Uncertainty of Games

Never before in the Eastern League has
the uncertainty of the results of the CON
tests been so evident as this season There
are various reasons for this state OF affairs
one OF the most prominent IS the fact that
each player is tossing hts own fouls. \
club may start of and while not register
ing many field goals, can keep in the game
If some member of the team manages to
hang up the onc-pointers with any de-
gree of regularity
Up at Nonparel Hall last week. during
the Jasper-Grcystock game Charley White
kept the Jewels in the running in the first
half by counting on six successive fouls
ana then when his team needed them badly
in the second frame failed to come across.
AZ Reading on Saturday Camden bowed TO
the Bears, hut what can one expect when
player makes but three IN nftccn teul
tries as did charlie Fngle?
TO dope out the winners in advance ie
almost an impossibility. ON Monday after
noon several fans were discussing the
games Of the current week. and the unaui-
nous opinion was that De Neri was in for
one grand kicking at Trenton that night.

RUNAWAY WITH NO HARM
DONE; HAD AMUSING SIDE

On Saturday a week ago Jim Perrin,
who resides at Chafee's ford, near Bur-
ton, was coming to Lancaster with a
load of ties. To keep warm Mr.. Per-
rim dropped the lines on the load and
sat down behind the load at the back
of the wagon. All proceeded we'll until
the bottom of the hill the other side
of the Godfrey farm was reached.
Here Mr.. Perrin found himself run
ming into the ditch. Getting up he saw
the mules going over the brow Of the
hill ahead near the Vesperman farm
It seems that the chuck holes on
the hill had Jared the doubletrees
loose and the mules got away. The
force of gravity carried the sled down
hill for some distance with driver I'M
aware that he was without power.
The team stopped at the top of the
hill and, after some manipulation the
load went forward again.

At this season of the year when

GRAFTON of every parent The fact that
the state superintendent in his report
on the Lancaster schools, strongly ad-
vised single seats, is interesting in
this connection.

as it should be taught both in the
home and in the school,
The program closed with a piano
