WEDNESDAY. JULY 1909

Childhood is the period of lifes great
est enjoyment, and he who would de-
tract jot from the pleasure of it is
''fit for treason and spoils." The
sending of her little boy or girl to
school at the age of six or seven years
is tragedy to mother. Then, for
the first time in the career of the
child, he is made to realize that he
has life's duties to perform. A mere
babe, he goes forth to learn the first
lesson concerning the great world
about him.
But still, while in school, the re-
sponsibility for his maintenance is
generally unknown to the child whose
lot is happily cast. But we must re-
member and commiserate the cases
of the others. unfortunately so many,
whose lives are shorn of the oppor-
tunity for more than a rudimentary
education and who are forced in theiI
infant years to 60 forth and battle for
the bread they eat.
We talk of the tragedy of old age,
or poverty, but there is greater
the tragedy of youth that is filled with
labor for existence. 1t is unex-
pressible TO think for a moment of the
lives of little ones wasted that scme,
great institution or some immense en-
terprise may 90 forward and reap
financial reward at the expense of
suffering children.
Children's lives and happiness ar,
something. A child should be as free
as the young colt in pasture to play
without interruption upon his chosen
fields and never until he attains tn,
age when manhood approaches,
should he be compelled to begin tn,
grind that must be his. if he is of the
average, until death releases him.
Not, understand, that toll in it.
self is deplorable thing. Without
it man would be in the monkey stage
Of existence Toll is pleasure to the
mature person who likes his work
but toll should have no place in the
early child lite. That should BE-
filled with song. laughter, play ant
the Joy of living. Then. when matur,
years come on, work should be one,
play and the pleasure that the grow
ing child found in idle rompine
should become the pleasure that one
takes in bis chosen vocation. But
let us keep the children happy, I'm
worried and care-free as long as W,
may. They are only children for
short time-too short time. We
should have stringent laws for the
protection of childhood against the
crushing force of greed, and then we
should enforce those laws TO the end
that in our own final years it may not
be said of us, Eyes, he made money,
but at the cost of crushed child-life

time, and Creager was called on to DO
the hero act and win the game. He
did his part we'll AMI stopped the on
slaught. Mccormick was pitching for
the Colts and he went along very nice
ly until the seventh. Upto that time
our boys had scored only oneru and
it looked like the lead of 6 tol was
enough to win the game. but the To-
Gals got two runs in the seventh and
in the eighth snch a cracking OF bats
was never heard. Mccormick was sent
to the bench and Stultz sent in but 1t
was all the same and before the side
could be retired seven runs had been
scored. The game ended with the
score 10 to 6.

Take Third Also.

The Pioneers made three straights
from Lexington when they won again
Saturday by the score OF 3to /. This
was another good game, all OF the
scores being earned by good and time
ly hitting. Comstock was sent In
,gain to try and get even for his Wild
ness the day before. He was on his
good behavior and, but for lrcky
home run by Hall, would have gotten
away with shut-ont. Stultz pitched
for the Colts, and altho he was hit
rather freely no runs we're scored
except in the fifth when a single by
Baird three-bagger by Whitaker,
single by Dawson and a three-bai :
ger by Wombel scored three runs.

1t was hard game to loses especially
as it was lost by bad umpiring by one
Of our own men. Wills pitched foi
Richmond and with man on second
md third he cut loose with wild
pitch which hit BohannOn on the
sleeve, but Creager, who was calling
balls and strikes, failed o.see that i,
nit the batter and called 1t bail, the
two runners coming home. This
really lost the game for Richmond
for Wills held the Lawmakers to four
nits. "Rasty" Wright was the lucky
pitcher for Frankfort.
