thing. Often his outpurst is like q
thunder storm the thunder and the
lightning are tremendous while they
last, but are soon over. Then, just
as soon as possible, divert the child,
get him interested and busy about
something.
A much harder type of child to
deal with and one that tries our pa
tience more, is the sullen child. He
makes no outlet for himself like the
angry child who vents his temper in
screams and passionate talk, his bad
temper works all on the inside. He
broods over the trouble, distorting
and enlarging it by dwelling upon it..
He usually refuses comfort and
sympathy and seems to enjoy shut
ting himself away from everyone.
He is usually sensitive child-shy,
lacking confidence in himself, in
clined to dwell upon himself. too
much. What can we do with such
a childf He won't talk the trou-
BILE over, like the high-tempered one,
and it is unwise to put him by him
self as you would the high tempered
child. Give him something to be busy
about as soon as possible. Work is
even more necessary for him than
for any other type of child, for we
must get him out of himself. If pos.
sible, have him work where he will
have the companionship of his bro

help you in what you're doing. Work
is a blessing for most persons, but

who is inclined to live his little life

is usually reserved and takes things
hard but to the few people he loves

loyalty and usually he has a deep,
strong nature which is sincere and
true.

OF the many problems which con-
front mother, one Of the hardest is
that of meeting in the wisest way
the undesirable traits that appear in
children. In dealing with these prob
lens there are two great helps.
First, sense of humor. If a child
comes down to breakfast sullen and
bad tempered, make some little joke.
it helps to clarity the atmosphere (I
don't mean laugh at the child, that
only add fuel to the fireD but do
some amusing thing, or tell funny
story and you will make the clouds
vanish like magic. Parents who APP
preciate fun and who are the real
companions of their little ones have
the happiest and most affectionate
children. But most important of all
is grace. Grace is that lovely, low
ing spirit which, no matter how try
ing the children are, cannot be dis
turbed. We cannot have this of
ourselves, it is the gift of God. He
says, my grace is sufficient for
thee" so, when the children are
noisy and naughty and our nerves
seem just about in pieces, let us say
this over and over mentally and we
shall be surprised at the peace and
quietness within ourselves that will
follow.
Granted that we have sympathy
and poise ourselves we are in a ft
condition to help our children to
overcome their faults. Often children
are cross and naughty because they
are overtired over-excited or hun
gry. We must be sure that their
naughtiness does not come from
some physical reason that we can
help. If a child is in bad tenn
per the first thing to do is to quiet
him. How BY being very quiet our
selves. but very firm, letting him see
our strength and poise and then try
ing to find out what has stirred him.
By talking it over with him and let
ting him pour it out, his nerves will
be freed and he will have an outlet |
FOR his passion. IF he seems uncon-
trollable, and it is impossible to talk |
with him, put him by himself until
he is more calm. While he is in a

LOCAL TEAM WON z
AND LOST 2 GAMES
DAWSON AGGREGATION LOS
ES TO CCLQUITT BUT BESTS
PELHAM IN A SERIES.

The Dawson ball club went down
in defeat before the Colquitt aggrega-
ton here at Baldwin park Tuesday al
ternoon by the score of e to 3. Seth
Dekle, former University of Georgia
star, performed excellent mound work
for the Miller county lads with Stein
receiving, while Jack Holland, of G.
M. c. fame, twirled for the locals with
Nasworthy catching. The features OF
the game were the twirling of Dekle,
and fielding of Stapleton for the visi-
tors, also the smuggling OF Wade for
the locals. Umpire: Dudley Cooke.
Dawson began the series Of Daw-
SON Pelham games by taking the first
two by the scores of seven to two on
Wednesday and II to 4 on Thursday
but lost the third, hard fought battle
of twelve frames, on Friday BY the
score of 8 to 7.
On Wednesday Walter Bridges
twirled excellent ball for the locals,
with McNulty working behind the
platter, while Harrell performed mound
work for the Mitchell county aggrega-
ton, with Davis receiving. Besides
twir1ing an excellent game Bridges
used the willow successfully taking
two out of three chances at bat. Cooke
for Dawson proved the star slugger,
securing three hits, one being Babe
Ruth" Harrell for the visitors handled
the pill nicely, but inheld errors &C
counted for the large score. Umpires
Cooke and Arnold.
The second game of the series was
also registered in favor of the Terrell
countians by the score OF II to 4. Red
dick for Dawson was in good form
and was just too much for the Pelham
aggregation, but Herring Tor the visi-
tors was hit freely at all stages of the
fracas. The entire Dawson team hit
we'll, while Cooke featured for Daw-
son in the field by making several
nice catches4 Campbell for Pelham
was best for his club, both at bat and
in the field Until the fifth frame the
game was a close and exciting one,
but here the locals registered seven
runs, which caused the game to end
considerably one-sided. Cooke and Ar
mold acted as umpires.
The Pelham aggregation turned the
tables on the locals Friday and won
hotly contested game of twelve in
nings by the score of s to 7. At the
beginning of the twelfth frame the
score stood to 5 in favor of the UNI
pire, but in this frame Pelham regis
tered three runs and Dawson two,
this placing the victory with the visi-
tors. 1t seems the old saying, "All
things come to them that wait" proves
true in some cases at least, and Pei
ham waited until the very last to score
her victory Umpire: Reddick.
Dawson will face the Leary aggre-
cation today, Wednesday and Thurs
day, and will invade Edison on Friday.

in a one-sided game on Thursday at
ternoon in Bronwood by a score of 10
to S. Butts twirled good ball for
Bronwood throughout the game with
A. Gammage receiving, while both
Bradley and Lunsford, twirlers for the
visitors, proved easy for the Brentwood
batsmen Bass worked behind the plat
ter for the Sumter county lads. The
feature of the game was the circuit
drive by Waller, of the Brentwood
club, with the bases full. R. Gam
mage Tor Brentwood featured with the
willow, securing four safeties out of
five chances. Brentwood has a good
team with an excellent record and is
