The German orders were for the

am not writing in any bitter way,
but simply stating facts which

Now it is up to you to make a stand
for right training and to insist on
those intrusted with the development
of good to do exactly what they
preach mean to cut out the hy-
pOcrisy. It is an easy matter to find
them out They betray themselves

LABOR UNREST. - Labor unrest
is not a result of the high wages paid
by ammunition manufacturers as
Mr.. Armour states, but is a result of
our innermost higher intelligence
endeavoring to hammer into some of
our thick skulls that we are wander
ing away from the laws of nature in
our enforced methods of living and
working.
At this season more than any
other does not our intelligence re-
volt against being stuck in a base
ment, a machine shop or Office or
herded in a clothing factory the live
long day? Does not the voice of God
within each of us sigh for the Oppor-
tunity to make ourselves UngOdly
dirty digging, planting and working
in the soil with our heads protected
from the suns rays, but our body abb
sOrbing it's life-giving energies?
Does not the scripture, observation
and experience tell us that above all
meats that of the pig is Unclean and
not fit for food? When one comes
to the realization Of these things,
thinks them over, can we not call
many of our private and social trOu-
bles to mind. And are we not COM

first. Break off from your old moor
ings and associate with honest souls.
Birds Of a feather flock together"
Is it not time that honest people
should flock together? When they
do the dishonest man will have to do
right or find another place to live.
We are getting very tired of hypo-
critics, and the time is coming when
it will be a disgrace to belong to any
modern church.
If any one desires my services to
make a start in their home or else
where, let me know. I am equal to
three meetings every Sunday, with
out money or price. There is a tide
int the affairs of men, which when
taken at the flood leads on to for
tune" It is f1OOd-time nOw.-Frank

BAsEBALL-sPOR OF ALL SORTS BOXING

Wednesday the whole blamed town
turned out to see RowIand's boys
trim the home town team, 9 to 0.
Parades, bands and a general good
time ran through the whole day. Fa-
Der was given a gold watch and flow
ers. Rowland and COmiskey got a
good share of the cheering. A movie
man took few hundred feet of film
of the affair. The sun was out in all
its glory and when the Sox left for
home at midnight everybody was
happy.
Sox fans, and particularly those
who earn their admission fee by toll
ing in the loop, are tickled over the
announcement that the SOx, through
a flag flying from the Board of Trade
bldg, are going to inform their
downtown admirers whether a game
will be played or not each day they
are home.
A flag will fly from the building
every day the SOx have a home game
scheduled. A white flag with red
ball in the center means the game
will be played; solid blue flag means
the game will be postponed.
Pres. comiskey says he may utiI-
ize other public buildings for the
