A PRACTICAL SERMON j
Rev. A. G. Dixon breaches a Ser.
mon Especially Suited to Every
\ Dav ,ife

/ Lay Lie. Il
| Last Sunday evening Rev. A. G.
Dixon was to have preached a
special sermon to the members of
the local lodge of Pythians, but ow-
ing to the inclement weather it was
called off for the time being. How
lever, the editor with several other
Pythians attended services there
anyway.
MIR. Dixon's theme was content
ment in life. looking on the bright
side of things. Paul said he. had
learned to be contented whatever
his lot in life, and we would do well
to follow his example. Keep up a
cheerful disposition at all times, it
does no good to worry. The world
likes cheerful man; 90 up the
street with sour face and you will
meet sour people; a smiling face will
greet smiling people. Often we ask
ourselves what makes the people SO
Indifferent. never once stopping and
taking a look into the mirror which
Will reflect our own sour disposition
and show us what the real trouble
is-our own selves most of the time.
1t costs nothing to be cheerful and
happy aud what a blessing such a
man is to the world We are too
selfish, too prone to turn a cold
shoulder to our acquaintance when
kind word would make both feel
so much better. Let US cultivate
the habit of being contented, of
dispensing sunshine as we journey
thru life which is short at the longest
Let us never be satisfied but at no
time dissatisfied" This conveys in
part the discourse of Bro Dixon to
his congregation Sunday evening
which was thoroughly enjoyed by
all.

The alarming increase year
ly noted in the number Of
school children suffering with
eye strain, is proof enough
that the S t a t e recognition
and regulation of this impor-
tant profession, Optometry,
has come none too soon.
In 1907 the New York World
commenting editorially upon the
estimate of the school committee
that in New York City alone 1885,
900 children had detected eyesight.
All the more reason why steps
should be taken to remedy this
physical defect in so vast an army
army of little citizens. Classes will
often turn a stupid child into a
bright and healthy one. To learn
with certainty whether or not such
need exists it is only necessary to
consult a competent Optometrist.

Manager Of the Cleveland Maps
Resolves to Refrain From

The season OF 1913 gave Joe Birm-

the extent that he was suspended tor

According to the plant OF Mr.
Weeghman, the lunch counter king,
nobody has been putting up any
dough but him. and therein lies the
tale Of how near the Federal League
came to going under. says the New
York World Just two things saved
it. Mr. Weeghman was about TO run
cut when the Baltimore club uncov-
cred enough big leaguors under con-
tract TO make him falter and then
came the punch. II would have land
ed most anybody in the Federal or
any other outlaw organization. Ban
Johnson and Colonel Hedges offered
to let him buy out the ST. Louis
Browns.
For downright generosity and mag
nanimity that proposition by Ban
Johnson makes Henry Ford look like
tightwad Il is admitted that these
promoters of the new league don't
know much about baseball, but that
was the last straw Can you imagine
stalking ANYBODY to the St Louis
Browns. especially man you wanted
for a friend?
Only one thing could beat t. Mr..
Schuyler Britton didn't get there in
time 20 throw IN the Cardinals.
So it has come to pass that the
Federal League is still with us and
MIR. Gilmore declares Il will stick. The
war is on and. with the shadow OF
the Browns behind him. Mr. Weegh-
man will fight TO the last ditch. Yes,
and they plan to have every club as
strong as its American or National
or International League rival All
right, let 'er rip!
We now know just what Ban john
son meant "A few weeks ago when he
bade the Federal Leaguers such a
cordial welcome. He wanted them to
come right in and take the Browns.
Umpire Billy Evans said that when
the time came for fighting the lion
Hon Ban B. would be on the job. and
we must apologize for having been
doubtful as to the terrible blow he
could deal.
Despite the latest decision of the
Federal League to continue It's fight
there is persistent rumor going the
rounds that Mr. Gilmore and his as
sociates will never be able TO start
the season IL Is known that the
showing made by the several man
ayers at tn Chicago meeting was dis
appointing and the newly signed
players are beginning TO get nervous
Gossip has IL that the wise old owls
Tinker, Brown, Knabe and others took
chance that would enable them &c

league pulled through and. on the
