way that it breaks much after the

Bush came back strong. In fact
looked so good that the New York

In securing Bush, Manager Harris
Of the Washington club is contin-
uing his policy of depending on
veteran pitchers.
Coveleskie and Reuther came
through for him in great shape last
season. They should win plenty of
games this year.
Bush, who broke even last season
with IA wins and as many defeats,
should help Harris in his effort to
land another pennant. While he
hasn't the burning speed of old, he's
smart.
They say youth must be served in
sport but that doesn't go for the
Washington pitching staff. OF the
four regulars, Johnson, Coveleskie,
Bush and Reuther, the last named

Experiecne is great asset in
pitching and there is no question
but that the Washington staff has

his fifth American league club when
he joins the champions.
Like a lot of other stars, Bush
was discovered by Cornelius Mack.
He cost Sir Connie all of 500 iron
men. One of his scouts, wandering
around Missoula, Mont, saw Bush
pitch and Immediately bought him.
Bush spent five years with Mack,
who passed him on to the Boston
Red Sox. His next ticket read New
York, where he tarried for three
years, taking part in two world
series He pitched great ball in
1923, the year the Yankees beat
the Giants for the world title.
Deserving the east for the west,
Now he comes back as member
of the Washington team, which com
pletes his tour of the eastern end
Of the circuit.
Bush, during the first six years of
his major league career, won fame
because of his great speed. He was
known as "BuIIet Joe" Bush.
After his transfer to the Boston
club Bush was of little use, due
to an injury to his pitching arm.
Unable to BATTLE the batter with

GOSPEL.

Copies of the Gospel may we'll be
used with these groups also. Chapter
headings may be prepared by the
members and the best for each one
chosen as the class's selection for a
class copy of John. Letters may be
assigned covering the various events
studied: Andrew may write letter
home telling about that first day; Mic
odemus can send one to a friend in
Rome; the Samaritan woman to the
husband with whom she can no longer
live; the boy with the lunch to another
boy, etc. Drama may be introduced
by assignment of the various charac-
tiers to members of the class, each to
to tell the story of the event of the
lesson. Question contests may be
staged within the class or between
classes. Beyond all else use the per-
iod to present Jesus as personal Sa-
vior and church membership as an ex-
preston Of the new attitude.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULTS:
GREAT TEACHINGS OF
JOHNS GOSPEL.
Be sure that a clear view of the
Gospel as whole is given. If some
one outside the class will do this it
may prove both helpful and attrac-
tive. What does John teach about i'm
mortality, the new birth, worship, sin,
the Holy Spirit, dignity of service,
God, Heaven, death of Jesus, wor-
ship? What particularly helpful
thing have | gained from this study?
may bring very fruitful discussion.
A debate, Resolved: That Johns is
the greatest of the Gospels, may offer
another form of review that will be
serviceable Place the emphasis where
John placed it, upon the evangelistic
note and bring each member of the
class face to face with Johns Christ
with an opportunity for accepting
Him as Lord.
