Doctors to Fight Slim Waist

The wasp-like waist is returning.
News from Paris says that soon the
gowns imported to this country will
have small waists and that women
again will be lacing tight and squeezing
into dresses with waists that ordinarialy
only girls of l6 could wear The waist
line that for time was lost is being now
marked distinctly by the creators OF
fashion. With that announcement how
ever, doctors are planning a campaign
and the prospects are that a war be-
tween the dictators of fashion and the
physicians will be waged. Doctors are
against the small waist. The makers
of fashions say that the slim waist adds
to the grace and effectiveness of the
dress and they are determined to swing
it back into popular favor.

IT is Of common knowledge that the
express companies have been imposing
eXtOrtionste rates upon their patrons
and in those rates Fracticting unfair
discrimination. On top Of this has come
proof Of the fact that they have ever
been charging above the rates they have
fixes for their services. This state Of
affairs has been brought to light by an
investigation Of the express companies
which is being made by the Interstate
Commerce Commission. An agent Of
the commission discovered that in one
month there were 5000 cases Of over
charging by a single company. the ex-
cess over the card rates being S67, OO0.
In answer TO this ts stimony the attorney
Of the company explained that the
Overchsrges were due TO mistakes
on the part Of the employees. and that
all but 20 per cent Of them had been re-
funded. This means that the over
charged patrons who did not complain
Of the extOrtiOn and demand restitution
were cheated out Of more than Sl3, 600.
Il il a poor defence for corporations
that return such enormous profits 10
their stockholders as the express CON-
panies have paid 10 admit that they
have incompetent employees, and it is
notorious that no corporations in Amer
lea so underpsy their employees as the
express companies. The more light
that is thrown on the inner workings Of
the express companies the greater ap-
pears the necessity Of placing them
under government regulation and pro-
viding healthy competition in their
business by the establishment Of the
parcels post under the proper distance
regulations that will build up a few
communities at the expense Of the rest
Of the country. Leader.

We desire to express our deep appre-
citation to our friends, neigh5ors and
physicians for the attention and SYM
pathy shown US dursng our recent bere
avement, when death claimed our wife
and mother. We shall always cherish
in our memory the fondest recollections

to the alienation of our sorrows, which
would have been most unbearable but
for the kindness of those who came to
our relief in this sad hour of distress.

remained about the same as last court

good, but not rushing and the scales
had ample time to do all the weighing
without the usual rush and mixup.

CATHOLIC INDIAN ATHLETE
James Thorpe, the Carlisle Indian, is
the Worlds Champion Athlete.

1t is of interest to mention that
James Thorpe, the wonderful Carlisle
Indian, who decisively captured the
decathlon and pentathlon events in
the Olympic games at Stockholm, and
who on September 2 won the all
round amateur athletic championship
of America, is a good, exemplary
Catholic, excelling in the practice of
his religion as he does in feats on
track and field
Thorpe won the amateur athletic
championship of America at Celtic
Park, New York, on Labor Day, under
adverse weather conditions, on a wet
track and field.
He was first in seven of the ten
events which make up the trying con-
test, and finished second to John
Bredemus, of Princeton, in the other
three-the pole vault, one-half mile
walk and 16-pound hammer throw
His total, 7,476 points, is a new
record for this competition, beating
the previous record of Martin Sheri-
dan, made three years ago, by 81
points.

SPLENDID PULPIT
Gift of the Knights of Columbus to
Wichita Cathedral.

The pulpit in the new st. Aloysius
Cathedral, at Wichita, Kansas, will be
one of the finest, if not the most artis-
tic and most costly one in America.
It is the gift of Wichita Council, No.
691, Knights of Columbus, and will
cost nearly $4,000.
Marble, onyx and brass are the
materials which are being used in the
construction. The body of the pulpit
is of white Carrara marble, imported
from Italy, and carved in st. Louis
shops. 1t is trimmed with Mexican
onyx
The pulpit will not stand on a
pedestal, as pulpits usually do, but will
be attached to one side of one of the
large marble pillars supporting the
roof of the church. The heavy body
rests upon steel girders mortised into
the marble column. Marble stairs
with brass railing will lead to the
pulpit.
The preacher will stand almost on
a level with the heads of his listeners
in the rear of the church. On two
sides of the pulpit, which win be in
view of the congregation, will be
carved in high relief figures of the
four evangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke
and John.

through conviction. Money or some
other temporal advantage will change
him into temporary and nominal
Protestant. Yet, while it is certain
that Professionalism can never hope to
win over any considerable number of
Italians, it is not strange that there
has been, and will continue to be, de-
fections-a drifting away from the
Mother Church over the shoals of in
differentsm, into the depths of abso-
lutte unbelief A variety of causes are
at work, which, unless checked, and
that soon, will produce this inevitable,
disastrous result
Not Accustomed to Support Church.
For one thing, the Italians in the
United States do not understand the
necessity of giving support to the
Church. In Italy, their support is not
required for the reason that the
Church is subsidized by that govern
ment. Moreover, in Italy, the Church
is the great national charitable insti-
tuition, from which the poor are ac-
customed to ask and receive help.
Now, to expect the poor to support
the Church seems, to them, preposter-
Gus and unjust. They simply can not
accept the situation as they find it in
this country. Hence the life of an
Italian priest among Italians is any
thing but a bed of roses. 1t is all up
hill work; almost alone and single
handed, with but scant support and
few supporters, must he labor; and if
his endeavors have not been as sue
cessful as they might have been, it
can easily be explained The Italian
priest has no severer critics than the

TRIBUTE TO JOAN OF ARC.
Non-CathoIic Member of the French
Academy Thanks the Church for
Having Canonized the Maid of Or
leans-He Hopes to See National
Festival Instituted in Her Honor.

The latest tribute from outside the
Maid of Orleans comes from the elo-
quent lips of M. Maurice Barres of the
French Academy, who is taking such
leading part in the movement for
saving the old parish churches in
country districts. Speaking between
the acts of performance at Domremy
of ''The Vocation of Jeanne dare" NJ.
Barres pointed out that those present
experienced more than the pleasure of
applauding beautiful play; they
were filed with the satisfaction which
comes when many find themselves in
accord under a noble emotion cat
this moment" he proceeded, "we de-
clare our admiration, our veneration
for the young girl born in this very
village-the maid of Domremy, the
saint of our fatherland. Not in the
whole world is there name sweeter
on the lips than the name of this
young maid, who five centuries ago
was born in the place where we sit
and under the sky we see. Thanks be
to the Church that she has placed
Jeanne dare on her affairs. We shall
hope that in a few weeks, soon after
it's reassembling, Parliament will in
stitute national fete in honor of the
Maid. A committee, of which / am
a member, has, been appointed to in
quire into the question, and the pro-
.ject has the support of men of all
shades of political opinion. There
are some objectors, who fear a ma
ional festival because it would
inevitably pass to the Church. But
Jeanne will certainly be honored in
all the churches of France, whatever
happens"
