lace, Veteran of Veterans, Shows
Trend of the Times.

Major league magnates and mana
gers are showing a strong preference
this year for ball players with a
past"
In ordinary times the big league
pilots pay little attention to pill toss
ers who have seesawed back and forth
from the minors to the big show. They
usually break their necks bidding for
the "phenoms" who spring up in the
tall and uncut sticks, and they have
paid some fabulous prices for this class
of players.
But 1917 is no ordinary year. The
majors have been slow to sign young
sters and seemingly eager to jump at
the chance Of getting players who
have had big league experience, but
who, because of age or some minor
defects, have failed to stick on big
time.
The recent signing Of Bobby Wall
lace by the Cardinals Is a most vivid
example of this tendency. Bobby

TO MOTHER CHURCH
Deep Religious Instinct Characterizes
the Peasants Of Both Russia
and Poland. .-

A deep religious instinct seems to be
Unborn with the Slav peasants, both
Russian and Pole. The only difference
Is the form of his religion, for prach-
cally all the Poles are adherents Of the
Church of Rome. With both races re-
ligion and patriotism are closely inter-
twined. The Slav temperament seems
to be particularly susceptible to relig-
ious impressions, and devotion to the
church reaches a degree for which it IS
difficult to find analogies in any other
part of modern Europe. In the daily
life Of the Polish peasant, the name OF
Christ and the Virgin will be heard re-
peatedly. He would not think Of living
in a house that had not been blessed
by a priest. A manufacturer would
find it difficult to keep his hands if the
factory had not been blessed. A thea
ter would died from lack of patronage
if the priestly blessing had been denied
the building. The Pole is probably the
mast faithful of all the adherents of
the Church Of Rome.-The Christian
Herald.

CITY PRACTICALLY WIPED OUT
Tarnopol Has Twice Been cente- OF
Fierce Fighting Between Russian
and German Forces.

Tarnopol, one Of the pivotal points
evacuated by the Russians during their
recent retreat on the Galician front, is
the subject of the following war geo.
graphy bulletin issued by the National
Geographic society:
! "Before the Russians swept into
the town in the course of their first
offensive through Galicia in 1914, Tar3
nopol had a population of $4,000, the
Poles and Jews being about equally
divided. Today there is no means OF
determining its size, but it's corn mill
ing and brewing industries have prac7
tically disappeared, and it no longer
carries on the thriving trade in honey;
agricultural products and in horses,
for which it was once famous.
"Tarnopol lies on the left bank Of
the River Sereth, 80 miles inside the
Austrian boundary, on the railway line
from Odessa to Lemberg, the former
being 400 miles to the southeast and
the latter 81 miles by rail to the
northwest. The River Podhorce forms
the Russo-Austrian boundary east OF
Tarnopol, the Austrian station on the
right bank Of the stream being Podow-
loczyska. The Russian. village on the
left bank is WolocZyska. -
mo one who values a salubrious
climate would ever select Tarnopol
as a place Of abode, for the extremes
of temperature are very severe. Like
all Galicia, it is exposed to the north
ern and northeastern winds in winter,
but is cut off by the Carpathians from
warm, southerly winds. AS a re-
suit the winters are very trying; with
an abundance of snow; the springs
are very rainy, the summers short and
hot. Only the autumns show any,
:steadiness' of weather. The mean
annual temperature is less than L de-
grees above freezing"

Man is an omniverous being. We
