Last Sunday witnessed the formal
opening Of Association Park to the
public with a base ball game between
the Lamar association team and the
Fort Lyon sailors. The fence was
not completed around the park and
the grand stands were not yet con-
structed and work was still needed
on the diamond but still the condi-
ton showed rapid progress is being
made and it is hoped to finish most
Of it this week. A fair sized crowd
turned out Sunday to see the game

the start the fielders on both teams

common this early In the season in
the big leagues ~ well as small and
in the first two innings seven Of the

teams frightened up and played good
ball for the remaining five innings.

Massachusetts has the best license
law in the world, according to "the
(liquor) trade"
Recently the Lieutenant governor of
Massachusetts headed a committee
who investigated the liquor traffic
in that state and found that year it
cost the state directly $1O,OOO,OOO to
say nothing Of the indirect expenses.
The same year the total sum for al!
licenses was $3,406, O00-about one
third the expense. Massachusetts is
doing business on this basis and its
bonded indebtedness is increasing

is one thing to care for baby in the
collie period, when you can slam the
yelling creature down in its cradle
and feel you're doing what's right
and another thing to spend year
chasing baby from coal hole to attic
seeing that it doesn't, in its rascally
innocence, commit suicide or get
slaughtered accidentally.
If the college girl is to get but one
year to wrestle with baby, clearly the
year should be specified. Even then
the chances of complete qualification
for motherhood are heavily against
her. What baby is one year, baby
isn't the next year, and the fact that
many professional mothers, so to
speak, don't ever realize this, is what
gives US such an almighty varied as
sortment of half-raised babies.
Withal, we have no desire to throw
cold water on this college proposition.
The average college girl wastes time
and energy on much more foolish
propositions than babies and babies
sure are educational Any girl who'll
give year to any baby, at any stage,
will know more AID forget lot that
she thought was knowledge.

NOW ALL GET TOGETHER, GIRLS,
AND QUALIFY!

ton to round out the college career
of the girl by giving her the care of |
a baby for one year and then adding
to her graduation degree @. M"
meaning Qualified Mother If there is
any girl, college or otherwise, who |
can qualify as a mother by caring
for any live baby one year, she ought |
to have the degree %. H."-Qualifed
for Heaven.
One year caring for baby? Huh? |
What year? That's the point.
If it is baby's first year, there isn't |
such an awful strain on qualification. |
Has baby the collie? Rub its tummy, |
dose it with peppermint, lay it down
and let it yell. Is pin puncturing |
baby? Pull out the pin. Is baby yell |
ing for no apparent reason? Yelling |
is the only exercise it has. Let it yell. |
Does baby's food fail to bring it |
along? Change the food. All this is |
easy and hardly worth place on the |
college curriculum, although qualify
ing.
But take the second year: Baby |
begins to walk, talk and consume
spoon victuals. Baby is brainy enough |
to make you get us and carry or rock
him or her under false pretense of
pin or colo. Baby is able to reach
the. CRATE fire and sit down on it.
Baby is developing powers of inves-
tigation and can pull the hot coffee
pot upon himself, or herself, without
aid. Baby can scale the bureau and
fall off it in a twinkling Baby can
find the medicine cabinet and drink
the creosote or the shoe box and eat
the backing. We can readily see that
any girl who properly cares for
baby in its second year adds polish to
her college education.

fourth or fifth year. The more the

We have been concerned too much

neglected 10 uproOt those awful,
fiendlsh, demoniacal passions that
burst forth at such a time as this?
or have we In our endeavor to in
Culcate Righteousness in our personal
dealing with our brother of our own
land neglected altogether TO eradicate
the beast out Of men which such a
crisis as this reveals as only slumber-

For the thousands Of men we saw
bowling IN all the cities Of Europe
were not men any longer. They had
become beasts. The beast could even
be seen in their eyes. They hOwled
for only three things; drink, women
and blood Of their brothers. Perhaps
there has got to be a wholly new
presentation Of Christianity before
these things can be stopped Perhaps
We have got really TO teach what
Christ Himself taught, namely, that
love Of all Christians for each other,
all men OF good will for one another,
must transcend race, nationality and
every other bond. We have mover
dared preach this, although 1t was
continually on Christs lips lie even
went further and said it must trans
cend family ties.
1t would be as impossible for one
Christian TO kill another did We
really believe in Christ and accept

which we think every American OF
