A Genuine Ball Game

From what can be gathered of the
game at Vollmer Sunday she was a real
ball game, she sure was. 1t was one of
the fastest games ever played on the
prairie Dewey Addison, the husky
Ferdinand twirler, was in the box for
the All Stars and went the entire
route. At bat he was demon, slug
cling the pill to the four corners of the
lot. Addison is real ball player, as
lime will tell. Wade of the IloVollmer
club was behind the bat and caught a
steady game Grangeville was repre-
scented on the All-Stars club by Eli
Ingram, who shone brilliantly AZ third
and who came with his usual three bag
ger with two base runners ahead. All
this year Ingram has upset the dope 10y
hitting hard in the pinches-stiuging
the ball for extra bases when runners
are ready to come over the pan--a habit
that wins ball games always.
In the absence of box score n detail
ed story of the game is passed up, hut
fans who saw it class it az the greatest
game ever pulled off in these parts. The
All Stars, they say, worked like piece
of well-oiled well regulated machinery,
and though pressed at times. were never
headed 1t was bang-up league ball all
the way, with the All Stars clearly SUI
perior.
Prairie Lads Past Bunch
In passing it may be said that this
victory stamps the Prairie league as a
circuit of exceptionally fast hall clubs
and these added laurels ri decisive
win over the Lewiston club in three
game series prove the superiority and
class of the ball tossers from the prairie
country. The achievement. at Follmcr
is a fitting climax to one of the most
successful seasons of baeball the prairie
has ever known.
The lineup of the All Stars in Sun
days game follows:
Wade, Ito, catcher.
Addison, Ferdinand, pitcher.
Medved, Nezperce, shortstOp.
Schlnech, Nezperce, first base.
Stellmon, Nezperce, second base.
Ingram, Grangeville, third base.
Thomas Nezperce, left field.
Litchfeld, 10, center field.
Wade, 10, right field.

Many new fires broke out on the Nez-
perez National forest during the last
I week Old fires remain unextinguished,
although one big fire, in the Elk City
district has spent its fury, and is no
longer spreading. Other fires, however,
are spreading through the timbered
areas, and though hundreds of men are
attempting to check them, they are
fiercely raging on.
-Four hundred men now are fighting
! fires in the Nezperce National forest, ac-
cording to Supervisor S. V. Fullaway.
Six men from offices of other national
forests have been sent to- Grangeville
during the emergency, and five foremen
have been transferred to the Nezperce
National forest by the forest service to
assist in fighting the fires.
SITUATION Is CRITICAL
The situation is pronounced critical
| Whole mountain sides are a seething
mass of flames, and hundreds of acres
of valuable timber are being wiped out
daily. Forest officials have given up
hope of extinguishing the fires, before
heavy rains set in. Efforts are being
made to retard progress of the fires,
and to extinguish smaller blazes, but
once a fire gains Roadway, it is con-
coded, in view of the extraordinary dry
condition of the debris in the forest,
that putting out the fire by human effort
is impossible.
9 MILES FROM GRANGEvILLE
On LIGHTNING creek. along the South
Fork of the Clearwater river, fire broke
out Friday, and swept over Black Tail
ridge, burning more than 1900 acres of
timber. This fire is only nine miles
from Grangeville on an air line. Billows
of smoke, resembling huge clouds, on
Saturday and Sunday arose from the
mountain side, as the flames rapidly ate
their way up the ridge, and Monday the
smoke had settled over Grangeville so
densely that the mountain, two miles
miles south of the city, was invisible.
1t was impossible for one to see dis
lance of more than six or eight blocks.
Fifty-five men are fighting this fire,
and are declared by the forest office
to have the situation well in hand.
The fire, which several weeks ago
broke into the Nezperce forest from the
Selway forest, in the vincinity of Mea
dow creek, beyond Red River Hot
Springs, has spread to Mallerd creek.
The whole country in that district is
said to be ablaze.

