At the outset it looked as if Iceman
Durham was in for slamming, but the

In the second frame koeStner was
safe on an infield hit Mohler pegged
to catch him at first, but the ball went
wild and Koestner pulled up at sec.

ner to third. Daley stole second and
Berry pegged to catch him. and on the
throw down koestner sprinted home

fourth frame by getting three runs on

cues by the enemy. Williams again

velt's fight for the family. And, be it
remembered, that fight is not only for
the perpetuation of the American race,
but for the training of the boys and
girls of the republic. They must have
square deal Their youth must not
be sacrificed to business interests" 4"
Commercialism will never replace school
training. An uneducated nation is an
undisciplined nation. The existence of
the republic to great extent depends
on the thorough education of all its
sons and daughters. The old poet
wrote:
Ill fares the land, to Fastening ills prey
Where wealth accumulates and men decay
and this is what Prof. McKeever has to
say on the subject in a bulletin pre-
pared and circulated by him:
"Drouths and deluges may destroy
our growing crops, disease and degen-
Grafton may play havoc among our
cattle on a thousand hills and our
treasured porkers in the alfalfa fields.
These calamities might come upon us,
and yet our glory not be dimmed, pro-
vided only that our growing boys sand
girls be so trained and safeguarded in
the home, so educated in the school,
the church and other institutions of
the country that they will develop into
well-rounded, magnificent specimens Of
manhood and womanhood. 1t is much
to be regretted that we do not give its
Just measure of honor and praise to
exalted home life. There is certainly
need of a great poet or painter or
artist, or all of these, who will by
means of their high art divert the at
tention Of many young people from the
airy phantoms they are now chasing
and help them to fix their affections
upon the things that make for more
substantial character"
Prof. McKeever accuses parents of
neglecting to fit themselves for the task
of training children. He says: 1--WE
have special courses in poultrying, in
pig raising and horse breeding, while
parents go right on in the old way
rearing children by guess, hearsay and
superstition"
Is there not great deal of truth in
the structures of the learned pro-
fessor?
In the United States we MUST begin
to pay more attention to PEOPLE and
less to profits. What shall it profit a
nation If it gain the whole world and
lose its own national identity?

RECKLESSNESS

WI HY can't the people of South CAL
wv ifornia make up their minds
to stop automobile accidents?
Hardly any automobile smash can be
blamed en- the outsider-that is to say,
in almost every instance the man who
was running the automobile has been
at fault. He has been fiurried. He
has been nervous. Or he has been a
speed maniac. Almost every automo-
bile accident that has happened could
have been prevented by the exercise Of
prudence or of common sense.
For instance. deplorable as were the
consequences of the collision at Hunt
ington drive crossing, is it not equally
deplorable. is it not lamentable, that
human life should have been imperiled
and grievous injuries sustained be-
cause the unfortunate driver, who was
we'll aware of the proximity of a big
trolley car going at high rate of
speed, THOUGHT he could cross in
safety in front of the car and took a
risk?
II he had tarried for minute and
allowed the car to have the right of
way all would have been well. But
the speed imp prompted him to make
a wild and hazardous and unnecessary
dash across the car track; and in the
most natural and expectable manner
disaster. followed.
