ing of three CHEERS" 7 am re-
minded of an incident in Catholic
church in Chicago some years ago.
Three Protestant ladies had called
at the church during a meeting that
was being held in furtherance of
some charitable purpose in which
they were interested, and when they
came down the aisle, all the pews
being occupied, the priest in charge
said to on attendant, "Three chairs
for the Protestant ladies'" The at
tendant misunderstood, and called
out, "Three cheers for the Protes-
tant ladies!" The cheers were given
with will, and it was all the holy
father could do to stop the exhuber-
ant reception before the attendant
could call for a "tiger."
