If it hadn’t been for that one bad inning in the game with Petrolia here on September 12th, the local Hurons would be in the semi-finals now. Last Saturday the Tribe made the long jump tu the Oil Town and gave a con­ vincing display to beat the home- lowners 8-6. Only some very unfor­ tunate breaks gave the Hard-Oils the game here, but nevertheless it goes to their credit and a third game must be played. The Petrolia management made the locals a very enticing offer to play the final in Petrolia and as the Hurons are down considerable financially on the season it was de­ cided to accept their offer. However none of the boys have any qualms about taking on the Hard-Oils on . uivu nmu>. »»•» - - - - I have just as good a chance of winning FALL FAIR NEXT WEEK Meet and greet your friends at Wingham Fall Fair next Thursday, Oct, 1st.

Medical science during the past number of years, has made discover­ ies that will be of great benefit and the development of this flu vaccine is very important. When one recalls the days of the flu epidemics when people were dying like flies it is a comfort to know that such a catas­ trophe cannot happen again. Those 'in the medical profession are ever on the alert to find something that will stop human suffering. There is of course much to be done yet in preventive research but the important discoveries of the last few years have been wonderful. The above is just another example of the importance of research work. * * ❖ * Queen Mary may attend the Cor­ onation next year even though there is not royal precedent for her to do so.

Let does not spread second-baseman's head to score Fred. McHattie then tossed out Doran. The Indians put it on ice in the eighth with the help of a couple of wild pitches. Mellor scratched a hit to open with and advanced to second on a wild pitch and then took third while Alexander was throwing .Peter­ son out. Bill Tiffin tjien rolled a slow one to short and took second when McHattie threw low to the plate, Mellor scoring. The first ball Har­ rison threw Somers was a wild pitch, moving Tiffin to third and Harrison out of the ball game. Johnston took his place on the mound and forced Somers to roll to short but Tiffin scored on the out. Doran then hit a long double to right-centre but Thompson struck out to end the Tribe’s scoring for the day. The Braves showed signs of crack­ ing open again in the ninth but tight­ ened up to allow but one run this time. Duggan singled to right to start the ninth but was forced by McHattie who very nearly hit into a double­ play. McHattie took second unmol­ ested and scored on an error by Bill Tiffin. Howlett hit one on Mellor’s side of second base, near the bag, Fred knocking it down. Tiffin retriev­ ing it quickly, tossed it high to first, the ball getting away from his bro­ ther, Joe. However, Johnston lined to Somers and Joe Tiffin gathered in Morrison’s pop fly for the final out and the Braves ran jubilantly off the field. next three months take up Christian missions in Southern Europe. But when the Lord had commis­ sioned His disciples to carry the gos­ pel to rhe whole world, He gave them another command, equally plain: not to start on this work until something vital had happened, “Tarry ye in the City of Jerusalem,” Fie said, “until ye’ be endued with power from on high." He explained that they would “receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you,” and only then could they be His witnesses as effective missionaries at home and abroad. The first lesson in this course told us of this vital, unique event. The disciples and other believers obeyed the Lord and waited; and on the day of Pentecost the Holy Spirit came upon them all in a new way, to dwell in the true Church of Christ forever. The vacillating and cowardly disciples were transformed into new men of faith and courage. They were mis-' sionaries now indeed; and when they preached, souls were saved. True Christian missionary preach­ ing always has' two different results. It antagonizes and angers some; it j eaches adn wins others. For the gos­ pel of Christ never appeals to men’s pride; it never flattens or praises; it convicts men of sin, exposes their de­ gradation, and offers them the only Saviour. Those who are ready to re­ cognize their sin, their lost condition, and their need, of a Saviour, gladly re­ ceive Christ and are saved. Others arc hardened in their sins, rejecting Christ and even persecuting His wit­ nesses. Exactly these results followed the preaching of the first missionaries. Persecution began right in Jerusalem, before foreign missions began. Soon those who were rejecting God and His Son, and denying that they were sinners and need to be saved, went still further and stoned to death one of the Christian missionaries, Stephen. This intensified persecution simply intensified Christian missions, as the church was scattered abroad through­ out Judaea and Samaria." And the work went on with increasing power. Then a sensational thing occurred, The greatest persecutor of all, Saul, was suddenly converted. And he be­ came the greatest missionary of all, the greatest of the Christian era. Christian missions have often had this result, that the greatest sinners have become the greatest saints. So far Christian missions had been confined to home fields, but when God’s time came for beginning the foreign missionary movement, Saul, later named Paul, was one of the two men chosen by the Holy Spirit Him­ self, the other being Barnabas, They set sail from Northern Syria for an island in the Mediterranean, Cyprus. Foreign missions had begun, and con­ tinued at strategic points in Western Asia, which we now call Asia Minor. Some of the conspicuous experiences of the missionaries were typical of what has occurred ever since and is occurring today. A few men high up in official or social life were led to Christ; that al­ ways happens. “Not many mighty, not many noble, are called,” wrote Paul later, but a few are. One of these was Sergius Paulas, a Roman pro-consul in Cyprus. But other prominent men in high places turned bitterly against the mis­ sionaries—and that often happens.' Iri city after city the Jewish leaders not only peresecuted the missionaries but stirred up the popular feeling against them, so that they were forced to flee. The common people heard the mis­ sionaries gladly, as they had heard the Lord Jesus Himself. Thousands of true converts were made. Certain leaders or priests of hea­ then religions welcomed the Christ­ ian missionaries, and said they were all standing for the some truth, hea­ then and Christians! How history re­ peats itself! This is just what certain leaders of heathen religions are say­ ing today in foreign missionary fields and—worse still—professing Christ­ ians in the homelands are saying it. Paul showed by inspiration that it is a He that means eternal death in­ stead of eternal life. Another falsehood tried to creep in­ to the Early Church—and it has nev­ er stopped trying. It was this: that men arc saved partly by what God does for them, and partly by what they do for God. This mixing law and grace. It is not the gospel, The Church promptly repudiated that falsehood; and later Paul wrote by inspiration: “For by grace are ye' sav­ ed through faith: and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not « of works, lest any man should boast.” (Eph. 2: 8,9.)

