HEIGHT TEAM NEW THREAT IN DEPARTMENT
Messiink Nine
Halls 1895
Champs
BY SID KATZNELL

Yesterdays thunderstorm, &C
companied by a 40-mile-an-houl
wind and torrential downpoul
caused the postponement Of al
Sandlot League baseball games
with the exception Of the Depart
ment Store League, which started
its games in the morning before
the storm came to town.
When the Hechtmen gave. the
champion Blue Flames, Of the
National City League, q battle
last week this department said
that the MeSSink- coached clan
would be the team to beat in the
Department Store League. Yes
terday the Hechtmen came
through with flying colors and
laced S. Kann Sons, last years
champions, 8 to z.
There wasn't anything tluky
about Hecht's victory, as they
were forced to come from behind
to accomplish the feat. Kann'S
grabbed q 7-to-4 lead in the sew
enth when Stewart, who saw ser
vice at first and right field during
the course Of the game, sliced a
homer with two mates on the
sacks.
Hecht'S got one back in the sew
enth, but it wasn't until the
eighth that the F. Street boys &C
tually made their bats shoot fire,
Here's how the Hechtmen won
the game:
Hershey Hersberger, Reds Nc
Menamin and Johnny Mahney
singled In succession. "Stuff" How
ard tied the score with the fourth
hit of the inning with q beautiful
single to center. MesSink and Nc
mercy made it two outs, but Pete
English, Hecht'S fine ShortStop,
shot q singles to right center, driv-
ing In the winning run.
Paul Messink pitched the entire
games for the winners. For the
first four innings MeSSink was in
vincible, letting the opposition
down without q hit. However, as
the game progressed. MeSSink
weakened and was touched for IL
hits during the entire game.
Kann's used two, Bell and Hender-
son.
Palais Royal swamped Lans-
burgh, 16 to Z, in the other league
encounter. Herbert and Baily,
with three bingles apiece were the
outstanding performers for the
R0ya1men.
Opening Day Ceremonies
Yesterday was the opening day
for the Department Store Loop,
and prominent department store
officials officiated in the opening
day ceremonies. They were Charles
B. Dulcan, ST., vice president Of

First Church of Christ, Scientist, Holds Annual
 Session in Boston ELIZABETH CALDWELL
 ELECTED PRESIDENT Various Officers Read En- COuraging Report to
 6,OOO Present

Boston, Mass, June o.--An appeal Co Christian Scientists to work for the demonstration of World Peace, the reading of reports by church O1Ilcers on the various activities of the movement throughout the world and sustained demand for the writ- ingg of Mary Baker Eddy, Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, marked the annual meeting yester. day of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass.
 Election of Mrs. Elizabeth Caldwell T0mli1sOn of Boston as President of The Mother Church was an- nCunced. She succeeds Dr. Frank Q. Colby. Mrs. Tomlinson was born iia Byron, Wisconsin. After gradual. arg from st. Helen's Hall, a well- known Episcopalian private school, nhe received Q remarkable healing fn Christian Science which brought her into the practice of this religion. She was at one time Q delegate ap- pointed by the Governor of Oregon to Q conference of women's organs nations in Paris. Tn 1914 she was in London, England, at the outbreak of tho World War and did service llr1- der Mrs. Herbert Hoover in relief activities.
 The addition of 22 new churches and eight new university organiza- tlCne, making Q total of 2751 branch. e of The Mother Church and 66 college and university organizations, was announced by the Department ne Branches and Practitioners.
 Among new Societies was one formed by the natives in mountain province of the Philippine Islands. They had been holding services over q period of years and this past year came to the point in growth where they were able to go forward as Q branch of The Mother Church.
 Approximately 5000 Christian Sci- entists representing every state in the Union and practically every civ. ilized nation in the world attended tho meeting. The main floor and three galleries were filled within Q siiOrt time after the church doors were opened, the overflow being acc Commodated in the original Mother Church where ampliflers were in- stalled.
 Introducing the theme of World Pace, William P. Mckenzie, for the past year chairman of the Board cs Directors, told the audience, 'aThere is 6 rising demand in the hearts of men for freedom and jus- tiee. can 1t be met by fair dealing? This requires self-government, does

 Mir. Mckenzie designated the way in which peace can be realized, pointing out that when in Q branch church growth has been made to the point that members respect one arl- other and show deference and cour. tesy, work is done in friendliness. May not Q time be coming" he asked, "when in congresses and par- liaments good will of this sort will show like harmonieS and regultsp

