the two clubs stood as
follows:
W. L. Pc.
Newark .,........,...... 90 IL 500
Rochester .............. IS 40 .5e2
Sunday Rochester won two games
and advanced in percentage seven
points. Newark lost one game and
dropped six points. What makes so
much difference in the won and lost?
Rochester was credited three n one
half points in each game. and New
ark lost six points for losing n
game. Please make your explanation
clear 80 we can understand 1t readily.
How Is the percentage reached
l.. TERHUNE.
To find the average OF a team n
must divide the number of games
played into the number won. For in
stance, Newark played 105 games Sat
urday. You get the percentage by d.
viding that 1903 into the number OF
games won. 50. A great deal OF
mathematics. A team loses more
points by losing a game than 1t gains
by scoring a victory. The popularity
of the Newark and Rochester situa-
tion after Sundays games comes from
the fact that Newark had won two
more games and lost one mo-e.-Ed.

procession formed in front of the school
and marched TO the church.

which the communicates made solemn
profession of their faith and promised

church, the pastor addressed them in
both English and German. His kind
words of congratulation, encourage
ment and admonition were character

in the children of his parish
When the moment arrived for the
communicates to receive their Lord for
the first time, the scene was most
beautiful and touching one, Two by

the greatest reverence and devotion.
Perfect order was observed throughout
the elaborate services, causing all pres
