FIELDING AVERAGES
APPLETON WINS THE PEN


The Appleton Club of the Penn
Mar League made sure Of the pen
nant on Saturday by defeating
Newark Field Club 8 to 4. The
champions have won the title by
playing by far the most consistent
game all season Of any club in the
League. Newark made a squirt
during July and the early part Of
this month but again struck the TO-
boggan two weeks ago. The local
club had to go to Appleton with a
crippled team on Saturday, Gill
fillan and Herdman both being out
of the lineup. Chillas was touch
ed up lively at times while Work
pitched steady ball. The score by
innings follows:
Newark @ OIL l 600 "A
Appleton q l 0 3 2 90 0 Ks
Batteries, Newark, Chillas and
O'Daniel; Appleton, Work and
Creswell.
PROVIDENCE A CINCH
The game between North East
and Providence at North East on
Saturday was largely a farce as
North East won out by the score of
% to l. The. last years champions
were greatly weakened this year by
losing several of their best players
who went with the Tri-County
League.
CONTINENTAL DEFEATED
The Continental Fibre Company
and Bracca team of New Castle
had batting matinee on Saturday.
The. visitors defeated Continental
by the score Of Is to IA. Notwith-
standing the large score the game
was interesting as the score was al
ways close until the latter part of
the game. The score follows:

SQUEEZE PLAY WON GAME

Although occupying the lowly
position of last place in the I'll
County League the West End team
successors to Aberdeen, gave the
champions another hard fight on
Saturday and it was not until the
eighth inning that Newark won
out by the score of 2 to l. The
game put up by the visitors would
have won for them against any
other team in the league and
Smickel deserves much credit for
the class of ball that he pitched. 1t
was a pitchers battle between
Hogan and Smickel with the for
mer having a shade the better OF 1t.
That Newark won out however, IN
the eighth was not Smickel's fault
but was directly due to bone on
the part of King who took his foot
off the bag before catching throw
from Heath on Gregg the first hit
ter in the eighth. Morris followed
with a two-base tap over the fence.
Gregg scored on Willis sacrifice
fly, Morris moving up to third and
a few seconds later the captain
scored on a perfect squeeze play
Ferguson dumping the ball. This
was enough to win as West End
was blanked the next inning.
West End took the lead in the
fifth when three hits were made off
Hogan. Hogan tanner II and
Smickel 7. Ritz took Marsey's
place back of the bat and did good
work. The fielding of both teams
was sharp at times. The score fol-

ample for the other players by
showing lots of "pep.'
Gregg seems to get better with
the stick each week. He is without
exception the most natural hitter
in the league.
Another year and Gray should
be a valuable man to the locals as
he has all the marks Of conner.
Elk Mills shot their bolt the
early part Of the season and is now
the most consistent loser In the
league.
Clay of Elkton has apparently
regained some Of his cunning and
is now pitching better ball than he
has for several years.
1t is hard luck for a pitcher of
the calibre of Smickel to be with a
loser.
Heath the former Iron Hill
Penn-Mar League player puts up
a fine game at short for West End.
Ritz has proved valuable young
ster for the locals to have around
and should be even better another
year.
BATTING AND FIELDING
AVERAGES
Gregg has made a considerable
jump in his batting average and is

SCHOOL GARDENS.

The of school gardening in ontario and other parts of Canada will be urged from Chicago headquarters of the American Society for Thrift in behalf of the straus plan recently endorsed by United States Com missioner of Education Claxton who stated that it add s100oooooO year to the incomes of the homes of 900 school children. In Canada the purpose of the gardening that of education than the promoting of thrift-education in rudments of agriculture, but h has served both purposes This plan a of con sructve thrift adopted by the American Society for Thrift was due to the president Simon w. straus
 A report of the principal of a continuation school' at wnona Ont. W. B. Johnston, says; We have gone beyond the experimental stage and the school garden Is as necessary a part of equipment books or blackboards. We divide school gardening into two parts: The practical work and the teaching of agrcu With the first associated the related studies Mathematics. English Biology; with the second asso ciaed Geography and History, Chemistry. Physics and Life and Man Besides class plots each pupil is as signed at least three in each of three beds, with choice of radishes carrots. lettuce turnips beetrs. Each pupil makes collection of weeds, weed seeds and insects and prizes given the Fall Fair for collections and also for the best kept garden plots accompanied by the best kept dairy. Eighty per cent of school children did not know the grains farm" The states of Alabama and Washington and
 the cities of Chicago New York Buffalo Philadelphia Duluth Memphis, Saginaw and many others have made
 beginning which has proved the value of gardening work although the value of the vegetables which be grown in garden was demonstrated best in Memphis. The Memphis report stated: 'It is estimated that the two thousand boys of grades five to eight should nuay average at least ten dollars worth of vegetables from their home gardens and that the more than two
 thousand girls of these grades because of this nstruc ton and stimulation in sewing should increase the value of their sewing the home of at least 5000 year This would bring to Memphis homes s4O,oOO annually, and more than hundred thousand dollars worth in habits of industry and sefreliance."

