May Shorten Schedules

It is possible that the playing schedules
in the American and National League pen
nant winners will he shortened one or two
days to give the worlds series contenders
a chance TO rest up for the big event. The
New York Yankees are willing to wind up
their season next Saturday and play
double header with the White SoX instead
Of single game on Monday. This would
give Chicago two extra days TO rehearse
for the opening battle. and rest at this
stage of the game will help considerably.
As soon as the Giants clinched the flag
yesterday negotiations were opened be-
tween the Giants and the Philies to switch
the final contest scheduled for next Thurs
day to Wednesday, October 3. as the sec
ond part of a double-header. New York has
a tough schedule, as it lasts until the final
day of the season. and this change will be
the only chance the players will have to
take a rest. If the games were played the

Lutherin Churches
Go Back Together,

While we, down in this neck Of
the woods, do not hear much Of the
Lutheran church, it is a fact that it
is a denomination Of considerable
strength in the United States The
Lutherans Of this country split into
three separate bodies at the time Of
our civil war in the early sixties,
because Of doctrinal and other diff
ferences and now the plan is to
merge the three who have been
keeping house apart into the Unit
ed Lutheran Church Of America
and the final steps to that end will
be taken at a general convention to
be held in November Of next year
This step has been taken while the
general synod Of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church was in session In
Chicago last week.

STOCK OWNERS ASK
Ed TO COOPERATE,

1t is gratifying to notice how
apidly the thinking people OF the
tate are coming to the conclusion
hat no attempt should be made 70
hold a constitutional convention
during the tendency Of the war.
Many of these were strong advo-
Gates Of the movement until the
United States entered the war, and
President Wilson called upon all
people to dedicate their energies to
the winning Of the war.
In time Of great calamity IKE
war there can be no division Of the
people; there can be no admitting
Of side issues; there must be only
one object and one purpose in vlew'
| the co-ordinating Of oil energies 70
one common cause.
The mind of the people to-day IS
upon the general outcome Of the
war. Fathers. mothers, brothers
and sisters are thinking Of those
who must cross the sea to Tight
They are not thinking Of what kind
Of a tax law. judicial law. or any
lother laws for the government OF
I this state. They have more serious
Il thoughts at the present time than
r|how our present constitution should
be amended.
J Suppose they did have the time
! and inclination to think aiona this
H.. - -'..v know what they want
does the general !.
I what amendment should be mau~
to the constitution which would fiji
the needs when the war is overy i
would be just as reasonable Tor
I man to give an order for a suit Q
clothes, or a lady give an order 10
y a new fall hat, both to be worn nv
years from now. Neither OF then
J. know what the styles will be, bu
n they do know that the styles WI
y change; likewise is this true wit
q gard to our constitution. We q
not know what conditions will be 9
ID the close Of the war; certainly the
le will be changed.
The Federal government is raj
n ing a $1O.OOO,OOoOOO fund for 7
OF first year Of the war. None can e
n how long the war will last; variol
as estimates are given. 1t is reason
BILE to expect that the expenditur
MS will increase, thereby placing 10;
lily upon the people which must be CO
ried. This will seriously affect 0
a constitution, and it does seem tn
even though it we're not necessa
ky for our whole effort to be consecrt
on ed towards winning the war,
'ss. would be good business policy
zen wait until the close Of the war
hold constitutional convention.
lct- Should constitutional conve
ton be held, it is doubtful If q s
Die amendment proposed would
ratified by the people. With
Ter condition Of the state treasury c
