Hartford City defeated llungtington in a professional game at Hartford City last Sunday, 7-0, and the Great Lakes naval training station eleven downed the Michigan City American Legion team, Monday. 7-0. If the scores of the first games of tlje season arp that close there ought to be a lot of scoreless ties before the curtain drops. Did you knew that the Yellow Jackets scored g total of 2J7 points to their opponents 34 lust year? 'g'Fact. Anderson high school is to have a football team this fall. Wa’il bet opr best lead pencil that the Ander eonites won't get farther than runnepsup for the state title. Now Stonebrakep denies that he is going to coach at C. C. H. S- thia fall. Seems like it is a bad time for any school to be without a coach. The Yellow Jackets pry off the lid of their season at Portland on September 9. The locals won two games from the Jay county lads last year and are out to take this year's contest. They won the first game last year, 15-7 and the second, played on the Portland gridiron, 24-0. Lest we forget,—Portland beat us in track last spring, 63 to 36. Up apd at 'em gang. Local Athletes Take Notice.'!!

E. Sunday School took a different view from that pf various commutators, wfie viewed Mark's j epnduct as a i|qi|tey, or a.upward, or a homesick or timid individual who pould not travel the pace set by Paul. |t is evident that Raul »a» disappointed. There is no evidence that Mark wished to go with Paul and Baruabus on their further missionary tours. Mark was clear headed and bad a clear conception of what be wished to do. Both Paul aud Mark were educated. Paul with his great zeal would handicap Mark as he djd Baruabus. Peter was in need us an interpreter aud Mark tilled the bill. H wan Uwe at drat that be

heard Peter tell tho story of the Great Teacher of Galileo. This story was written by Mark and is one of our four gospels. It is I so well written that H- G. Wells places the book second only to the book of Isaiah. Mr. Wells is a great historian and has readj extensively and hip opinions are worth consider-{ ing. Paul's writings are great but i they do not dim the luster of the bopk of Mark. A few years proved to Paul that Mary was wise in working with Peter. Paul openly confessed to the efficiency of M ar k- They had divided during their work but' stood together under the influence of the spirit. There is no room for critU cistu- They did not try to divide the church to further their persona! interests. Peter, Paul, Barnabas. Mark 1 aud Biles continued their lives of ' sacrifice until their careers were climaxed by martyrdom. It ip different today. We have two hundred and two Protestant denominations. j Oqr leaders in theology i gre trying to divide these denominations into Liberal and Fundamentalists. This would not be the first division among the followers of Christ. The first division was between Judas and the other eleven. You can guess ' which was Liberal and which wag
