Asking About the Marathon.
While the Sea Girt relay race was

this column that THE EVENING
STAR would run off a Marathon and
the men who finished in the relay were
told that they would be eligible to run
In the Marathon. Some of the club
runners got cold pedals before the race
came of, leaving others of the team
powerless. Some of these men have
asked me if they could enter even il
their team did back out, and the an
swer is here given, YES" for it would
be an injustice for any of these right
kind of fellows to be barred. | am in

on in our mines, shops and in our
factories, in the offices Of ..our pro-

is circulated among those who. are
discontentet with their position. in
life, whether old or young. The false
doctrine Of rebellion against law both
Of God and country, OF. atheism and
of Socialism, are being disseminated
and discussed widely. The young
men of today can argue Socialism and
put forth it so-called principles in a
very plausible. way. =

SO that they can meet the arguments

they may really know where they

this end they must be real Catholics
