A TEAM
LOOKS BEST BET
ParkviewS Hardly Figure to
Win Final Clash in
Amateur Series.

II you are going to get Town a bet
on the playoR between the winner in
Section A and B in the amateur cham
pionship series, bet Section A straight
through. Such seems to be h dope.
Agriculture or Brentwood will win
the penhhant in the first set, and CON-
Pared with either Of these teams Park
view, which seems the logical winner
in Section B.. should stand a very slim
chance
The Parkview aggregation In the post
season series has been a great surprise,
and the Suburban leaguers have Ger
tainly forged to the front By dint OF
good hard consistent work. In the
majority Of the games. they have won
by superior batting, although the per
Torrance Of Bernie Gallagher in the
box has also been a material aid 10
the present leaders in the Section B
class. These two ~ature have been
responsible for the showing Of the sub
urbanites for. at their best, they are
cratic feeders and offer little or no
comparison with the favorites Of Sec
ton A along this line
Pitted against either Agriculture or
Brentwood. Parkview snouId n an en-
tireIy different proposition from any
mat mas DGGD presenter II AnE SECLAoA
B series. While several very good
pitching duels have resulted in the Sec
ton B anne this season. the pitchers
in that class do not come Up to the
standard Of those working for the
leaders in the senior class. Gray, Bal
ger, and Busher. for Brentwood, and
Sanders n Newberry, for Agriculture,
are undoubtedly the best amateur ding
ers in the city, and the records of these
men would indicate that ParkvieW's
chances Of winning by heavy stickwork
viii be much lessened when opposed by
any Of this quintet.
Bernie Gallagher, VINO has worked IN
the majority Of the anne for the Park
view team. IS a good pitcher, and, as
far as this phase OF the comparison
Is concerned, the Suburban League
champions are or an even footing with
either Of the section A favorites. In
fielding, Parkview does not toe up with
Agriculture or Brentwood.
An Ofttime published statement that
ball games on paper amount to little
or nothing has in many instances been
verified by the actual test. but even
a casual comparison OF the three teams.
man for man, and team for team. un-
dOubtedly shows Parkview TO be the
weakest OF the trio.

most strenuous OF his trips was a run
from Philadelphia to Pittsburg through
the great storm usually known as the
Inauguration Day blizzard of March
f. 1903.
Mr.. Walker at that time had received
a wireless message from Pittsbu-g re-
curing his immediate presence in that
city. Railroad rains were all stalled.
wires were down and the only possible
way left him for getting to his destina-
ton was by automobile.
In his trip the qualities of both driver
and machine were tried 20 the utmost.
but he got safely through the storm
area, making railroad connections at

In matter OF attendance the present
series has been the worst ever.
After supplying the best amateur ball
that has been seen on local sandlots
for many years back, IL was a big die
appointment to the mage and play
ers alike. that because a very reason
able admission price was asked, the
majority of those who followed rhe
amateur games throughout the season
would not give their patronage 10 the
contests, the gate receipts from which
are the only reward the players get for
their seasons work on the various
lea diamonds.

In doping out the contest many fans
compared The playing Of the two teams
in the second game of the present
series At best, that game offered a
bad tip on the relative merits Of the
clubs. While neither played up TO its
wonted form they met the first
time, Agriculture was the farther of
color and showed probably the worst
game IL has played this year. Stung
by that one defeat. the Farmers i'm
mediately realized the causes. and their
remaining games have been marked BY
a complete form reversal.

Team Plays Great Ball When
There Is No Chance
to Win.
WHY DO WHITE SOX
MAKE BAD SHOWING?
That Question Should Be Answered
Before Roasting Washing
ton Club.
By HoMAs s. RICE.

When you come to analyze il, the
playing Of the Washington team In Chi
cago yesterday. when It was beaten
! to 0, was good. Walter Johnson had
one feeble inning. when he was reached
for enough hits 20 make II run and.
after he retired, Charley Smith pitched
almost perfect ball. The answer was
that Washington could get only two
hits OF Ed Walsh, and never had d
chance. The question is: Why IS it
that a team win play almost perfectly
when it is not hitting, and then get INFO
a game against a pitcher it can reach
with ease and field like a lot OF SUP
stitutes at a brewery picnic? h lack
of consistency is the most m~addening
thing about Ca%ntiIlon's mel n the
more a fan tanks OF it the more he is
up a stump trying to explain it.
The Washington times., 1909-08-30

