including everything from small tool to running a tractor. Miss Elem ming also presides over the kitchen teaching the girls how to cook, bake, can fruit and vegetables, and believe me those girls can cook and are per- feet housekeepers; they also make their own dresses. The appearance of the building impresses one upon en- tering as a real first class. hotel, so clean and orderly is everything.
 The boys get their instructions from MT. Smith but MT. Briffett also teaches them carpentry, painting and clearing of land. The boys also make snow shoes and basket sleds, the best I have ever seen. During the three days I was there the boys cleared about two acres of land for base ball field and play ground for the girls. Some workers, those boys!
 Tt is pleasure to have visited the school and it is all due to the manage ment for everything runs like a clock. Up at o'clock with a smile and 9 song, breakfast at ', at 8 o'clock, all as busy as bees. Lunch is served at noon and at 1 o'clock all are back on the job again. At o'clock dinner is ready after which some playing is in dulged or a walk. At 8 o'clock all the girls and boys go to bed, contented. They cannot help being happy for the teachers are all like mothers to them. It is always mama and papa in this school. Kindness is the watchWord.
 It was a privilege and pleasure 10 listen to the teachers talk to the children. Just think of teacher coming all the way from Massachu- eetts to teach native children. To me, that is a most wonderful spirit The lady is certainly entitled to great cred it for her sacrifice.
 q must add that for cleanliness this institution is unsurpassed, every building is modern in every respect with a perfect system of sanitation, However. improved fire protection is sorelv needed, also a larger hospital and laundry. I hope the Bureau of Education will give MT Briffett those added facilities. There should be no hesitancy in providing the full appro- nriation asked for this institution. l would like to see more mothers and fathers visit this chool and see TT themselves the wonderful work ac- complished, the treatment and train ing of the children in the hands of experienced and kind teachers" 7 MT.

Speaking g of Sports

Fans who are interested in the Industrial Baseball league are see- ing some of the best baseball ever played in that circuit. The games being staged on the playing nights at Walnut Fhll park compare very faNorably with the spirited contests that used to be fought out in the old Ward league, now matter of history.
 Two games were played at the hill last night and they were just packed and jammed with baseball thrills. Comparatively small crowds were present but this was more be- cause of the threatening weather than anything else.
 It's going to be a tight race in the league before the season comes 10 close. The Stanley Works team held on 10 its lead last night and first pennant. With Walter Scott as it's pitching ace, the team is forti- fled win good pitching and its de- fense work is superb.
 Paul Snyder has dropped more fly balls this year than he has ever be- fore, according to guess haZarded last night. In yesterdays game Paulie dropped a high one in center field, Just a few games ago, he let another go through his hands
 To us this seems funny because as we remember Snyder in the days counting back just few years he was one of the surest fly catChers in the game in this city. Some one remarked to us that he was gong hack. That made us smile heca use the last ball Of the game was hard hit fly that Snyder took in safely in the outer garden, Had he missed that one, the game would have not only been over, but Stanley Works would have been beaten.
 The announcement today that a
 
 few boxing club. the Hardware A. C.. was to operate outdoors at Me- mortal Field this season, will be welcomed by the fight fans i'll this city. According to the interest being shown in the fights between the leaders in the various classes New Britain should he wonderful city in which to stage fight cards.
 The Hardware A. C.. made up for the most part. of the same men who formed the Mohawk A. (. during the amateur reign, plans to stage Its first outdoor production in about two weeks. It will be a new-talent show and will bring back to New Britain all the old-time favorites of the amateur days.
 Fight fans here will welcome the roappearance here of Jack kelly. J GO Larrivier, Billy Taylor. Rollo Roland and all the others who have furnished thrills during the past few years.

The Notre Dame-Navy game itself
promises to be wide open match, with
both elevens striving to regain what
gridiron prestige they lost in earlier
defeats, the Navy to Davis-Elkins and
Boston College and Notre Dame to
Wisconsin. Both have speedy and elus-
i've backs, while their forward walls
are not as strong. But in experience
Navy Bup' Ingram's MidShipmen have
an edge as all his me neXcept Half
back CaStree have had more than a
years experience. Both elevenS are well
fortified with reserve power, and both
have good kickers, Notre Dame rely
ing on Johnny Niemiec and the Navy
on Harold Bauer.
The Navy squad of 35 was due to ar
rive in Chicago late today, while Notre
Dame will wait until tomorrow morn
ing. A large delegation of Midship-
men will be on hand for the big game
tomorrow. Seats along the 50-yard line
have been reserved by many notables
of the Navy, including Curtis D. Wilbur,
Secretary of the Navy; Admiral s. S.
Robinson, superintendent of the Naval
Academy, and Admiral T. T. Craven,
commandant of the ninth, tenth and
eleventh naval districts.
Vice President Charles G. Dawes and
Mayor Jimmie" Walker of New York
will be among other national figures
to witness the struggle.
Bands from the rival schools and
military units from the Chicago Metro
politan area provide additional color
to the great spectacle.
