Congregation Of Vine Street
Church Of Christ See The
Church Free of Debt
MORTGAGE AND NOTE
ARE BURNED SUNDAY
Service Held By Congrega-
ton Commemorate Tri-
umph Of Faith

Sunday in Mt Vernon was notable
for services of a more than common.
ly interesting character in several of
the local churches. In addition to
the Rally day services held by the
Gay st. M. E., the Presbyterian ana
the Baptist churches, the congrega-
tion of the Vine ST. Church of Christ
participated in series of services oc-
cupying the entire day, marking the
cancellation of the debt on the
church and the burning of the mort
gage, the tangible evidence of that
debt.
Large congregations were at each
of the services, three in number. The
theme for the morning service was
"Consecration"; that for the after
noon gathering was "Fellowship";;
the evening service had "victory" as
its keynote.
The services were conducted by the
pastor, the Rev. Hugh Wayt Pres
ent and taking an active and inter.
ested part in all was the Rev. ]. A..
Long Of Wilmington, o., former pas.
tor of the local church, during whose
pastorate the present church ediflce
was erected. Assisting the pastor,
tho Rev.. Hugh Wayt, at the morning
service, he spoke at the Fellowship
service in the afternoon, while at the
Victory service in the evening he de-
livered the sermon.
Consecration being the theme Of
the morning service, the pastor spoke
to the congregation, his sermon text
being H. Timothy 2:S. The sermon
began with words of command and
exposition of the admonition written
by Paul to Timothy. Continuing, the
minister said Christianity has given
to the world many great characters
aad good men, but we are admonished
to remember Jesus and to follow
Him."
We are to remember Christ was a
personal saviour and had a human
body. He has taken our humanity into
the presence Of God.
We are to remember Jesus in His
humility. He was the Prince OF
Peace, but was served by the evi
denc of His humility. His disciples
were hard-working publicans and
fishermen. He came in no royal char
lot.
We should remember His kindness
In the kind things He did He was ne
respecter of persons. His kind treat
ment of the sinner does not mean 6
license to sin.
We are to remember Jesus alst
for His personal work. His was 1
hand-to hand service. He calls US in
dividually to.follow Him. He is will
each Individual as though that one II
the only person on earth.
We are to remember Christ also al
man of courage. When He drov
the money changers from the TEN
ple, when He was before Herod ant
Plate, he was bold.
Let us remember Jesus also as tn
only sinless being. When we stan
in the presence of Christ it is not t
look at fallen greatness, but to OF
serve simplicity in it's greatness.
We are to remember Jesus also l
His sufferings. We were bought wit
a price, the precious blood Of Chris

Charles, first base; Klucken, second
base; Bateman, shortstop; Myers,
third base; Lynch, left field; Smith,
center field; Alexander. right field,
and Muddy Miller. catcher. Either
Boland or Kerns will do the twirling

HiIItoppers Show Much More
Class Than Either Maryland

BY McGurk.

Georgetown University. Maryland
University and George Washington
University track athletes will engage
in q triangular meet at the Hilltop
tomorrow afternoon.
1t is a foregone conclusion that
Georgetown, with the exception Of
a few places. will practically sweep
the boards. The Hilltoppers have q
greater number Of seasoned athletes
Of a higher caliber than either the
Marylanders or the Hatchetites.
Practically all the runners at
Maryland and George Washington
are green men. Georgetown, on the
other hand, has seasoned campaign
ers who recently showed the way to
Penn States team.
The meet is scheduled TO start at
3 p. m. and will include all the
events in a track meet with the ex-
ception OF a relay race. LeGendre.
Connolly, Marsters, Brewster and
Tullar will appear as Georgetown
stars. Beers. Compiler, Robertson

FIGHT TUESDAY.
Popular Pair Will Be In Semi
Windup to Main Bout at
Baltimore Playhouse.

It has been nearly four months
since George Clancy, Baltimore's
hardhitting lightweight has appeared
in his home town. This has been due
to the fact that Philadelphia promo
ters have been offering unheard-of
purses for the Fighting Irishman to
appear in their arenas, and were II
not for the fact that he II anxious
to prove to his loyal rooters here that
he is Shamous O'Brien's master, the
southpaw battler handled by Sam
Harris would not be willing to show
his wares on April 25 at the Play
house on North Eutaw street.
CLANCY had been having remarkable
success in the Philadelphia rings, un-
III he ran into O'Brien. Shamous
was credited with the only win in
Georges many fights in Billy Penn's
town, and when the Knockout King
returned to this city and found the
fans saying that he was slipping, he
immediately hunted up Manager Sam
Harris and said:
Get me O'Brien at any terms"
CLANCY passed UP a very attrac.
tive offer to fight Jimmy Hanlon in
Philadelphia the later part OF this
month, simply to get a second chance
with O'Brien. and now that he has
the opportunity, the fans can look
for him to give everything he has
in stock.
On the same bill with CLANCY and
O'Brien. Young Bowen. of Washing.
ton, is to take on Joe CLANCY over
a six-round course to a decision. Be
cause of the large following all four
OF these fighters have in Washing.

In my case II was from staleness.
I had been playing very well for six
months or over and there is usually
a reaction in ones game after 60
ing steadily for that long. began
to hurry my shots and the poor
timing resulted.
II golfer can only stand on the
tee and wait each time for the club
head to come around and connect
the ball before any attempt is made
to get the body into the shot he
can always depend on a good drive.
Most golfers play on the left
hand side Of the ball too much
instead OF the right hand. Thece
going to happen to the ball or
of the stroke Is completed. After
this has been done the follow
through will come naturally and
the finish will prove that the
shot has been a good one.
Sometimes 1t Is impossible to
watch the flight OF the ball, but by
watching the player it is easy to
tell whether the shot has been a
success or a failure. There is also
a way Of telling a good shot from
bad one by the sound. A ball
pushed off to the right sounds very
different from a well-hit drive, just
as a shot played perfectly looks
good to the eye and usually brings
results.
The idea that I wish to convey
about playing too much on the left
hand side OF the ball is this: A
player must first hit the ball be.
fore making any motion towards
getting his body into play. 1t is
time enough to think OF that after
the connection has been made with
the little pill. The left heel must
return to the ground at the instant
the ball is hit and not a wee frac-
ton Of a second sooner or later.
The trouble with most golfers

ways disastrous. The mind works

timing can be accomplished only by
holding back all body power until

Sometimes players develop the

right through staleness, or what Is
known as everyday.

is harmful.
