REV. father WILLIAMS
GOES TO ST. ANTHONY
Passionate, Because of Proximity to
University, Regarded as
Especially Desirable.

Announcement has been received here
of the appointment by Cardinal Gibbons
of Rev. David Williams as pastor of st.
Anthony's Catholic Church, Brookland,
ID. c. This is regarded as a particularly
desirable assignment on account of it's
proximity to the Catholic University and

by all who know him as a well deserved
promotion.
Father Williams is a Washingtonian
and was ordained in st. Mary's Seminary
in Baltimore I'm 1897. After his ordina-
ton he was first detailed as assistant at
ST. Martins Church in Baltimore. after
ward serving as pastor at st. Mary s
Church. Rockville. and later for many
years as assistant pastor at St Stephen 5
Church in this city under the late Father
Caughy. During the past year he has
been stationed at st. Mary's Church,
Finney. He will take charge of his new
parish in October.
Father Williams succeeds Rev. Edward
A. Southgate. who Is well known through
out Maryland. Father Southgate left
during the week for Montreal to attend
the eucharistic congress and on his re-
turn trip will visit friends I'm New York
and Pennsylvania. During the month OF
September church affairs in st. Anthony
parish will be looked after by the Do
minican priests from the College of the
Immaculate Conception, Catholic Uni
versity. At the conclusion of his vaca-
ton Father Southgate will give himself
exclusively to his duties as chaplain at
the Soldiers Home. which, in addition
to the work as pastor Of st. Anthony's.
proved too exacting for one priest Father
Southgate will be absent until October.

What the Camera Saw.
rom the Christian Herald.


Dr. Francis Clark tells an interesting
story of a youth living in Maine who was
out in the woods one day during his va
cation with a camera taking photographs
of attractive bits Of scenery. He came
upon the mouth of a little cavern between
the rocks, and he said to himself, Il Will
see what sort of picture l can get out
of that cave And as 1t was dark
day he decided to take time expos
ures instead of snap. shot. STEADY
ing the camera upon his knee as wei as
he could at the edge of the cave. he gave
the sensitive plate a long, deliberate look
at the semi-darkness within. Then he
continued his tramp through the woods.
and after a few hours returned to mis-
camp.
Several weeks afterward. when devei-
oping his plates. you can imagine ms as
tonishment to see I'm the picture, in the
very center Of the cavern. with arched
back and bristling fur, and within spring
ing distance of the spot where he had
balanced his camera. a huge Canada lynx
that might easily have torn his eyes out
or DESTROYED his life. And yet he came
and went and saw no signs Of danger.

overcome by preparing i'm advance enough
of the new notes SO that they could be
exchanged for old notes on a fixed date
at all subtreasuries. banks and other
large financial institutions Preparation
for the change, including the making of
designs and plates and printing of
notes, probably would require about
eighteen months, and within that time.
no doubt, enough new notes could be
printed to make possible an almosp COM
plete change. The people themselves
would aid this change naturally and
RAPIDLY in their desire to secure specimens
or the new money i am convinced that
the criticisms of the proposed issue are
based rather upon considerations Of tenn
-porary Inconvenience than upon essential
and insurmountable objections If this is
the case these objections should hardly
be permitted to stand in the way of per-
manent progress and economy
NO special legislation is necessary to
enable the government to reduce the size
of United States notes and gold and sill
yer certificates. In order, however, to
effect reduction in the size Of national
bank currency without legislation, and
at the same time continue the present
multiplicity of designs. it would be neces-
sary to eliminate the 1900 plates now I'm
use and to engrave as many more. This
could be done, I presume, only by the
governments assumption of the expense
of new plates, and. as each plate costs
$40, the total cost of the new series
would reach about $4,000. 1t would be
quite possible however, to use the same
uniform engraved plates for all bank
notes. and to print later by separate
process the name of the individual bank
upon the notes which that bank was to

''On the popular side. / am inclined to

commended by the people. The. smaller

We have carefully experimental with
bank clerks and tellers in the city of
Washington and learn that the smaller
notes do not tend TO cramp the hands of
persons manipulating them. as do the
present notes. and that they are just as
easily handled and counted as the old
notes. The smaller notes could be more
closely packed on the counters of the
banks. and. in fact, banks as well as
subtreasuries probably could store % per
