BASEBALL AS A
RECREATION
viii Be the Go in Minneapolis Ser
mon Heard on the Grounds Be-
fore the Game

Minneapolis, Aug. 30.-Minne-
polls baseball fans were treated to
the novel stunt of a sermon at
Nicollet park Sunday afternoon.
Just before time was called for
the game, Umpire King intro
duced Rev. G.. l.. Morril to the
crowd and he addressed the fans
for five minutes, his talk being
highly appreciated by the large
gathering of lung busters.
4 Rev. Merrill made the follow.
ing address:
"Ladies and gentlemen: Mr..
Cantillon, the owner of the Min
neapolis baseball team, is the first
in the history of baseball to have
a religious service at the opening
of a Sunday game. The east may
have Aldrich to rule the west in
politics but when it comes to piety
Minneapolis is bigger than Rhode
Island.
Baseball is our national game,
healthy, hearty and happy COM
pared with football so often play.

I have seen baseball played from
Alaska to South America Hit
the BALI is a magic phrase ringing
with all the love and life of the
sturdy American spirit that makes
us lead the world in everything
worth being, doing or having.
Sunday baseball is enjoyed by
those who cannot go during the
week because they are shut up in
a shop or store. Here with sun
shine, fresh air and genial COM
panions, they thrill with the life
God gave them.
II never attend a Sunday game
because I go during the week.
Sunday, 1 believe, should b. diff
different from every other day in
where we go and what we do. The
authority for rest is written in our
own nerves, and the Bible idea Of
the Sabbath is one-seventh of the
time, whether we worship Satur-
day, Sunday or Monday.
"some of you are here who went
to church this morning and had no
where else to go this afternoon.
Others of you would not go to SER
vice this afternoon if you could,
and with the temptations of city
life are better here in your bodies,
minds and hearts than in some
other places I could mention.
"But whether we believe in Sun
day baseball or not let us show a
dispositions to live and let live.
We are free moral agents to make
our own shalls and nots. Faith is
greater bat the greatest of all is
charity.
Success to the home team, and
may they never be guilty Of the
objectionable sin Of losing a Sun
day game"
