 BIBLE STUDY IN GERMAN SCHOOLS

Berlin, June 25.-Catho1ic news papers watching with growing con- cern a movement to introduce a new system of religious instruction in German schaols. Heretofore such in struction ha1 been based on the old and new tertaments.
 The new plan, which was evolved by teachers of Meiningen and recent ly endorsed by the teachers associa- ton of Th~ringia, where Protestants are in the majority would do away with Bible study. Instead, children during their first four years in school would be instructed in German fairyta1es and myths, Robinson Cru soc and the history of the child Jesus. In the, last four years the in struction would have to do with the worship of God by ancient peoples, the life and teachings of Jesus, and the worship of God in Germany.
 More and more, the Thuringia teachers agreed, German myths and poetry shor1d replace in the schools the old testament.
 By no Stretch of the imagina- tion,' comments Germania, the or gan of the Center (Catho1ic) party, 'can this be called religious instruc- tion. It is thoroughly in accord with the wel1-known tendencies of; radical teachers. Catholics must follow this movement win close attention, for it threatens to invade their own schools"

CIRRUS WINNER OF
 BROOKLYN HANDICAP

Cirrus ran a powerful race in the Brooklyn Handicap at the Aqueduct track yesterday afternoon and won the coveted classic. But it is a ques- ton if he were the best horse in the race. He earned the decision by a head from Boniface, and might have been able to have won it by larger margin. But vast majority of the 25,00O persons who saw the contest were of the opinion that Boniface was his superior, and that with bet ter racing luck Wildair and Extermi- nator also would have beaten him.
 Although only seven horses compet- ed it was the most unsatisfactory contest for the historic event even run. To many experts it was more than unsatisfactory; it was puzzling.
 As Cirrus went over the finish line Buddy Ensor, who had the leg up on him, was sitting as still as an image, and despite the shouts and cries of the thousands and thousands of race goers he refused to put whip to his charge or even to give him a hard hand ride v
 For that reason thousands were of the opinion that Cirrus was far from being all out at the end. But those familiar with Ensor's style of riding an cratic or i'll tempered horse de- clared Cirrus was doing his best, and that a touch of whip or heel would have beaten him.

Walter Lippmann, writing about the Chicago Convention in The New Republic says:
 Much will be written in the next months about the impotence of the Old Guard. It is waste of energy. What is more, such preachment is totally unreal. The Old Guard is at least true to itself. The game played by the progressives at this convention is in my opinion not one bit superior in morals to that played by the Old Guard, and it is infinitely less effec-. tive. The Old Guard can at least sink personal ambitions in a common purpose. It does not believe in fairies. It knows what it wants. The progressives do not know what they want. They just want to be a little nobler and a little cleaner, provided they do not have to stay out in the wilderness too long. They went to Chicago to play a game which on13 a professional can play because only a professional will take the time and the trouble to understand it. They trimmed, they evaded, they imagined they were boring from within, they

SCOTT MAKES RECORD
 IN STRAIGHT GAMES

Boston, June 25 - Everett Scott, shortstop of the Red Sox, yesterday held the record for all time for par ticfpation in consecutive baseball games. When he took the field against Cleveland yesterday Scott ex- tended to 579 the number of games in which he has played without inter ruption.
 Several weeks ago Scott surpassed the modern record of 533 games, held d by Luderus of the Philadelphia Ma tionaIs- Then baseball historians dug into the musty archives of the sport to find that George Pinckney. short stop of the Brooklyn club of 1SS5-90, had taken part in SIS games in six seasons without a break
 Scott, having played consistently since 1916, has made his record in five playing seasons, including 55 games this year, with no layoff in prospect

RUTH EXHIBITS HIS PROWESS
 IN COLUMBUS

Columbus, Ohio, June 25-The New York Yankees defeated the Co., 1umbus Panhandles, said to be one of the fastest amateur teams in the county, in an exhibition game here yesterday by the score of 9 to 1.
 Babe Ruth, the famous New York slugger, drove six balls out of the park in batting practice, hit a long foul over the rightfield bleachers in the third inning, and in the fifth sent the ball on a line over the fence in right center for a home run, scoring Ward, who had singled, ahead of him, the home run king also made a double, stole two bases and walked twice.
 Ruth pitched the last inning, and allowed the amateurs to hit him for a double and a single so they could score a complimentary run.

CARRIES
 OUT A SMART PLAY

Babe Twombly, extra outfielder of the Cubs, conceived and carried out a play the other day which was both original and clever to a rare degree. He was at bat in Boston and the Cubs had men on first and second The sign came for a run and hit play. There flashed then through the Cub subs nimble brain a still better scheme. He bluffed that he was go- ing to bunt- He poked his bat for ward. Boeci1eI, the Braves third baSeman, was fooled and came tearing in Thereat TwoGnbTy pulled his bat anocar and didn't bunt Third base, however, was left unguarded by the trick. and the two men on bases made a double steal standing up.

BOTH BOXERS ARE
 SHADOW BOXING

The boxing fans are just a trif1e indignant over the recent announce- rnent that Carpenter will not box Battling Levinsky in July, as was generally supposed, but will return to France prior to that match, and come back to America in Se-.ember to fight Levinsky- It is further re- ported that Deschamps, Carpenters manager has made the statement that Carpentier wou1G not consent to fight Dempsey until July 1921.
 If Carpentier-Dempsey bout ever is held-and it's possibility seems mighty remote-it viii take place some time in the distant future, when Georges and Jack have reached the bald-headed, rheumatic class. Just now both are making too much money to seriously consider losing their reps or their good looks in such . rough pastime as boxing.

GIVE ATTENTION TO GRAPES
important That All Grapevines and
Other Small Fruits Be Pruned
and Sprayed In Spring.

prepared by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture)
With the approach Of spring It ~
very important that all grapevtnes and
other small fruits be pruned, sprayed,
and given proper attention. Grapes
especially need attention at this time.
If the vines have not been pruned, do
not delay but prune them at once. II
the pruning is put of too long the
vines will bleed and lose their vitcl-
ity. There are two or three methods
for pruning grapevines, but the main
essential is to prune back the lateral
branches that were formed last year,
leaving about three or four buds also.
If the number of these branches il too
great, they should be thinned out and
only the stronger ones left.
The fruit is borne on the new wood
formed during the early springtime,
and the old wood simply serves as q
basis for the production Of this new
wood. If the vines are left without
pruning, great number Of new
branches will be formed, the vines will
be too thick, and the fruit small and
inferior. 1t is Il good plan to spray the
grapevine with commercial lime-sul-
phur solution, at the rate of one part
to nine parts Of water. This spray

Later after the fruit has set. make

ALEXANDRA CURL IN FASHION
Style introduced Fifty Years
Ago.

London.-A new style Of couture
has been, decreed by the hairdressers
before most women seem to have mas
tered the latest arrangements.
The new style is what is called ''the
Alexandra curl" because it was intrO-
ducej by Queen Alexandra when she
was princess Of Wales, some fifty
years ago.
The hair is done high on the head
and the curls fall over the neck, being
from twelve to sixteen inches in
length. They need not necessarily be
the wearer's own curls.
It is claimed that this couture is be-
coming to the greatest number of
women, whereas the side crease and
the forehead exposure Of the existing
fashion is declared by the promoters
of the innovation to be unbecOming to
the greatest number.
But, becoming or unbecoming, ex-
perience teaches that il 1t becomes the
fashion it will be universally adopted.
