continues:
Mrs. Bill withdrew from the mother

purpose of furthering her own thoo-

Eddy's successor is idle.
"AS to Mrs. Bills inference that her
efforts have created considerable IN

cation, il is only necessary to refer 10
the account of the latest annual meet
ing of the mother church, held on
June 6. in which the clerk reported
an increase in membership larger than
in any preceding year. as well as 10
more churches. 1t would hardly seem
likely, from the foregoing facts, that
the collapse OF the CHRISTIAN science
movement was near at hand. as she
prophesied, or that there was alarm

SEASON ABOUT OVER
FOR MIDDLE TEAMS

ANNAPOLIS, May 24.--The final
home contests for Naval Academy
teams take place this week, while the
season of Spring sports comes TO an
end, except for the participation of
the crews, varsity and plebe, in the
Poughkeepsie regatta.
With the exception of the lacrosse
game with the Military Academy on
Saturday the most important sports
i'm which the Navy teams angage are
away from home. These are base ball
and track with the Military Academy
at West Point, and the entry of the
crews in the Henleys at Philadelphia
Considerable interest attaches to
the annual lacrosse game with the
Army. both twelves being among the
leading college teams of that sport in
the country. The Army has very
big and powerful team. Harry Wilson,
noted foot ball back. being one of the
members, but the Navy expects to
win through speed and team play.
Other events for Saturday at An
napolis are tennis against Pennsyl.
vania and rifle shooting against the
list Regiment. New York National
Guard. Both events finish the season
in those sports.
There is also a bill of some interest
for tomorrow. including varsity base
ball against Mount st. Mary's, the
last game on the home diamond, and
tennis against the University of
Maryland The Plebes also meet the
Maryland freshmen in track and
Tome School on the tennis courts.
The general outlook as to the re-
suit of the three sports in which the
teams of the Naval and Military
academies engage is about as close
as could be
The Army has much the better field
and track team, while the Navy has
the edge as to lacrosse.
The rubber will be the base ball
game, as to which chances appear
even.

LOSS OF MITCHELL

The loss of Abe Mitchell! through

team invading the United States this

Hagen came from behind to defeat
Mitchell in a sensational T2-hole

return match was looked forward to
as one of the high spots of a busy
campaign on the links.

RY JOHN B. FOSTER.

n YEW YORK. May 24.-Paper
IN pads and pencils have been
VI busy figuring out the casual
4 ties resulting from the first
series between the East and
the West in the major leagues. II
may be announced today that the re-
suits are more than interesting.
When the Western teams of the
National League had finished mop
ping up the East on the first trip
toward the Atlantic. they had won
.57S per cent Of their games and the
East had won 422.
In the American League the West
ern teams, broke exactly even with
the Eastern teams.
The result in the National League
demonstrates to the satisfaction OF
all. except the willfully blind that the
West started the season stronger than
the East. Much was said along tha;
line before the season opened. but
later when Boston and the Phillies
spurted a trifie some of the boys
thought the East really had some
thing
Cards Must Pick Up.
The West in the National put
sinner on the eyes of the East despite
the fact that two Western teams did
not play good base ball. St. Louis
must pick up heap 10 win another
pennant. II shoots off a penny sky
rocket every now and then, but it is
not playing championship base ball.
II il were not the defending team it
would not look so bad. 1t is the de-
Tending team and it does look bad.
Cincinnati of course has been slough
ing around and slumping badly.
Every body expected that the lack
of success of the Reds would keep
the West down. The Western teams
that triumphed were Pittsburgh and
Chicago and both of them were right
smart winners on their trips. Today
the Pirates and the Cubs occupy first
and second places, respectively, in
their circuit.
The showing Of the Western teams
of the American League might appear
TO be good but it isn't. The Western
teams should have done better than
break even with the Eastern clubs

In order to become member of the

made Remember, always, too. that a
bad lie has the immediate effect of up
setting the players mental attitude
and that unless he schools himself
against this. the bad lie, will penalize
himself almost every time when there
is no real need for it at all.
When the lie is bad the player
should understand that accuracy of
swing is to be striven for, not dis
tance with the ball, To seek great dis
tance from a bad lie is to make a
double mistake, when one mistake

Bear in mind that with bad lies you

toward the ball as YOU swing. Or. if
