WAGNER MEN KEEPING
HOOS|ER HEELS WARM
Battle Creek Just a Pace Be-
hind KoehIer Band in Race
for First Pennant.

Local fans are preparing to sit in
at a real contest next Sunday after
noon when Charley Wagner's Crick-
cts will open the home stay here
against the Hoosiers. Wagner has
been keeping the heels of the Koehler
outfit warm for the past 10 days and
the Hoosiers are but pace ahead of
him. For one day the Crickets held
the lead but were headed again when
they lest the double-header 10 Flint
Sunday afternoon, which showed them
into second place. just a game behind
the HOosiers.
The Battle Greek engagement at
Springbrook Will continue for four
DAYS and the outcome of the series
is expected to be the principal fac
tor IN deciding the ownership OF the
pennant for the first half of the sea-
son. The CriCkets Monday took the
first game of the fOur-day series at
Saginaw and on next Friday and Sat
urday will hop Eddie Wheeler's Autos
at Flint where the HOosiers are now
romping. This means that the Crick-
cts will be up against a tougher bill
the latter part of the week than that
facing the HOosiers. Flint is battling
all the time PLAYING a brand of base
ball that means frequent victories.
The HOosiers are slated to meet the
cellar club. Jackson at the prison
town on Friday and Saturday before
returning home and should add a
couple more points TO their lead.
The Koehlsrs have been Out-clOut-
ing their opponents ever since leav-
ing the local lot and although they
lost four OF the six games AT Bay
City they appear % be i'm trim for the
final dash 10 the tape. The long c1d
of the series at Flint Will mean that
the Benders can retain the lead even
though Battle Greek make "a clean
sweep at Saginaw. Thus when the
Crickets arrive here on the coming
sabbath the series viii he for the top
hole and some scrappy ball games can
be anticipated

RENDERING
TO CAESAR

A minister of this city last Sunday
morning in making his announcements
for the week called attention to the
fact that all citizens should pay their
taxes. He referred to certain places
in the scripture where Christians are
commanded to render to all their dues
tribute to whom tribute is due,
honor to whom honor is due. The
speaker said the law makes it obllga-
tory upon all suffragans to be square
upon the books during the next few
days if they desired to cast votes at
the next election.
This may seem to be new depar-
ture, but it is as old as the north
star. 1t is interesting to note how
positive was the great apostle in re-
gard to rendering to Caesar the things
that are Caesars. Nero, one Of the
most disso2ute and bloody despots
who ever dfsgraced throne, was En-
peror of Rome at the time Paul in
sisted that all should pay tribute. He
makes no reference whatever to the
sensual conditions which at that time
were as cancer gnawing the vltals
Of the great world empire. He mere
~ called attention to a duty which
all owe the flag under which they live.
The Apostle made the obligation still
more binding when he asserted that
tax-gatherers are ministers ordain-
cd by God for this purpose, and
warns his hearers Of the penalty for
resisting the powers that be.
We live IN Il day when the church
sees much in the body polite it would
like to change. Issues are being
sprung necessarily. land attempts
made to Dust those in authority and
place others in their stead. Paul
was doubtless well posted on the pro-
fiigacy Of the Romans, and ne must
have known all concerning Nero. But
not one word of censure is uttered.
He merely enjoins upon all the neces-
sity of rendering tribute to whom tri-
butte is due. and in his mastery man
ner kept the infant church out OF
politics.

| PROGRESS
|oF THE WAR.

The peace talk, which emanated
from the Vatican, Switzerland and
Scandinavia and has been aroused b5
the proposed questions by the So.
cialist in the Reichstag and the Pope
address in the secret conslstor3
evokes no echo in London. The Brit
ish people are quite prepared to be-
lieve that Austria-Hungary IS tired
Of war and that the people Of Ger
many, with the knowledge OF the
heavy losses suffered at the different
fronts, may be anxious to see an end
to it.
They, therefore, are more inter-
ested in news Of the joint war coun
ell of all the Allies, which has beer
formed and which held its first meet
ing in Paris yesterday under the
presidency Of the French commando
in-chief, General Joffre, and hop'
from this that the war is to be pro
secuted more theoretically and tha'
efforts are to be made to clear up thu
diplomats difficulties which face thu
quadruple entente in the Balkans.
Where and when the Allies vii
attempt the slide which they eX-
pect to start and turn the tide, onl!
the conferees know, and they are mo-
likely to take the public into thei-
confidence. There is evidence, however
of some change in the Balkans, wher
the British and French have beaten
off Bulgarian attacks, and, despite
rumors that withdrawal to Salonik
owing to the Greek attitude, is con
templated. more troops are beinf
landed. There are signs that tn
Greek situation is righting itself, ant
from Athens report tina
a r1odus vivendi has been arrived al
with regard to military question
which were awaiting settlement an1
that Greek officers have gone to Sal
oniki to bring it into force.
