FUTURE AND PRESENT
A sermon by the Rev A. P. Smith, former Be
rea boy now at Bellevue, Ky.

Let Thine eyes look right on =.
Ponder the path OF thy feet. Turn
not to the right hand nor to the
left, Prov. 4. 25-27.
From the study Of the past and
careful searching Of things present we
are led to believe that Greatness
is the ideal of all achievement. 10
lead. rule and serve ones age or call
ing ic no mean attainment. To bring
according to the demands OF today
that which will make US conquerors
Is in keeping with the principles OF
Divine Wisdom and the word OF God,
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to DO
do with all thy might" or with the
more recent phraseology, Reach the
Highest Possible" SO that the excel
lence of efficiency will create the
demand for our service. The day OF
fake and favors is passing from the
realm of the active life and the world
Is coming to realize that real worth
is the great heritage to be sought.
When men are awakened to the fact
of the greatness OF men and the like
ness of God in him. he will readily
see that to waste life is to rob God
as well as to destroy himself.
We are ceasing to cry in deprecia-
ton of our humanity that we are
poor weak worms of the dust and
coming to pray, Lord help me to
ennoble that which was created by
thee, but has been marred by sin.
Ny body the work of thy hands and
the planning Of thy pleasure" We are
realizing more fully the blessings OF
hygiene and moral power that radi-
ates from the Divine forces in the
Natural World.
The present always writes the leg
acy of the future. Shall we make
the future great? 1t all depends on
doing we'll our part day by day.

lcoutinued loom First Pag,

morning the conferrees had come to
a dead halt, and II appeared that the
revisionists would be forced TO con-
sent TO the unsatisfactory rates on
lumber and on gloves. At this june
ture President Taft by free hints OF
another special tariff session in octo-
Der, and by letter addressed direct
ly to the conferres, made It plain that
he would not sign any bill which did
not meet the modest requirements
which he had at first set down. This
letter brought the conferrees 20 time
In short order The Capitol buzzed
like a swarming hive OF bees for sew
eral hours. but at five o'clock in
the evening the last malcontents.-
the lumber Senators from the West,
Laid down their arms. and the con-
ference report was signed.
Or Friday Chairman Payne brought
this report before the House In the
presence OF crowded gallaries. aud
with half the members OF the Senate
on the House floor. lie was given a
tremendous and surprising demonstra-
ton when he rose to make his report,
and indeed Il appears that. by his
conduct OF the legislative campaign
now closing this seasoned veteran VIII
has given a long life to service in
the House has shown himself the equal
In law-making service at least OF Nc
Kinley. Sherman. Mills and the great
legislators OF the United States since
the Civil War.-although this is OF
course a matter of opinion. II is ex-
pected that the tariff bill will become
law by the 9Th or 9Th Of August.
The following tables chow the value
Of different articles used each year
in this country. anc whether the tax
on them Is increased or decreased by
the bill. The first item. for instance
shows that the value OF all chemicals
used in the United States each year
is s444, 205, 500, and that the duty Is
decreased on 43S.O99,s46 worth OF
these and increase on 81, los, 500
worth. Other items work the same
way.

"The National Game" as it has come
TO be called has many qualities that
commend 1t as form of amusement
and exercise for country school boys,
as well as for those of higher institu-
lions. 1t requires in almost equal
proportions the three great factors
in play, physical exertion, mental
alertness and skill.
REQUIREMENTS OF A PLAYER.
Most people probably look upon 1t
as a physical exercise game and sup
pose that strength and endurance are
the chief requisites. An experienced
captain would look much more TO
the skill and to the power to think
quickly and accurately. than to physi-
cal powers of a candidate.
Let us consider what is required to
make a successful player"
In the first place. it takes long
time, years in fact, to thoroly master
the game, and constant practice to

"fans the air" tao the pitcher is only
a scrub" In the field he "muffs''
a elmer" and lets a "grounder" go

by saying that he used to be a good
player, but has not touched a ball
for years.
Most expert ball players begin when
they are infants, play steadily thru
early boyhood, and thru the grades
and make the high school and later
the varsity" team, and even after
playing all thru college days COM
paratively few are capable of becom-
