gives chance also for the opera

It is the hope Of those who be
lieve in the plan that when it is
adopted between this nation and
other nations, it will be adopted by
other nations between themselves
until the nations OF the earth will
be knit together by these agree

more.
Cardinal Gibbons in a letter express.
ing regret that he was unable to be
present, said:
Let Brittania and Columbia join
hands across the Atlantic and their
outstretched arms will form a sa-

never more be deluged with blood

believe that the purpose OF the whole

Germany That certainly IS n most
absurd understanding, and Il would
be most unfortunate n such a view
