BASEBALL BRIEFS

The Bloomington baseball associa-
ton is without grounds for the com
ing season. The sale of the tract to
a Clinton syndicate to be cut up into
building lots has just been effected,
and the officers of the local club are
worrying over the difficulty of find
ing suitable location for a new dia-
mond. The old grounds were owned
by the fair and racing association,
and were historic, having been the
scene of many notable horse races
in years gone by. The tract COM
prised 81 acres, and the mile track
was considered to be among the best
In the state. The grounds were also
ideally adapted for baseball pur-
poses, and it will be difficult to find
any which will be as suitable. The
rapid growth of the city to the east
has made the land desirable for resi-
dence purposes. The Clinton -syndi-
cate is headed by Congressman We
pasian Warner. The price paid for
the 81 acres was $20,500.

A recent editorial in the Con-
stitution sets out very clearly
several good reasons and strong
arguments for a nine months
school term. It holds to the
opinion that ''the physical result
on a child is exhausting to the
body, tagging to the brain and
creative of eye troubles with no
compensation in the way of edu-
Vocational results" Exhaustive
data taken in many countries
bears out the theory that nine
months in the twelve is sufficient
ly long, a longer term is detri-
mental to the physical powers
and mental development of chill
dren.

Last week Mou1trie

Last week Mou1trie re-en-
dorsed prohibition after a one
years trial. The contest was a
hot one, and the result demon
strated clearly, that in the opinion
OF majority of the citizens, pro-
h1bltlon is not only success, but
wholesome, promotive of the best
interests of one of the most thriv-
ing OF Georgia's towns. It seems
that the prohibition towns in
South Georgia as a rule are gain
ing the ascendency over the bar
room towns, to illustrate: Mou1-
trie, Dublin, Waycross and Cor
dele as against Americas, Albany,
cambridge, Thomasville and
Quitman. Of course there are
others and beyond question Val
dosta and Fitzgerald are except
tlons to the rule, and there NAV
be exceptions on the dry list, but
we believe that critical compar-
ison of complete lists of the
several Georgia towns with
a population ranging from one
to ten thousand will show great
err degree of prosperity in the
dry communities, but on the
idea of letting we'll enough or
mighty well alone, we have no
particular kick coming at this
time. We want to stress the
idea that the claim that probibi-
tons kills a town is not well
founded in fact, and cite the
Moultrie case as a very clear
demonstration of that fact.
