higher than themselves in position makes them envious
if God Almighty honors than He honors
them.
The Apostle Paul dealt with that thing in his letter to
the Church at Corin and he pointed out the folly of
being envious and jealous. One is jealous of
another womans dress. Another woman is envous of
another woman's hat, ones house, something

Envy, Envy!! You it everywhere. There is very
little the true genuine Divine love in the hearts of men

The Word of God says, "Love is the fulfilling of the
law" The Bible teaches what love will do and what it
will not do If loves man, he will be envious

that man. and his destruction simply because he is
meeting with greater favor and blessings from God than he

Continued from last week.
PROOF OF GODS LOVE

My appeal you to love God based upon the fact that
proof could ask that God loves you than the giving OF
His Only Begotten Son to suffer and die that might ve
for without sacrifice of Jesus the Christ without His resur
recon from the dead you yet in your sins, and you
are without hope.
There is no better attested fact in history than the
ministry life, words and works of Jesus the Christ of
Nazareth.
How do you know that George Washington lived? You
him. You met him. You believe he lived
do You believe he President of the United States
believe that Why? because it is well authenticated fact
believe Jesus of Nazareth lived worked, toed, suf-
fered and died for several reasons being that it just
as well attested as that George Washington lived
Some people say they will not believe in anything they
do not Do you believe you have any brains? Oaugh
ter) The story is told of nde who remarked, 90
not believe in anything cannot see His friend said, MY
friend you believe you any brans He said eyes,
Sir" His friend replied, "How do you know you never
saw them?"
1t is foolish for people say that they do not believe
in anything they do not They believe in great many
things they do not 1t matter of history that Jesus
of Nazareth lived Not only that but it is fact that Jesus
the Christ of Nazareth today followed by millions
of people, and Napoleon Bonaparte said of himself and
Alexander the Great eve have founded empires but how
By force Jesus of Nazareth has founded empire by love-
and millions would die for Him."
That testimony stands true today What greater proof
ten you want of Gods love than that He His Only
Begotten Son to suffer and to die for you?
John said again.
Behold what manner of love the Father hath be-
slowed upon u.s. that should be called the of God
1t doth not yet appear what shall be: but we
know that when He shall appear, shall be like Him.
for we shall see Him as he is"

MANS LOVE FOR MAN

There is great deal written in Gods Word about
mans love for man. What wicked world this Isl There

God teaches that he that hateth his brother what?

You know that story the Eleventh Chapter of John how
they loved Jesus and how each of them when they met
Him, said Lord Thou hads been here my brother need

He went along with them He wrought of the greatest
miracles there for Lazarus had been dead four days already
Yet Jesus sad Dd not tell you if you would only be-
lieve" He uttered the words, Lazarus forth"
Lazarus came FORTH There in that home Simon who
had been healed of his eprosy Lazarus who had been
surreced from the dead and the Son of God in Whom
Life for God had given to Him to have life in Himself

TEAM OF GIRLS TO
PLAY BASEBALL
Boston Females to Meet Brattleboro
Mems Team at Island Park Next
Tuesday Afternoon at 5.

The Boston Girls Baseball club will
play Brattleboro men s team at Island
Park next Tuesday afternoon at 3
o clock, and in securing this aggrega-
ton Manager Fox has an attraction is
likely to draw large crowd. The club
is composed of a fine lot of bah players,
and each girl is clever in her position
As o rule girl cannot throw ball
unless it be under hand, but those who
see this team play will see some wonder
full throwing overland. They play with
plenty of life and are surprisingly fast
on the bases. They have lost one game
so far this season, and tha1 was against
regular league players. When difficult
play l. to be made they use strategy i'll
fooling the opposing players.
The team carries left handed
pitcher, Miss Bernice Sullivan, and to
see her wind up puts one in mind of
Nean Gregg of the Red Sox team. She
is very graceful in the box, also PLAYS
third base. Another star pitcher is Miss
Edith Dennison, right handler who
holds the record for strikeouts for n
girl, as she famed eight in one game
recently. Miss Helen Grace, the catcher,
possesses nerve behind the bat, and she
is a hard hitter as well.
Alice Rivard is a fine shortstop and
can run the bases the best of all Mary
Denehay, who plays first base, has this
position covered so strongly that she
will not bulge for any of the runners.
Helen O'Rourke is good left fielder
and seldom misses any line drives or
high flies. The second baseman is Alice
Hogan, who is not over four feet and
half in height, and to see her reach
for them Is pleasure. Helen Dcnehay
who covers third base, can shoot them
over to first in great fashion and is
speedy in her delivery. Miss Alice Os-
teriie. who plays the right garden, can
heli IN great style and is an accurate
thrOwer to bases.
AS all the girls are dressed in
boomers this gives them plenty of lee
way, as they are not hampered with
long skirts. They are on edge all the
time
