Bv selling Iris Speaker, Pres. Lannin

Ii has provided financial benefits Tor all

especially for Cleveland.
There will be no city series between
the Yankees and the Giants, as both
Pres. Hampstead and McGraw are OPP
posed to it on the ground that there is
no popular clamor for such meeting.
Among the delighted fans who cheered
the Giants when they made their new
worlds record for consecutive victories
were many old timers who played in the
National league when Providence won ~
straight games in 1884. Arthur A. lr-

Ward. who played second base for the
Giants that year. Others on the scene OF
battle were Joe Hornung, left fielder OF
the Boston team at that time; Dan
Brouthers. first baseman of the Bufialos,
who broke up the winning streak OF the
Providence team by his heavy hitting
and Troy. who played with the Metro

played the MetroPolitans in the first

STATE EDUCATIONAL NEEDS

Missouri's educational needs are
clearly outlined i'm a campaign state
ment by Cornelius Roach. Secretary
of State and candidate for the COVER
norship. when he says. Progress de-
mands more efficient system of coun-
try schools than can be had at
the present average daily cost
of 9 cents pupil; progress
demands type OF education
more suited to the needs of our varied
Industries. better calculated to in
crease the prosperity of the states
producing factors and the happiness of
the people"
Here he hits upon at least the par
tial solution of two of the states big
problems country life and the un-
skilled laborer. There is hardly a
greater drawback to life in the rural
districts than the poor educational ia
cilties. And yet the state stands still,
when the expenditure of a few more
cents a pupil would mean more teach
ers, better teachers. better school
equipment and broader curriculum.
Industrial education makes an even
stronger appeal. The elimination of
the great class of unskilled labor by
means of vocational education would
solve one of the states big social prob
lens.
