A good circus has always been conceded to be big educational fae- tor, owing to the numbers of animals they carry in their menageries, af '. fording an eye study of natural his tory more impressive than could be gleaned from numberless books.
 When Al. G. Barnes made new cir GUS history by putting on "person- ally conducted trip" through the an imal tents of his big four ring wild animal circus, that teachers and child ren could not only get natural his tory study but simplified learning of animal psychology under the di recting hand of a competent lecturer, it was the means of schools of all classes, wherever the Barnes circus exhibits, giving a day from the usual school studies and permitting all that possibly could taking advantage of this rare educational feature.

There are others, of course, but
these youngsters have come 20 the
front surprisingly in the opening
months of the season and now can
be safely said to have reached the
stage which has made regular big
leaguers of them.
The work of Hickman and Cruise
both at bat and in the field has been
especially sensational and during the
last two weeks Bigbee's batting has
improved tremendously.
Cruise has led the league in bat

ting pretty consistently since the
opening of the season and is con-
stantly increasing his lead. Cruise
has filed the shoes OF the brilliant
Bescher in every way. He ranks fifth
in the league in base stealing.
Although his record is not so SEN
sational Hickman is filing a big hole
in the losing Brooklyn club. His
work in the corner of the garden for
merly occupied by Hy Myers is con-
sistent and he is clouting the ball
with great regularity.
The surprise of the last two or
three weeks has been Bigbee, whose
batting during the early part of the
year was disappointing. Since Big
bee has been playing the outfit reg
ularly he has been hitting at $50
clip.
