POPE TO PROTEST
Visit of Prince of Monaco to Italian King May Cause
 Rupture.
THREATS ARE DIsREGARDED
Vatican's Prohibition Regarding \isit of Catholic Rulers .lo-
 lated.

Rome, Feb. 6-The forthcoming WISH of the prince of Monaco to Rome anu the arrangements for his entertainment by King Victor Emmanuel, are causing wide discussion here. The vatican IS especially interested in the announce ments so far made inasmuch as 1t has placed a prohibition upon all CathoHc rulers visiting the Quirinal during any sojourn they may make in Rome. The case of the prince of Monaco Is con sidered all the graver by the church authorities because of the fact that he has diplomatic representative accred- tied to the Holy See and has been re- sarded as having such close relations l with the Vatican it was some time ago asserted that if the pope should decide | to leave Rome for the benefit or hl2 health, the prince would send his yacht to transport the Pontlff to Monaco
 The persuasion and threats of the vatican having failed to prevail against the princes plans. it Is now officially announced that he will arrive in Rome February 20 and will the same day visit the king and queen and the queen mother The second day of his stay will be spent at a hunt with the king and on February 22 the prince will de- liver lecture on oceanography. sover' ing the results of his more recent eX- plorations in the north. The evening o' the 22nd the prince will attend the state banquet at the quirinal and, it Is an nounced, will take his departure the following day without asking an audi ence of the pope, In this event it is likely the vatican will issue note of protest to all the powers, as was done on the occasion of President Loubct's visit to Rome.

ON SUNDAY SCHOOL Religious Educational Fedora tion Holds Instructive
 Session.
c. E. UNDERWOOD TALKS
Professor Charles r. Kent Presidcs and Gives Talk on Financial Con
 dition of Society.

A very interesting conference of Sun day school workers was conducted by the Religious Educational Federation Grades union at the Dwight Place Con gregational church last evening. Foi- lowing the group meetings of the pri- mary and junior department an address was given by Rev. Charles F. Under wood for teachers of all grades and for religious workers in general on The Problem of Religious Education" This address dealt with practical prob lems before the religious organizations et present-principally the problem of organization, of closer grading in the Sunday schools, of the necessity for the introduction of better teachers into the Sunday schools to day which is the real work, the first step in the work Of the federation. The federation has made distinct progress during the first session. Classes have been work. ing and studying since November 1 taking up an outline study of the Bi- ble so far, and from now on the funda- mental training of teachers MT. un- derwood considers the work done dur ing the past few months only begin ming. The members of these classes now taking up this study will be given an excellent opportunity to get an in sight into Bible study from students in the university, and plans are being made for a course of lectures on the plan of the university extension lec- lures. The subjects and dates of lec- lures will be announced a little later. The work of the federation is devel- oping so rapidly that it will very shortly be necessary for director to be employed who will give his entire time to the work. One of the vital things before this federation is the great need of religious education of men and the development of character This development of Christianity can be started when the child is commence ing to question, and it can be carried on into manhood by careful directing in the right way, and to this end Cthat teachers may be prepared to judge as to the best method of directing the young idea along religious lines) the federation is working. Because of these facts the federation will be sus- tained by men and women of large vii sions who will not be satisfied with present results but who can see the time when the real development of Character will be due to the work of the federation
 Following Mir Underwood's address, Professor Charles r. Kent who presid- ed at inc meeting took a vote as to the most convenient night for the lectures to be arranged for and also spoke re- garding the financial condition of the federation at present, and a collection was taken, 4 social hour followed during which light refreshments were served
