THE DANGER OE
BOLSHEVISM

There is no greater danger to the
peace and happiness of the world
than Bolshevism. This dangerous
and pernlcious doctrine is spread
ing it's tentacles, octopus like, a.
round the world and is destroying
liberty and happiness.
Bolshevism cries out against the
religion OF Jesus Christ and against
, our most sacred institutions. 1t pro-
claims religion force and marriage
mockery. 1t is the most tyranni-
cal of all governments in the world
today: it Furnishes by death those
who refuse to subscribe to its tents
Any party or doctrine that pro-
claims religion force and super
stition is striking at and attempt
ing to destroy the strongest and
most influential factor for the up
building os the human race. II the
religion of Jesus Christ is false,
then our educational structure is
false and our civilization is false,
ad fllcemcl long ais lines
is . myth.
No government an exist unless
F, these institutions are kept sacred
and inviolate. The fact that Bolshe-
viem proclaims against these sacred
institutions Is sufficient evidence
that this pernicious doctrine is an
nemy to mankind and free govern
ment. We cannot condem too sew
ereIy or use a weapon too harsh to
Ii rht this devilish doctrine. The
English language is inadequate for
US to express our feeling against
such an awful Whctrine. To express
our opinion mildly against such
stuff, we would rather suffer our
right arm sawn off with dull saw
close to the shoulder rather than
support or even sit POSITIVELY by and
not stir ourselves against such dan
gerovs doctrine.
1t is time, however for all loyal
men and women to bestir themselves
against this octopus and put it
down before 1T gets too large. The
pro opaganda that its leaders are car
rying on is frightful and surpris-
ing. 1t is right among US, and we
must keep our eyes open, and fight
it to the death.

Reds and White Sox Both
Maintain Their Leads

New York, Sep.. 7.-Although
neither the Cincinnati Nationals nor
the Chicago Americans set fast
pace at the head of their respective
leagues last week, nothing like a
winning streak was forthcoming
from any of their near contenders
which would bring them nearer the
leaders. Even by maintaining a
500 average in games won and>lost
during the remaining three and a
half weeks of the season, the Reds
and White Sox would have little to
fear for the safety of their top posi-
ton. Including today's contest, Gin
cannati has lead of 81 games over
New York, while Chicago is 7a
games in front of Cleveland, with
Detroit a half game behind the
Indians.

Bee Juniors

! Although the Holmes Juniors
champions of Division 2, were vic
torious over the Woodman of the
World, pennant winners of Division
/, of the Omaha Bee Junior Base
ball association, yesterday morning
at Fontenelle park in the first round
for the championship, by score of
II to 9, the game will be replayed
on account of the Holmes using
player Jimmie Walsh.
Walsh was allowed the Juniors as
a utility player and was not allowed
to play only in the event the regu-
lars were injured. According to the
protest filed by the Woodman of
the World team, Players Williford,
Ferber, and Ravitz were on the
bench and Walsh started the game.
The game will probably be re-
played Wednesday evening, although
it will be announced definitely in the
sport page of the Bee Tuesday.
The contest was a smuggling match
and both teams used pair of hurl-
ers. Smith started for the lodgemen
but gave way to Moore third round,
while Pat Cahill was knocked out
of the box in the sixth.
According to Manager Williford,
both himself and Ferber were unable
to play on account of injuries, but
Ravitz was alright. Should the
Holmes Juniors play Walsh in the
twilight game and the other three
players are able to play, the game
will be forfeited to the lodgemen
in the event the Juniors win.
The score: RHE.

MRS. Despair
GLAD She TOOK
FRIENDS ADVICE
Calesburg Woman Gains 30
: Pounds After Taking
Tanlac.

"After failing for eight long
years to find a medicine or treat
ment that would relieve my suffer-
ing, / tried Tanlac and the result is
my troubles have been completely
overcome and l have gained 30
pounds in weight" said Mrs. Alice
Despair who lives at 113 Brooks
street, Galesburg, the other day.
~ was so completely rundown
when | commenced taking Tanlac,"
continued Mrs. Despair, 81 was
hardly able to get around. NV
nerves were in terrible condition
and never got good nights sleep.
I also suffered from stomach
trouble so bad that everything I ate
would sour and cause me to be per-
fectly miserable for hours at time.
| was bilious nearly all the time
and would often have raging head
aches. Sometimes these spells of
headache would last for week at
time. | was so weak and run
down that l couldn't do any work
around the house at all. The diff
ferent medicines and treatments
didn't do me any good at all, and
just had to suffer from year to
year without getting any relief.
II was very much discouraged
over my condition, for 1 really
thought that I would never find
anything that would overcome nv
troubles. tJust when I was feeling
my worst, friend of mine came
to see me and told me about Tan
lac, and advised me to give it a
trial. finally decided to take her
advice, and it was the best move I
ever made in my life, for COM
menced to improve in a short time
after | began taking this wonderful
medicine. l have just finished nv
sixth bottle and I can truthfully
say that never had any better
health in my life. All that ner.
vousness has left me and / slees
fine every night. There was time
when / actually dreaded to see meal
time come, bat I can hardly wait for
it now, for have a splendid ap-
petite and everything I eat agrees
with me all right. Those awful
headaches have left me, and have
gotten back all my strength and
energy. / can easily do all nv
homework now. / never tire Of
telling people what Tanlac has done
for me and am glad to have this