A young right-hander named Harrison ■ opposed Pete and except for lack of control, gave a good account of him­ self. The fielding features were sup­ plied by the rival centre-fielders both of whom made good catches against the difficult background of sun and trees. The Braves got away to a running start in the opening session and were never behind thereafter. Bill Tiffin grounded to short for the- first out, but Somers lined a hit to centre. Dot- an walked. Thompson singled to left scoring Somers and putting Doran on third from where he scored on a pass­ ed ball, Thompson taking third. Car­ michael looped one to right field to score Thompson and took second on the throw to the plate. Harrison Jet loose a wild pitch and Mike took third from -where he scored on Joe Tiffin’s single after Chalmers had popped to short. Joe went out, trying to steal second. Petrolia got a pair of gift runs in the second. Mofrison rolled to Bill Tiffin but Churchill and Alexander singled in succession. Tennyson then hit a perfect double-play ball to Mel- . lor but Fred was a little too anxious and let the ball go through his legs to centre field, Churchill scoring and Alexander taking third. 1 he latter al­ so scored when a low third strike got away from Doran, Dick having a hard time to retrieve the ball and throw the batter out at first. Harrison then popped to short. The Hurons also got a gift run in the third. Doran fouled to Tennyson and then Thompson belted a do-uble up against the left-field fence. Car­ michael rolled out to short, 1homp- son being held on tlie bag. Chalmers beat out a toller to third and Thomp­ son moved over there to score on Hay’s error on Joe Tiffin’s roller. Mellor rolled to Howlett who tossed to Harrison covering first for the out. Petrolia made their big threat in the fifth, scoring three runs to tie up the game. Harrison struck out to start off with but.McHattie and How­ lett followed with singles. Johnston then drove a triple up against the fence in left-centre field and scored when Thompson made a bad relay to the plate when he tried to stretch it into a homer. Morrison kept it up with a single but Churchill and Alex­ ander were easy outs to end the rally. The Hurons came right back in the next inning to go ahead again. Joe Tiffin struck out but Mellor reached second on the shortstop’s bad throw of his grounder.

It was spoken at the end of his earthly min­ istry, just before He ascended to hea­ ven. Because He had “all power” He commanded and commissioned His disciples: “Go ye, there, and teach all nations.” “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creat­ ure.” “Ye shall be witnesses unto Me, both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the utter­ most part of the earth.” That His disciples should do this confidently, I boldly, and in divine power, He pro- 1 miscd them: “And, lo I am with you ■ ■ alway, even unto the end of the ■ world.” The Duke of Wellington was once asked whether he believed in foreign ( missions. “What are your marching orders?” answered the Iron Duke, There can be no question as to the marching orders of the Church, given by her commander.
