VET FIELD KEEPS
ATHLETICS AND
CLEVELAND IDLE
Mack and Fohl Inspect
Grounds and Then Decide
to Call Off Contest
INDIANS DIsGRUNTLED

The heavy rain o fast night and early
fEseay caused Managers Mack and FohI OF
The Athletics and Cleveland to decide to
postpone the pitching duel between Joe
Bush snd Guy Morton. There will be no
game this afternoon, but Mack and Fohl
announced today that their star hurlers
will stage their duel tomorrow.
Unless one or both of these young stars
e badly or form the fans should be treated
q enoher great pitching duel. such as the
Bush and Cicotte dash provided last Fri
| day. Bush was never in such good condl.
tion as at the present time, and his team
mates believe that he Is going to hang TN
long string of victories before he is
beaten, while the Indians are just as con.
adent that Morton Is unbeatable
No doubt large crowd will be on hand
As the sensational finish by the Maclkmen
yesterday caused the fans to forget the re-
sult Of the final game against the White
Box on Saturday. The Mackmen are now
gradually overhauling the Red Sox and
Yankees.
When the Indians came here they ex.
pected four straight victories or at least
three out of four. but judging by expires.
aious Of members of Fohl's team this morn.
Ing they will be we'll satisfied with two out
Of three. The Cleveland players admit being
9reatly surprised at the vicious attack and
fighting spirit Of the Mackmen, and believe
That Comics band is going to be dangerous
Before the season Is over.
Sunday afternoon Manager Mack re-
marked that Jimmy Walsh would not be
taken from the game when Rube OldrinR |
returned to left, stating that Walsh was
the most underrated player in the major
leagues. Connie insists that Walsh will star |
IL he gets a good break Yesterday Walsh |
looked better than at any time in his career /
snd the fans are reconciled to the benchIng
OF Stellbauer. Jimmy had home run and |
two singles, the homer scoring three runs
while his second single really started the
Mackmen on their way to victory.
Weldon wyckoff looks better every day
and he will be sent against the Indians to-
morrow. The sudden Improvement in wyclx-
OTIS condition may mean that Mack will |
have three star hurlers for the long West
ern trip. When right there are few better
pitchers than Wyckoff and two or three vic.
tories from him at this time should enable
the Mackmen to climb into the first division
before the Western trip starts
The fans are inclined to criticise Witt for
'rying to score on Smiths careless return
,tter helding Strunks long single, but Mack
Siares the youngster was correct. Harry |
Wis sent Witt home and it took perfect {
eay to catch him. Perfect plays are not
yften made when the opposing team Is
AIKEN by surprise, and the Indians surely | |
we're amazed when Witt dashed for the I
'late. Witt is fast and while some of his {
hances may go wrong now, 1t Is well to | {
ncourage him to move around lively on the /

Keep the head dow

keep the henH down,
This old axiom is what every golfer knows,
but there are plenty, even among the experts,
that are not able to concentrate on the shot
long enough to keep the head still.
1t Is really the fault of half the shots that
are fiubbed. If the head is not down, or kept
still. the eyes In said head are apt to flicker
and not keep beaded on the ball, or the
earth beneath 1t, Better keep still.
Instead of trying out series Of new Eripa
each day, II the golfer would take his head
few lessons In ''staying put" there would be
several absentees among the list of missed
shots every day.

OVERCOMING ILllTERACY.

Georgia has long been known of the backward in the of education While North Dakota spending s962 per capita in the support of public spending only $19S per capita Only three states paid less for educational purposes.
 And wasn't stinginess the part of Georgia's citizens. As the state superintendent of education ex- plains, it largely matter of principle Although nominally democratic education in this actually been that it better to educate few of to rule and manage the affairs of the many. To this hour it is practically impossible change the nborn and bred feeling of many old leaders this subject"
 But real democracy has triumphed. The majority of citizens have around to the view that it is the ,and that parent has right to refuse his child education So Georgia has enacted a compulsory school attendance law
 Having provided for the instruction of the children the state is turning to the problem of educating ilerate adults One white of every six cannot these says the state superintendent there is hope
 Tt has been shown by work in several counties" he says that the ordinary be taught to read write and do simple number work-enough- to re forever the stigma of iteracy-withn the space of five or six weeks even if there is not more than an hour two of training each day"

ABUSING PROSPERITY.

Never has American labor made so much progress toward high and short hours in this time An industrial commission that in New York state the number of engaged in gainul occupations has increased 25 cent and the disbursements have increased 40 National labor organizations estimate that workers numbering nearly 60O0,000 have received increases aggregatng OOOOO0 Others put the figure still higher
 Now what are the employees doing with these added millons Much of their added is doubt wisely pay old debts to buy necessaries deserved comforts formerly unobtanabe purchase property and put away savings. But there is evidence that good many workers their families negecting their op portunity to get ahead.
 The federal agent in big iron district re- ported recently:
 "Workmen are reducing the weeks work to four or five days Absences being taken when desired, regardless of on production In the face of higher wage and a shorter day. workmen seemingly average the previous of wage" There is testimony the effect in many manufacturing districts. And men who are working hard and therefore making consid- enbly money, said be spending their earn ngs if they expected the present prosperity to be everlasting
 The corporations are not so Shorsghed IL Is pointed that fifty manufacturing holding of their profts against rainy day a volume of cash equal the total of the increases granted all the wormen in the country. Thus hard times ensue the employers will be to their employees. t4' i.t.t.f
 It be argued that it's easier the capitalists to put away surplus because they're making than labor in spite of the big advances But the question is, the laboring saving what they can? They have the best chance they put themselves beyond the fear of future want

FEED THE BOY.

How that boy does eat!"
 We'll why not? There are perfectly good scientific reasons for it. No matter how much eats, he prob Journal of the American Medical Association reporting experiments recently made in food laboratory de that growing boy of school age requires 50 per more food than hard-working adult farmer. And the growing school girl needs nearly as much
 Have you seen rdworking adult farmer eat? Jimmy Willy ought by rights, to eat half much again if he's to thrive grow Nature intended him And don't begrudge him the grub at him with dsapproval when he comes home from school and pro ceeds eat his way through a small mountain of pro- vender.

 iron and steel industry.
 We know that on account of the European war the exports of iron and steel jumped in a year from $51 1,000,- 900 to over s621 ,OOO, ,OOO an increase of two and half times because of the great demand created by the Euro ; pean war. That demand was caused in very large part by the needs of munitions; it also was caused in very large part by the fact that men on the other side were taken away from their pursuits and productive activities and were put in the trenches to fight.
 Now, when that demand for war materials ends, when the war orders come to an end under our present policy, as embodied in the Under wood tariff passed by our opponents, you can see yourself going back to work for one or two or three days a week.
 This is a severely practical propo- sition. We know what happened to us twenty months ago. There are some who say, Why, America is ready" Look at great, strong Ameri- ca. Can America stand anything? We'll, America was just as strong and just as great 20 months ago as it is today. They say, well, look at the men in America. Can't they do any thing? I reply, well. the men in Am erica were just as great 20 months ago as they are today.
 You've got to have something be- sides this greatness that we talk about in such eloquent phrases and you have got to have something more than these alert and splendid men. You have got to have business poli- cies that protect the industries of the United States.
 Tt is perfectly absurd thing that any intelligent man should stand be- fore the American community and talk about tariff for revenue only. You cannot run the United States in that way The nations on the other side are learning the necessity of protecting their interests. Even Great Britain. who, on account of her special conditions, favored the free trade policy so long, has come to a protective policy.
 And what will you see when this war is over? In the first place. you will find that nations over there have
