Hundreds of mothers are wondering today, finding a touch of sOlace in the possibility that the nation bows in grief over the body of one she bore to live and die, if need he, for the republic. If we give rein to fancy, a score of sympathetic chords are touched, for in this body there once glowed the soul of an

Bishop Henderson of Detroit Also Says of Militarist Heads Meeting, Ghosts of 10 Million Dead Will Haunt Session.

Haunt Session."
 Detroit, Nov. 11.-Unless the va cant chair at the world conference on limitation of ornaments is oc cupied by Christ, the conference will adjourn without any hope of perman ent peace, Bishop Theodore s. Hen derson of Detroit, head of the Meth odist Episcopal church in Michigan, said today in an address before an armistice day mass meeting of all re- ligious organizations in the city.
 There will be vacant chair at the .conferenCe table and the occupant of that chair will determine the out lcome of the Conference,' Bishop Hen .derson said. If Q militarst sits in lthe chair the skeletons of 10, O,000,000 Esoldiers who died in the world war Icome to naught.
 War Is a Curse. If an economist sits there and ar Eues that we must reduce armaments because war is too costly, then the fwar lords of the world will chuckle with glee, Not until we declare war lis an unmitigated curse and a denial 'of the gospel of Christ will war ever be abolished.
 If war is only too expensive be- cause big battleships cost $40, ,0o0,000 leach, if America cannot afford war because 93 cents out of each dollar Fin the national budget goes to pay |war bills; if that is all that the con- Ference delegates can say, then kar Twill be delayed only until the na- |tions have enough dollars in their cof- fers to start another war. Not until |the prime consideration of the reduc- Tion of ornaments and abolition of |Har passes from the zone of econom- Ference delegates can say, then war |hVer cease"

The Cedars Clean up in Seventh

The Tall Cedars are now we'll under
way and hitting on all four. They
added the second scalp for the week to
their belt Thursday evening when the
Odd Fellows were defeated for the
second time this season.
1t was a very interesting game
filled with the tensity Of, what will
happen next ?" and "who is going to
WIN ~ The strain must have been too
much for some Of the Odd Fellows
because an error and a "bone" in the
seventh brought defeat.
From beginning to end it was a
pitchers game and they were all su-
ported except in three instances. Lopez
was going fine the first four innings,
having nine strike outs to his credit
and in the third inning pitched only
ten balls and the nearest the Cedars
came to hitting was three foul balls.
But after the fourth Lop weakened
q little or else the Cedars "got on to
him. because he only sent one man
away from the plate sailing the flag
Of truce. Morris stuck with them to
the end and pitched a fine game of
ball.
The Odd Fellows first run came in
the second when Smith got on when
Sturgeon missed a throw to first.
stole second and third and beat
out a throw to the plate. In the
same inning the Cedars put across the
second earned run of the season when
Triggs connected with a straight ball
netting three bases. "Slim" Morris
came through with a single scoring
Triggs.
The Odd fellows second run came
in the fourth after two out when War
rem singled to short, stole second, and
came home on Haab's two Dagger to

ne there. and besides, you know now
who has the most friends around here,
by the applause | got after my affair
at third" It was applause all right,
but not the kind | would want. Doe
Lands got thrown cut at first and then
"Hinnie" Foulke cleared the bases and
went as far as third on a single to
left. Collins doubled and Lop and
Smith batted for the second time that
inning and Smitty flied out to Clair.
Clair went in the box next inning
and it would have been one two three
order if Digger" Hunt had had his
arm with him, but he didn't and as a
consequence five more runs were added
to the pile.
Lop certainly had the Mechanics
tanning and an even twenty walked
up and away, some taking a few
healthy swings. However he let out
nine safe ones which were put to little
advantage except in the eigth when
nine Junior batted and three runs were
scored and bases full before any outs
were made. Then Lopez got
down to business famed two and the
the next batter foul flied out to first.
Warren certainly had a wonderful
time on the bases and run around them
like a little boy. He made five round
trips that counted and one which al
most did but he was thrown out at
the plate. At any rate he holds the
record for the number Of runs scored
in II game.

The Big Crop

The big crop in this country, to the
amazement of outsiders is not wheat
or oats, but automobiles. Not only the
farmer but his sons and hired men
have their cars. The roads swarm
with them. Among the curious effects
of the automobile in the country may
he noted the impossibility of buying
farm butter, the milk being sold to
creameries, condenseries and shippers
and delivered quickly by motor car.
Many farmers buy creamery butter.
The huckster has been almost eIimin-
mated; the motor car takes the pro-
duce to town in half an hour. there is
the coal oil truck, the gasoline truck,
bread and ice cream trucks, the soft
drink trucks. The latest is the sugar
truck. which makes regular trips, and
keeps the etorekeepers supplied. The
primitive rural atmosphere is not to
be found nowadays.
