CLOUI OF THE SEASON

The September stretch of the Ma
tional League pennant race opens with
the Pirates one and one-half games
ahead Of the Giants. Neither of these
clubs was in action yesterday. but
the Pirates face the hard-hitting
Cardinals in two games today. while
the Giants are meeting the Dodgers
in Brooklyn. Yesterday. the Braves
held to third place by disposing of
the Reds. but the Cards, who are
driving for the show position, took
the measure of the Phillies.
The Cardinals slugged in hearty
fashion and drubbed the Phils, IL to
5. Hits came so fast that two Card
players were unable to keep out Of
the way and consequently were
called out. Hornsby not only brought
his season total to 200 hits, but made
a home run and two doubles Hornsby
now has twenty home runs, two less
than Kelly of 'he Giants.
The major league record Of twenty
eight assists for the infielders of both
teams was equaled in the game in
which the Braves beat the Reds, to
1. The Red infielders had thirteen and
the Brave infielders fifteen. Oeschger
held the losers to six hits and was
invincible after the first inning.

CAUGHT ON THE FLY

Although slugEinE OvershadOwed all
else, yesterdays debacle was not with
out worth while fielding features
Elmer Miller ran a mile" to take
Shanks' smash with one hand. close
to the center-field fence. in the sixth
inning. and Harris fairly sparkled in
robbing Ward of hit by snaring
his roller over the midway in round 4.
The Nationals were penalized for a
bit of rough work by Harris in the
fourth. He was on first, with Rice
ON second. when Shanks bounded to
Peck. The latter's throw to second
forced Harris, who coilidnd with
Ward in such Il manner as to prevent
him from attempting throw to Pipp.
This palpable bit of interference by
Harris resulted in Shanks being de-
clared out anG the Yanks weI e
credited with having effected donble
play.
Ninth place batsmen on McBride's
roster had lean day of 1t. Ia achary,
Schacht and Courtney each whitfield
on his only appearance, as did
Brewer. who subbed for AL in the

Both OF Miller's errors were due to
poor returns of balls hit into his

Dubs II IngratItuds.

Simpson County News.
The lngratitude of those who
brought about the war to the soldier
who fought and wen the war has no
parallel in all the history of the
world. The same crowd who plead
for war so Justify are now working
overtime to find excuses for refusing
to pay the soldier what is rightly
due him. These are the patriots
who saw chance to fill their purses
at the expense OF their country by
an unholy course of profteering.
We can : pay the soldier a small bo-
nus, but we paid more than two bill
lions of good American dollars on
contracts for articles that were
never delivered. This money was
paid to various corporations for con-
tracts cancelled at the close of the
war. We gave outrighS to the rail-
roads five hundred millions of dollars
not il return for service during
the war, but just gave it to them be-
cause we had war. Out of the
proceeds of our Liberty Bond sale
we loaned England four hundred
millions of dollars, which money En-
gland used to pay her farmers bo-
nus. But when we ask this great
government to help the soldiers
they raise cry that it woulk bank
rupt the government TO give them
what is due them. They also say 1t
would be putting price on patriot
ism TO help them.

EDITORIAL

One Of our exchanges Of the init
persuasion tries to make fun OF what
De is pleased to call the Vardaman
ties by sneering at their mental con-
dition, suggesting they are fit sub
jects for RECOMMENDATION to the
Home for Feeble minded being cree
ted by the State at Ellisvile. We
have heard such character of talk
before but after the election in which
Vardaman won it was hard to find
and fasten authorship on these kind
Of grandiloquent remarks. The av-
alanche of votes showed too many of
hat mind in casting their ballots.
Its rather unkind to resort to dis
counting the mental processes of
those who did not agree with us in
Mississippi politics. A broader and
more charitable view is better pol
icy lest the CRITIC be ia turn accused
Of lack of mental acuteness and be
placed on the defensive.
