The Bottled Door" and Money

WHEN you read the opening paragraph of
w THE Bolted Door" next week, you will
be interested at once. 1t is an extract from a
will made by very rich, malicious old man,
whose malice had much sense mixed up with
it. You can see at once that there must be COM
plications.
We have talked good deal about the new
serial by George Gibbs, who bids fair to be-
come even better known writer than he is
as an artist. 1t has real plot, and is absorbing
merely as a tale Moreover, it is brilliantly
written. But it has additional value in the &C
curate picture it presents of highly significant
phase of American life. 1t isn't always pleas
ant, because it is true. and maybe it will not
convince anybody that having lot of money
isn't nearly SO important as most Of us think.
The trouble is largely due to lack of magma
ton and sense of proportion. 1t is simply
amazing how few of us can conceive OF having
a really good time without plenty of money,
while continuous enjoyment without fortune
appears utterly impossible. On the other hand,
and this is one of the things The Boted Door -"
shows clearly, most very rich people have
painfully stupid time. They have to grind
continuously to get more, more money, or If
they have all they need they have to work so
hard to find diversion that they have neithert time
nor energy left for enjoyment. But our poor
feeble minds, following dumbly and slavishly
the precedent of folk whose imagination stops
short with the accumulation of money, must
keep on thinking about it-and crying about
it, pretty often.
Of course nobody believes it. until they are
able to open the bolted door that guards wealth;
but it is wise dispensation of Providence that so
few, comparatively, can make themselves rich.
If all of us worked as hard and thought hard
and wept as earnestly over the door that opens
the way to real human happiness, the money
problem wouldn't be very serious. The two i'm
portant people in The Bolted Door" suffered
terribly before they made that simple discovery.

is an article that brings home the other side Of
the question. By the by, this is mighty inter
esting, this article, because it tells you all there
is to know about tremendously significant in
novation in our national Government, of which
you have some general information.
If ii is unwise to say too much for money, it
is silly to try and get along without it, or with
out enough to supply ones real needs. The
new Government banking scheme, which gives
absolute security, is believed to be the best
plan yet advanced to encourage thrift which
you know is declared to be the foundation Of
wealth. But one can be thrifty in never so
many things besides money. and it is wise to
think about them.

\ STATUE OF 4 PRIEST.

Father Junipero Sierra. the pioneer
missionary of California, is to have
his statue in the national capitol if
Congressman Julius Kahn can get it
there. Every state i'm the Union is
entitled to place two statues of its cit
liens in the Statuary hail." says the
congressman except California. This
is not a private hall of fame. but one
that was started by the federal gov
eminent. When the old hall of the
House OF Representatives was aban-
doned as a meeting place it was set
aside as a hall of statuary. 1t Is there
that these statues are being placed,
and many of the good locations are
already gone. l have always contend
ed that one of the two statues from
California should be that of Father
Junipero Sierra. He blazed the way
for Caucasian civilization on the Pa
cific coast, and it would be eminently
fitting that his statue should be one of
those selected by California. The leg
islature will, of course, have to appro-
pirate what funds would be necessary
for erecting the statue" Father Sierra
founded the mission Of San Carlos at
Monterey in 1770 and the mission Car
mel in 1771. He helped to establish
the mission Dolores in San Francisco.
His was q noble and beautiful charac-
ter. His life was given to God. He
consecrated himself to work for the
conversion of the Indians He loved
his kind He lived a daily sacrifice.
He died in peace. His statue would
be an honor to the capitol in Washing

A NEEDED MARNING.

A much-needed warning has just
been given by Rome" Look out, it
says, these days for bogus news about
the Codification of Canon law. Re-
Gently many Italian papers have given
variety of transformation on the
subject, winding up with the an
nouncement that the new Code will be
solemnly promulgated in St Peters
in 1912, by the Holy Father himself
in presence of a great gathering of
Bishops The really important thing
is that the enormous work is now
practically complete in its first draft.
A great many minor notifications
will probably be made after the Bish
ops of the whole Catholic world have
studied it and made such observations
as they may deem necessary, but the
essential part of the work IS finished
once ard for all The Code will be
divided into three parts. but we be-
lieve that il vii! be published in sin
gle volume The edition officially
published by the Holy See will con-
tain not only the text of the Code, but
a very important commentary. which
will elucidate many points of the text.
When the Holy Father formed the
Pontifical commission for this colos-
sal work he hoped that the forty
consultors would complete their labors
in five years; nearly seven years have
passed since then. and two years more
will be required before it is possible to
promulgate the new Code. One of the
chief reasons Of the delay has been the
fact that many of the consultors have
not been able to give all the time and
labor that was expected of them. and
a preponderating share of the work
necessarily devolved on the secretary,
Msgr., now Cardinal. Gasparri

AMERICAN CATHOLICISM.

The Outlook, perhaps the most in
huential of all non-Catholic religious
periodicals. has this to say:
But America today stands in pc
culiar need Of that contribution which
the Roman Catholic Church is pecu-
llarly fitted to furnish For the chief
peril to America is from disorganizing
forces and a lawless spirit: not from
excessive ganiZation, bur from dis
order and disOrganization. One of the
chlef lessons Am eriCans need to learn
Is reverence for constituted authority
and willing obedience to law This
lesson the Roman Catholic Church is
peculiarly fitted to teach. And within
the reach Of its influence are those
who most need to be taught That
Church is 4 vast spiritual police force
"a protection Of society from the
reckless apostles of self-will But it
is far more Wherever it goes it
teaches submission to control and that
is the first step toward that habit of
self-control in the individual which
is an Indispensable condition of self
government in the community
The Outlook congratulates America
upon the evidences of spiritual pros
perity in the Roman Catholic Church
in this country, and it gratefully ap-
preciates the service which that
Church is rendering to the commune
ty by intoxicating the spirit of rever-
ence for law and lawful authority
which is the foundation OF civil and
religious liberty

Mr. Sorolla has evidently found his
subject of fascinating interest. for he

DIVING BIRDS.

Water birds which are ordinarily
able to float high on the water can
also sink at will BY expelling the air
which is enclosed within the film of
feathers surrounding their bodies,
thus making them heavier than water.
This mechanical trick on the part
of diving birds is probably familiar to
all who have watched the kingfisher
at close quarters and have noted the
sudden contraction in the birds APP
parent size as it takes the plunge.
This is much more easily observed
in the case of the starting. which some
times initiates the kingfisher by ploug-
ing into water for food. The shrink

STEEL MAIL CARS.

The United States postal depart
ment is having all of the mail cars on
the railroads throughout the country
built of steel. The reason for this
new method of car building is to pro-

cars are liable to come together and
eventually take fire.
The cars are built entirely of steel,
no woodwork being used at all From
