The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1914-01-30

Philadelphia Jack O'Brien has re-
entered the ring and is hot on the trail
of the new crop of white hopes that
have sprung up. He has an idea that
he can whip Gunboat Smith, who re-
Gently whipped Arthur Pelky in San
Francisco.
Philadelphia Jack says he can hit as
hard as in his best days and that he
is rapidly regaining his speed.
Well, Jack, come along and prove
the truth of your bold words-if you
can.
How about starting off with Johnny
Kilbane or Abe Attell?

Tender Gums.

; Persons with tender gums in
clined to bleed no matter how
carefully they are brushed, will
find the following powder effec-
tive in cleaning the teeth and
excellent for heating the gums:
. One ounce of precipitated chalk.
one-half ounce of powdered bo-
; raX. One-fourth ounce of powder
ed myrrh, onefourth ounce OF
. powdered orriS root. Choose
brush with soft bristles and do
. not use it too briSkly. BE care
full to brush the teeth up and
. down instead of across and use
an antiseptic mouth wash of a
! healing nature before retiring at
: night.

third, taking the place Of Zim and
EVers when either of those stars
were out Of the game. The shift
from one position to the other placed
him under a natural handicap, but he
gave satisfaction in spite of all OBJ
stacles.
Art would remain at second base
just long enough to get the short
throw perfected when Evers would
come back to the game. Then he
would have to go over to third and
be forced to regauge his throwing
sights. When he had the aim pat he
would be taken from the game and
benched. Naturally this was detri-
mental to the youngster and worked
against his becoming bowling star.
He was not in the game enough
consecutive games to get his eye
properly focused on the ball while
at bat, but nevertheless put in few
punches that were timely and bene-
fetal to Cub prospects. He was ex-
tremely dangerous to the opposition
with men on bases and retained his
uC1N VIC uuuC1 IuC ulOOI II y11S ShSuIIl
stances.
1t is safe wager that, played reg
ularly, Phelan will develop into a
steady third baseman and a depend
able hitter. In the fielding line he will
never be a Bill Bradley or Jimmy Col
Inns, but what he lacks in filashiness
he makes up in earnestness and de-
termination.
PheIan is our pet admiration
among the Cubs, recruits or veter-
ans, because he lets nothing inter
fere with his ball playing. With the
Cubs sundered during the early
stages of last season by feuds, Phelan
refused to be drawn in. He is a bet
ter ball player than politician.
There is nothing on which to base
shortstop predictions. Heating and

year, is steadier than either of the
other candidates for the shortstop
Job and right now seems to have the
call.
He has an encouraging batting
streak in the Association, which is
only few points shy of big league
caliber. Bronkie has been in the
main tent once before, failing with
Cleveland, but he is a better bal
player than on his other trial.
MollWitz fancies himself as a first
baseman, but there is little chance for
such workman on the team as long
as Vic Safer retains the use of all his
arms, legs and eyes.
A vacancy has been created in the
outfield by the detection Of Ward
Miller, but there is material enough
for all purposes. The leading candi-
date, of course, is Jimmy Johnston,
the best base stealer Of the Pacific
Coast League, who had a futile trial
last spring with the White SoX. Will
bur Good will also have something to
say about appOrtioning the job. He
is veteran and fast on the bases.
Cy Williams, the long boy from
NOtre Dame, who broke up several
games when he was first put to work
last summer, is a problem that O'Day
can spend some time on with profit
In his first half dozen games Will
liams smashed over dozen hits and
eXtra-base knocks were plentiful
among the total Then he wilted be-
fore the major pitching. He began
to strike out with regularity and was
finally benched.
A low curve inside was his un-
doing. Try as he might Cy could not
connect with the puzzler and he was
made to look foolish. He should not
be cast aside for this failing. One
Ty Cobb, who is something of bat
ter, also had trouble with a low curve
when he first broke into the big

GRANT CHURCHES
FOR TWO CITIES
United Presbyterians, in Dis
trict Meeting, Act on
Application.

| The endorsement of the Rock IS
land presbytery was given to the prop
osition of buying a lot and building a
church edifice for the housing of the
branch Sunday school of the United
! Presbyterian church in this city at
Twenty-fourth street and Eighteenth
avenue and at Candee's grove in Mo-
line, action being taken at the fall
meeting held at Sunbeam, where Rev.
r. G. Pinkerton is pastor.
Carl Z. Pearson of Moline has been
| working during the summer establish
| ing branch schools in the three cities
and his work has met with much sue
cess, so that the questions of ade-
quate housing has become an import
ant one. The presbytery recommend
ed to the board of church extension
that funds be provided for this pur-
pose as soon as advisable. Members
of the board have expressed their in
terest in the matter and will come to
the city Oct. to personally investi-
gate the field and report at once. 1t
is probable that work will be begun
on church this fall, as the need is
urgent.
Rev. w. L. McCleery of North Hen
derson was chosen moderator of the
presbytery and the resignation of Rev.
j. A Barnes as clerk was accepted
Carl Z. Pearson of Moline presented
his first trial sermon before the pres
bytery and received the approval of
that body and its recommendation that
he be accepted as a second year stu
dent in theology at the Pittsburgh
seminary. Oscar Pearson of Moline,
his brother, was graduated from Mon
mouth college last spring and was re-
ceived under the care of the presby-
terry as first year student in theology
at the seminary. Campbell Bailey of
Coal Valley, who has finished his sec
ond year at the theological school,
was granted license as a probationer
and advanced to third year student
! at Pittsburgh. Mr.. Bailey preached
the opening sermon of the presbytery
Monday evening, taking the place of.
the moderator.
The pastors of the three cities asked
the endorsement of the presbytery in
the matter of procuring a lady mis-
Sionary for work in the three cities
and to assist in carrying on the work
laid down by Mr.. Pearson, who has
returned TO his studies at Pittsburgh
+. B. McKown as financial agent
and clerk of the presbytery gave re-
showing that much has been done for
missionary purposes throughout the
church district.
