Baseball Rales
Changed Slightly

Numerous rules In the baseball
code were threshed out at the an
nual meeting Of the rules committee
OF the National and American
leagues. Chief among the rules was
those relating TO the home run, the
Intentional pass, the balk. the dead
BALI and the legislation regarding
the freak deliveries Of pitchers. In
all nineteen rules were amended and
one added
The addition to the rules deals
with the intentional pass, which de-
clares IL to bs illegal for the catcher
TO step from behind the plate to aid
the pitcher in pitching wide to the
ratsmep. This rule as amended and
adopted by the rules committee SAYS:
IT shall be illegal for the catcher
to leave his natural position i'm
prediate,y and directly back of the
plate for the purpose Of aiding the
pitcher 70 Intentionally give n base
on balls 10 the batsman. II the
catcher shall move out Of position
prior 20 The time the ball leaves the
pitchers hands all runners who may
ne on the bases, shall be entitled to

Cots Credit For Home Run.
The rule covering the home run
says that when a player knocks the
rail- into the stands or the crowds
on fair ground he shall he given
credit Tor a home run IL he completes
the circuit and all runners shall
score ahead of him. In passing this
rule the committee argued X would
Increase the number of home runs a

ADVANTAGE. The rule as amended
SAYS:

Coal of Africa.

Wherever there is coal in the earth
1t is more and more becoming mans
urgent business to know it, whatever
be the theoretical resources of such
vast and unworked fields as may ex-
ist in China. So Africa has been I'M

ogists in 1913 We're reviewing the coal
reserves of the world it was found
that Africa as far as they could make
out had less coal than any other con-
tinent, the total estimated reserve be-

Rural Community Center

A number Of agencies have been
responsible for the origin, growth
and development of the rural COM
munity center. Perhaps the most
obvious is the automobile, because
it has enabled farm people to gath
er together much more easily than
they could in the old days. It's a
matter of a very short run from
corner to corner of the average
township, and it's easy to get to
evening meetings Of one kind and
another. The state agriculture col
leges have done much to advance
this work, too, by arranging pro-
grams for evening meetings, fur
nishing speakers and giving all the
assistance in their power.
One other thing has been par
ticularly helpful in this respect and
that has been the farm electric
light and power plant introduced
within the last few years. Many
rural schoolhouse that formerly
held its evening meetings with the
aid of dim and smoky oil lamps or
held no meetings at all, now shows
a blaze of bright, cheerful electric
light from every window on one or
more evenings of each week. In
the first place electric light makes
good cheer, as compared with the
old methods. 1t is an easy thing,
too, to arrange the electric lights
just where they will do the most
good.
But perhaps the greatest advan-
tage Of electricity for the rural COM
munity schoolhouse lies in the fact
that it makes possible the use of
stereoptican and motion pictures.
For real entertainment and for ed
ucational work there are few things
as good as the motion picture. 1t
speaks universal language.
With its aid one can travel to the
four corners of the world in the
short length of an evening. Its
straight educational value is ire
mendous. A good film showing
the latest and best way of carrying
on various kinds of agricultural
work can make clear in moment
what speaker might have trouble
in explaining at all.
| With all these agencies working
in it's favor, not the least Of which
is electricity, the rural community
center is an assured success

Utopia.

Gibraltar seems to fulfill all the con-
ditions of desirable residence" for
war-impoverished people. There are
no taxes, except on alcoholic liquors
and tobacco, and the revenue, mainly
derived from customs and port dues,
shows handsome balance on the
right side. The colony has no public
debt, and the prosperity of its inhabi-
tants is shown by the savings bank de-
posits, which doubled in year, and
at the end of 1918 gave an average Of
$3.50 for each depositor. At present
the British civil population numbers
about 10000. There is room for a
few more on "the Rock" because the
census of 1911 enumerated nearly IT,
600 besides Maltese and aliens, who
have also diminished since then.

ments will give their assent to lalv's
request for a further postponement for
the conference with the Germans at
spa.
Although the Italian request un-
doubtedlly will form the ostensible
basis Of postponement, it is hinted
that the real reason for such a move
lies elsewhere. The Allies are finding
considerable difficulty in reaching
agreements on all outstanding prob
lens. The amount Of negotiating still
to be done will make it impossible,
political leaders believe, to meet the
Germans as soon as had been planned.
The fact that the negotiations up 10
this time have been interrupted fire.

Premiers Millerand and Lloyd George
have been under to appear every oncc

when The Legislative bodies are in vaca-

English Zionists Thank
Allied Supreme Council
London Federation Grateful for
Balfour Declaration TO Tur-
key and Palestine Mandate

LONDON. May 30.-The twenty-frst
conference of the English Zionist Fed
Grafton of London to-day passed a
resolution depressing gratitude to the
Supreme Council for incorporating the
Balfour declaration in the treaty with
Turkey and for granting the mandate
for Palestine to Great Britain"
ut puts on record" the resolution
continues, deep appreciation of the
llustrious services to the Jewish ma
ton Of the statesmen and peoples of
the Allied and associated powers who
have collaborated n this memorial Bile
achievement, and 1t Pledges itself that
the Zionists of England viii spare no
effort and no sacrifice to reconstitute
Palestine as the Jewish national home."
DR.. v Gilman, who presided said the
text of the mandate was still under
discussion, but provision had been
made for such political, economic and
social conditions in Palestine as would
make it possible to bring a large NUM-
Der of people into the country and set
up developm ment on those lines.
Lord Rothschiid said it behooved
the British people who took the op
portunity offered by the council to
afford the world a lesson by setting I'M
true national home in which everv
one should live in comfort and no enc
could say he was oppressed
