DUGAN ONLY VET
 LEFT ON INF|ELD
Yankees Have G1eenest Inner Defense Ever in World Series

New York. Sept. 29 tP) -- The
 rookie inncld of the New York
 Yankees is the greenest inner de-
 fen&e that has ever confronted worlds series contender
 Smart pitching and an alright de-
 fcnse are the factors that are con- coded to have the better chance to
 win the big prize in baseball. This year finds the Yankees with only one
 veteran player on it's infiold-Joe Dugan at third base. All the others are playing their first full year in big league baseball.
 Whether this inneld will stand up during the strain of battle for the seasons honors is q question. When Miller Huggins team cracked wide open in the 1925 campaign it tum- bled from second to seventh place. There were holes at shortstop and at second while first base was slowing |up. Everett Scott. the club short
 stop on the championship team of ifa24, began 10 slow down so that he was said to he playing the position | fry at the ioh but failed to hit and Hast season Mark Koonig came to the Yankees from the St. Paul club. He Twas promptly given T chance at inc iob. Meantime Huggins' club was having troubles at second base. Aar- on Wards fielding was good but his batting fell away until he was almost useless and he alternated with Ernie Johnson at the middle sack. At | first base Wally Pipp showed the ef- feCts of long service and Hugglns put
 | ,ou Gehrig at the initial sack dur'ng
 the middle ot the season. GHhrlg s ifolding was uncertain but he had Ipenchant for long distance hitting so dear to Huggins' heart. There he re- mainnd.
 ] Durirg inc winter the Yanks ob- Itained Tony T.azzeri from Salt Lake City of the Pacific Coast league where he battered the fences with his hitting and sent up record oi 1 co home runs. Spring cawo and Huggins placed the fiery Italian at second where ne

LEAGUE WATCHING
 BRITAIN, ITALY
Interested in Coming Conference
 Of Two PrenierS

Geneva, Switzerland, Sept. 29.-tP, The forthcoming conference be- tween Sir Austen Chamberlain and Premier Nlussolini is attracting an interest in League Of Nations cir clies. where it is believed the Brit ish and Italian statesmen are cer- tain 10 discuss the Abyssinia and Tangier problems.
 IL is known that the Ahyssinian question was settled out Of court" |" Great Britain and Italy prevailing upon Abyssinia not to appeal fur ther to the league against their al lrged pressure for the granting of concessions in Abyssinian territory. The exact details of the settlement have not been disclosed. but it is probable the matter will be the sub iect of further exchange Of views.
 Furthermore. Mussolini is believed 10 desire assurance that Germany. as Q member of the league. will not be permitted to reopen questions settled by treaty. including especial ly the cession of Southern Tyrol 10 Italy by Austria, as well as asSur- ance that Italy's demands for an outlet for her surplus population will not be forgotten In any plans 10 allocate colonies TO Germany.
 Finally, Italy, realizing that Great Britain is being kept informed of the negotiations for a broad Franco German accord begun at Thoiry, is believed to he anxious to prevent elaboration Of virtual tr-parlitc pact which would leave Italy out of consideration.
 Italians here insist that their country. as q matter of prestige, must be reckoned with in all i'm portant European agreements, be- cause Italy. like Great Britain, is a guarantor of the peace of Europe under the LoCarno treaty

Why Accept Christ?

Some one may say to lost soul:
"You should accept Christ and be
saved for you might die before an
other day." Now it is true that we
ought to be prepared to die; but rath-
err than use the above invitation It
would be better to say to the lost
soul: "You should accept Christ as
your Saviour for you might live fifty
years more to serve Him." If man
serves Christ faithfully, thus living
right, he will not need to be concern
ed about his dying for he knows that
he will die right if he has lived right
Lost friend, how are you living? As
if hundred years from now will be
soon enough to be saved? If so, re-
member that Gods Word says, BE
hold, now is the accepted time; be-
hold, now is the day of salvation"

you just get so happy in serving the
Lord that you make some noise and
some folks get very nervous. Let
me give my definition for shouting.
Shouting is the process whereby you
think all the religion you have in you
is trying to get out your mouth: but
in truth you are just being filled from
above. And Mr.. Worldly hruch-
member and Mr.. Got No Religion, let
me say a word to you. The reason
you say there is nothing in shouting
is because you never worked hard
enough for the Lord for Him to give
you any pay.A man | know better
than any other man in the world
had to work hard for the Lord four
years before he got his first big show
er of blessing from the Holy Spirit.
1t was bonus that God gave. Is
shouting religion? No, it's shouting
1t is not religion but it is the effect
of religion. Loving God and your
fellowmen and serving Jesus faith
fully is religion. May who do that,
shout. Friend reader, shouting is
fine; a wonderful thing indeed; but
all should live as high as they shout.

SENTENCE SERMONS
BY CASTOR R. Coyner
Recognition in Heaven?

A Scotch minister was once seated
in his library. His wife walked IN
and putting her arms around HIM
said: Dear, do you think we shan
know each other in Heaven?" The
preacher looked up and replied: Dear
do you think we shall be bigger fools
in Heaven than we are on earth" !
am told that churches have been sp x
up into hostile factions over the ques-
ton of knowing each other in Heaven
The question itself is a non-essent'al
but no doubt many are cheating them
selves out of Heaven by quarrelin@
over it. Jesus said that many should
come from the east and the west ana
sit down with Abraham and Isaac
and Jacob in the Kingdom of Heaven
Then. If we are to sit down with them,
we shall certainly know them when
we do. 1t seems to me that Heaven
would not be a joyful place If all
there were strangers to each other.

LONG

Mr.. EDITOR:-I see so much said
recently about modifying or changing
the Prohibition law, | cannot help but
say my piece.
AS so many church men say Pro-
hibition is a failure, | say no. The
trouble is the fines are two light. Give
the first offence fine $500 and five
years at hard labor; second offense
1000 and ten years at hard labor;
third offense the end Of the rope.
Now if we as a christian nation can't
control little thing like prohibition
what is the law going to do about the
ten commandments ? "Thou shalt not
commit adultry." Stop and think
before we say quit.

II works ne hardship on the athlete
who is In training. Unlike the sys.
TENS that have been used for years.
this prominent and successful trainer
Of men makes conditioning more of q
pleasure than a distasteful necessity.
Instead Of demanding that his men eat
only certain things he advises them to
eat what they want and when they want
1t as long as 1t is cooked In a proper
manner. Mr.. Howard, In a recent in
terview on the subject of diet and con-
dition, said, in part: years ago it was
a task, and an unpleasant one, for
boxer or wrestler to train for bout
because he was forced to literally
starve himself unless he wanted TO eat
steaks and chops at all times | re
member that when ! was training for
match, l was so truly tired of steaks
that choked every time that ate
one but ii was steak or nothing | adj
wise my men to diet at all times but 1t
is perfectly possible for them to diet
and, at the same time, to enjoy their
food. My only don't is the one re.
gardng the eating of such comblna-
lions as fresh milk and cheese, and
fruit with cream. In fact, l advocate
the use of evaporated milk entirely.
Vegetables are fine and the more that
the athlete eats the better he win be
for it. Pastry. of certain kinds. such as
homemade pies, cakes and cookies, il
made correctly, and with pure butter,
evaporated milk and pure lard, are
very beneficial. Stews and boils are
Ideal. Taken as whole, any food,
with few exceptions, is all right il
properly cooked and eaten without
gorging."
And one has but to look at Howard,
who is the most religious user OF his
own system, to realize that ii is sue
cesS.
