As in previous years the Cicinnatti Reds started like a whirlwind and then faded away. be- fore July 4. “Babe” Ruth, the Red Sox ham- mering marvel, has chalked up eleven home runs so far this season. The veteran Jesse Burkett*is pilot- ing a team of speedy collegians in the semi-pro field of New England this summer. Rube Marquard, Brooklyn's flossy twirler, certainly has the number of his old team-mates, the Giants, this seasor erly all of the memebrs of the New Orleans team have landed in the big yard since the closing of the Southern League. From the way the Senators have been going of late there doesn’t seem to be much the matter with Clark Griffith’s pastimers. It begins to look as if the Pirates had seen their best days, at least so} far as this year’s campaign is con- cerned. The Cleveland Indians appear to be in good position to start something should the Red Sox or Yankees hesi- tate in the American League pennant struggle. Despite the fact that he had a shot to pieces team with which to start the merry doings this year, Pat Mo- ran has kept his Phillies well up in the raee. The Boston Braves were the first big league team to play twilight baseball, their games at home being scheduled to start at 6 o'clock. Pitcher “Hippo” Vaugn is having one of the best years of his career on the mound, with considerable benefit to the Cubs in their race for the flag. The game fight which thes New York (Yankees have been pptti' abilities of manager’ Miller Huggins. The St. Louis Browns were fortun- ate in annexing a string of victories in the early season. Otherwise their recent slump would have landed them in the cellar. Bob Steele, the Pirae pitcher re- cently shipped to Kansas...City, should prove ah card for the Blues in their battle for the American As- sociation pennant. Captain Eddie Collins of the White Sox averaged a pass to first per game so far, and is in hope of con- tinuing the cleve: york right up to the close of the big s Even with their gr record of victories the Bridgeport Eastern League leaders can’t afford to falter for asecond. Right at their heels are New London and Providence, and both going strong. 1s | They BASTILE DAY ance this year made a national| celebration of our Fourth of July. | It would be ungracious, to say the| > failed to.giv recognition | ‘ Reench Fourth, which all te be the fourteenth. yas on that day in July after our Dec pendence and only a ye ter the ous conclusion of the| war which made it valid, that the| people of Paris struck the first blow| an/execcHent, testimonia] 46° the} Teaches Association, that the pub- ¢ schools must be put on the firing This can be done “only by faithfully teaching the elements of social and economical | science and the meaning of American democracy to the pupils even in the lementary grades.” It matters little what label this rk bears, whether Americaniza- political economy, soci- ology or civics. All that is necessary s to recognize that the fundamental truths of social’ justice and national loyalty must be taught to every American and taught early. The | problems that we are facing and that every industrial nation has to face teday cannot be solved by the men and women with a high degree of spe- cialized training.

And that@gyprac- based on the fine loyalties of life extended and applied to the relations ofthe mass and the in- ternaitonal relationships. re is a war task for teachers calling for great patriotism and great devotion to the ideals in which we profess to believe. - INTERVENTION ter RUSSIAN Intervention in Russia seems ine- vitable. It may not be called inter- VEnuOn, but that is what it must and amount to. The Allies went into SER for the sake of the Greek people and their own security, and the r ult has justified that course. The situation in Russia is fraught with incomparably greater menace than it was in Greece. If we are fighting, as we. say we are, for the liberation of races and the right of every people to chooose its own destiny, we are under moral obligations to save the Russians from the Germans. If we want, ourselves, } to win a clean and decisive victory over Prussianism, the signposts of a necessary war point to Russia as field of operations. Statemen have hesitated to enter h that field w fear of polit appen armed forces, for al complications. It s now that the majority of the Rus would actually welcome our intervention, thus minimizing that objection. As for practica? mil: y men, most of the experts have agreed that the Aliles must somehow reconstitute the eastern front, barring Germany’s military and economic progress toward the East, checking her acquisition of war resources in that quarter, and weak- ening her forces by making her once more face both ways at once. The Allies might not be able to drive the Germans beyond the Rhine |in less than three years. Given that dength of time unobstructed in the st, Germany would master all of Russia that she cares for, militarize Finland and various other fragments of the old empire, gain nearly a mil- lion fresh troops from her new terri- tory and repulace her failing resour- ees of food and war materials. The Allies could then gain their Objects in the west only by giving Germany free hand in the east. That would leave her at liberty to build a great. new military empire and menace the world’s peace more than ever. We cannot face such a prospect. a WAR GARDEN PROSPECTS The Department of Agriculture does not take cognizance of the war eardens—not that it scorns them at Il, but because is too difficult to ollect dependable data on them. are therefore omitted in the denartment bulletins giving, crop forecasts.
