A Word of Advice.
To the Editor of Tan 'Pos2 ;
I am sorry to see, by a recent issue
of Ties Post that a game of baseball was
played on the Salt Worlrs park one Sun-
day afternoon, • It is almost beyond
comprehension that in a community
such as this that Christian sentiment
among the boys is so low that ' they
would or
s regardless f the law g of God
as to lend themes] res to the polver of
Sates by dishonoring themselves; their
parents and 11 Obristiau co 't
mmttnh y. My
dear boys let this be your lost stets in the
downa'ned course to perdition, .fionor
Yourselves by honoring Gotl, Look to it
higher destiny.
