PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
Alfred Martin, Minister

We find this promise in the
Bible: Their soul shall be as a
watered garden" Here is a medi-
tation for the summer. A picture
of growth, productiveness, fresh
ness, variety, beauty, life and
fragrance. A promise of a boun-
teous harvest, even a hundredfold.
The unfailing test of life is con-
tanned in the words of Jesus
Eye shall know them by their
fruits" This is the true standard
of Judgment.
At our state and county fairs
only specimen fruit is exhibited,
the choicest of the land. What is
the quality of our lives ? Are we
as beautiful as a watered garden !?
AS productive as the harvest
field. Nature sets before us a
possible ideal. We can be what
God would have us be.

New York, May 31.-Fred Mitch
ell and his Cubs are now taking
their turn.
The race in the National league
20 far has been a little game of
taking turns holding the top rung.
. Brooklyn, Boston, Cincinnati,
Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Chi
caso have all had their fingers
around the top of the ladder.
The instruction Of the Cubs was
the only bit. Of color in the major
league races last week.
With Alexander and Vaughn put
ting most OF the dynamite under
the Reds throne, the Bruins hop
ped from fourth to first place ON
the strength Of six straight wins.
The whole Heydler family shut
fed around q bit with the upward
move Of the Mitchell tribe. Pitts
burgh won, only two out Of six
games and fell from the top to the
fourth hole. The Braves and the
Giants moved up one hole and the
cards fell two. Cravath's Phils are
last in contentment.
The Yanks and the Senators NOV
ed up one notch in the American
league and the White Sox, losing
I'VE out Of eight games, fell back
into fifth place.
The Browns, Athletics and the
Tigers seem perfectly satisfied

Cubs made enough runs to win the
fourth and final game Of the ST.

completing = run Of eight straight
victories. The score was s to 3.
1t was George Tyler's first con-
secutive triumph OF the year, al.
though he pitched no better base
ball and allowed no more runs
than in his only previous nine in-s
ming performance this season
against New York. The Cubs found
Jessie Haines' stuff quite soft a
spots and gave their own veteran
finger easy going most Of the way
in addition to perfect support. Rob
ertson was the chief slugger, his
bat driving in four Of the six Cub
runs. 81
Mitchell's pupils landed on ~,

chapter, with the aid of the only
error in the game and cinched their
lead with two earned tallies in tie
