FAST BALL GAME
At OR0hDCD
Baxter Springs Team Shows Up
Well and Loses a Close
Game by a Single
Error

The Baxter ball team lost the game
at 0ronOgO yesterday to the home
team, but it was a close contest, the
score being 2 to 0. Not a run was
made until the 9th inning, when Or
onogo took advantage Of an error to
score. Baxter lost two or three
chances to score by having runners
thrown out at the plate by the per-
feet work Of Nthe orOnOgO felders.
Shields, pitching for the Baxter boys,
struck out II men and allowed only
2 hits off his delivery These coupled
with the error were sufficient to put
the two runs over for 0rOnogo in the
eighth.
Hodly, for oronogo, allowed 9 hits
but was steady in the pinches, only
walking one man. His support, how
ever, is all that saved him. Baxter
secured 6 hits off his delivery, had 3
men thrown out at the plate.
Following is the score by innings.

GERMAN "DEADER" THAN
A DEAD LANGUAGE?

Lawrence, June 9.-Is German to be
"deader" than dead language in the
United States? The 278 high schools
that taught German before the war
no longer teach it, and nine of them
have substituted Latin, dead Ian
guage, for the tongue of the Hun. At
the University of Kansas thirteen in
structors were teaching German to
625 students the year America enter
ed the war. Today 21s instructors are
teaching German to 120 students
instructor gives only half time to the
subject. These figures are from in
formation obtained by Prof. E. F.
Engcl in an effort to gage the future
demand for instruction in German
which is now largely for students Of
medicine and different scientific sub
jects.
Professor Engel sent questiohnaires
to 100 representative high schools in
the state and seventy-five replied as
to what they had substituted for Ger
man. In addition to the nine high
schools that substituted Latin, two
schools augmented their courses in
English to take the place of Hunnese
fOfty-one put in French, and sixteen
substituted Spanish, in some cases
high schools offering both French and
Spanish where only German was Of
fered previously.

States making some sort Of an engage

The revised covenant, Mr.. Johnson
continued, far from preserving the
Monroe doctrine, would mean It's de-
struction.
Il Is rare indeed, he asserted, "that
any speech Is made in favar Of the
league which does not bitterly condem
Americans who think Of their own
country first. For the first time in
our history the jealous guarding Of
our own, the love Of our traditions

our land and our liberty have become
venial aims.

VOCATIONAL SCHOOL
AT RIvERT

The Vocational Training School at
Riverton started off well Wed. night
with fifty enrolled. All of the men
joined the classes in Shop Mathe-
MATES in which subject four groups
have been organized. The classes and
hours have been accommodated to
take care of the men on all shifts and
are under the direction of E. S. Mason
of the Baxter Springs Mining School.
The course will be adapted to the
needs of the men in the plant and
most of the time will be spent on the
mathematical problems which the men
meet in their work. Mr.. Carter of
Joplin, the General Superintendent Of
the Empire District Power Co. was
present and expressed himself as be-
ing we'll pleased with the way in which
the men are taking hold Of the thing.
qhe classes will be held in the River
ton Club house which is being fitted
up to accommodate them. The first
class will start next Monday the 9th
ers following on through the week,
meeting at different times Of the day.
After the school has been well start
ed other courses will be introduced in
electricity, gas engines or other
branches in which the men are inter-
ested The school promises to sur
pass that of Baxter Springs in size,
if not in variety of courses.

