ELTON'S UMP WAS TOO MUCH
FOR WELSH BASE BALL NINE

The Welsh baseball boys motored
over to Elton Sunday, where they
crossed bats with the Elton nine, the
game going to Elton by score OF
10 to 9 in ten innings.
According to the Welsh boys their
not being accustomed to playing In
the prairie on a diamond at least ~
feet smaller than the official size,
was one of the causes of their losing,
the maiG cause however being the UNI
fair decision of the umpire, who was
mere youth, and not having a mind
of his own depended upon the Elton
pitcher to dictate his decisions. OF
course the pitcher, being one OF the
participants, naturally favored his
side. He did so to such an extent
that most of the spectators complain
ed openly,
1--WE are not kicking however, but
merely wish to explain the cause Of
our not coming out on top, as ve are
trying to keep those interested In the
team informed as to what we are do
ing.
eve also wish to thank those who
lent us encouragement by going over
to Elton to witness the game, and feel
sure that although we lost, the game
was really ours.
"We will play the Lake Arthur
nine at Sportsman Park Sunday, July
End, and ask that every one come out
and boost for US.
Lake Arthur has one of the strong
est mines in Southwest Louisiana and
good game is promised. The sdmls-

furniture. The chair is copy Of an
antique episcopal cathedra. The
elaborate carvings represent scenes in
Venice, though the small figures are
from those by Donatello, at Padua'
The custom is that each General
Conference shall use table and
chair presented to it and then at the
close of the session sell the articles
to the highest bidder and give the
proceeds to the donor. This desk
and chair brought $4,000 this year
and was sent to the Boys Industrial
Institute School of Venice, whence it
came. 1t was a very interesting
sight to see them sold. Mr.. F. A.
AFTER, a wealthy delegate from
Cleveland, Ohio, bought them.
The enthusiasm of the General
Conference reached very high
pitch by the announcement that I'M
der the will of Mrs. D. Willis James,
a bequest of $75O,OO0 had been made
for the fund being raised for the
care of retired and aged Methodist
Episcopal clergymen. This brings
the Permanent Fund up to $6,0OO,-
900 and the end is not yet.
The following are some striking
facts from the Episcopal address:
An increase in membership of be-
tween 100000 and 100000 has been
attained for each of the four years
since the last General Conference.
Union of the Methodist Episcopal
Church and the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, and of such other
bodies as may share the common
Methodist faith and experience is
approved
Warning is issued against any
movement tending to create a union
of church and state
All forms of child labor are Sc
verely condemned and the Heating
Owen bill is commended.
Sabbath dissertation, Mormonism
and the saloon are severely con-
demned. Methodist clergy who give
the rite of marriage for divorced
persons contrary to the law of the
church shall be guilty of maladmin.
istration and shall be subject to trial
by his Annual Conference.
The Methodist Church now pos.
sesses forty-three hospitals in this
country, twelve in India and twenty

INVENTION MUST COME TO AID
OF THE AUTOMOBILE
INDUSTRY

The Society of Automobile Engi-
neers is discussing increased price Of
gasoline, E. S. Foljambe recommend
ing an award of prizes for the most
efficient devices for adapting kerosene
or some less volatile fuel than gas
oline to the usese of gasoline engines.
The New York World rightly says
that prize in the way of wealth be-
yond the dreams of avarice will re-
ward the engineer who invents a sue
|cessful device of the kind, and gives
the following interesting and illumi-
mating figures;
In the ten-year period between 1906
and 1915 the production of crude Pc
troleum in the United States more
than doubled, increasing from 1884,
1850 barrels to 290,312,535. Yet,
while the amount of the refined prod
uct used for Illuminating purposes re-
NAMED practically stationary, the
amount of naphtha, benzine and paso-
line distilled increased eightfold, ris-
ing from 32,756,694 gallons to 251,-
1894. AS gallon of oil yields but
fractional part in gasoline, the ur-
gency of the problem is evident. The
government process for "trebling the
output of gasoline" from given
amount of petroleum has been at the
disposal of refines for year without
improving matters, and with approx
imately 100000 motor vehicles in use
by the end of the current year and
more to come, it is obviously high
time for invention to come to the aid
OF the automobile industry with a new
fuel if its progress is not to be seri-
ously impeded.-Pensacola Journal.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvoR PROGRESS

Will Lakeland be represented at

Just a month from today till we
meet in DeLand. Are you getting a
good delegation ready? Winter Park

next?
The DeLand News" says, that for
the recent Baby Week" of the Chill
dren's Home Society, school children
in the University gave $4,000. All
together the scholars in Florida
schools contributed about one thous-
and dollars. We believe that the
Lord will bless the efforts of these
children in far larger excess than the
larger amounts contributed by older
folks.
\ A new worker in Florida field work
is r. M. Adkins, located at Miami, but
who will tour the state some for an
educational plan. He is already try
ing to organize one new society and
wishes to be introduced via our In
PRODUCTION department to Endeavorers
or the South Eastern district. His ad-
dress is Box 327, Miami.
DR.. j. h. Smell, who was a medical
missionary in China, says The ks
simmee Gazette" is spending some
time at Winter Park. Hope the En-
deavorers there, at Orlando, and
nearby locations will get him to speak
for them when in Florida. We can
never learn too much of missions.
