CORE CHEERFUL GIVING ;
URGED BY PASTOR SOT
Subject of the Morning Sermon at
the Christian Church Waa the
Story of the "Widow's Mite"
Do the Best You Can"
Pastor Bernard P. Smith, of the
Gordon Street Christian church took
his text from Mark 12:41-44. This
passage is the story of the Widow's
mite, and Mr. Smith called his con
gregation's attention to the; necessity
of each individual doing his or her
best." Cheerful giving, Mr. Smith
said, meant1 in the true , inter
pretation of the original Greek, giv
lng with hilarity and not grudgingly.
Very few people, he thought nthei
Very few people, he thought, in the
churches were giving to the Lord's
work in anything like the proportion
that they should. Especially was this
true In the rural churches, where ser
vices were only held about once or
twice a month, and the planters who
pould well afford to give several hun
dred dollars a year for the support
of their churches, thought they had
fully discharged - their, obligations
when they dropped in a dime or two
at the monthly services. Mr. Smith
attributed the lack of giving largely
to the fact that the members of the
churches did not love God as they
should. He pointed out that people
were anxious to give presents and do
things that would please those they
loved. J
In the outset Mr. Smith spoke about
the dancing school, which he said he
had observed from the papers was to
be conducted here, and he asked that
none of his people patronize the
school, for said he "nothing good can
come of it." ,

New York, Feb. 20. New York is
to see its first $2 moving picture show
this week. - Broadway first-nighters,
whose tastes have been satiated with
pretty girls and twinkling toes lor a
moon or two, are wondering if the
promoters can get away with it
By an arrangement with Klaw and
Erlanger, D. W. Griffith will take over
the 'Forty-Second street theater for
the production, which is "The -Birth
of a Nation." It is a complete work
ing out of the contributory themes in
American history on which Thomas
Dixon founded his novel and play,
"The Clansman." Over 18,000 people
were employed in the making of the
picture. The promoters say it is "the
most stupendous undertaking of the
kind the world has ever known."
Holbrook Blinn starred in a new
play which opened at the Booth, last
night It was "The Trap," by Rich
ard Harding Davis and Jules Eckert
Goodman, and succeeded Winthrop
Ames' prize play, "Children of the
Earth," which ended its career at the
beginning of the week.
Besides Blinn, Martha : Hedman,
Tully Marshall, Elaine Hammerstein,
Riley Hatch, and half a dozen others
of note are in the cast of "The Trap,"
which is a melodrama of more or less
stirring variety.
:. "Maid in America" has already got
ten under way at the Winter Garden,
and, with its pretty girls and music
that is tunefun in spots, is drawing
big houses.
Speaking of melodrama, there's a
rip-snorting ;thriller at The Comedy
these nights "The White Feather."
It's war, war from start to finish, and
the scenes are gloriously full of both
British and German spies. There's a
neatly contrived war love theme, too.

REACTION IN BASEBALL-
FINANCE NOW AT HAND
By HAL SHERIDAN, .
(Written for the United Press)
New York, Feb. 22. That old be-
whiskered gent who back in the
stone ages somewhere announced that
every action has its reaction must
have been looking into the dim and
misty future at the 1915 ' baseball
chaos. Certain it is that the reaction
of frenzied finance in our national
pastime is here. Never was a thing
more fully demonstrated than at the
recent meeting of National League
magnates here.
Thirty-two berths in the National
League occupied last year will be va
cant this year. That means a saving
of from $75,000 to $100,000 to the
magnates and the blighting of thirty-two
aspiring youngsters' hopes.
For the moguls decreed that no club
should carry more than twenty-one
men from May 1 to September 1. Last
year they were allowed to pay travel
ing expenses of twenty-five.
Thirty-two jobs' have been sudden
ly snatched away from ball players.
Friends of O. B. lay the blame on the
Feds. Federal adherents, quick to
resent anything of the sort, claim that
it is merely the result of hard times,
and deny absolutely that the Feds,
are responsible for anything that
would take anything away from the
sun-burned athletes.
. Be that as it may, the retrench
ment days are here. " Ball players a
few months ago held up the Federal
ogre as a means of drawing fat con
tracts from their O. B. bosses. Now
their bosses tell them if they can help
themselves by taking the hurdle, go
to It That is what President James
Gaffney of the champion Braves told
Leslie Mann at the National meeting.
Mann wanted $3,500; Gaffney offer
ed $3,000 and refused to budge.
