FRANK DELEHANTY
LEADS IN BATTING,

Down the line of tradition another IA

AFTER all there is something in a name
and a family tree. The family tree of the
Delehantys of Cleveland must have been
an ash or hickory. the wood from which
bludgeons are carved.
From a fair hitter and always reliable
athlete in days gone before young Frank
Delehanty has taken his place at last
where his brothers have always held
forth before him. The famous Ed uyas
the premier of the majors for many years
and LaJoles greatest rival in the realm
OF DIN. Death put an end to his glory
but the SHOWS of just winter had
hardly melted from his grave when Jim
another brother. started on the Journey
through Swatville that led him to the top
OF Dlxies sluggers, the premier batsman
IN sunland that year-1oO3. And now. in
1909. the name of Delehanty seems once
again destined toz-blaZe cut at the top of
struggling contestants Young Frank is
now an even 20 points in advance of any
into an unexpected slump he will be lead
ing all rivals when the campaign reaches
it's September finish.
His work all the season in a Birming-
ham regalia has been the most consistent
in the league. He has hit steadily and
timely to boot. There is nothing of the
flare up and die out qualities banked
around his batting that often mark the
batsmen in minor company. Three hun
dred per cent has been his mark all the
year. and he hasn't fallen far below or
risen much above this mark since April
although of late he has begun to forge
steadily away from his closest rival.
There Is now a fine chance that he will
finish the season as a member of Clark
Griffith's Highlanders. Griffith has been
after him. and Vaughn is willing to give
his Woodworking athlete a trial in faster
company. If any performer in Dixie
makes good IA major try-out this season
Delehanty should be the one without
doubt.

THE BLESSING OF CHILDREN.

Mrs Arthur NJ Dodge president Of
the New York Federation Of Day
Nurseries. addressed the Eastern Pub
lie Educational association the other
day in Richmond, Va and in the
course of her address declared that
''the absolute capacity of a woman for
taking care of babies is eight, and she
ought never to have more than six"
While the declaration is a little OBJ
scure i'm that it might be accepted as
an attack on the RooseveItian theory
OF wholesale Child-bearinE. it comes
from woman who has had exceptional
opportunities for observation in the
day nurseries Of a great city. Probably
Mrs Dodge is right so far as her state
ment applies to the classes who patron
ize day nurseries and are not usually
the most thrifty of mothers nor able to
employ. help in their domestic affairs.
But if she meant to generaIize and limit
all families to six children there is
room for debate.
Unfortunately. the people who are best
able in a worldly sense to support large
AdillllSS " tiut tlitiL hDllSlulltIeS ana
are so occupied with material things
that the care of children is too often
regarded as an unwelcome burden
rather than the great blessing it should
be 10 any father and mother. The
proper care of a family involves self
sacrifice. anxieties, denial of personal
comfort and sometimes privation. and
too many fathers and mothers prefer
their own selfish pleasures to the higher
duties of fatherhood and maternity
with the compromising happiness and
enjoyment that come with the larger
families.
With the discussion of the subject
there is apparently a swing of the pen
dulum away from the selfish view and
toward a realization of the fact that
the man and woman who deny them
selves that they may rear a large fam
lily rightly have their reward many
times over in the waning years Of life
when the sunshine of boys and girls in
the home is wen worth all It has cost,
and more.

MOTOR CAR TRANSPORTATION.

city transportation experts on both
sides of the Atlantic are deep in a dis
eussion that has been brought about
by the high development of motor ears
during the past few years. Some OF
the more enthusiastic advocates of the
motors go so far as to predict that the
time is not far distant when the trolley

PRESBYTERIAN UNION.

One Of the marked tendencies of the
times is the desire among churches of
similar faith. though differing creeds
to reach some plane Of union on which
all may stand without sacrifice Of vital
convictions. An instance in point is the
coming general conference Of the Cum
berland Presbyterian church at Fresno.
number Of whose delegates spent the
day IN Salt Lake yesterday.
Originally. the founders Of the Cum
berland church were Scotch-Irish Pres
byterians of eastern Kentucky and
Tennessee Living in what was then a
mountain Wilderness they founded a
branch OF the Presbyterian church.
which had as its basic article of faith
and daily practice an earnest desire for
the conversion Of sinners, allied with
primitive faith in the efficacy of prayer.
They held the first camp meeting ever
organized and grew rapidly in numbers
and strength Needing pastors. they
ordained them from the ranks Of their
congregations without requiring the
theological education and examination
demanded by the canons of Presbyte-
rian government, and they accepted the
covenant Of faith with a reservation
which excluded the doctrine OF fatality.
Eventually the presbytery which had
taken these steps was dissolved and
the new church was reorganized as the
Cumberland Presbytery in Dickson
county, Tennessee, on Feb. T. 1910.
The only two radical differences in
church government between the old
and the new church were the educf-
tional requirements of ministers and
the doctrine Of fatality. With the
growth of years and the modification
of creeds, these differences have been
practically wiped out, and the majority
of leaders in both churches have be

faith should be followed by a union Of
