r EFT US have it understood that
William Andrew Smith, mana
ger of the Atlanta ball club,
has nothing whatever to do with the
following meager lunches. Let is
also be understood that President
Galloway likewise is guiltless, and the
directors.
This is merely a personal line or
dope, compiled in an afternoon which
doubtless would be better employed
scoring a practice game, only no
practice game is being played.
So here's an idea or two about the
1914 Crackers, based on the very
small and probably useless indica-
tions Of couple of exhibition games
with a presumably stronger club.
LUNCH No. Third base and
1 l shortstop are the two softest 10
cations in the Cracker lineup.
No. 2-Five left-handed hitters in
the regular batting array ordinarily
is too much-unless the manager is
sweet on forl1-hand batters. 1t may
be too many even then.
No. 3-That makes Kircher's
chances for a job look better-to us
anyway
No. 4-The pitchers look like
good bet. with the outfield close
second, or maybe first.
EVERTING to No. /, We will ad-
IN nit freely that the dope framed
in a pair of practice games ism
worth much. But it looks as II we
had copied couple Of good second
string catchers, without landing any
thing of Chapman's caliber. Munch
has a good. clean style. and ought TO
develop. Maybe he'll do that in the
next week or ten days-that Is, may
be, he will uncoil little more,
The way third base looks just at
present, there will be a red-headed
1rishman making a start at that bag
and doing his durndest to make good
with fair chance. Also, he will
have to scuffle around bit
CONCERNING Nos. 2 and 3, we
- lamp the following regulars bat
ting left handed in the present ten
tative lineup: Mcconnell. Welchonce,
Flanagan, Eible and Lynch. Five.
Granted that they stick, that's a good
many. With G. Price pitching, we'd
have six port -siders And, according
to accepted dope, every club in the
league would save up its left flanders
TO work as many games as possible
against the Crackers
That might be very very sad. or
ii might not. Sometimes a left-hand
hitter is more effective against a
left-hand pitcher than against the
opposite. II. Welchonce was that
way last ason, or nearly so But IL
is the exception. and Harry will nat
urally hit any OF 'em.
GO we reach Mr. Kircher. This lad
- is rather an odd citizen He is of
moderate size. very fast on his feet,
and plays pretty well in every posi-
ton on ball club except pitcher.
He has been a regular catcher. More
regularly, he has played the outfield.
He hits right handed, and swings well
into the ball. His extra base wallOp

DrOuth Conditions
Relieved By Rain

This section was visited by a
good rain Sunday and this morn
ing another heavy rain fell to
bless the farmers Of this section.
This is the first good rain in a
month and the crops began to
need it very bad. 1t is hard to
estimate the great good it has
done to growing crops. Our bust
nessmen as well as the farmers
are wearing the'smile that won't
come off" today and are rejoicing
over the certainty of a bumper
crop of cotton as well as corn in
Ben Hill as we'll as near by counties
The crops have never been so far
advanced at this season of the year
and the farmers all over this section
had their fields in fine condition to
get the full benefit of the moisture.
The outlook for bushes this fall is
flattering and nothing short of an
earthquake can keep this section
from the full dinner pail this fall.

A Test Of Your Capacity

Atlanta, June L. Gentle reader
are you a Moron? Don't answer nc
Indignantly or hastily, for maybe
you are. First read this over quiet
ly: "A little dog ran up the street.
1t had brown, curly hair, short legs
and long TAIL" Now lay down the
paper and repeat it aloud.
If you said it right, all we'll enough,
but if you said it wrong, you are a
Moron, and their is no use f,lssing
about it. 1t is a new test made by
the psychologists. If you said the
dog had curly legs and brown tail
you are fifty per cent off in mental
efficiency, according to the experts.
Try another test. Point to your
nose, then your eyes, then your ears,
then your mouth. Do it quickly. If
you stuck your fingers in your
mouth the first jab, you lose anoth-
er fifty per cent in the grading.
A last chance: what is wrong
with this sentence? Il have three
brothers, Ignatz, Abraham and my
SELF" If you answer quick right off
the bat, you are safe, but if you
have to stop and figure it out you
ere a Moron.

"Haye you any objection to

date for governor or for the long

"Well, now," he said, "you see

what | may DO about either Of
those positions, hence | see no
need for crossing either of these
bridges yet"
