Tonner Deserves a Break

THE Saint-Harllngen game sun
day at Harlingen Snould draw 4
record crowd. Practically eli the
San Benito fans Will be on hand,

Brownsville, a fifth place club,
draws mucn better crowds at its

its Fair Park diamond. Here's hop

WITH BILL YODER'S vicious war

order, Topper will be loaded for
bear when he goes up against the
San Benitto aggregation. on paper,
this looks like the best game that
the Valley league has seen this sea-
son and II Is undoubtedly the most
important that has been played so
far. AS stated above, 1t will likely
prove the turning point IN the VAL

have been grabbing off the spot

Here, too, is a great Murillo, while

Here, too, may be seen the strangely

of them. A good old bishop, while

his mule unguided and knowing the

back and knocked. with his fore feet

Religious Questions
DISCUSSED BY
Dr.. S. Parkes CGdmdn.

/ In proportion, then, as we meet Christ's
demands we are His disciples.
This is the second deciding factor,
the true. gospel and the sufficient creed.
| Churches exist to explain and expand
| it II contains far-reaching implications
which they should explore. But every
! thing else is secondary to the verities
I have stated and Cardinal Newman
was right in saying that the proof of
apostolic succession in the church is
her power to produce saints. They gain
their divine sonship and achieve their
service for others by enthroning Christ
at the center of their lives.
@. Did not the religious instinct in
man originate from fear of the un-
known? Were not all the major reli-
gious movements in the world based on
fear of punishment or the hope of re-
ward. either in this life or in the life
to come?
A. Petronius wrote "Timor fecit
deos" (Fear made the gods') and the
gibe has been repeated for nearly 1000
years. But why should humble origin
discount later excellence? Is a man less
man because certain theories allege
his emergence from a lower order?
Surely he is what he is here and now
regardless of his beginnings.
AS with man, so with his religion.
The issue is not how it originated, but
what 1t has come to be and NAV vet be
Doubtless fear had much to do with
primitive faiths But the emotion of
fear never exists alone. It implies
power of conception, curiosity and the
aolllty TO establish relations with what
is feared. The vast capacities of the
human spirit may have been evoked by
rear. But they presently surpassed its
Ia ,I,nIo
OF love, trust and aspiration as their
realm.
So what began in fear issued in con-
hdence, and what began in curiosity is
sued Ill solid achievement The scheme
was evolutionary. Since in any eyoly-
ing process the beginning can be under
stood only in the light of the end, why
dwell on origins" exclusively? Not
what we were, but what we are; not
whence we came, but whittier we go, are
the primary questions.
AS to rewards and puniShments, any
psychologist will tell you that we seek
some good in all our activities. Why do
you work, eat, play or do anything?
Because you desire satisfaction and
would avoid difficulty. Rewards and
puniShmentS simply mean that certain
courses of life bring health of body and
mind, and others involve disaster to
both. Religion follows these lines be-
cause 1t is a divine energy in normal
human life.
Philosophy is the proper agency for
that Interpretation. And on the whole
philosophy inclines to the idea of the
soul as invisible" ''unponderable" and
"unextended," manifesting itself in the
visible" the "ponderable" and the Eek
tended" This position is still valid be-
cause it is the only ineligible explana-
ton of the facts of our spiritual and
and Spirit" MacDougall on Mind and
