C., under the Act of March 3, 1879. editorial When a summer resident wrote last week to com plain about the sportsmanship which had been shown at the softball games, he struck a respondent note. He has been answered, ably we feel, by a member of the Friendship Chapel team and by Eugene Byrd, league president, who has done more than any other individual to make the league the success it is. All three have their points. Although the games are played for fun and recreation, they would be highly uninteresting to watch if neither side cared * who won and if they were played without skill or a spirit of competition. Competition makes the players and fans alike take more pride and interest in the out come. But some players may mistake griping at the um pire, protesting every decision, quarreling with the opposing players and managers, and making a nuis ance of themselves in general, for a competitive spirit. In reality it is nothing more than the poorest type of sportsmanship. Gene Byrd seems to have hit on the proper solution. If any team or player insists on playing this type of game, the league president threatens to remove the player or team’s name from the list of those eligible to compete in the Sunday school league. This would be drastic and need not happen. Play the game hard and to win—but remember that it is only a game and that the umpires have volunteered their services. They don’t compare with major leagurers—but who does? f MI COMMON SINSi ON THt WAT; > jdfk DON'T BE A "LEM” LUBBEP He's the fellow who spoils everybody’s fun (his o included) because be doesn't use ploin common pi sense around boats."

STYLES iIIIIIIItIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII hiiiiihIUIIIIIIMIIIIIHHMIHIII This coming Sunday, July 4. will mark the beginning of another quarter in the life and work of almost all Protestant Churches. The work and worship of any church quarter is usually begun with an observance of the Sacra ment of the Lord’s Supper. This is the time when the local church and the Christians of the world gather about the Lord’s Table to remember the atoning work of our Saviour. One of the greatest themes and one of the most glorious facts in human and Divine history is the atoning work of our Lord. It might well be called the bright side of the darkness which sin brought into the world. It is the fact of the Atonement which makes us strong in faith when faced with the judgment of God. It is the joy of the Atonement that gives us courage when we would be filled with fear. It is the glory of the Atonement that helps us to look beyond the clouds of sin and sad ness and see there the beauty and the brightness of God’s unending love. The death of Christ on the Cross of Calvary was the greatest tragedy in all the world. Yet, it was the greatest victory, the greatest triumph, in all the world. It was that event on Golgotha’s hill that made man and God “at one-ment.” Christ reconciled us to God. I talked with a man not long ago who said: "I do not see how one man could save the whole world by dying on a cross.” Christ could make atonement for the sins of the whole world because He was God and man—the God-man. He was the son of Mary and the Son of God. He perfectly repre sented man in His death because he had kept perfectly the law of God concerning man. In His death Christ satisfied the divine justice of God because He was the Son of God. The Atonement gives to the be liever justification, that act of God which pardons all- our sins and makes us righteous in His sight. The Atonement gives the believer adoption, that act of God’s grace which receives us into the number and gives us the right to the privileges of sons of God. The Atonement gives the believer glorification, that God-given priv elege of some day being with and like the Lord of glory. Every believer should find his way to his church on this coming Sunday morning and there par take of the Sacrament which our Lord instituted that we might re member his atoning work in our behalf.