A MANUAL OF CONDUCT

The Bible is not only the authorita-
tive instructor nreligion and morals
IT is manual Of good manners as
well. 1t puts people in their proper
relations, and helps them TO maintain
their self-respect. The innate Kindness
which is characteristic Of most of the
Jewish people comes from the defer
ence which has been paid these teach
ings. Where the latter are neglected
the kindness is pretty sure to be lack
ing. We are often told that the Bible
is stern and rigid book of discip-
line. 1t is anything but that. 1t takes
due account of human nature and Its
frailties. and therefore does not enact
the impossible. No man or woman
who follows the precepts of the Bible
can be a snob or an arrogant upstnrt.
u slanderer or bully. Our sages be-
lieved in the discipline which alone
can assure good conduct. and they also
believed in the essential equality of the
people which would insure ike treat
ment 10 all. That is why the Jews
were one, even in the days when tile
l:ings ruled in Israel and Judah. i'll
herently democratic people. There
were periods of backsliding. but the
sages and prophets never hesitated to
speak out plainly and call the delin-
Guents to account. That was another
reason why Jewish domestic and-com-
mercial life was fashioned on whole
some lines thruout the long period of
Jewish history.-Jewish Exponent.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION.

We read somewhere the other day
that more poverty is caused by sick
ness than there is sickness caused by
poverty. Money is not the solution
the remedy lies in education There
is every truth in this assertion. Apply
it how you will, and this truth leaps
to the surface. In religion we dis
cover that hysteria and emotion Of tile
wrong sort breed fanaticism and
bigotry. ignorance and superstition
which are one and all irreligion. We
make our proud boast about progress
in religious education, but we have ad-
7irc, but little along the road. We
ha, long. long way to travel If we
are to attain any degree of ultimate
perfection. We must not be too sure
of ourselves. We must not imagine
that because we have n well organic
ed institution we are safe. Instit;-
tions in themselves are dead things
1t is we-the living beings within
them. who give life to them.-M. \ a.

The Union of American Hebrew C3n-

triumph of American and Allied ideals,
bitter prosecutions of Jews are oc-
cirring in backward European coun-
tries, the Union is eager to see jew

tionally recognized. An unusual OPP
portunity for upholding the Jewish
cause presents itself IN the coming
meeting of the Assembly and Council
of the League of Nations, scheduled
to take place at Washington in oc-
tober. 1919. Accordingly, the exccu-

FOUR YEARS RELIGIOUS HIGH
SCHOOL DETACHMENT TO BE
FOLLOWED By NORMAL SCHOOL
COURSE. WORK OF RABBI MANN

John Fiske was one of the first To
point out the ethical Significance OF
the prolonged period of infancy In the
biological development of the race. Iy
analogy, then, 1t il indeed splendid
sign of the times when the religious
education of children has been and is
being extended far beyond the age
which was customary Il generation Or
even decade ago. There was time
when it was difficult to keep children
to the age of confirmation. THAT Is
now taken for granted. And most
congregations are now able tc keep
the children in the Religious school
at least year or two after confirEa'
tiOn.
One of the finest and most inspir-
ing examples of what can he done
has been the complete and unq'inlified
success of the four years Religious
High School course in connection with
Congregation Mishkan Israel of New
Haven, Conn, under the leadership oi
Rabbi Louis l.. Mann. The High school
department of the Religious School be-
gins after confirmation, the age OF the
children being about fifteen i'll the
first year. Four years ago. twelve
children were confirmed this year
twelve children pardon, please,
twelve young men and women about
nineteen years of age graduated from
the High School Department. The
young men are students ct Yale Uni
versity, some of them JuniorS--and all
of the graduates have been attending
Religious School regularly and coll
scientiously since the age of six. From
six to nineteen years of age!

have so enjoyed their work that they
want 10 continue. How incredible tliis

to meet their request. The Normal
School win have two instructors, one
of them Rabbi Mann, and the other,
one of the Professors of the Bitlicni
Department of Yale University. Aitsii-
kan Israel will in the future call Ia
its teaching force only those who are
graduates both of the High School and
Normal school of the Congregation
The Normal School will hold the young
men and women from the age Of nine
teen to twenty-one. The course has
now been so arranged that there is Il
carefully graded curriculum for jews
and Jcwesses from the age of six tt
