 LUXURIES, SAYS SCRIBE

NEW YORK, Aug. 28. - As time goes on the unpleasant conviction that the Yankees and Giants would be con- siderably better off had they denied themselves the luxury of daily associ- ation with Babe Ruth and Heinie Groh is slowly permeating the public in- tellect.
 The New York clubs have gone some , S4OO,OOO lon the nut" as they say at ABaileys Beach, Newport, for the doubt full boon of this pairs society; vet the Tanks front-ran their way through the first six weeks of the race when Ruth was suspended and it is mat ter of record that every time Groh stubs careless toe the Giants start winning streak.
 Quite some capital has been made, from time to time, of the fact that the Tanks sped along at $50 pace with Ruth off the club and since his return have scarcely bettered 300. The answer to that one is obvious, however. When Ruth isn't hitting, as Mppens to be the case, his value to ball club is negligible.
 GRoH PROVES FAILURE
 Groh is another matter entirely. He is supposed to be one of the best defensive third basemen of decade and his ability to hit beyond 300 was a secondary consideration when John McGraw lured him here from Cincin- natl. He was supposed to make the infield defense fool-proof and zealots of the press coop became so enamored of the idea that they forthwith called it the million-dollar infield.
 But one cannot go behind facts, and the fact of this matter is that the Giant infield has proved itself more efficient with Frisch on third and Rawlings on second than with Groh on third and Frisch on second. The club not only has won considerably more ball games with the former con- bination working, but has made more double plays, a certain test of greater efficiency.
 Groh is supposed to have cost the Giants S150,000 in players and money and the club never figures to get it < back, except through the indirect ? medium of the pennant. And since the team plays better ball with Groh on the bench, he must be regarded as

Almost a Clean Sweep.

Last Tuesday Geo. Coffey, sheriff,
and S. F. Coffey, deputy sheriff, went
into the Burton and Sano settlement
to serve warrants on parties charged
with crap shooting. They executed
papers on forty different persons. All
the parties were to have been here
last Wednesday for trial, and many
came.
Before the cases were called in the
afternoon, Mr.. Gordon Montgomery,
County Attorney, made the state
ment that all who would confess judg-
ment for twenty dollars and cost, he
would give them that opportunity.
Fourteen came forward and confess
ed for said amount. One case was dis
missed for want of. proof and
two were continued until the second
Monday in April. Ten of the parties
who confessed judgment for twenty
dollars and cost are paging their
fines in jail.

An UnseIfish Spirit.

Upon arriving at Campbellsville
Friday the Columbia High School
team was greatly disappointed to find
that only the Campellsville team had
entered the tournament. This made
it impossible to play and destroyed
their hopes Of going to Lexington as
the rules of the association required
at least three teams to contest.
A number of Lindsey. Wilson boys
had accompanied the Lindsey girls, so
after learning of the disappointment
which the High School boys we're fac
ing, they hurriedly got five boys TO-
gether, regardless Of the fact Of
whether or not they could play ball,
donned the High School boys uni
forms and played Campbellsville so
that the home boys might have an
opportunity to beat that same team
and thus win the district tournament
In speaking of this, Prof. Prather
said it was wonderful example of
unselfish sportsmanship and that all
hats should be off to Lindsey in appre-
citation of the spirit displayed.

Attention. Methodist.

Southern Methodists in this section
who are directly concerned in the
Centenary of Missions movement and
the Christian education campaign,
the two forward movements of that
church inaugurated by the general
conference of 1918, will be interested
to know that leaders in the two
causes have completed plans which
will prevent any conflict in pushing
the wind up of these enterprises dur,
ing the closing months of the 1882
quadreunium.
By an agreement of leaders in con.
ference at Nashville, Tennessee, it
was made clear that there was no con.
fiict In the mind of the church in re-
gard to these two undertakings since
the Centenary forces will only seek
the collection Of arrearages on pledges
already made and no canvass will be
made for new subscriptions. In
accordance with this plan, aeollectior
movement will be insugurated or
March 26, which has been designated
as "World Sunday" and will termi
nate on April 1st.
