BAPTIST CHURCH MAKES
FINE PROGRESS IN YEAR

The annual meeting of the
Baptist church was held Tuesday
evening, April 25. with a fair
attendance of the membership
present, together with a gOodly
number of adherents and friends.
The following report of the
meeting was prepared for The
Tribune:
After a splendid dinner pro-
vided by the ladies, the good
quality of which it would be
difficult to exaggerate, reports
from the various departments Of
work were submitted and which
in the main were most credit
able.
Numerically the Baptists are
not strong. The church year be-
gan with a membership of as.
This has been increased during
the year by 25, this number be-
ing counteracted by two transfers
and two deaths, leaving the race
at 67.
Financially, more than a cor
responding progress has been
made, the church proper having
raised $1O22 for local work, and
$553.24 for missions. The Sun
day school has raised for local
work, $164.22, for missions, $99.-
46; B. Y. p. U. for local work,
$S9.4S, for missions, $17.48;
Women's Auxiliary local, $64.18.
for missions, $31.42; w. w. G.
for local work, $23.24; for mis-
sions, $20.25.
Added to these amounts the
combined departments have rails
ed $9S4.OO as a building fund,
making a total from all sources
of $3O70.27, $722.15 going to
missions.
No method for raising money
has been adopted other than by
voluntary giving OF the member
ship of the church. The church
begins the new year with a local
debt of about $50.
The Sunday School roll now
stands at 143 with an average
attendance for the year at 95.
Spiritually: Here no attempt
at bookkeeping is made nor is
any claim laid to distinction, but
the services are we'll attended
and a splendid response nantes
ted.
The church expresses kind ap.
probation to all friends of the
church, especially of the partic'
ular courtesy shown to the pastor
and the general assistance to the
work of the church by the Lyn
den Tribune.
The officers of the church
are: Treasurer, L. A. Jones

Too Much Talk of
Money in Baseball
Ranks at Present
Sport VIII Suffer as Magaates
and Ruth Feature Dollar
Sign.
By HENRY FARRELL.

NEW YORK, March 7.-Tons Of the
razz will fall upon the pitcher who
slips this coming season and grooves
one for Babe Ruth.
Every time the Babe" does his $500
stuff a few wise crackers will howl that
the pitcher is getting a cut for letting
him hit.
This Is but natural result Of the
over commercialized condition Of all pro
fessional sport No one is to blame but
the club owners themselves.
Commissioner Lands, with all his time
now to keep the game straight, could
put in few hours daily to good advan-
tags by muzzling the big talking mo-
guls.
Many fans figure that Babe Ruth Is
not worth the 100000 that will come to
him through his three-year contract. II
he isn't worth that much the club own
ers have made him think so and he Is
cashing n on their valuation.
When the swat king was suspended by
Commissioner Lands the moguls shr1eked
from the house tops that they would lose
various sums from $4,000 to $2OO,OOO each
while he was out of the game. "
If Ruth draws $500, 900 each year into
the American League gates, he's worm
half of 1t and no one can blame him I0r
cushing In when the magnates, especially
the ones who do not have to pay MIN,
are so kind as to tell him how good he
is
Discomfort prevails generally through
the ranks Of the players because the CLUB
owners have insisted upon featuring ths
money end of the sport If the magnates
have not been making barrels of money,
they have been giving that impression
and the players cannot be blamed 1oA
wanting some of It,.
Ever since Commissioner Lands took
charge OF baseball, it has been commended
by many that the club owners needed
as much investigation as the players

condition and plenty of action is assured
