Allies Threatened in Balkans.

London, Nov. 19.-Both the military
and diplomatic situation of the allies
in the Balkans are disquieting, if
not critical, a fact which doubtless
led to the visit of the British prime
minister, Mr.. Asquith, David Lloyd
George and A. J. Balfour to Paris
with the French cabinet and General
'Joffre, the French commander in

The main Serbian army under Cen

the north, is now encompassed On

The art of catching a thrown ball
In the arms began TO pass with the
development of tossing spirals. AS
the ball is now thrown it spins rap
idly upon its long axis, and is best
caught in the hands as basket ball is
caught. This is the surest way.
In attempting to catch it in the
arms the hard spinning ball strikes
the chest or stomach, sometimes with
vicious force, and in any event is
liable to bound out from the fingers
and thus be missed.
In 1906, when the forward pass was
first taken up, the old end-over-end
method of passing was in vogue, and
the ball, thus tumbling, was only to
be caught in the arms, as are most
of the punts today.
Not every player, even today, can
throw the swift, straight spirals;
there is a knack about it. Beginners
achieve it by pressing their fingers

THE CHURCH AS
ASOC|ALC CENTER
A Broader Sphere for Rellglon-New
Field for the Rural Church.
BY Peter Radford
LECTURER National Farmers' Union

Lecturer National Farmers Union
The social duty of the rural church
is as much a part of it's obligations
as its spiritual side. In expressing its
social interest, the modern rural
church does not hesitate to claim that
it is expressing a true religious in.
stinct and the old-time idea that the
social instincts should be starved
while the spiritual nature was over
fed with solid theological food, is fast
giving way to a broader i~nterpreta-
ton of the functions of true religion.
We take our place in the succession
of those who have sought to make the
world a fit habitation for the children
of man when we seek to study and
understand the social duty of the
rural church. The true christian re-
ligion is essentially social-its tenets
of faith being love and brotherhood
and fellowship. While following after
righteousness, the church must chal-
lenge and seek to reform that social
order in which moral life is ex-
pressed. While cherishing ideals of
service, the rural church which It.
tains the fullest measure of success
is that which enriches as many lives
as it can touch, and in no way can
the church come in as close contact
with its members as through the
avenue of social functions.
The country town and the rural
community need a social center. The
church need offer no apology for its
ambition to fill this need in the com
munity, If an understanding of its
mission brings this purpose into clear
consciousness. The structure of a
rural community is exceedingly com
pick; it contains many social groups,
each of which has it's own center, but
there are many localities which have
but one church and although such
a church cannot command the inter
est of all the people. it is relieved
from the embarrassment of religiously
divided communities.
