A ( ALL FOR ROOTERS.
Unvrh.ill. the national traine, is rot
to tie dfiiii'il the fans in Alliance this
Wiii-on, pnnideil there urn enough of
them to pay the expenses of a tesim.
l-'er the past three or four years we've
had city basehall teums, i.ut time
husn't wn sull'ie-ie-nt money a i'll.i'.it;
to make it an all-salaried ii'lair. As
a result, two three players have
been placed e.n the salary Kill, and Jie
treasury at the e n. I of the s a. on has
leen euite us Hat as the lace meet
account.
This ve.ir. if ever, is the time for
the fans to wt out and loot. The
irettinfc out is fully as important as
the rootinjr. Without the latter it s
difficult to win games, hut unless there
is attendance this year, there won't be
atiy games to root for. The young
fellows who arc organizing the ba. re
ball club this year are live wires'. They
like the sport and they want to put Al
liance on the baseball map. They're
willing to devote their time for the
chunce of making a little money, but
unless public support is forthcoming,
the team will die a-borning.
The plan, as unnounced, is to have
baseball games on Sunday ami holi
days. There will be no money asked
of the business men no elonations
of any kind. Preliminary expenses
will be paid from the procoeels of a
benefit dance, scheduled for April 2!),
at which the cost will be a elollar and
a dime war tax, and the entertainment
will be worth every cent of the cot.
There will be admission charged to the
earnes, of course, but the association
hopes to keep it down to 35 cents if
possible.
In atlelition to all this, the baseball
enlist in nn army to save the world.
Jesus Christ in one notable passage
has defined very clearly his cemcep
tion of eme radical difference between
paganism and Christianity: i
"Ye know that the rulers ef the
Gentiles lord it ove r them, and their
grent ones e-.crc.-e authority over
t hem. Not so . hall it l.e among yeu;
but whatsoever would ln-eeime gnat
among you shidl be your niiiii.t'M ;
and what eiever would lie first air.ong

Je us Christ was not a reformer.
Concerning the forms of social eirjr: n
ization of his day lie had very little to

One af the worst result of the war
was tin wave of hysterical, un-Arneri-can
in'o'crance. Applied to newspa
pers, it works out this way:

Mr. llavs observed, and .-o in Iikei'""- on some important political or
measure is the responsibility. That
responsibilty is accepted."
The i perch from which this flota
tion was made took a couple hours'
time and cost the "movie patrons of
the country several hiindri-d elollar-;,
if we allow William a few hours' time
for preparat'on. This speech repre
sent a couple of mon'.hs work. Many
men have accepted rcspemMhilitie's in

it move gracefully.
And now, afte r a month's re. t from

W ILLIAM WORKS AGAIN.
Some weeks ago, purely for the fun
of it, we got to figuring on the salary
paid by the moving picture interests of
the country to Will H. Hays, former
chairman of the republican national
committee. Mr. Hays was rewarded
for his political services by being made
postmaster general. After holding
elown the $12,000 a year job for a few-
months, he was made dictator of the
movies. His duties were not maele
public, save in a general way. The sal
ary, however, was noiseel abroad with
true press agent efficiency, and it
amounteel to $150,000 a year. This,
spreael over the year, amounts to ap

Hays was right. The movies have
a great opportunity, and a great re
sponsibility. If William means busi
ness, he's on the right road. If not,
then conditions may get so rotten that
the public will have toshow tfhat it

A SOCIAL C.OSPEL.
Lyman Abbott, the venerable sage
of the Outleo't, in a rece it issue of
thut magazine, gives some advice to
a minister who has .-ought his counsel
in regard to t'.ie kind of sen.ions that
he shou'd preach to his congregation.
The minister gave it as his belief that
it is imperative to preach a social gos
pel as well as an individual ore. He
wiys: "Now as a Christian minister
what can 1 say ? How far may I go?
Am I to touch upon methods as well
as spirit? Am I merely to emphasize
fundamentals of character or apply
them to the nuesCons of social adn
economical life?"
Mr. Abbott's reply gives an exceed
ingly clear laterpretat.on ot lus i,iea
of the iroal of vh.i suece-.-ful church
and the worth-while pie;.cher. 11
says, in part:
For the last century or century and
a hall the church Ir.is Uh n returning
to the idea of the gospel inculcated by
tbp me. phots in the OM 'I estament
and by Christ in the New Testament.
Jt is primarily a social go-pel. It is
true that the Christian religion pre
pares men here for their unknown life

the Christian church is to inspire men

you won't find greater satisfac

Studebaker SPEClAL-SiX.
That's why so many people who buy
entirely from the standpoint of satis
faction, drive the SPECIAL-SlX.
Satisfaction with a SPLClAL-SlX is due
to its dependable chassis, its Stude-baker-built
body, and the complete
ness of the equipment.
This equipment includes an eight-d.iy
clock, one-picoe,rain-proof windshield
with parking lights in lower corners of
windshield base, and windshield wiper.
It includes cowl ventilator controlled
fronidash.tonneau light with extension
cord, transmission lock which is oper
ated by same key that locks the tool
conioartment in the left front door-
pocket as well as the ignition, and a
large rectangular plate ylass in the rear
curtain.
There are many other features that
would be considered unusual in cars
of much higher price. Let us tell you
some other points of SPECIAL-SlX
superiority.
The mechanical excellence of the
SPECIAL-SlX has proved its satisfaction
in the hands of thousands of owners.
Its 50-horsepower motor provides great
resources of smooth flowing power
and wonderful flexibility. Its perfected

quiet and easy.
