Cardinal Gibbons Expresses
View of Americans as He
Sees Them Today.
BEGIN IN THE SCHOOLS.
AMERICANS SHOULD NOT LET RE-
LIGiOUS TEACHINGS DIR o.
FROM INSTITUTIONS OF LEARN
ING-HE IS OFF FOR ROME.

New York, July 20.-While travel
ing from Baltimore to New York prior
to his departure for Europe on the
steamer Koenig Albert today, Cardinal
Gibbons talked of politics and moral
conditions of the United States and
gave his remedies for the situation.
Among other things he said:
Il am much concerned over the po-
litical conditions in this country.
There seems such a gradual trend to-
ward unrighteousness in the great
masses of people in some respects
that thinking men must realize that
the problem must be met without de-
lay.
There is no politics without NOR
atty. There is no morality without
religion and without religion there is
no God. The public school is the only
place to begin. There are so many
cunning little schemes always being
devised by atheists, unbelievers and
non-christians TO put God out of the
public schools that the authorities of
this country in every state should ex-
clude atheists and non-christians from
any O1llCeS vi the country.
And what is the plan" was asked
Separate the public schools of the
country. Let each denomination main
tian teachings can inculcate the love
tan teachings can inclucate the love
of God into the little hearts of the
children while teaching them other
things"
"And the exnense"
Let it be borne by the state The
funds and each school given it's por-
ton OF the funds.
I'm politics today" continued the
cardinal, men will sell their votes
for dollar and half. Men are NOM
mated and elected who are unfit
Thinking becomes subservient to OBJ
eying the orders of boss" Continu-
ing he said:
No matter who is elected I do not
fear for my country's welfare l have
perfect confidence in the people. But
the duty that confronts the next presi-
dent is great. The divorce laws should
be made national issue and revised
by congress in such a manner to stop
this wholesale divorce. That is strik-
ing at the roots of the family and
there Is where the fight for better
things must be made. No matter
whether it was in the platform or not
1t should be made a national ISSUE
At the North German Lloyd pier
Cardinal Gibbons was Joined by Arch
Bishop Farley, Father Lee, Father
O'Donovan, Bishop Fly of Detroit and
Bishop O'Connell of Washington and
fifty or sixty prelates many of whom
continued on the trip. When question.
ed as to his first visit Cardinal Glib
bons said:
This is my first visit to the Pope
In five years. l shall go direct to
Rome and spend some time there. The
last time l saw the Pope was during
the conclave which elected him five
years ago.
Cardinal Gibbons and his associates
are taking with them to Rome what
is known as Peters Pence, the annual
collection of money made by Catholic
churches in this country and forward
ed to the Vatican.

BIG EXPENSE TO
KEEP WHITE HOUSE
ST 900 a Week Will Have to Be
Spent During the Next
Fiscal Year.
ESTIMATE is PREPARED.
ARMY ENGINEER c. S. CROMWELL
STATES SEVERAL REPAIRS
SOON.

Washington, July 2O.-It is the Off
cial view of Colonel C. S. Bromwell,
the army engineer in charge of the
White House, that it will be necessary
for the American people to spend
$1,000 a week during the next fiscal
year to keep the home of the president
in a habitable condition.
The upkeep of the house during the
current fiscal year is S673 and a few
pennies over each week. But things
are getting shabby. The children have
been using the chairs to build choo-
choo trains; they have placed their
hands on the paper in the red, blue
and green parlors, and in some mystic
rious way large piece Of the stucco
was broken out of one of the columns
in the reception hall.
Colonel Cromwell thinks the chairs
should be sent to the upholst erers
new paper put on the walls and the
whole interior done over with fresh
paint and enamel
The paper on the wall Of course is
caded silk. The upholstering on the
Sevres designed chairs is also of the
finest. The Colonel figures it will
cost $4,000 to do absolutely necessary
work. In submitting his estimate to
the secretary of the treasury he re-
marked that the annual appropria-
ton of $4,000 is barely enough to
keep the house from going to rack
and ruin. The $4,000 asked for Is
put under the head of Extraordinary
REPAIRS"

Glassboro, n. J., July 20.-Charles
Hemphill, a young man whose home

believed, saved his life.
Hemphill hired a team and lure
the girl from her home. When her dis
appearance was noted hundreds of
persons began a search, but nothing
was seen or heard of her until nearly
midnight, when Hanley Beckett sum
mer cottager at Pitman heard screams
and, leaving his home, came across
Hemphill and the child. Beckett de-
manded an explanation and Hemphill
fled
A little later Hemphill was captured

of the temper of the crowd and it was

give him an immediate hearing. AT

Sleep

Sleep is natures re-
building period, when the
energy used by the brain,
muscles and organs is re-
newed. If you lose sleep,
your system is robbed of
the strength sleep should

sleep multiplies this loss
until you become a phys
zeal wreck. DIR. Miles,
