THE POPE AND PEACE

a headline in the daily papers say
that the pope praises the United
States for her peace efforts" But all
the while this government goes on
building bigger guns and bigger war
ships If the pope, his cardinals,
bishops. priests. and followers, the
bishops. preachers and followers of
all other denominations, were to set
their faces as flint against all war eff
forts and movements, and should
glOrify peace with the same manner
OF devotion as they glorify war, peace
would obtain in all lands and there
would be no more wars. Cannons
would be turned into sewing and
reaping machines and rifles and
swords into pruning hooks, and the
millions paid out for battleships and
ornaments would be turned into the
building of national highways and
everybody would reap the benefits
thereof. Hide it as you may. do what
YOU please. but the followers OF the
Prince OF Peace" are largely re-
sponsible for the war spirit that dom
mates and permeates and obtains
throughout all Christian lands.

SUNDAY BASEBALL

This paper is opposed to baseball
playing on Sunday because perhaps
from prejudice formed from early
environments, but it would advise
that Jacksonville contingent who are
false pretense of giving athletic
exhibitions" to invite the Rev. J. ".
Larkin, of Poughkeepsie, n. Y, down
to witness the game and preach them
a sermon on Religion and Baseball. "
Just the other day he preached a
sermon on that subject from a plat
form placed in right field just be-
yond first base.
Men, women and children stood
in the hot sun for an hour and heard
him preach sermon on practical re-
ligion to fit the needs of the masses.
The sermon advertised as a feature
of the game. attracted the most in
telligent class of people ever seen at
Sunday ball game in Poughkeepsie.
He prefaced his sermon with the
remark that the novel sight filled him
with enthusiasm. and that he esteem
ed the privilege extended to him of
addressing the people While they
were innocently enjoying the Sab
bath day.
My heart is filled with love and
JOY and gratitude toward YOU" he
said. IN the enjoyment of this sane
and sensible recreation your hearts
will, l am sure. be open TO the few
words l am about 10 address TO YOU
on a subject which is of deep inter
est to all Of us"
One minute after the clergyman
had retired the umpire shouted:
Play ball" and the game was on.
Editor Claude L'Engle, of Dixie.
tells in the last issue OF his paper
why he favors Sunday baseball He
assigns the following reasons:
"Wheneyer anybody asks me about
Sunday baseball, I always say l am
for it.
Il am for it because I believe it will
empty poker rooms, where young
men gather Sunday afternoons. l did
a little gathering of this kind myself,
in my earlier days, which makes me
know so much about il.
Il am for it because it will reduce
the number of schooners that young,
middle-aged and old men conduct
across the bar at Pablo Beach, where
the saloons are open for the most
business Sunday afternoon.
Il am for it because it will bring
all kinds of people out in the open,
where they can expand their lungs
throw back their heads and laugh and
forget the note that is coming due to-
morrow.
Il am for it because it is the only
outdoor sport which a large number
of people can enjoy that has not had
the gambling feature attached.
Il am for it because l am convinced
that there is less harm in Sunday
baseball than in reading the home
sections of Sunday newspapers and
the Governeur Morris and Robert w
Chambers brand of exotic problem
stories in the current magazines.
In short. | am for it because the
good it does to men far overbalances
the evil effect that may follow laxity
in observances of the Sabbath. And
in this practicable world, peopled by
imperfect beings, we have got to use
a system of averages in our conduct,
which affects our regeneration.
From the foregoing it may be
gathered that I believe in Sunday
