Some one has said that the last place for an erring girl or a wa ward boy to go for help Is to the church' Surely this cannot be true. or the spirit of the Master has not been manifested by His disciples. I would rather believe that the men of the shepherd heart. the followers of the friend of sinners. had made possible the juvenile court as a city of refuge for the very young when overtaken by folly and sin.

The manufacture of crlllnals out of juvenile delinquents has got to be topped On the other hand. there Is a streak of sentimentality in the attitude of many good people toward the wrong-doer. There is a large measure of unpunished crime that tends to break down public justice. This very subject of murder is stin an acute problem in our own United States. It is horrible to read of the thousands of cases that occur annually.

Thou shall not kill" is still deserving of emphasis In the rehearsal of the Ten Commandments. LEST WE FORGET. The season which cracks open in the Southern league Thursday afternoon Is the nineteenth played. There will be 140 games. The last pennant was captured by the Atlanta.

In one of the hardest fought pitchers' battles ever seen In prep circles in this section of the state the fut G. IL A. nine. by costly errors on the part of their opponents de fasted the slugging Pultonites on the tatters diamond at. Piedmont park Tuesday by the score of 2 to A large delegation 7 cadets from the College Park institution were out for the encounter cheering their tear.

The girls composing the famous Fulton High baseketball team. which made such a reputation last season were not on the scene of battle. as they had bought tickets for the opera Faust. Some Fulton players. laid their defeat to the absence of their girl friends.

Fulton High lost the game on er rors. Stephenson on second and Mils. In center. being responsible for misses which cost their team a good game. First Up Triples.

Weyman Lertwltch. first man up for Fulton High In the first sent the first ball thrown to him to deep left for three bases. Stephenson. next man up was out. pitcher to first base.

his op posing hurler piked out twelve. Mooty outpltched OQulnn al though each allowed five hits Mooty receiving poor suport. especially when errors on the part of his teammates meant runs for his op ponents. Many Sacks Stolen. Coach David's bunch of College Park athletes certainly did take chances on stealing.

In all they were accredited with six thefts. while only one Fulton man was able to get away from the' ever alert catcher for G. M. A. For the losersMooty was the big star.

Mlnhlnnltt. on short. and W. Leftwlch on third. also played jam- up ball.

with G. A second. Fulton third. Tech High fourth and Marist In the cellar. From all indications it appears that th second half will be even more interesting the first.

PRANK DROPS THREE. Captain Sammy Mayer announced Tuesday night that Manager Frank has released Pitcher A. H. Wingo Infielder Harry Achlnger and Loren Thrasher to Greenville C. Manager Johnny 1.

Vat of the Greenville team. was in the city Tuesday and completed negotiations with the Cracker leaders for the three players. Frank is carrying 2 names on his roster. The release of these three will leave 23. with Tom Sheehan still In France.

fl. He must cut to 15 players by open- Ing- day. which means that seven more are to go. There has been a slight doubt In the minds of some fans as whether or not Charley has assembled a hitting aggregation this season. If those doubters could just Journey to Ponce de Leon park some after.

noon and see Messrs. Mayer Gooch Bratchl. Chrlstenbury and Herndon whale the sphere they wouldn't remain In the doubter class very long. Unless the dope Is far wrong those are the boys who are going to do the 300 hitting this season and it will not take them long to prove the assertion. You couldn't exactly call Franks 1919 infield a million dollar organ- izatlon because it didn't cost so very much but there is one thing about the bunch who are going to.

handle the inner gardens they have made about one error in all of their practice games thus far and are fielding like demons. There have been times when even a million dollars wouldn't buy that much In the Southern league. Some soldiers who have turned from France have told miraculous tales about seeing the shells as they whistle through the atmosphere. You can hear em all right. but the man who.

sees them has had a wonderful optical Illusion. The closest Atlanta baseball tans will ever- get to seeing anything like a bullet or shell is when they see th tire of one Harris Thorburn. We have Rawson. the sturdy who a ures us that the man who sees Thorburns fast ones is going to have to. make his orbs travel mighty fast.

Frank has announced the up for. his opening game. but has left the two positions of receiver and twirler In the balance with three names to choose from for mounds. man and two for backstop. In spite of the fact the Dutchman has left a doubt on paper.

those who. have been following the spring training of the Crackers to any extent can easily see who is going to work against Chattanooga Thursday. Our dope is Thorburn in the box and Nelderkorn behind the plate. LOOKS- LIKE TIIORD11RV WILL WOflit. It had been working out regularly there Is no doubt but what Frank would place him in charge of Chattanooga's Niekllnitex.

not that Ad is not in condition. but he has been coaching the Fulton High school team und wants a little time in which to get his wing going as it should. Thorburn. as has been stated. possesses worlds of stuff and has I.

fast ball that is well worth re garding1 He i a Rood mound general and is one of those pitchers who uses something besides his arm In his work. Nelderkorn should catch the opener but for one reason. Doe is just up from a siege of influenza end may feel that his powers are a bit limited this early in the game. He un possesses the same peg to second which has won him undying praises and works his pitchers In the same way. but the ravages of influenza.

are not to be scoffed at and the doctors tell Doe that he should go slow for a few weeks yet. In the event Rawson works Atlanta tans are going to see Charley latest boy receiver and realize that after all Is' said the Dutch' man is some picker. Just to hear Rawson talk to his pitchers and wheedle every ounce of stuff out of them is going to. be worth the price of admission to Ponce de Loon park. COMB OX DIG PITCHER.

Come on big pitcher work for me now. has come to be a. phrase the Atlanta boys are proud of. am the big. pitchers generally.

do worn for the former Georgia star. Raw- son is one of those cut boys. just out of college and playing ball for the love of the sport as much as anything else. He should be' one of the most popular members of the 1919 Crackers. With the Crackers ready and all plans made to care for the record- breaking crowd which is going to attend the opener it begins to- look like Thursday is going to see a baseball jollification such as has been witnessed here in ery few years during the past.

Merchants are beginning- to open up their hearts fox' their employees. and it is an assured fact that very few people who want to see the getaway of the Crackers at Poucey will be. disappointed. They al agree that this is just too big a thing to be disappointed in. are still getting telegrams from other managers throughout th circuit telling of their indecision and trouble in getting their lineups together.

Taking it all the way round there are miles and miles smiles and business looks good fo us in the Martin Marathon.

The pony bolted and the plaintiff was thrown out and in lured.
