WHERE THE SOUTH LOST.
Two or Three Ways by Which
N ew England Forged Ahead
of Us.

New england was wise enough to
see that buying negroes to do poor
work did not pay, and that educating
her own children to do good work did
nav. The South has fallen behind be-
cause it has had the wrong end of both
these propositions. Thank God, how
ever. we are at last waking up and are
beginning to train our own people, and
we shall soon begin to give our South
ern children the same educational adj
vantages that the New England child
rem have had, and so have our agricul-
tural and manufacturing development
such as will make ms worthy rivals of
New Egland, even in material prosper
ity.
Just in this connection, moreover, l
am reminded that while New England
has been far too wise to allow her
children to be worked in cotton mills,
or any other manufacturing enterprise
es, thousands of our own white child
rem have been stunted in body and
mind in order to make dividends for
New England capital invested in the
South. In Massachusetts no child I'M
der fourteen is allowed to work in a
factory under any circumstances what
ever; no child under, OF between four
teen and sixteen, unless able to read
and write, and not only to read and
write, but to read and write we'll en-
ough to enter the fourth grade, and
no child is allowed to do night work
under any circumstances. More than
this, no child can be employed by any
factory unless sworn certificate as to
its age be given by its parents. and
this certificate approved as correct by
the local school committee or their a.
gent, and kept on file for inspection by
truant officers whose duty it is to see
that all children who ought to be are
in school,. Going further, the manu-
facturer must keep posted, a list of the
names of all minors employed by him,
and the State employs fourteen factory
inspei 4 rs, a part of whose duties it is
to see ts..t these laws are enforced.
Massachusetts is far too wise to sac
rifce her future by grinding out the
lives of little children, however much
the Yankee may be said to care for
the dollar 1t is With shame that we
confess that the same cannot be said of
every Southern State. Clarence Poe,

BUILD THAT CEMETERY FENCE.

There is steady effort being made
to secure funds to enclose Owen Gene
terry with good stout wire fence to
keep hogs from roofing among the
graves, and horses and cattle from
trampling on them. A fund was
started last year by Bro. Dew, which
amounted to $7.75, but Mr.. Burnett
took out his donation of $3.50, and
Mr.. Byrd his donation of ST. 90, which
reduced it to 81. %, at which it stood
until Monday when Mr.. Walter Park
ar. of Sewanee, contributed $500,
which makes the fund in the hands OF
Mai. T. FL. Hill 1925. Besides this
Mr.. W. S. Pryor raised from an en-
tertainment about $15. 90 for the pur-
pose, which he has in his possession.
Austin Coppinger, we understand, has
promised to furnish and deliver cedar
posts and Mr.. W. M. Lee has volun-
teered to do the necessary work OF
erecting fence. Other citizens have
pledged amounts aggregating about
S.. 90 to Mr.. d. Hopkins who will al
SO contribute, as well as others.
Now is the time to fence that grave
yard, as sufficient funds are now in
sight, in our estimation to complete
the job. All that is necessary now is
for the parties interested to get togeth-
rer some night at the Town Hall, and
appoint a committee to take the mat
ter in charge and push the work to
completion. We do not wish to usurp
any possible honor that may come to
anyone from assuming the leadership
in so praiseworthy an object, or we
would set date for such a meeting in
this paragraph.

Our account of the Republican Con-
vention at Nashville is taken princi-
pally from the columns of the Chatta
nooga Times, which makes prominent
the defeat of the candidacy of A. A.
Taylor. The Tennessean does not
make this feature quite SO prominent,
and hence there is question ON what
ground did the Times correspondent
base his report that the Patterson fol-
lowers were behind the Taylor move
ment, as one would think from read
ing the report.

The republicans have formulated a
mighty strong platform, the exact
wording of which is printed in this is
sue. The independent voters now
have ample chance to turn from Pat

from which every sane man should
turn with adherence, and fear. Nom

LEG A MASS OF HUMOR
Henpeck (absently)-Hot water

about seven years ago a small
abrasion appeared on my right leg
Just above my ankle. 1t irritated me
so that I began to scratch it, and 1t
began to spread until my leg from my
ankle to the knee was one solid scale
like scab. The irritation was always
worse at night and would not allow
me to sleep, or my wife either, and It
was completely undermining our
health. lost fifty pounds In weight
and was almost out OF my mind with
pain and chagrin as no matter where
the irritation came, at work, on the
street or in the presence Of company,
l would have to scratch 1t until | had
the blood running down into my shoe.
l simply cannot describe my suffer
Ing during those seven years. The
pain, modification, loss Of sleep, both
to myself and wife is simply inde-
scribable on paper and one has to ex
perience 1t to know what it is.
II tried all kinds OF doctors and rem
edies but l might as well have thrown
my money down sewer. They would
dry up for little while and fill me
with hope only to break out again just
as bad If not worse. | had given up
hope Of ever being cured when | was
induced by my wife to give the Cuti-
cura Remedies a trial. After taking
the Cuticura Remedies for a little
while l began to see a change, and
after taking a dozen bottles of Cuti-
cura Resolvent In conjunction with
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment, the trouble had entirely disap-
peared and my leg was as fine as the
day l was born. Now after lapse of
six months with no signs OF recur-
renee l feel perfectly safe In extend
Ing to you my heartfelt thanks for the
good the Cuticura Remedies have done

