Its victory last week over Ana

although the big score was some
thing of surprise, but yesterdays
game against Centrals defending
champions was rated tossup. The
Vikings weren't even able to make
it close as Eastern blasted out a
26-1 victory on % hits, while Clint
(Brother) Speiser was limiting Cen
tral to five safeties.
That big total was only one of the
three surprises produced in yester-
days series tilts. Anacostia upset

1.-The hour Of harmony

shall need to understand what
Love is. Love Is Goa, and this
Love is Life. Love is ever-present
good, forever unfolding. Simply
to state, however, that God is
Love, without honestly endeavor-
ing to express that Love. is not
enough. Each opportunity to
manifest loving-kindness and
thoughtfulness should be seized
and effectively used, else the true
spirit Of Christianity may be lost.
The recognition OF Love as the
very source and substance of our
being, as the motivating influence
in our thinking, enables us to frus-
trate every attempt Of evil to par.
alyze clear thinking and right act
ing. Love lived unmasks evil, even
as q light shows forth objects
hidden In the darkness. Love mol
only unmasks but extinguislles
every phase Of error.
To prove errors llnrcality one
must understand tie impersonal
nature OF evil as we'll as the i'm
personal nature of rood. To call
one man good and another evil
shows utter lack OF the under
standing Of true being. Jesus
forcefully rebukcd this tendency
when he said TO ore who called
him good Master" (Matthcw
1916, ~: "Why callest thou me
good7 there is none good but one,
that is, God" Good is infinite.
hence not personal possession
of anyone. Likewise evil, The sup
posititious opposite of good, is
never person, but is a lniscon-
ception of true being. To hate or
condemn individuals will not
bring about "the hour OF har-
mony"; but 10 draw q clear-cut
line in our thinking between error
and man is TO strike at the very
root OF the mesmerism which
would hold mankind forever in
its grasp.
Think what will occur the world
over when we separate error from
man and refuse 10 harbor false
concept Of man, one which would
call forth llatredl Actually, there
is no material man who can be-
come a medium for hatred and
thus obstruct our vision Of Loves
perfect manifestation of itself.

ual is to love and to be loved OF
