cover itsef suggests the quaint material
To be found within, for there are SPAN

the blue and red shields of Edward the
Confessor, Henry III and Henry VII are
omblazoned in gold and colors
The author is the son of the Precentor,
who sang and intoned for so many years
i'm the Abbey. He knows every stone in
the ancient fabric, every nook and corner
Of the closters and Westminster School,
and he is an artist, who can illustrate
his book with his own water color draw

That WAS in the quarter of Eastern Swift

preached with trumpet voice from a
rocky pulpit among the hills and was
martyred in the castle of Martola. Hav-
ing sketched the fresco with the jolly

Westminster might see how the founder
Of the Abbey looked after abandoning
! his church i'm Thorney Isle and his
throne in England, Mr.. Troutbeck has
put together the little that is known
about the first British King who was
Christian. A few pages suffice for the
meagre record of Luciuss church on the
site Of a temple of Apollo, his friendship
for the Romans, his missionary journey
and the I.atinzed version of his Celtic
name.

founder, and his portrait In colors has

ANYTHING but a faded blur. He was
King of the East SaXons and was con-

and he built another church on Thorney

An Answer to Vecsey.
East Chicago, Ind, oct.

East tllcdEO, IDO.- OCT. ~.
Editor THE TIMEs:-
The attack made on me in the issue
of THE TINES of Wednesday, October
Is by Mr.. Vecsey of the Hungarian Re
formed Church was an unwarranted
falsehecd. At first it seemed best for
me to utterly ignore it, but upon
urgent request of my friends l have
been induced to make a statement of
affairs as they really are. l will leave
it to the judgment of my readers which
is easier to believe. Mr. vecsey or my
self
versey is an migrate, During his
first days in East Chicago he was in
sore financial straits and ii was | who
furnished the ready cash to sustain
him. Mr.. Vecsey should try his ser
mons and teachings on himself. as he
returns good with evil
To begin with. in my sermon of Oc-
tober Is had nothing to do with the
discussion of the Y. NJ. C. A. organizS-
ton. Following the sermon however.
I made the statement. that Catholics
should not be members of a society
based on religion to which non-Chris-
tian members are admitted. this being
one of the laws OF the church There
is not grain of truth In the state
ment that | opposed the society be-
cause Mr. yecsey was at it's head, for
In the past I had done more for him
than his own Pensioners. Absolutely
no mention was made that the Catholic
people were the only christian people.
and no fair minded man can believe
such a statement. which Vecsey claims
1 made.
Regarding the incident of the l. e T.
flag which Vecsey mentions members
of this sick and benefit society sent
message for 1t, and 1T was in accorl
with the will of the Pensioners of the
church that the society should have
separate existence Since that time
this society has asked three times 20
renew its relation to the church. His
statement that l was punished and
nearly lynched OF course is absolutely
groundless The boy that was whip
ped, was truant, and whipped at the
request OF his parents and teachers
nor was he severely punished 1 had
him examined by physician myself.
Thanks to Vescey for suggestion of re-
ward. SlfEicient reward for me is the
satisfaction of seeing our children
getting instruction in school, existence
of good citizenship good FELLOWSHIP
and piety among my countrymen.

THE ART OF

that we are predominantly selfish. this

YOU may observe. l may. say. nine out
of ten who viii prove the truth of this
assertion one example will be some
thing like this-(you being. we shall
assume, polite person)-"How have
YOU been?" you may ask The question
proves very gratifying. as it furnishes
an opportunity to pour forth all the
ills and petty vexations which have
harrassed this por soul. Since the last
time you made the inquiry. Them
pause for you are only a receptive
listener: so it does not matter how you
have been.
You then ask with another attempt
at conversation: Have you had a
pleasant summer" Upon which. you
are graoiously favored with the
trivialities of this one little life's sum-
naer; so much like other little life's
summers This. one must class as a
monoIogue: not a conversation. The
beauty of conversation lies. not, pri-
