Who Were the Spiders?

The Cooper family was about to move because Dad had a new job in Colorado. He had been out of work for a year, and Natalie and Mason knew he had been unhappy, but now a new job was making things look better. As Dad said, “Every cloud has a silver lining.”

Dad was already in Colorado, but Mom stayed behind so that the twins Natalie and Mason could finish fifth grade at Oak School. Today, Natalie and Mason were helping to pack boxes, and they enjoyed looking at the old treasures, especially the photo albums.

Natalie picked up a photo of a baseball team. The men’s uniforms had CLEVELAND printed on them. Someone had written 1895 on the photo.

Mason asked Mom, “Is there a famous baseball player in our family?”

“I don’t know of anyone in my family, but maybe there was someone in your dad’s family,” she said, “so remember to ask about the photo when you talk to your dad tonight.”

That night, Dad called, and Mason was eager to talk to him. “Dad, we found a photo today of a baseball team that played in 1895. Did one of your relatives play on a team a long time ago?”

Dad said, “It’s familiar, but I don’t know the story. Some of the photos are my father’s, so why don’t you call him and see if he knows?”

Grandpa Ken recalled that a relative played for a Cleveland team, a cousin of his great-grandfather whose last name was Zimmer. So, Grandpa suggested they look up early Cleveland teams.

Mason and Natalie headed for the computer and found a baseball encyclopedia. They discovered three early Cleveland teams: Cleveland Blue, 1879–1884; Cleveland Infants, 1890–1890; and Cleveland Spiders, 1887–1899.

Mason shouted, “We found the answer! Our 1895 photo must show the Cleveland Spiders.”

They looked for Cleveland Spiders and found an article. A new Cleveland ballpark had opened on May 2, 1891. Cy Young was the starting pitcher, and Zimmer was listed as one of the players. “That’s the cousin of our great-great-grandfather!” said Natalie.

Mason wanted to know more, so they searched a baseball almanac. In 1895, the team came in second. But in 1899, the Spiders were baseball’s worst team. Zimmer was a player on both teams. “Oh, well, you can’t win them all,” Natalie said.

“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise,” Mom suddenly called from downstairs. It was time for bed! They would have to find out more about the Cleveland Spiders tomorrow.

It was Jilly's last day in the green house. Summer was coming to an end and so was the growing season. School would be starting next week and the fall plants were well enough along to allow Mrs. T. to manage the greenhouses herself. As Jilly worked the plants for the last time, she tried to focus on the new school year instead of the details of the greenhouse. It had been a hard, hot summer, but Jilly was not ready for it to be over.

Jilly moved down the tables, tucking a stray hair behind her ear with a gloved and already dirty hand. She'd repotted the last of the rosemary plants and mixed a new batch of potting soil already. Mrs. T. now had enough potting soil to last her through September. Jilly looked at a couple of maiden-hair ferns that were beginning to yellow in their small pots. She loved their lacey fronds and had grown concerned over the last few days that they needed repotting or a boost of fertilizer. She had also worried that she would continue to find chores that needed doing, plants that needed help, right up until the minute she left today. She hated unfinished things. She hated details not being tended to.

The sun had been above the trees and blasting the greenhouse for a good hour now. Jilly listened for the familiar whirr of the automatic vents opening. When the greenhouse reached a certain temperature, the vents would open automatically. The vents would have a cooling effect for an hour or so, and then no amount of breeze would put a dent in the heat. Mrs. T. often claimed Jilly must be part reptile as she was able to work longer in the greenhouse than anyone else. The heat just didn't bother her. In fact, Jilly often looked forward to the warmth of the greenhouse and feeling the heat seep into her bones. It felt good to her, but she understood others who found it hard to breathe in 100 degree temperatures.

Jilly heard the greenhouse door bang, and looked up from her ferns to see Mrs. T. walking down the aisle with a tray of young plants. Mums, Jilly supposed, the flowers everyone wants for fall. She had helped Mrs. T. take cuttings and plant the small stems in new pots. They were doing nicely from the look of things.

"We will keep these in here for now," said Mrs. T. "They are getting too much rain outside."

