Milford chronicle., 1912-01-05

ABOUT one year ago there was
considerable talk about a play
ground for the children of Milford,
but the important matter seems to
have died in its borning. What is
the trouble? Do the parents ofMil-
ford not have sufficient interest in
their children to push the play
.GrQund into a real fact? Have the
~ folks, whose children have
crown up, and who possibly have
grandchildren coming on, no pride
in their future? If a boy Oh. girl is
given opportunity to play and exer-
else their muscles as nature intend

'oficia40f Middletown, Delawlte, the hotels
oeen hesof that town closed their bars down
ice anJtight at ten o'clock in the morn
his. fa' ing of Christmas Day. To a resi-
dent of Milford and the lower towns
q of Delaware, this voluntary act on
* the part of the hotel proprietors
! ! seems to be so unusual, that we are
v led to believe that they are COM
n posed of different kind of men from
~ those who conducted the business
in Kent and Sussex counties before |
they voted out the sale of liquor
1t was the universal practice of the
/ hotel people of the lower counties
to open as early as possible and
Va, remain open as long as a single
. nickel could be gathered in to the
tills The whole Of Christmas day
Awas given over to drinking oppor-
&N1nity, and the streets OF most Of
towns were the exhibition field
Ahalf drunken and total drunken
people during the entire day. Had
the hotel people of Kent and Sus-
sex counties given consideration to
the seusibilities of others, and have
conducted their business with more
decency and respect for public SEN
timent, their troubles would possi-
bly, not have fallen upon them; at
&
least not so soon. The saloon men
ofrural New Castle county have
had several lessons, and realize the
fact that the people will not toler-
ale the Haunting of the trade in its
results under their observation, and S
for that reason, are becoming more
careful of the proprieties, for which p
they deserve credit.

that the coming leader Is quietly spend-

that With that for a working basis
your first guess would be Arthur Irwin,
and Il IL not unlikely that he will be
the man.
Irwin Is closer to Farrell than any
other baseball man, and Farrell Is fully
aware of how much the old ivory hunter

all Of his deals and It would be hard to
find Q man who could make a more

than Arthur Irwin. He has been at 1t

Ewing. At one time Irwin was manager
Of the Giants.
Just how Irwin would figure in ex-

question, but his knowledge Of the ms
and outs of the pastime certainly give
him a prominent place In the list OF
probabilities.

Forty-fourth Street Club Aban-

Supervision. :
BYJOHN POLLOCK.

IAVING come to the conclusion that
III the English method OF having
referee officiate over bouts from
outside Of the ring was a dismal failure.
the officials OF the Forty-fou Street
sporting Club have wisely done away
with this farcical way of judging con-
tests and In the future the club will 20
back to the old style of having the ref
cree inside the ropes when the fighters
are In action. This action on the part
OF the club officials was decided on q
few days ago. and when Announcer Joe
Humphreys made the speech from the
ring at the show last night that in the
future the referee would Judge the bouts
from inside the ring the announcement
was received with great applause.

MAPLE Strip SEASON
Crop in Wayne County
Will Be a Good One.

Oh you buckwheat cakes and maple
strip.
According to H. e. Barnard, state
food and drug inspector there will b
a larger crop of maple strip than ever
before in Indiana this year, and the
Indiana farmers are turning out a pro-
duct which conforms more nearly to
the standard set by the states laws
than at any previous time in the his
tory of the state. MIR. Barnard says
that the buckwheat used to be adulter-
ated beyond recognition and the maple
strip used to be a diluted product of
cobs and brown sugar.
Wayne county farmers are just be-
ginning to tap their sugar trees and
the continued cold weather. now be-
lieved to be ON the point Of moderat-
ing, will make the conditions ideal
for a large output of maple sugar and
strip.
Specifications Endorsed by the state
board have made it almost impossible
to dilute maple strip and get away
with it." No sugar may be added. no,
can any coloring matter be included
The strip must weight eleven pounds
to the gallon.
