The three-game series for the league

their second straight victory owe the

day game was 10 to u. Both games
We're hard fought ones and were filed
with close play of a strenuous kind.
On Friday evening the Mechanics
began speedily at scoring and had a
big lead in about ten minutes, but then
the Penns Grove men found them
selves and held the opponents com
pletely while the score was brought to
a tie, then a lead of Is to 10 in favor
of Penns Grove. In doing this War
rem Smith and Edgar Holton did the
bulk of the scoring, as each made two
field and two foul goals. Boyd Smith
made the rest of the points with a
field and foul thrown. As the period
ended the Mechanics had pulled the
score up to 1913 with Penns Grove
ahead. The scoring for the Mechan-
les was done chiefly by Mercer and
Patterson and Stephenson.
The second period proved to be al
exceptional contrast of the first, fol
nearly all the scoring was done by the
Mechanics and the Penns Grove team
did not score a field goal the whole
time. The former scored IA while the
latter made but 8, and all these We're
by foul throws. Stephenson proved to
be the big mar of the game by his
work in this half, doing most of the
throwing. Mercer and Irwin were the
others to make field goals and they
threw one each. Most of the work for
Penns Grove was done by Holton.
Franklin and Warren Smith, a,
the two forwards could not seem to
find themselves for the offensive, to
say nothing of their finding the
guards they were to The best
rounded work in the game was done
by w. Smith opposite Patterson, whom
he did outplay from start to finish.

Bartlett, Aiding Suburbs,
Plans to Make System Hers
Model for Nation.

1IaEsl sTAEE PHOTO

Washington's newly formed out
lying communities are to receive
just as efficient postal service az
the city proper through the estab-
lishment of about twenty-five sub
stations. They will be opened under
an order issued to Postmaster Moon
ey by First Assistant Postmaster
General John H. Bartlett made pub
lie today.
Building up of the service In the
suburbs is in line with a recent
statement by President Coolidge, in
which the Chief Executive made
known that he desired Washington
to be the model postal city in the
world, declared Bartlett. Data is
being gathered with this end in view
by the office of Postmaster Mooney,
and will probably be presented in a
couple of weeks.
City to Be Model.
1--WE are determined to give Wash
ington better postal service than it
ever had before" asserted Bartlett.
Although we already have 1000
clerks and 5000 carriers here, the
city will get every man it asks for.
1.-THE contract stations, which we
plan to establish in these sections"
he continued, "have not been nu-
merous enough here. 1t has been
our policy to enlarge upon this
6v.n v1nA - cfVpoo ic
convenient both to the. rural citi-
zen and the Postoffice Department
The contract stations are nothing
less than a regular station on a
smaller scale, 1t was pointed out
They are located in drug stores and
other places at strategic points where
they may be reached easily by sub
urbanites. A regular collecting and
distributing service is maintained
with the stores.
In Washington, there are at pres
ent thirty-one stations of this class.
Fifty-six to Be Operated.
BY carrying through the plans
of the administration about fifty
six will be in operation.
Additions are to be made to the
classified" stations, so called be-
cause they are operated by a super
intendent and two or three assist
ants appointed by the postoffice.
The latest Of these will be opened
in the store of Woodward & Lothrop
Monday.
"It has been difficult for the
Postoffice Department to keep up
with the expansion of Washington"
said Mr.. Bartlett, consequently, we
realize that there is an urgent need
for much improvement, which will
be made in an extremely short
time"
