Presbyterian Church

1t might seem either a waste OF
time or a reflection on intelligence
to preach to a usual Sunday morning
audience on Honesty. But honesty
is very high thing and we may not
have given it half its meaning yet
the Prophets question "Wilt man
rob God?" doubtless struck tho people
Of his race as near SANDER. Yet he
answered they will and do and their
sons preserved the word as inspired
scriptives. He may we'll turn to 1t
again 500 that is the theme of the
sermon for next Sunday morning.
The Sunday School at 10 a. m. is
very busy place. Most Of the seats
are occupied but we have room and
a welcome for all who may come,

are lining up for the early express
business and getting ready TO handle

ter recently issued they urge upon

Years of study on their part as to
how to handle the express shipments

sible for the grower they ask that

ard apple box.

Will Meet
Fruit Growers
Business Men Prompt to Answer De-
fly of Fruit Growers-Will Meet
Them on The Ball Diamond Tues
day Afternoon, May 18th at Four P.
To the Editor of Enterprise:

Will you kindly advise those pre-
sumptious fruit growers living NORTH
OF the city OF Payette and who toI
TWO years have been seeking large
gobs of trouble in the shape of a
ball game with the business men OF
Payette, that their desired shall be
gratified and on the nineteenth day
OF Nay at four = clock p. M. if they
willsSresent themselves at the ball
park in this city the business men
wiz proceed to demonstrate to them
that as ball players Fruit growers
are not bowling success and that
their knowledge of the national game
is indeed limited.
For two years the challenge has
been regularly coming from these
fruit growers always containing an
insinuation that the business men
could not play ball. Business cares
in the past have prevented our ac-
cepting the challenge but it has this
year been the unanimous decision on
the business interest that we declare
a holiday at four p. m. May 18th, clos
all places of business banks stores,
etc. dismiss the schools, repair to the
ball park where we shall administer
to these presumptious fruit growers
the rebuke they so justly merit.

Mothers Day at the Church Of God

Mothers Day at the Church of God.
Mothers day was sittingly observ'
ed at the Church of God. In the
morning the pastor preached on "Our
Guardian Angels" in such an impress
sive way that one could almost feel
the Angels lowering around them. In
the evening the Mothers services
were observd. AS the audience en-
tered they were met at the door by z
little girls and each one was given
a pin and a white flower-the en-
blem of Motherhood. The yourg lacy
ushes escorted them to their seats,
A choir consisting mostly of young
ladies' sang some beautiful and ap
|propriate songs. After which Rev
Boyd gave fine sermon on Mothers
He spoke in his usual impressive and
touching way of the mothers CT to-
day as well as the mothors of genera

Last Sunday witnessed one of the
classiest games that has ever beer
played on the Payette grounds. The
Weiser team came up in fine shape
prepared to defeat US, but as the
score will show, they failed to deliver
the goods. They couldn't connect
with the pill that King delivered to
them and made but one hit in the
entire game. Anyone who failed to
see the game Sunday, certainly, miss
ed the treat of a lifetime. 1t GER
tainly looked good to see King with
that characteristic grin of his, con-
front the Weiser stickers, and fan
them out, one, two, three. If it had
not been for that one scratch hit,
we could credit King with a ro-hit
game.
The first three innings were play
ed in quick time, neither team max
ing hit In the fourth, Higgins got
to first on a pass ball but that was
all there was to it. Then for Pay
cite Arnspiker came up to the bat for
a SINCE, King followed with a two-bag
ger, Ensign attempted to sacrifice
Arnspiker in but Spike refused to
leave third and Ensign was caught
out at first. Shafer came to the bat
and singled bringing Spike home.
This was the first and only score
made during the entire game
Things commenced to lock interest
ing in the ninth when Higgins got
to second ON an error. Chapman
came up to the bat and on his first
strike Higgins tried to steal third.
Nobody seems to thoroughly under
stand that play but Higgins was GER
ainly caught out. Weiser immediate
ly commenced to howl The Jumps,
Murphy and DR.. Conant neither one
seemed anxious to make decision.
DR.. Conant was base umpire and
should have made the decision but
evidently was afraid to do it. Oh, 1t
certainly was some rag chewing. At
last it was decided that Higgins
should go back to second Chapman
finished his time at bat and struck
out making the necessary three outs.
Outside of that rag chewing and the
wind, we had an ideal game.

UNDER AUSPICES OF Y. M. c. A

| UNDER AUSPICES Or Y. M. y. a
The most famous dream of modern
times was that Of John Bunyan, a
poor preacher, who, thrown into jail
at Bedford, England, 25o years ago OF
account of his religious zeal, saw in
vision pilgrim toiling along Ife's
rough highway. In this dream the
wanderer was searching for the hap
piness that comes with perfect hy-
| ing and good thoughts, but the way
was long, leading as it did from the
City of Destruction to the City OF
Eeverlasting Life by way OF the Riy-
er of Death. A presentation of this
journey, which was set down in book
form by the famous prisoner, will be
given at the Emma Theatre, Tuesday
night, May 10, under the auspices of
the Y. M. c. A.
People of all civilized lands have
read this story, "The Pilgrims Pro-
gress." 1t has been translated into
more languages than any other book
save the Bibe, and, in spite of the
hustle of modern life it continues to
be read and enjoyed. But now, that
it's story is told by films, thousands
of peope, who have not had time to
read the book, will know of Chris
tian's struggle for righteousness, for
one is able to get the complete work
by seeing the pictures made by the
Ambrosio Company, of Torino, Italy,
and hearing the lecture by the Hon.
Elmre Vail, who explains the various
scenes and events that are thrown
upon the screen This lecturer is well
known throughout the United States,
and he has spen much time in pre-
pairing for the presentation of Pill
grims Progress.
Alexander Salvini, one of ltaly's
best known actors, plays the part of
Christian, and Eleanor Sernanti por-
trays Chistiana. Allacco Giovanni
takes the part of John Bunyan in
the prologue, which pictures the life
of the author. Bunyan wasted his
substance in having a so-called. good
time" Suddenly realizing that his
family was in need and that his dis
sapation was the cause, he became
a convert. The authorities placed him
in Jail to cool his growing zeal. 1t
was here he dreamed the dream and
saw the vision of the Pilgrims
Progress.
The pictures were shown recently
in Portland, Tacoma, Seattle and Spo-
kane. Over $4,000 spectators were
present at the rs performances given
in these cities.
