1-to-0 contest and it was net enough to
win the game. he had to go. step further
and catch his brother as he doZed briefly
in the vicinity of sack one.
Winchester's hopes scared in the open
ing act, when with two away Manning
banged out a three-bagger to right. but
Lamson went down on strikes and the
scoring hopes promptly hit terra frma.
The next two innings were of the three
of-a-kind variety-all outs-but the
fourth was the lucky number. Rose sin
gipd to center and ren1sed on third when
Manning followed with another single to
right. \ wild pitch scored Rose with the
only run of the game.
The fifth started well for Greenfield.
Walsh singled and Drungool advanced
him with a pretty sacrifice, but Buck
thought things had gone far enough and
struck out Burns. Wagner was out, Don
ovan to Thompson. \ double play in the
seventh knocked Greenfield's chances. al
though they had men on second and third
and only one down. y hit would nave

Greenfield threatened to tie in the
ninth. L. Rose tapped brother Buck"
for nice single and went to second when
the ball rolled through Quigley. HoIley
sacrificed Rose to third and hope almost
started to spring eternal for the NIassa-
chusetts outfit, but a pair of large Ks
was the final offering. as Buck" decided
to keep the victory himself. inasmuch as
it would have been all in the family any
way.

MESSAGE FROM SPANISH CHIEF.

In connection with the new interna.
tional scout magazine representing all
the scouts Of the world, the chief scout
Of Spain makes this statement:
ITO create an international journal
which shall be the expression Of the
common ideals that flourish beneath
the boy scouts flag throughout the
world; and with that journal to CARRY
to the farthest corners Of the earth
the common desire for physical and
moral redemption for which men Of
goodwill in all climes are striving, will
be to endOw with new strength, with
the winged and powerful strength of
written thought, this gigantic crusade
Of universal brotherhood which already
binds with strong links the youth of
all countries, without distipction Of
race or frontier.
''The boy scouts Of Spain, who are
working for their country and for their
well-being, follow the inspiration Of
Baden-Powell's immortal doctrine,
cannot forget that they are part of
that enterprise, or that in all nations
they have brothers with the same de-
sires and ideals; and for this reason
they rally with enthusiasm to the
work of their common publication,
which will find in us fervent propa-
gandists If 1t serves, as we hope, to
strengthen and encourage the noble
scout aims"

SCOUTS sow GOOD HABITS

Scouts everywhere are interested in
gardening and forestry. In a recent
issue of Boys Life, the chief scout
executive reminds the boys of the
movement that there Is another kind
Of planting going on all the time,
whether they are conscious of the
process or not, Mr.. West says:
"Boy time is essentially planting
time. The habits yot are forming now
are the ones you will reap the harvest
Of when you get to manhood. And
that is where scouting comes in as a
sort Of expert gardener to show you
what to plant and how and why to
plant 1t.
"One of the accusations that is
sometimes made, with Some justice,
against the American people, as a
whole, is our lack of thoroughness, our
tendency to be Jacks Of many trades
expert at none. This charge should
never be allowed to fit or hit a scout.
Thoroughness and the doing of a given
task, pom honor, to the best Of our
ability should be, and I am glad to
shy usually is, characteristic Of boys
who are scouts. Even II it is small
thing in itself, like learning to tie
a certain kind Of knot, keep at 1t until
you have the trick completely mas.
tered, and can tie the knot any time,
any place, just right, as speedily and
deity as possible.
"Take the matter Of first aid, when
you are learning to make bandages
and tourniQuets, studying and prac-
ticing what to do in case Of certain
accident or how to prevent that acct
dent from happening, put your whole
mind and skill into 1t. Learn to do
It, not any old way but just right,
SO that II the time comes when You
are called upon, in the flash Of an
instant to put that knowledge to prac-
teal use, you will not be found want
ing.
BE prepared. Sow habits Of en-
ergy, patience, perseverance. Train
your mind and body to work together
In splendid alliance. Live clean lives,
think clean thoughts, read great books,
follow true heroes, like Abraham Lin
coin and Theodore Roosevelt. Plant
for tomorrow and manhood"

AN AUTOMOBILE
SHOW FOR DOVER
Capital City Sets Pace for
Towns in Rural
Delaware

An automobile show for Dover
A high sounding phrase which
turned out to be a successful con-
crete fact. Some weeks ago, the
idea was thought of-and among
business men in Dover,-to think
is to act. The rest was real
automobile show last week. Nor
was it a small town affair. The
Armory was secured, spaces rent
ed, decorations more than Ordinar-
lily attractive, the affair took on
metropolitan air. There were
between 20 and 25 exhibits includ-
ing Hardesty and Sons with the
Ford, Hastings, the Auburn, Dover
Garage Co., with Prest-o-Lite,
Martindale with Lyons Storage
Batteries, Dover Motor Service,
auto supplies, Hayes Wilson, Paige
Cars; Overland Harper Co., WHY'S
Knight and Overland; Section and
Sons, Nash; Hardesty, Dodge;
Fooks Auto Co., Buick and Chew
Orelet.
The whole affair was a complete
success. With its blaze of light
and color, the music of the attend
ing orchestra, the event became a
social gathering as well as a bust
ness proposition. And for Dover,
it was a booster. The town is to
be congratulated is the comment
on all sides.
Locally, why not Newark?
