GOLF
By BILk, KLIsH

When q player is fazl1iliur with 8 course and has played it many times, as each hole comes up to be played, 1t is natural, I think, for him to have in his mind visions of the ways in which he has met trouble on that hole.
 He win remember how he has sliced his second shot into c trap and took . six or seven. Then, as he hits the ball he will be determined tO avoid the trap at all costs. There is then Q part of his concentration taken up with something he ought not to do, and that is so much taken away from the ability to play the stroke correctly. A course is easier the first time played than for the next several rounds, because the player sees only where the shot should finish and there are no: unpleasant recollections com ing up to spoil the shot; he sees only the flag and the green and the hazards are all Q part of the background tn- stead of being in the center of the picture.

JULY 4TH MYTH EXPLODED ASREAL
 BATTLE BEGINS
Yanks and Detroit Series With White Sox Should
 Settle Pennant
By HENRY SUPER

lUnited Press Stan Correspondent)
 New York, Aug. 1-(UP)-The last full mo,th of the 1885 base- ball season began today-a month expected to be packed full of crucial series," with at least three teams in each league battling for a crack at the World Series pot of gold.
 On July 4 the ''Independence Day experts" already were award ing championships to both New York teams but developments dur ing July frightened both races to a point where the bennants still are, anybody's property.
 In the S1 days of July the standings were shaken as if by an earthquake and if the leaders con-; tinue at their present clip the races they were saying would be walkaways will be ding-dong bat ties right to the finish.
 Many Changes
 July saw the New York Yankees drop from first place in the Amer ican League to second, three games behind the Detroit Tigers. It saw the collapse of the Cleveland In- dians and the rise of the Chicago White Sox to within half game of the Yankees and 1-2 away from the Tigers.
 And August finds these three contenders matched in series which will have a definite outcome on the pennant. Chicago plays at Detroit August in the first of these po- tential crucial battles. The Yankees meet the Tigers in Detroit, begin ming August 17, and the Yankees play the White Sox in Chicago starting August 25.
 An even closer race developed in the National League during the month just ended. The New York Giants blew an 1-2 game lead and now rest atop the pack by a mere half game. The St. Louis Cardinals rose from g 1-2 games behind the Giants, grabbed first place for few hours, and now languish in third place, 5 1-2 games behind the New Workers. And the Chicago Cubs, hardly considered contenders at the beginning of the month, rose to within half game of the Giants as July ended.
 Not So Bad
 The Cubs saw their 1I-game win ming streak snapped yesterday when they dropped the second game of double-header to Pitts burgh. 6-5 in Il innings. Chicago had chalked up it's 11th straight in the opener with a Az victory. However, the Cubs gained half game and cut the New York Giants lead to the same amount when the Giants dropped 5-2 decision to the Philadelphia Phillies.
 Brooklyn and Boston divided a double-head the Dodgers taking the first, 5-3, and the Braves the second, 40. The Cincinnati Reds whipped the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-3, in a 10-inning night-game. The Reds nicked Paul Dean for 13 hits.
 The Detroit Tigers increased their American League lead over the New York Yankees to three games by defeating the St. Louis Browns, 9-3, while the Tanks were idle. The Chicago White Sox went to within halS game of the sec ond place Yankees with a GA vic tory over the Cleveland Indians.
 The Boston Red SoX whipped washington's Senators, 6-4.

 New York, Aug 1--(UP)-Notes from a big league press bok:

Ben Chap- man ''pops off" more than any other player on the Yankee team.

Gomez was snared from a Mexican semi-pro tea5n touring this country. .t
 The White Sox have two Poles in the regular lineup, Al Simmons and Tony Piet.... Jimmy Dykes bet Mickey Cochrane a $20 hat be- fore the season that the White Sox wouldn't finish in the cellar, which is another one of the reasons Chi cago plays at its best against De- troit.

Pepper Martin is said to be on the market with a $50, 900 price tag attached. ... Al Eckert, new Cardinals rookie southpaw, comes from the House of David team.

Harvesting Brazil Nuts
Unusually Hazardous Job

Not a harvest in the world is gath
cred under more perilous conditions
than the Brazil nut crop. Before even
arriving within sight of the wild
groves, where these delicacies thrive
in the "green hell" Of Amazonia, the
poems, or native pickers, have to fight
their way through hundreds Of miles Of
swampland, infested with alligators,
swimming snakes, and electric eels,
while in the jungle itself the merest
scratch from Llama, orchid or some
other poisonous plant spells death.
Jaguars are among the lesser perils.
Then, when the tiniest breath Of
wind runs through the giant castanha
trees, so and 100 feet high, on which
the nuts hang in great pods, each
weighing when mature not less than
four pounds, these pods hurtle to earth
with the velocity of bombs. Hundreds
Of natives are thus Drained and MANNED
every season.
The deadly black shells, hastily COL
lected from the forest floor-climbing
the trees would be impossible-are i'm
mediately packed on the backs Of
mules, and carried to the nearest
stream, where they are washed, in
readiness for transport by boat to the
barracao or collecting station. Brazil,
curiously, has no appetite for these
luxury fruits. Great Britain and Amer
lea are the largest importers.-Tit-

