BASEBALL GAME OF
BLUFF, SAYSBRIT0N
London Field Gives an Inter-
8 esting Insight Into English
Conception of Our Game.

An interesting insight into the Eng
lish conception of baseball is given in
an article in the London Field. which
says In part:
Americans have never taken kindly
to cricket which they regard as much
too slow a game for their temperament.
and their humorous writer's are never
tired OF describing In 4 most good
natured way the little failings and pecu-
liarities Of our national game. Curiously
enough. Englishmen also think that base
ball is too slow a game for their tenn
permanent, and although probably very
few of them could give q good reason
for this idea the actual cause is not
far to seek.
Baseball is admittedly a game or
bluff, and tho most audacious and in
genious blur of all is to give the title
of '1nning" to what il nothing more or
less than an over. Call the Ginning"
by its real title, "over." and all the
hustle of baseball disappears immedi-
ately. 1t will seem almost incredible to
English cricketers, but It is fact, as
attested in the Daily Mol in an analysis
Of the July 4 game by an American base
ball Journalist, that although In the
course OF the game something like $50
balls were thrown-a matter OF forty
odd overs at cricket--the safe hits num-
bered only eight. two by the Army and
six by the Navy. A few other hits were
made. which were 30 poor that they got
a man out. and a few others In the ma
ture of cricket snicks or corner strokes"
were of no advantage to the batter, since
they were behind the boundary line.
'"The snick or corner stroke Is I'M
douhtedly the most spectacular hit in
baseball; indeed. 1t Is practically the
only spectacular stroke. except the hit
out Of the ground. which occurs once In
blue moon.
ut seems a very great pity that this
corner stroke" Is merely thrown away
I'm baseball. In making the stroke the
batsman siogs as usual with a hofi-
zontal bat, and getting Just under the
ball sends It at a very great pace to 4
tremendous height behind him, and some-
times to a considerable distance.

War Community Service Drive.

Beginning with tomorrow, volunteer workers
will undertake the collection of Omaha's share
of the fund that is to be raised by subscription
for the war community service. Seven great
organizations are united in this effort, the pro-
ceeds of which will be apportioned between
them. Volumes have been written of the work
that is being done among the soldiers at home
and abroad through these agencies, and all of
it true. 1t does not matter if peace is declared
at once, this work must go on until the work of
the soldiers has been made complete. How long
this will be no one can say, but the need for the
huts, the reading and writing rooms, the amuse-
ments, and the home surroundings will not be
any the less because the boys are not on the
firing line. In fact, these needs will be the
greater, for the soldiers will have more idle
time, and it is in their moments of idleness that
the war camp community service is most vau-
able. Therefore, it is up to the home folks to
see that nothing is omitted that will help the
lads who wear the uniform, wherever they are.
Omaha has met every response, and should
meet this one, generously.

Future of American Education.

Among the bills slumbering on the files at
Washington is one by Senator Hoke Smith of
Georgia, appropriating $l00000,000 to foster
free education in America through the bureau at
Washington. Senator Smith made consider
able showing in support of his measure last
spring by parading figures on illiteracy. These
are impressive, but not sufficiently so as to en-
tlrely cover all that is contemplated in his BILL
First the point as to Standardization of our
school systems should be disposed of. Within
certain moderate limits, unifcaton of study is
desirable, but no hard or fast rules for cur-
riculum or method should be established. Indi-
vidual tastes in this matter differ as widely as
on religion or politics, and should be left as
tree, with the understanding that some sort of
cultural training must be provided for all, at the
expense of the state or community.
Equally as important is the tendency to CEN
traization of power at Washington. The meas
ure contemplates the placing of all educational
institutions under the direction of the federal
commissioner. This is exactly the German sys-
tenn. While results such as flow in the kaiser's
empire might not follow here, the wisdom of the
experiment is open to question. We do not
want such results. Just now we view more
power in Washington that ever before was
gathered there, and even its temporary con-
solidation in the hands of one man has caused
sober thought. 1t certainly is not desirable to
perpetuate the condition
Americans will remain devoted to the spread
OF education and enlightenment, to the diffusion
of knowledge among all the people, for of such
is the Temple of Liberty built but they will
probably insist upon a more democratic system
than that possible under the Smith bill.

THE RIVER

From a sheltered nook on mountain side.
Meath a hanging rock, crystal tide
Burst through the moss, and leeping free,
Started its journey down to the sea.
At first but silvery trickling thread,
Seeking a path where Its fancy led;
Others 1t met with fond embrace.
And hand in hand continued the race
The soft rustling leaves the hum Of bees;
The whisper Of winds among the trees;
The chirp Of cricket and song OF bird,
And its own murmur alone were heard.
Squirrels hid treasures close to Its brink;
Sweet woodland songsters fingered to
drink;
The sunlight peeped through and caught
the CLEAN
OF ripping waves on the rushing stream.
Past the old mill with mosscovered wall
With wooden wheel towering over all,
Sparkling and dripping, 1t moved with a

And gave 1t turn as 1t hurried py.

Then bounding and dancing onward it

Bringing good cheer to all who might be

Through woodland dense and through low

Through rocky gorge ana through i'eios

Through towns and cities, the haunts of

Through barren desert, mountain and glen;
Through peaceful farms and through
