SPORTING EDITOR NEWS:
My protege, Carl Nelson, cham
mark, also lately of America, is
willing and anxious to come to Perth
Amboy and show the wrestling fans
there how he can wrestle. Of
course, there are a few welter and
middleweights in or nearby Perth

is already recognized as the best. of
them all at his weight and in a class

He wrestled heavyweights like
Cutler successfully, and his list of
victims in the welter and middle
weight class is too numerous to
mention. 1t Is up to some club or
promoter only to bring the local
wrestlers and challengers with Nell
son under suitable inducements in

The Modest Runner.

The Modest Runner.
A peep into Tottenville Oval on a
Sunday morning when the weather
Is fair and the sun is shining will
reveal a youth, clad in running toys,
taking advantage of the crisp morn
ing air to develop the muscles in his
lower limbs and increase the de-
velopment of his lungs. He has
been a great runner in his day, hav-
ing broken many records in the
quarter mile, and winning numer-
Gus medals of gold, silver and
bronze at various meets in which he
has competed. He is now training
to represent the Tottenville A. c.. in
a dual meet with one of the rival
athletic clubs on Staten Island ana
l am sure that he will make his OPP
ponents Ieel that he is in the race.
The funniest part of Franks make
up is the extraordinarily large idea
he has of his ability. l wouldn't
call it swell head" because the
young gentleman is too modest to
be termed so, but it is an idea that
his accomplishments are unlimited
and unsurpassed by anyone in hui
mar form. Who would believe that
hard dancing would increase. the,
muscles in ones shoulders? He
claims that to be the secret of his
attainment and that is the reason
he does so much of it. Frank left
New Brunswick by trolley Sunday
night at 7 A. M. bound for Matawan
to see his girl. He made a bet be-
fore leaving with Bill H, the old
time Raritan twirler, of a good
cigar that he would see his girl and
catch the sos train from Matawan
to Amboy. Bill was waiting at u
station when the train pulled in. at
1925 p. M. but Mack was not aboard

since. Twill be some smoke, Bill,

Patriotic Instructor Potter Issues Me- moriaI Day Notice-Playsreund Committee to Solicit Subscriptions at Once-Missing Clarence Chase Located.

Postmaster c. 4. Potter. as patriotic instructor of the department of Con necticut, G. A. R., has sent out his notices to the various posts of the state relative to the observance of Memorial day.
 The gist: of the notice follows There is no more opportune season for the teaching of patriotism to the young In many places the last school day previous to Memorial day is de- voted to appropriate exercises, and our comrades are i'll demand as speak CTS. Patriotic instructors are to use their influence to have only represen- tative men and good speakers detailed for this service. It is to the children of today that we must look for the perpetuation of the beautiful custom of strewing flowers where our heroes sleep, and otherwise paying tribute to their bravery and their loVe-t1an which no man hath greater.
 '.-t is especially important that the little ones be taught the significance of the day-that it is not an occasion for sports and festivities, but the na- uonal Sabbath, upon which all ac- tivity of an industrial nature ceases, a day set apart to honor the men who saved the nation from disruption. Have you ever considered how, in the days we shall not see, these children. grown to manhood and to womanhood, will cherish the memory of the men of the Grand Army of the Republic who spoke to them in childhood? The words we speak now will sink deeply into the hearts of the tiny listeners and their influence will reach far into the future"
 Instructor Potter also points out that Memorial day presents a favora- ble opportunity for the demonstration of proper reverence for our flag, and correct etiquette in it's display should be insisted upon. Upon each G. A. R, post in the state is urged the import ance of some form or ceremony wSen the flag is lowered, especially when it is elevated to full staff at noon. Such service, though simple of character, is very impressive, and will serve to em- phasize the lesson of respect for the precious emblem which the veterans are striving to teach.

Notes and Personals.
Where the Momen Propose.

So far as proposals of marriage arS concerned in New Guinea it is always leap year. for in that island the men consider it beneath their dignity to notice women. much less to make ov- ertuSee of marriage.
 Consequently the proposing is left for the women to do. When the ebony belle falls in love with d man she sends a piece of string to his sister, or if he has no sister, to his mother, CIT another of his lady relatives. Then the lady who received the string tells the duslSy Adonis that the particular damsel is in love with him. No court ing follows. however, for it is consid- cred bad form to waste time in such a pursuit.
 If the man thinks he would like to wed the lady, he meets her alone and they decide straightaway whether to marry or drop the idea. In the former case the betrothal is announced. The man is then branded on the back with charcoal, while a mark Is cut into the Womans skin No breach of promise actions are possible in New Guinea, though if the lady is tilted, her friends may hunt her lover up and go for him,
