 To the Editor of The Press.-What does Stafford propose to offer to those of her people who find Sabbath rec reation neither in sports nor in thea ters? Almost simultaneously with the opening of Sunday movies and base ball, number of protestant churches are suspending their services. (The Catholic church by the way, never closes her doors, winter or sum- mer, day or night). Why do we not, as a matter of course, open our public library on Sunday? It is hard to understand why on the very days when the greater part of our popula- efon would be able to make use of it, Sundays and Thursday afternoons, this obviously uplifting institution should be closed to them. In the name of all that makes for the higher life of our community I earnestly bring forward this question:
 A Stafford Mother.
 Stafford outmatched Hydeville both in hitting and in fielding in the first game of the series which was played Sunday afternoon in Keefe's Plains. The game was not a bad one by any means; after the first inning not an other score was made. Fox who has been pitching for Stafford for the past few Sundays had the Phoenix Riverside boys at his mercy all the while. St. Marie was the only one to hit safely. The Monson battery, Jackson and Madison, served for the boys from Hydeville. They struck out II men, but nine hits were made on them. The first man to come to the plate, Gilman, hit safely. Wise fan ned. Dickey, Madsen and Pallarck, the next three men to bat all hit safely. Huden sent out fly to right field which Lougheed tried to field after long run but muffed. Gilman and Dickey scored on this. Calchera, who ran for Madsen, and Pallanck. both came in when Dupre hit a single away past second base. Huden, Dupre and Fox were filling the bases with two out when Gilman came to bat for the second time in the initial inning. He flied out to Lougheed, who made a wonderful running catch which partly atoned for his error earlier in the frame. Thus the scoring for the whole game was over and the score remain ed to 0 till the end. Stafford filled the sacks again in the third inning but Jackson pulled his team, out of the hole by flaming the next two men to bat. Only four hits were made by the town team after the first inning. The Hydeville teams lone hit came in the sixth inning but it did not amount to anything for there was one man out when it happened and Fox retired the next opponent on strikes. Hydeville threatened to score in the ninth inning. St. Marie reached first on a fly to centerfield which Wise ran for and touched but which he could not hold on to. The runner stole second and reached third when Huden missed the ball which had been thrown to him in an attempt to catch St Marie off second. There was only one man out when St. Marie reached third but he re- mained there till the side was re- tired, Huden making the final put out on a pop fly from Lougheed.
