priests OF Wayne county. to take part
in ceremony never before required
in the history III the Roman Catholic
church Bishop John s. Foley, ottici-
ated, and the ceremony was brief and
without music or the usual ecclesias-
teal pomp Of church services.

OF the Roman Catholic church through
out the world. from the highest dig
nitary to the huinblest parish priest,
take the "anti-mOGernist' oath, before
the eEd OF January. 1911. The oath
binds the clergy to believe only what
the church teaches, not to cXalt hu-
man science above divine revelation.
and 10 look TO the teachings OF The
church for illumination OH doubtful
points and not 20 human agencies

before the altar. explained in English.
TO those assembled, the nature OF the
ceremony and then, kneeling at I
prieudieux in the center OF the chan
eel. read two communications from
the holy father, In the original Latin
text. FollCwinS this, each priest
walked to the cbancel and affixed hls
signature to the parchment helo In

printed his lips upon the papal sea-
on the document. As each priest
walked away he was given a small
booklet written by tho holy father

ern churchmen TO employ scientihc
arguments based upon human achieve
mems in explanation OF divine phe
nomena, and ii is in all effort TO check
this tendency that the papal bulletin
was issued with regard TO The anti

CONTRACT FOR
50 UNIFORMS
BOARD OF SAFETY MAKES DEAL
FOR SUMMER CLOTHING FOR
POLICE AND FIREMEN, MAKING
DIVISION OF BUSINESS.

At meeting of the board of public
safety, held at the city hall at $3.50
o'clock yesterday afternoon, contracts
were awarded for the summer uni
forms OF policemen and firemen. Thir-
ty suits of each department will be
furnished by two contractors, there
having been but two bids submit
ted.
Joe Weiland was awarded the con-
tract for furnishing thirty police uni
forms. while the firm of Watson, Park
er & Reese was given the contract
for furnishing uniforms for thirty
firemen. The police clothing will be
of the regulation bkt~, two stripes
down the trouser legs, and the regula-
ton star and stripes on the sleeve.
These suits will cost, with helmet,
stripes, etc, each S23. Those for the
firemen. which will be made after the
usual pattern, will cost with cap
SITS.
When some of the officers learned
last evening of the boards action in
accepting the higher bid for their uni
forms, there was much dissatisfaction
expressed, and the board may re-
ceive a protest before the contract
is signed. The officers, or at least
those heard from, were DESTROYS of
getting suitable clothing at the most
