The number of automobile accidents could be materially, lessened if moth- ers would impress upon their children the necessity of looking in both di- rections before venturing off the side- :Iva]ks, declares Willlam H. Stewart, ¥ Mr. Stewart writes: “Almost every day one reads of the killing of some child by an autome- bile, but in rine cases out of ten the accident is unavoidable, so far as the automobilist is concerned. The child runs suddenly into the roadway, prob- ably from behind some vehicle, and 15 under the wheels of the automobile before an attempt to check its speed is possible.” The invitation extended by the mayor and the Commercial associa- tion of the city of Cincinnati to the American Road Builders' association to hold its fifth annual convention in that city has been accepted. The convention and the American Good Roads congress, which Is always held In connection with the convention, Vzlll, therefore, be held in Music hall, Cincinnati, December 3, 4. 5 and 6. The condition of the Branford roads is up for discussion at the pres- ent time and the people of Pine Or- chard who have for years been en- raged, because of the few privileges said to be extended to them, for the large amount of taxes they pay into the town treasury, are now thorough- ly aroused, and they threaten to com- pel Branford to repair the roads. They are to take the matter to the county commissioner for settlement. Those who own automobiles are thoroughly on the war path. Not only are the roads full of holes, but treacherous sharp stones, and broken glass are a menace to tires, What promises to be the biggest race ever held on the famous road course at Elgin, Iil, b, been defl- nitely scheduled for Aug. 30, 81 next.

DIAMOND NOTES Montreal has won six double-head- ers this season, and all on Satar- days. Outfielaer Carrigan of the Waah- ington State league has been bought by the White Sox. Pitcher Cole of Pittsburgh hes been indefinitely suspended for not taking the proper care of himself. Walter Johnson has won his lsst nine games, but is still considerable distance behind Marquasd's r Wood and Plank are tied for firsi place in percentage of games won in the American league, a fitting arrange- ment of such timber. Pitcher John McCloskey has been fined $100 and suspended imdefinitely by the Wilkes-Barre (Pa.) club for at- tacking Business Manager Turkes. The latest batting averages shos that the lowest five in the Natiemal league are all Phillles, and thet the lowest five in the American are all Athletics. The Real Reds are not the Cinetn- natis, but a team composed of the fol- lowing sorrel tops: Dooin, Wingo, Ames, O'Toole, Killifer, Downs, Smith, Murray and Corriden. Manager Griffith hes wired John Henry at Amberst to join the team at once if he is in shape. Willlkans has a sore hand leaving Ainamith the eamly catcher in good trim. Herman Nickerson of the Baston Journal says the Red Sox have od poor ball since leaving home and the peculiar thing about it is that de- feats have been so few Shortstop Foreman of the Kanka- Xee team of the Illinois-Missour! got in the unassisted triple-play list récently in & game between Kanlkakes and Champaign In the former place.

There hasn't been any better third base and shortstop work than has bhean put up lately by Herzog and Fletcher respectively. The harder they come and the meaner they bound the better they ltke them. Having Walter Johnson ready to re- leve the other pitchers is of great help to the team. The moral effwat of sending Johnson out to warm up when one of the other pitchers happens to be going peorly ecannot ba setimated.
