MY little niece had a favorite uncle
who always gave her ANYTHING she
wanted. One day she peeped into the
bedroom and saw who, she thought,
was the uncle, and said: ooh Uncle

turned over and the little miss was
much surprised to see another. where
upon she said: 20 Uncle Bill, gimme

There were some peculiar things
about the ball game that took place at
Island park last Sunday afternoon In
the first place it was so quiet that no
body on Main street could complain
about it. Then again, the people who
attended were orderly, no earousing or
gambling being noted among the sew
eral hundred spectators. In fact, the
whole affair seemed to be Just as sane a
Sabbath day diversion as an automobile
ride, walk through the woods or a
game of golf! Furthermore, it gave en-
joyment to large number of people 70
whom other forms of Sunday recreation
are not open.

Traffic Officer Wood has done a good
thing in turning all the automobile
muller warnings at right angles with
the highways which they face. With
the signs as prominent as they are now
automobile drivers can have little ex-

them. By the way, are there very many
people who will say that the services
of traffic officer at the corner of Main
and Elliot streets have not been worth
while this summer?

The fact that Wilmington will again

coming season, has met the approval

in THE EVENING JOURNAL yester-
day, that Ernest Greenwell had been

cants for the managerial BERTH has
proved a satisfactory move to the fans.
Greenwell is a big local favorite. both

all the qualities necessary to make
successful baseball manager.

ball tosser shortly after jumping the

'em across the pan for the Brown

His wonderful work on the rubber
clinched the championship OF the
league for the boys from the south

the New England League. and al
though the team finished in fifth place.
he managed TO come out OF the dust
with IL victories and eight defeats.
The following season his work on the
mound made the Lowell team pen
nant contender.
In 1910 his 20 victories helped ma
terially in the winning OF the pen
nant for the Springfield Club. OF the
Connecticut League. Ernie was in
great shape that season. and lost but
