Marriage by the clergy was first posi-
lively forbidden in the year 1074 by
Pope Gregory VII. The controversy,
however, which had been going on for
centuries on that subject was not alto
gether settled by Gregory's decree. The
council of Trent in 1903 was the &C.
clesiastical body which formally pro-
hibited priests from forming marriage
alliances. That permanently settled
the matter.

Rye is curious old place, and Of

quarins. two very different tribes.
Once It was seaport and strong
fortress. Its Ypres Tower, which used
to dominate both town and sea, is still
standing to remind one Of William
of Ypres, who built 1t centuries ago.
But the citizens have mostly forgotten
him, and call their medieval forti-
fcation the "Whypress" Tower with.

the tower no longer frowns on the
sea, but looks over a mile and half
Of marshes between 1t and the chan

"Kensington Girls Give People a Royal
Good Time Friday Evening.

Since Friday evening large num-
Der of people in the Logan Seventh
ward are willing TO swear by" an Or
ganiZation OF young ladies there
known as "The Kensington Girls.
AT the meeting house the evening
named, these young ladies, numbering
about fifteen, gave the people Of the
ward one Of the most delightful en-
tertainments that has been their por-
tion in long time. A dance was in
dulged in, then program of games,
graphophone selections, candy hunt,
and splendid supper.
The dance occupied the early part
OF the evening, and then the young
ladies in uniform appeared on the
scene and sang song very appro-
pirate TO the occasion. That old game
"Three Deep" resulted in some fun,
then followed the graphophone enter,
tainment. The candy hunt was a
great feature, two boxes OF candy be-
ing hidden and the visitors instructed
to find them. II was provided that
the finders should deliver a stump
speech and sing song, On this &C
count some hunted slowly, but most
rushed pell neil in search of the boxes