Ephesians 4:3.)
 As retiring President Dr. Frank O. Colby declared 1t encouraging to find that Christian Scientists are realizing more fully and more keenly that Christian Science is something more than a glorifled theology; that 1t is @ demonstrable Science; the Science of Being; the Science of true Christianity, that 1t is theology as well as Q Science. It Is mans business to be absolutely obedient to divine Principle, God, to express, or exemplify, the nature of God. Thus he is both religious and sci- entific."
 Following which he introduced Mrs. Elizabeth Caldwell Tomlinson as the new President of The Mother Church.
 Tn her address, Mrs. Tomlinson spoke in somewhat the same vein as MT. Mckenzie, declaring that "the developments o9 this hour in world history are not disheartening to the thinker in Christian Science. These developments corroborate and fulfill our Leaders prophecy (Miscellany

Shortly After Midnight It Began Rolling Into City;
 Seven Herds of Elephants Are Included

Earth in 60 years has approached the pigmies in popular appeal.
 Huge tents soon loomed against the sky. The great canvas city seemed literally to balloon into place. Under the big top, teams hitched to cables hoisted tons upon tons of Tiggings into the air.
 Tn the menagerie, men, elephants and teams were working swiftly placing the cages, dens and corraB of wild beasts in their positions in vast oval, while other groups were erecting the tepees of the Plain Ir1- dians--the Indian village of Col. Tim Mccoy, the screens great western star who brings with him his Indian village and his own wild west, irl- including cowboys, cowgirls, Cos- sacks, Mexican vaqueros, Australian bushrangers and Sioux and Black feet Indians. Col. Mccoy, plains- man and cavalry officer, U. s. Army this Reserve, will be seen in the main performance as well as in the wild west after-show.
 Among the scores of features in this seven-ply performance are the renowned Naittos, the great Royal Bokaras, the Walkmirs, the RoHieos, the Buemrangs, the Antaleks, the Machines, the Imperial, Viennese, the Willos, the Torrence-V -Victcrias, the 6purgats, famous European nov- city acts making their American debuts; the largest all-girl aerial ballet ever presented, with sixty are tistes, headed by Jennie Rooney; the famed Otaris, fiying from their aer- ial cross, 1ianied by the renowned Flying Comedies, with Antoinette, multiple sOmersaulting star, and the Flying Comets; Mile.

Needing no Locarno pact or the ofiices of the Council of the League of Nations to insure harmony, Q host of peoples from all lands came to town early today, accompanied in many instances by representative wild animal delegations from their countries, even unto the almost mythical pigmy elephants of dark est Africa, the fabulous tiny ttlskers that are not babies, but years sI1ce full grown, although standing little higher than large collie dogs. The magic that welds this travelling Babel and Noah's Ark cargo into happy concord and incredible effi- ciency is inherent in the worlds mightiest amusement title-Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey, the Greatest Show on Earth, which will give performances at 2 and 8 ?. rl., today. at West Main street.
 Shortly after daylight 1t began rolling into the city on its four long, solid -steel railroad trains, with its 1900 people from all over the globe, it's seven herds of full-sized ele- phants, 1909 menagerie animals, 700 horses, 3l great tents, including the largest big top ever built, stretching over seven rings and stages, Q sweeping hippodrome track and e1l- circling grandstands seating 16,OOO persons.
 Tn Q very few minutes after the first strings of PullmaIls, silver painted stock and flat cars were spotted on parallel sidings, hundreds of cages and red wagons, drawn by six and eight-horse teams in jing- ling, silver-plated harness, were on their way to the circus grounds.
 Bound for the big top backyard was the herd of African pigmy ele- phants, the shows sensational new super-feature importation. These tiny huskers- -Nuba, Bull and Loka range in age from 20 to 4S years, and are of three tusker tribes, the Tqanda. the Sudan and the Congo, with tlislEs from il inches to 40 inches in length, practically curving to the ground in the latter state. They have, of course, been full grown for years, and they compose the first herd ever seen in the civil- ized world. NO feature brought to America by the Greatest Show on we say with grateful hearts that 1t has been c good year." he said.

Christmas Seals issued by the Mime

unknown to themselves, their parents
or their teachers. Among the $1,000
who were tested under Christmas Seal
auspices in 1885, Is per cent were found
to be infected in varying degrees with
tuberculosis.
some OF the thousands of others who
We're not tested are certain to be in
need of immediate care and constant
watching to avoid an otherwise certain
breakdown from disease later on.
The only way to conquer tuberculosis
according to the physicians, is to find
out where it exists; and the only way to
IND out where it exists is to test all
young people, especially since young
people are its chief victims-by the
Mantoux tuberculin skin test which in
dicateS almost infallibly whether or not
any tuberculous infection is present.
When that important fact is known.
A-ray and other methods can be used
effectively to find out where the in

be taken, then, to gaurd the child from
illness. When that important fact is
not known, the child may be and too
often is allowed to over-strain himself
at school or to remain in constant
association with an open infective case
OF adult tuberculosis.
A day comes when, without apparent
warning, the child is overtaken with a