Chicago put 1t all over Washington,
but II might be well TO remember in dis
cussing the managerial proposition. here,
wha position the White Sox hold in the
American League race at present. They
have won exactly half their games. They
have as president OF the club one Of
the brainiest men the game has ever
produced They have as manager an
unusually brilliant catcher who ave ev-
cry indication OF being a born leader.
They had an esprit de corps, which IS
going some. They had a we'll developed
system OF play n a pitching staff that
was a terror. Who is responsible for
the fact with all these brains at their
command the White Sox have been a
cruel disappointment and do not give
hope of doing better? Sure. the players
are not there TO deliver the goods. al
though Comiskey has practically an IN
limited amount Of money for the pur-
chase of new talent. Then what's the
answer Is il because Comiskey and
Sullivan abuse their men, or give too
many orders from the bench, or do not
know how to land promising youngsters?
We are not offering this as a brief for
CaQtillon, who has been a bigger disap-
pointment than the Chicago club, but IL

Probably the fondest man in the world
OF his own voice is Charley Murphy,
president OF the Chicago Cubs. He talks

naturally talks much fo~olishness. but

right. II IS a dead moral certainty

SAYS YOUNG HOTEL IS
WORTHY Of NEW YORK

San Francisco Daily Commercial
H. Hill, San Francisco manager for
the Bird-Archer Co. of New York. re-
turned recently from trip to Hawaii
and the Orient, visiting the principal
commercial cities and combining bus
mess with pleasure. He established a
branch at Honolulu, which will be
under the control of the San Francisco
Office. there being good opportunities
for business in connection with the
sugar plantations.
Mr.. Hill took his auto with him. and
he found the roads about Honolulu in
fine condition and disposed of his ma
chine there. He arrived in time to
see the first sugar mill commence grind
ing for the season, and was favorably
impressed with the appearance of Ho-
nolulu. 1.-The Young Hotel,'' he saws,
"is fine enough for New York; in fact,
most of the prominent hotels there are
owned by one corporation. The pine
apple industry is receiving considera-
BILE attention, the product being of fine
quality and is canned to quite an ex-
tent, although the problem facing those
interested is to find ready market.

DECAY OF THE TEETH.

Of all physical ailments to which the
human race is subject decay of the
teeth is perhaps the most general and
widespread. This is true at least of
modern times, for examination of an.
clent skulls has shown that although
the ancients suffered from decaying
teeth they did not suffer to such an ex-
tent as we do today. The examination
of the school children of the present
day betrays an appalling state of af-
fairs in this regard.
We know that the tooth itself is
covered with a shield of enamel, which
is intended to remain intact and pre-
serve the dentine or real tooth material
from the assaults of harmful germs
formed in the mouth, principally by
reason of the Judgment of particles of
food between the teeth or in small de-
pressions and dents. Certain kinds Of
food, especially sugars and starchy
foods, if allowed to remain in contact
with the teeth set up an acid fermenta-
.tion, during which the bacteria which
are produced literally feed upon the
teeth, first eating away the enamel and
when that is gone burrowing down into
the dentine until the pulp of the tooth
is exposed. As soon as they reach the
nerve of the tooth a terrible tootache
announces the fact.
There are three causes behind all this
trouble-improper food, wrong ways of
eating and lack of cleanliness. The
mistake of serving too much overlook
ed soft food is responsible for much Of
the trouble, and this is just as true for
little children as it is for adults The
70 HI nd
to chew with, and if they are defraud-
ed of their natural work they become
Iunhealthy.
In addition to this, certain articles
of food, such as raw apples and nuts.
which call for mastication before swat,
lowing, are absolutely cleansing in
their effect upon the teeth. Mechani-
cally they remove masses of soft de-
| composing material. Besides this,
| masticating promotes the flow of sal
| iva, which in its turn helps the growth
Eof the good germs which are needed to
| fight the bad ones, for it should be

mouth is always full of bacteria that
| the good germs are making a brave
fight there as well as everywhere else

| Finally tooth brush should be the

| and persistent use should be made "a

| early training. A simple alkaline
| tooth wash or cream should be used
once day, and the dentist should be
consulted at regular intervals, because
there is no matter in which prevention
is so surely better than cure as in the
care of the teeth.-Youth IS Companion.