Ike to ask II you would expect bat
.er maker in a whole milk creamery
20 produce a high class article if he
lid not keep his machine in sanitary
condition. 1t is my belief that much
improvement may be made in quality
by better care Of the cream after it
S separated. In talking with gov
ernment expert who makes Chicago
his headquarters, he asked If | were
aware OF the fact that there were a
large number of hand separator cream
creameries in western Wisconsin along
the river that were turning out just
as good an article of butter as were
the whole milk creameries in eastern
Wisconsin. | asked him how he ac-
counted for this. His answer was,
that in the hilly country along the riv-
er springs We're numerous and that
the cream can was set into the spring
and cooled down and then not mixed
with the next skimm!ng until that had
been treated in the same way Springs
are not numerous enough with US in
Iowa to adopt this plan, but we have
found the following most satisfactory
at Home farm and have used it
for several years with good results
We hope we may make ourselves un-
derstood from the description and the
cut.
We have galvanized iron tank in
our cream house near the we'll with a
pipe connecting from we'll to this tank
at the top in the cream house. In
one side of the tank we make a hole
for piece Of gas pipe using a couple
Of lock nuts one on the inside, the
other on the outside to keep from leak
ing. On the inner end of this outlet
which connects with the water tank
for cattle, we use an elbow with a
piece of gas pipe about 16 inches
long turned down so that the circu-
lation is good in this tank, the water
going in at the top and out at the
bottom. All the water for cattle must
pass around the cream where the
cream can Is set as soon as we have
finished separating. If you don't care
to go to the expense of buying a gal
vanized iron tank only having a small
amount of cream, buy a barrel and
saw it in two as this will hold two
or three shot gun cans of cream and
will be better than nothing. In case
the wind does not blow to make the
windmill do the work of pumping, we
use our gasoline engine which is at
tached to the pump. Before we put in
the engine we pumped enough by hand
twice or three times per day to change
the temperature in the tank.

STUDY WEAK POINTS
OF OPfO ,EHG PITCHER
RO6ERT WALLACE, THIRD BASE
MAN OF ST. LOUIS BROWNS,
SAYS FIRST STUDY WEAK
POINTS OF TWiRLER OF
OTHER TEAM.
BY ROBERT WALLACE.

Copyright 1910, by Joseph B. Bowles.)
Working together for one run at a
time, and hitting at the weak points
in the opposing team is my idea OF
how to win baseball games. To me a
baseball game is just like battle.
The effort should be to attempt to
break the delenses some place, and
then attack that broken spot. The
easiest point to attack, of course, is
the pitcher and every effort OF a
team should be concentrated to
weaken the pitcher.
knowledge of a pitcher, whether he
is wild, whether he has goOd control,
whether he fields bunts well, is es
sential before game is started and
the attack should be directed at the
weak spot. Run bases on pitchers
who do not watch the bases care
fully, outguess the slow thinking
pitchers, and bunt on the bad tielders.
| believe in playing hard for one run
early in the game, for the hrst run
handicaps the other team and forces
them to hit The first run | think is
almost half the game, and one run
in the first inning usually is worth
three later in the game.
1t is nearly all study of individ-
uals, and experience helps lot. AS
to third base, it is one of the most
difficult positions in the field to play,
and when the other team is at bat
third baseman is forced to do lot OF
thinking or he will lose the game.
With runners on bases the chief at
tack by the bunting plan is directed
at third base and the baseman, play
ing less than so, often only IS feet
from the batter, is in a tickiish posi-
ton. He must decide whether a GER
tain batter will bunt, or whether he
will try to draw the baseman forward
by pretending to bunt and then push
the ball hard past him. If he decides
wrong his chances of fielding a hard
pushed ball while he is running for
ward, are slim. If he gets the ball it
is because he is lucky enough to have
it hit straight at him because while
coming forward he is unable to change
direction or to stop in time to field
such a hit A wrong guess with men
on first and second usually means the
loss of the game.
l know through experience what al
most every batter is likely to do, but
in baseball there is nothing quite SO
dangerous as thinking you know what
a man will do because he has done

manly forms, which is entirely unnec-
essary. To be sure, fan who is not
personally familiar with all the ath-
letes sometimes has to ask his neigh
Dor the identity of certain players, but
that, is small matter.
With jockeys and bicycle riders the
case is very different. The former ride

true of bicycle riders. But the ball
player Is different His calling Is a
higher one than either of the others.
His personality is more evident to the
spectators than that Of the jockey or a
man bumped over a machine. He is
an individual, not a piece of machin-
cry. He Is not a driver of a horse or
OF an automobile, but an artist in his
way. 1t would be as foolish to com.
pei him to wear huge disfguring
number on his back as 1t would be to
inf1ict the same necessity upon a star

1t doesn't hurt anyone to ask his
neighbor question as to a player or
two. II he Is watching a game in a
foreign city, where he Is not familiar
with all the athletes.