The MARYLAND BIBLE SOCIETY'S CORNER
''The Word of Our God Shall Stand Forever

greatly changed from the forms in
which they were first written. The
testimony Of the rocks and the exca-
vations of Psychologists further con-
firm and support the truth of these
ancient records, so that in our day
we may have greater assurance that
we really possess the messages of
Moses and the prophets than has any
age since the Scriptures were first
written.
The most ancient version of the
Old Testament is the Alexandrian
generally called the Septuagint, from
its being claimed to be the work of
seventy, or seventy-two man, who it
is said, translated the Hebrew into
Greek. Whether this great work was
performed within a reasonably brief
period, or extended, through a sue
cession of translators, over a period
of more than a century, cannot be
definitely established. But of one
thing we may be certain the work
was done by scholars, thoroughly ia
miliar with the genius and idioms of
both languages, and that the result
is faithful translation of the spirit
as well as the letter of divine revela-
ton.
The Greek of this version is the
common dialect that prevailed from
the time of Alexander the Great, and
is an early attempt to give to the
people the Scriptures in their own
tongue.
This has been the purpose of every
translation down through the CEN
turtles. For us st. Paul wrote to the
Corinthians, 1st Epistle, 18th Chapter,
9th verse, Except we utter by the
tongue words easy to be understood,
how shall it be known what it spoken"
So it has come to pass that the total
number Of languages and dialects in
which Scripture translation has oc-
Cured now reaches 954, the entire
Bible having been translated into ITS
languages and the New Testament in
374. The other 405 translations have
been made of parts of the Bible, prin-
cipally portions of the New Tesla
ment. Probably now more than 500
of these would be actually available;
for many of these portions have never
been published.
With this brief and altogether in
adequate glance at the great field
of translation, we shall devote our
next message to a discussion of the
influences which prepared the way for
our English Bible, the book which
has of all others influenced our insti-
tutions and furnished the background
of all that is fine in our civilization.

Irritation of Mantle Is
Cause of Pearls Growth

A pearl is a growth in a pearl oys-
ter or other shellfish caused by q per-
sistent irritation of its mantle. The
persistent irritation which causes pearl
formation is usually due to the pres
ence of some foreign matter which has
entered the Shell-SOmetimeS a grain
of sand or a fragment Of broken she'll
Probably in most cases it is the larvae
of parasite worm or a minute crusta-
cean. Whatever the nature of the
cause, the mollusk endeavors to reduce
the irritation by inclosing 1t in a lager
of the same kind of motre of pearl
nacre of which the inside of its shell
is made. Once started, the covering of
nacre continues to grow by the addi-
ton of layer over layer until after a
lapse of years the minute seed pearl
formed may have grown into a pearl
of large size.
AS a natural pearl is q consequence
of the accidental introduction of an
irritant, it would seem that pearls
could be cultivated by merely intro
ducing the irritant by artificial means.
But the successful cultivation of
pearls has proved to be a complicated
process accomplished by the Japanese
only after years of study and expert
ment. The nucleus of the culture
pearl is a small seed pearl or it may
be minute ball of mother of pearl
or other substance This is first in
closed in a sack made from the mantle
of pearl oyster.

Dearest, thou vast mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summers breeze,
Pleasant as the air of evening
As it gloats among the trees.
Peaceful be thy silent slumbers;
Peaceful in thy grave so low
Thou no more will join our numbers,
Thou no more our songs shalt know.
Dearest darling thou has left US,
Here thy loss we deeply feel;
But tits God that hast bereft US,
He can all our sorrows heal.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life has fled;
Then in heaven with joy to greet thee
Where no farewell tears are shed.
Where no farewell tears are shed.
To me you were so very dear,
And to your friends both far and
near,
But now that you have gone away,
We hope to meet you there some
day.
You have gone to heaven away up
there,
Where I know you'll get the best of
care
For there is no sorrow nor any pain.
Farewell dear wife till we meet again.
Farewell dear wife till we meet again.

Changing Civilizations

Jerusalem and the Holy Land have
been violent enough, from the days of
Isaiah and Sennacherib to the present,
but the marks of violence are over
Swallowed by the peaceful reverence
that lies over the land. A crusaders
tower reminds one of the Saracens
and Richard the Lion-Hearted. The
British cemetery recalls the World war.
Jaffa was besieged by Napoleon. But
the most important memories are those
surrounding the many Christian, Jew
ish and Mohammedan shrines. Bethle-
hem, the Mount of Olives, the Garden
of Gethsemane, the Church of the Holy
Sepulchre, the Mosque of Omar, the
Wailing Wall, Rachel's tomb, Bethany,

of changing civilizations. - Chicago
