"WHY NOT TRY
CHRISTIANITY"

The Nationand Athenaeum of
I,ondon in a remarkable article pub
lished recently, declares that civilized
man "has everything he wants to
make him happy-love, pity, ener-
gy, the sciences and the arts, sub
duable earth and sublime religion,
and yet is rushing to ruin. And how
is the catastrophe to be avoided?
"Here we are, English, Irish,
French, Germans, Russians and
Americans, shipwrecked together
and liable to perish. The doctrine of
self-subsistence will save none of us;
for what happens to Vienna tomor-
row may happen to Paris or London
the week or year after The more
military or the more primitive
stocks might, indeed survive a gen
eral crash of civilization. But man
does not always want to be living
the centuries over again. The trou
BILE is that the imminent peril of So
ciety remains UNEMPLOYED and almost
unguessed by it. While man fears
what is really not fearful at all-the
loss of comfort or the spread of the
doctrine of equality-he does not
dread the most horrible thing that
could happen to him, namely, the
loss of all sense of unity of the hu-
man race"
Wherefore the writer proposes a
remarkable remedy: "Why not try
Christianity He insists that "the
mere day-by day observance of the
central Christian precept, which is
the Golden Rule, would suffice to
stop war, famine, plague and most
social diseases, and to raise the
whole western world to an unimag-
Unable condition of happiness, beau
ty and wealth." Yet man, in his
great time of trial, "disregards the
monitor within"
Impractical? Not so, the writer
insists Christianity as a religious
mystery may be impossible for men
to agree upon, but as a doctrine of
life there is nothing simpler.
1--WE have only to translate it into
the practice of doing to others as we
yscnld that they should do to us, for
c;;i-g he injuries that they have
DON US. And we have only to trans
mute these doctrines of common
sense into politics, and let them ap-
pear as disarmament, the revision of
the treaty, the withdrawal of the
occupations, the relief of the famine,
the opening of Russia, the pooling of
credits, the forgiveness of debts, the
union of the sundered states, and the
establishment and endowment of
the League of Nations, and in a
twelvemonth or so Europe will have
grown out of all knowledge of her
battered and disfigured self"
Moreover, so practical newspa-
per as The Rocky Mountain News,
commenting approvingly upon this
view, suggests that it is pretty good
doctrine for the Genoa conference"
Can you beat it? The very idea
of a Christian civilization seriously
trying to apply Christianity to in
teraatonal affairs!

engaged in thrilling twelve round
bout. Shawkey was awarded the de-
cision.
There was action in every round.
Shartey, who had an advantage in
weight of seven pounds, was no match
for the Harlem bantam in the first six
rounds and was battered along the
ropes repeatedly by Nable's left hand.
Nable, who fought last night what
was probably one of the greatest fights
Of his career, completely overwhelmed
Sharkey in the first half of the bout,
but thereafter the advantage in weight
seemed to tell and Sharkey began to
pile up the points.
Sharkey won the judges decision By
his showing in the tenth and eleventh
rounds. when he opened up with some
of the stuff that made him q favorite a
year ago with New York fight fans.
The weights were Nable 121 and

Fifty-nine contests were decided
this spring, embracing fourteen clubs,
and of these games the National won
thirty and the American twenty-nine.
This is the first time in several years
that the senior organization has been
able to defeat Ban Johnson's circuit
on the series. The slim margin of vic
tory is proof of the equality OF strength
of the two leagues. 10 eu
The club which Ord the most toward
giving the advantage to the National
was the St. Louis outfit. The Cardinals
were the best in their league in the
preseason games, winning nine and
losing only four. Strangely enough it
was also st. Louis team which did
the best work in the American. The
contests, but won four of them
Champions Disappoint
The champion New York teams did
not do so we'll. The Giants broke even
against the White Sox, while the
teen against the Robins and the Car
dinals,
Besides leading their league the
Cardinals had the distinction Of max
ing clean sweeps in two series, taking
five straight from the Athletics and
two from the Yankees. The Cards faced
two other American League clubs,
breaking even with the Indians and los
ing three out Of four to the Browns.
The Reds with two victories and one
defeat, follow the Cards in the Ma
tonal and Brooklyn comes next. The
Robins won eight and lost seven, win
ming all eight from the Yankees and
losing six to the Hugmen and one to
the Browns.
Washington was second best in the
American League as the result of de-
feating the Braves, seven to four, in
their exhibition tour.
The Philadelphia club of the Ma
tional League was the only team which
failed to win at least one exhibition
game, but the Phillies engaged in only
one contest, being beaten by their
Quaker City brethren, the Athletics
Surprise by Red Sox
One Of the big surprises of the in
ter league contests was the unex-
pected strength that the Boston Red
Sox showed in winning their series
with the Pirates. The Sox took three
out Of four from the club which was
runner-up in last years National
League pennant race.
Probably the hardest-fought series
Of the spring was the one between
the Giants and the White SoX, which
ended to 6. with one game tie

clubs which did not engage in inter
league contests.

III 81 CIdtlS-OCedIf voyage.
Tho trip may be one that will make
world athletic history, and then again,
1t may not. When the king Of all
pugilistic things boarded the Aquitania
yesterday there was no reason to be-
lieve that he would remain abroad any
longer than did our last champion who
engaged in a European speculation.
That was Johnny Buff, premier Of all
the bantamweights in the world
Johnny took one look at Europe and
returned to these arid shores without
raising an offensive or defensive fist
The one European prospect, so far
as ring battle is concerned, is q re-
turn match with Georges Carpenter
who was knocked out by Dempsey at
Boyle's Thirty Acres ten months ago
Nothing new developed at the pier con-
corning prospective matches. Both
Dempsey and Kearns maintained a
demeanor Of delightful diplomacy,
~hile being pursued about the
Aquitania's decks by a battalion Of
photographers, friends and temporary
shipmates.
Not Much Conversation
Manager and fighter could hardly
have been more affable and sensitive
TO the desires CT the whirling throng
about them. They posed here and they
posed there, tramping from deck to
deck in order to satisfy the artistic
whims of the camera men-and they
said absolutely nothing.
Dempsey and Kearns might have been
trained in some finishing school for
British diplomats and yet be unable to
ward off the searching questions that
were fired at them yesterday by a squad
of unfamiliar reporters. When the
Aquitania finally backed out of her
long pier the matter of Dempsey's i'm
mediate plans and the question of his
:, next fight was still as vague and I'M
answered as ever. The reply of both
manager and fighter to all questions
designed to bring out something along
these lines was:

to say something definite"
