Baptist News and Notes.

We did not hear the report of the
Bible School Sunday morning, but
there was a goodly number present
when the classes assembled in the au-
ditorium after recitation of the les
son. Again there were new mem
bers present.
At the morning service the hand OF
fellowship was extended to another
new member of the church. 1t was
plain to be seen that the members OF
the church enjoyed the occasion very
much.
We were glad to see a number OF
friends who are not members of our
church. Come again; you will always
receive a hearty welcome.

many, as the details of the crime
were so altogether out of harmony
with normal human nature. 1t is not
yet understandable how young men
as industrious as these had proved
themselves would be possessed of a
desire to go back to their boyhood
home to rob and plumber from their
fathers old friends, and yet appar-
emily be such perfect gentlemen.

Writer'S of foot ball in increasing
numbers have begun to serve regular
ly as officials. This is bad not be-
cause the writer's are not qualified
for their task-they are-but because
the tendency of institutions not in

already. toward engaging these men
with the hope of influencing favor
able publicity.
AS to the officials. it would strike
the writer as desirable that they
either meet together or participate
in correspondence schools so that they
will show some uEanimity in decisions
and interpretations. AS the situation
now sta nds. no ore can say what ac-
ton will be taken in specific cases on
the gridiron. For instance. in some
games the writer has seen clipping
penalized; in others. not. He has seen
forward pass dec c:sions showing wide
variations: in general it has seemed
as though the rule book--which real

be exercised as personal opinion
might dictate.
