Hasty Not Hasty

Atlanta club on the faithful and again

gether Bob Hasty's fault that the Tigers
COPIED the final of the series by 3 70 2.
The fact is that Hasty pitched a very
impressive ball game. True enough, he
got away to a bad start and allowed a
pair of runs to trinkle over the disc
in the first, but thereafter he was as
steady as the City Hall clock. He per-
mitted only eight bingles and outside
Of the first kept them we'll scattered.
Also it might he mentioned in passing
that he famed Ty Cobb, which is some
thing for a recruit to do on his first
day out.

ton, which is some feat for a normal
human being. He has six feet three
inches of height and about 200 pounds,
also a fast ball, a slow ball, a curve
and good control.
But his name is all wrong. When he's
not on the hill he's as hasty as an As
bury Park accommodation train and he
looks as ambitious as a conductor on
any line after 2 a. m. He's a typical
southerner.

THE coLoRED CHILD uPLIFT.
&c, IL. rd..r

Some reasons why there. should be
an association for the upIift of the
colored Child:
a. We must look after all that
involves race interest, race spirit and
to promote racial fixed notion. We
should not leave any good thing UNI
done, especially the welfare of our
children. Nor expect any other race
to do for those dependant on Us what
should fire and stimulate our hearts
to do for them
CD The chief principles of de-
cent, useful, upright life, embodying
that finish and round completion In
the things the child Is best fitted,
mostly from choice, genius, and a
special devotion to art literature.
music, sculpture, mechanics or what
ever else, let rs give them the oppor-
tunity if we find them bristiing with
the evidences of genius, and let Us
not denie them ever.
ca The time has come when We
must assemble a few brave, courage
ous, stout hearts, inspired already by
our race achievements, to establish
a far-fetehed organization, singular
for its unselfshness, and nobility of
sacriie among Us who, having the
intellectual fire and the zeal to pro-
mote the best interests of our young
people, determine Independently Of
any other race the future outlook of
the same, to which end We must or
game an association for the Uplift
of the Colored Child.

an education, and then he has pro-
duced something. He did not have
parents with big money to push him

something else new. Our people have
opened a bank and trust company.
We have been opening banks before
but this is the time and first at that
we have had the trust feature con-

well. They started out with capital

posted on the first day $50, 900, and
that is going some honey bunch. They
were all us. P. B. Young, is presi-
