famed on a pitch that was at least
two feet over his head and far out
side the plate. He looked foolish.
Mitchell probably knew that Buck is
impatient when batting left-handed
and trapped him with the altitude
heave.
If Buck had sacrificed there would
have been a chance for two runs to
score on a single, instead of which
Schalk bumped into double play,
busting the best chance the Sox had
all afternoon.
Maybe you can't see where two
runs would have done any good with
the Browns three ahead. Well, it
would have put the Sox one behind
and it is a lot easier to play for one
run than three. The fact that the
Browns made five more runs later is
not an argument against the sacri-
fee. No one. knew they were going
to make those extra scores and it is
certain the Sox would have fought
harder to prevent them if they had
thought there was a chance to win.
Why the Sox are in fifth place, with
a percentage of .523, while the
Browns are wallowing along just
above the Yanks, is hard to under
stand, from the showing of the two
teams in the present series. StoVa1's
men have shown more fight, more
ginger, greater ability on defense and
attack and much speedier work on
the bases.
CaIlahan's gang can't play ball be-
fore the home crowd. On the last
Eastern trip the Sox broke even. The
Browns won only three games. Then
the two teams care here and ST.
Louis cops three out Of five.
The Sox didn't lose because of
bad pitching in four of the games,
and even yesterday the boxwork
wasn't as bad as the box score shows.

double, a run scoring. A fast fielder
would have captured the pill or dirt
led his uniform diving for it.
LANCE only lasted against three
men and was lifted in favor Of White.
Doc was a bear until the eighth. Then
hits, errors and a general feeling of
Encouragement combined to give the
Browns four runs.
Hal Chase stung three singles, half
the total of the White Sox clouting.
He made a regular Chase play in the
first when he captured grOunder
and tossed Pratt out at the plate. 1t
would have been an impossible play
for any other fielder.
Stova1 is apparently peeved at the
reports that he is to be supplanted
as manager of the Browns. He has
geared his team to high pitch and
is doing wonderful work himself In
the five games here he has soaked
ten hits in 10 times at bat. Pratt has
combed nine hits in the same num-
Der Of efforts. Stovan also seems to
have dug up a good youngster in
John Lavans, the University of Mich
igan shortstop. 1t is not customary
to talk a whole lot about players on
the other teams, but this recruit is
worth quite some conversation.
In five games LaVans has handled
35 chances at short without the
semblance of an error. Several of
the blows he stopped were ticketed
for hits. Three hits in five games
doesn't make the rah rah lad look
like a cIouter, but consider how he
got them before passing judgment.
He went hitless in the first three
battles, coming through with his
first single in the sixth inning of
Mondays second game. This gave
him confidence and yesterday he
busted a pair Of hits, each driving in
a run. That shows improvement.

Moses the sending of the twelve spies.
These apparently wete divided under
two leaders, Caleb and Joshua. One
party went the length of the land, and
returned in forty days; the others took
shorter journey and returned sooner.
The spies were cautious men and
gave truthful report of the land, de-
,laring that its cities had nigh walls

They reported also that they had seen

scribed as an evil report because they
presented the matter from the view

with the report made by Caleb and
Joshua, which was styled a good re-

The spies really should have consid-
cred themselves as a committee of
ways and means for entering Canaan,
rather than for deciding whether it was
possible to enter. The possibilities
were already determined by Gods
promise; hence Joshua and Caleb left
these out of account. IL God could de-
liver them from the Egyptians and the
Amalekites He surely could fulfil His
promise to bring them into Canaan.
Did God Encourage War;
In studying this lesson, many are
perplexed. They say, 1t seems unrea-
sonable to believe that God gave such
a message to Moses and the Israelites.
Contrast this with the Sgriptural dec
Iaration that God will make wlsrs to
cease unto the ends of th1 earth"
Agnostics inquire. Where is the justice
of commissioning the Israelites to steal
the lands of the Canaanites. and to ex-
terminate utterly all the people?
To understand the Bible, we must
view 1t from Its own standpoint, and
not from that Of our creeds formulated
IN the darker days. nor from that of
our own imperfect reasoning The Bi-
Bile is beautiful, consistent, Godlike
Only when viewed in Its own light.
We must remember that the Bible
antagonizes the theories of our creeds,
which tell us that those slaughtered
Canaanites went straight to an eter-
nifty Of torture because they did not
know the true God and Jesus christ,
the Savior. The Bible tells us that all

tence When they die, they are not
alive anywhere. They are dead. They
are suffering the penalty that God pro-
nounced, Dying, thou shalt die"
1t matters not, therefore, in what
way we die, or very much whether our
experiences be longer or shorter. In
the case of the Canaanites, God de-
clared that their iniquity had come to
the full. That is. God determined that
they were merely cumbering the earth.