It had been a rainy couple of days. Jilly knew, as well as anyone, that overwatering could kill potted plants quickly.

"Do you remember when I overwatered those mint plants?" Jilly asked Mrs. T.

"I used to think no one could kill a mint plant," Mrs. T. said, laughing.

"Well I am full of surprises, apparently," Jilly replied. Jilly remembered the sad green plants that just kept looking more and more wilted no matter how much water she gave them. It was a beginner's mistake, and Jilly had been so embarrassed for making it.

"That you are," replied Mrs. T. "But I know you learned a lesson you won't ever forget."

"Of course. Herbs like their roots damp, not flooded," Jilly answered.

"Well that is not the lesson I was thinking of," Mrs. T. said.

Jilly wondered for a minute what the lesson could be. She straightened the rows of geraniums in front of her, picking up one or two to check for aphids under the leaves. It had been a summer full of lessons, some especially hard for a girl who thought she knew a lot about plants. She breathed deeply the warm, humid air. She hated the cooped up feeling of air conditioned air, the feeling of being cut off from the sun. She knew school and the library would offer only these uncomfortable feelings and little time to spend in the sun or with plants. She had come to understand this over the summer—her need to be around growing things was huge.

"I'm not sure, Mrs. T." she said, "I've learned so much this summer. I couldn't possibly say what you are thinking."

"You did learn many lessons, Jilly. You knew so much when you started. You've gone farther than any other assistants I've had. I will miss you."

"And I will miss you," Jilly replied. "Thank you for the opportunity and the job." Jilly watched Mrs. T. put the tray of mums down on the center row of tables. Wearing her familiar brown apron, Mrs. T. looked just as she had on Jilly's first day.

"My pleasure, of course, dear," Mrs. T. replied. "My hope for you, as for all my assistants over the years, is that you will learn as much about yourself as you do about growing plants."

Recalling her thoughts all morning, about what she enjoyed about her summer job, Jilly realized she knew much more than just how to not drown the mint.

Which line from the text best summarizes Mrs. T.'s lesson to Jilly?

"Well that is not the lesson I was thinking of," Mrs. T. said.
"You did learn many lessons, Jilly. You knew so much when you started."
"You've gone farther than any other assistants I've had. I will miss you."
"That you will learn as much about yourself as you do about growing plants."

SIMPLE EASY READ AND ANSWER EASY QUESTONS


The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) is a deal between three countries. The three countries are the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Some people like it. Other people hate it. It was signed in 1992. NAFTA made it easier for the three countries to sell things to each other. They would not have to pay extra money, like special taxes. Taxes are sometimes added to the price of things that are sold.

Getting rid of these taxes is called free trade. Buying and selling things is called trade. Free trade helps countries sell the things they make easily. It also lets countries buy things from other countries that they can't grow or make. For example, some countries can't grow oranges because it's too cold there.

NAFTA is similar to a deal in Europe. There is a group of countries called the European Union. They got rid of taxes so that European countries could sell more things to each other. This led to more trade in Europe.

NAFTA became a law in 1994.

Critics said NAFTA would be bad for workers
Many people like NAFTA. They thought that free trade would bring wealth. They thought it would create millions of jobs. Other people did not agree. They thought it was just a way for big companies to make more money.

People who did not like NAFTA also worried about jobs. They thought that Canadian and American factories would move to Mexico. People were worried that if that happened they would the lose their jobs. That is because it is cheaper to hire workers in Mexico.

People also worried that new factories would hurt the environment in Mexico. Some people worried that small farmers would lose their farms. Big farms might become too powerful for smaller ones to keep up.

NAFTA was better for Mexico than the U.S. or Canada
NAFTA didn't deliver all it promised. NAFTA may have helped Mexico the most. Mexico traded much more. This meant that Mexicans could get more goods to buy. Meanwhile, the United States and Canada had less success with NAFTA.

But not many jobs were lost in America or Canada. Most companies did not move to Mexico. And NAFTA did not cause environmental problems like some people thought it would.

Expansion
In 2004, NAFTA expanded to include five Central American countries. This was called the Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA). Other South and Central American countries joined later. A new deal was signed in 2015. It is called the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). It is like NAFTA, but in Asia.