SAYINGS OF MRS; SOLOMON.
(Helen Rowland in New York World).

Verify, py daughter, in every love affair there be these three: The man the woman-and the "Other wo- man" And a foolish maiden yearn- eth to be the woman. but wise damsel preferreth to be the other woman.
 The one woman hath all the rights but the other woman hath all the amusement.
 The one woman hath all the claims but the other woman hath all the attentions.
 The one woman hath all the honors Out the other woman hath all the bon-bons and flowers and compli- mentB.
 Verify. the woman becometh the wife. which Is painful necessity even as the morning after" but an affinity is a gladsome thing-even as "the evening before"
 Yea, man oweth his wife every thing, but he payeth 1t grudgingly. For debt Is burdensome thing, and love is like unto money; a man preferreth to fritter 1t away upon something frivolous to paying daily installments unto collector Go to-, a life creditor Is an abomination!
 Moreover, a man getteth his wife confused with kitchen soap and fried eggs and beefsteak and coffee; but an affinity suggesteth unto him violet sachet and bouquet d'armour and joss sticks and pleasant music.
 For a man catcheth an affinity with almond paste upon her cheeks and smudge upon her nose. He never findeth her with her hair in the wash basin and her puffs upon the dress ing table Lo, wife's dresses but ton up the back and her beauty hangeth on her curling iron; but a man believeth with childlike simplic- fly that an afinity's frocks grow up- on her and that she hath been born with a marcel wave.
 Verify verify, love is a .three-cor- nered affair and wise wife will play "puss in the corner" Yea, she will change bases with the affinity and hand over her husband with a pleasant smile, saying; Come thou and do the chores and the cooking and wait upon the family, while 1 go forth and live upon the alimony." | And behold the wife shall become his affinity and the affinity shall become the drudge And this would be re- venge. Selah!

.DlNEY DECIDES ID
 OPPOSE HUNT IN
 RACE FOR GOVERNOR
Chairman of the Democratic
 State Central Committee Makes the Announcement Through John Birdno

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. 19.-prior 10 last Mondays eeting of the Demo, cratic State Central Committee. Geo. A. Olney. chairman of tr tt Dody, be. lieved that he was going 70 run for governor. But he is now definitely in. the race n opposition to GeoigS w.. |. Hunt, whose definite mnolI.e- n .entiis expected shortly.
 f'Go ask my friend John Birdno: 1e's my campaign manager Olney Is telling all who inquire regarding his plans. He does not deny how. ever. that he is candiddte for gov ernor. He gave Birdno. who is now | receiver of the '. s. land office. auth ority to make his announcement Birdno is to direct a campaign of pub. | .icity that will be statewide. bu- reau will be opened in Phoenix with | in short time. gF
 We're going to make George Q | winner" Birdno stated.
 For nearly a year rumors of Olney's candidacy were flu the air. They were iisslpated when his closest friends -aid that his health would prevent him making campaign. For several months olney was scarcely regarded as even a possibility.
 Then came Mondays meeting Ol- aey displayed spirH of fairness, which, it cannot be denied. was sur- lrising t. certain of Hunts support CTS. They frankly expected him to give his own crowd tue best of it In is rulings But he followed parlia' mentary law and the state laws strict ly. He ruled that proxies regarding which no question had arisen should vote on the conflicting reports of the credentials committed That one rul' ing threw whatever victory there was to be gained squarely intc the hands of the Hunt peonles
 In the evening Olney was host to number Of the committeeman al a dinner. Several happy little talks were made by membee of both ele- ments in praise of the chairman and host.
 My opinion of George olney has undergone a complete revision, said Clay Hankins, of Dcuglas.
 In announcing himself as a candi' date for Mark smiths seat in the Senate. Reese Ling, who Is aligned with the Olney faction of the dem ocracy created no surprise. He was a candidate for senator in 1911 and il
 was generally thought that he would be out for something this year. For time 1t was reported that he was thinking of running for governor.
 oI believe that l stand good chance to be elected Senator Ling

NEEDLESS IMMIGRATION.
