CINCINNATI WINS
 PRETTY CONTEST Grand Stand Rally in Ninth by
 the Coal Barons GAME & O'CLOCK TODAY Frank Smith Did Beautiful Work in the Box and Had the Big Leaguers
 Practically at His Mercy.
 Sensational Fielding.
GAME & O'CLOCK TODAY

In a game replete with pretty hitting and sensational work in the field Cincin- natl squeezed in the winning run yes- terday and defeated the Coal Barons by the close score of to ,.
 Frank Smith. the favorite twlrler with the fans, went in the pox for the first time this year and for i've innings he had the big leaguers practically at his down during the short period of MT. Smiths reign.' Three others succeeded in getting safe ones, but the more the big pitcher worked the better he got and the rooters expressed disappointment when he went to the bench at the end of the fifth.
 Again and again the Birmingham play CTS were robbed of what looked good for hits by the sensational work of the visit ors When 1t came to pounding the ball square on the nose O'Brien's aggrega- tion had the Reds beat a block, but high way robbery in the infield and outfield set the Barons down hard and threw ! hush over the crowd.
 In the last inning it looked as if Bir- mingham would tie the score, but Clarke, after hitting a beautiful line drive into right field, was cut off at second retiring the side with two men on bases.
 How 1t Happened.
 Kelly, who was first up for Cincinnati. after taking two strikes landed on one of mt three men went out in rapid order, how ever, and both teams engaged in a game of see-saw for three innings. In the fourth Donlin, who was first up, hit a dinky down to third and a moment later stole second. Beckley followed with a clean single to center and Donlin scored. This was all that could be gotten off Smtty and at the end of the fifth inning he retired.
 He took his turn at the bat In the sixth, however, and before going to the bench leaned up against the ball and drove a scorcher between center and left for one bag. On an error of the first base man Leighton, who was running for Smitty made second. Duffy and Lawler struck out, but Leighton, who had to return to the bat Millerick taking his place on the bag, hit nice one into left scoring Millerick. This tied the score, and the fans were highly elated
 In the last half of the sixth the Reds again grew industrious, and on a hit by pitched ball and line drives by Donllr and Morrisey sent two more runs across the plate. In the next inning they added another on Lawler's error and Woods hit This gave them two runs to the good and 1t began to look gloomy for the Barons.

ls not education In the highest
and truest sense. Education ne
cessitates training in ways the
child will regard as urksome and
erroneous. 1t means change in
thought, in manner, in life; de-
velopment of mind, body and
heart. Growth and change are
always painful.
However, complaints and char
ges from the child should not be
disregarded. The child's side
should be heard by the parent,
and nine times out of ten the
honest parent can show the child
the wisdom of the teachers act.
In the tenth case the parent
should simply say 81 don't under
stand the matter, and | shall see
the teacher at once" If the par
ent will call on the teacher, state
frankly that the matter is not un-
derstood, the teacher can put it
IN the right light, or acknowledge
the mistake, and correct it with
the child. In this way the child
will be helped, and there will be
no break in the development.
The child should never hear
from the parent the slightest crit
lcism Of the teacher. The slight
est word spoken against the
teacher only Injuries the child
and retards development.
The relation then of teacher
and paront should be sympathet-
ic, frank and cordial. There
should be nothing of suspicion
and distvust.
1t Is a pitiable thing to hear
the parent. admit. that he or she
can do nothing with the child at

can't keep the child from wasting

this is often heard. Still such

PARENTS AND TEACHERS.

In few weeks the schools will
begin another years work. The
children will be called upon TO
give up part of their playtime !;
the teachers will put aside their
avocation and take up their voca
~tion; the parents will feel a
deeper responsibility.
During the past three months
the great majority Of teachers
have spent several weeks in pro-
fessional study, trying to prepare
themselves for better service dur
lug the coming term. They have
recalled some of the errors of last
year, and will try to avoid simi-
lar mistakes. Some parents have
thought seriously of the coming
years work, and have resolved to
steer clear Of such mistakes as
were made last year.
= Thus we find the teachers and
parents looking forward to the
years work with concern, and, at
times, with deep foreboding. In
terest in q common cause gives
Importance to the relations that
should exist between parents and
teachers.
DR.. Carlisle often says to the
young man who asks for his ad
vice on subject: Young man,
emember; there are three sides
to every question-your side, my
side, and the right side" 1t
would be we'll if parents aud
teachers could realize this great
truth. There is the parents side,
there is the teachers side; and,
too often, there is a third side
the right side.
There is one very common fact
often overlooked by parent and
teacher. Both forget that both
are interested in the child's well
fare and promotion. The teachers
success depends upon the child's
progress; not, of course, upon
every child's progression ones
reputation is determined largely
by ones best work, certainly not
by less than the average work.
Parents frequently believe, hon
estly so, that the teacher does not
wish TO see their children succeed
when sober thought would show
the absurditv of such an idea, for
the teachers happiness and JOY
comes from that source alone. 1t
ls strange that parents do not
recognize that fact.
Thus parents seemingly prefer
to question the motive of the
teacher, and to assume that his
action in gwen case Is from ul.
terror motives and not from an
honest desire to help the child.
There are some few facts that
parents might well consider. The
average school teacher is as hon
est as the average parent. The
average teacher is as truthful and
just as the average child. The
average teachers character and
integrity will compare favorably
with the character and integrity
of the average parent and of the
average child. The teacher might
we'll think of the converse of
these propositions.
Just as sure as the schools open
there will be little troubles and
Misunderstanding between the
pupils and teachers. If there are