IABLO-DAP
SECRET PACT
CALIFORNIAN SAYS DELE
GATES DARE NOT AMEND
LEAGUE CONSTITUTION.
.'Open Covenants Openly Ar
rived At Are Now a By-WOrd
and a joke" johnson Says
in Speech

Washington, June GA charge that
old world powers, led by Great Brit
ian and Japan, are attempting, thru
the league OF nations, to trap the
United States into perpetually guar
anteeing their integrity, was made In
the senate today by Senator Johnson,
Republican, Of California.
The league proposal, declared the
senator, has behind it NO serious pur-
pose of maintaining peace but is in
stead q proposal to maintain auto
cratic power. He asserted the Paris
delegates dared not make good their
peace professions by writing into the
. league covenant q provision to leave
Spr declarations to a popular vote Of
re people affected.
Il Speaks Two Hours
In a speech of more than two hours,
Senator Johnson charged also that the
provision dealing with the Monroe
doctrine was inserted in the revised
covenant of the league for the purpose
Of making the doctrine invalid; that
the American delegates in Paris had
written ''the blacklist page in all our
history" by approving the transfer OF
Shantung to Japan; and that in the
background Of the whole peace nego-
tiations lurked the sinister influence of
the Anglo-Japanese offensive and de-
fensive alliance.
The California senator was not in
corrupted during his address and after
its conclusion his resolution asking
for the complete text of the peace
treaty was temporarily laid aside. 1t
probably will not come up again until
Wednesday.
at is not league of nations to
prevent war;" he asserted. In its very
creation, il has been stripped Of every
idealistic purpose it ever had. 1t con-
tains within itself the germs Of many
wars, and worse than that, it rivets,
as in the Shantung decision, the chains
Of tyranny upon millions of people
and cements for all time unjust and
wicked annexations. 1t is a great
world economic trust, wherein a few
len. sitting in secret, may control the
ecSnomic destinies of peoples. 1t is
not league of peoples, nor does it
anywhere concern itself with peoples.
Farther From People
aInstead of coming closer to those
most concerned, the men and women
for whom the government should ex-
list, the league goes step farther
from them. The representatives OF
ruling powers sit far away. in secret.
II those who wrote this document
really wanted to prevent war; they
would have permitted the men and wo-
men who must bear the burdens Of |
war to determine by their votes
whether or not there should be war.

tect power"
Urging adoption of his resolution
asking the state department for the
oft-quoted differences of President
Wilson regardind "open diplomacy"
"Open covenants openly arrived at"
continued the senator are now a by
word and a joke. The mention brings
but a cynical smile.

But" Mueller said. I'VE haven

Why" he said. I'VE have got the
material for that particular work over
here. we can fix this"
And he sent over for the material
and in few hours they had the pipes
all repaired.
The law of faith will develope thee.
and in few hours they had the pipes
all repaired
You say luck" Oh. no. that isn't
the name I have for 1t. Not at all.
He kept a journal. He made u
record OF things he prayed for, and
he made a record of the things that
he received through prayer. He'd
say: Saturday. April Il. / began to
pray for such sthing."
Then when God gave him the an
swer he'd record over here Just the
day he received II. Then he'd say:
What began to pray for April a."
and he'd check that off and transfer
it over to the other book.
Now. all the way through he never
asked anybody for a dollar. He ask
ed the Lord. He had thousands upon
thousands Of orphans for sixty years,
and over eight millions of dollars.
He published book in which ne
told of Gods answer to his prayers.
Some of his enemies sneered at him
and said: That's the reason he gets
money: he appeals to the sympathy of
the people through his book!"
So Mueller withdrew the book from
and God sent him three
times as much money during that
year as he did before he published
the book.
So God takes great delight ir slap
ping some OF these ginks in the face!
Now. listen. He supported one hun
dred missionaries In addition TO his
three thousand orphans, and when he
was seventy years old he took a mis-
sionary journey and all the expenses
to run the school while he was absent

faith grew so strong that ne could
trust God and he could go away and
say:

month; take care of the children

He said at first he thought that
they couldn't be taken care OF unless
he was there. but he found out that
they could be taken care OF when he
was away. too. So that's how his
faith grew.

Mueller wrote back and said: ~ am

But he didn't starve. No. No. No,
Not at ALL
Now, he said he had had no special
gift of faith. He said he had the
grain of mustard seed faith. He said
his faith grew so strong that he could
ask God for s25 or $50 with the as
surance he'd get it just as well as II
he asked for five or ten dollars when

Faith Is the assurance that the
