DIOCESE OF WINONA
LETTER OF BISHOP HEBRON.
To the Clergy and Faithful of the
Diocese of Winona.

0IOCSSG OF WINOHds
The last words of the sanity Plus
X. was prayer for peace. He was
a martyr to the cause of peace. The
first words spoken by Benedict XIV.
was an ardent wish for peace. He
will be the apostle and preacher of
the gospel of peace. The history of
the Church is the record of one con-
tinuous effort to foster and promote
peace. She strives to bring to mems
souls that peace that surpasseth all
understanding and is a gift from the
Prince of Peace. 1t is vain to try to
establish peace between nations, and
peace between men, unless the mes
sage and the grace of the Prince of
Peace is made to take an abiding place
in the hearts of men. But if the
teachings of the Savior find ready
response from men and they be i'm
bued with the lessons of faith in their
daily lives, then we may hope that
peace will reign among nations and
among men.
The President of the United States,
happily at peace with all the world,
and the Governor of our own State
have set apart a day when all are in
vited to offer public prayer that peace
may be speedily made to reign, and
that an end may come to fratricidal
war. October 4, the feast of the Most
Holy Rosary, is fitting day on which
to make supplication to the throne of
mercy and the divine Prince of Peace,
world over, to cast away the spirit
of hatred and strife, and give ear to
the cries of the millions who are
storming high heaven, that this ter
rife scourge of war may cease, and
that the hearts of men may be moved
by the message of the gentle Savior
of the world.
Pastors are asked to announce to
their flocks that Rosary Sunday, Oct
ODER 4, will be a day of prayer for
peace. The faithful will be exhorted
to approach the Holy Table, with this
invitation, and to direct their earnest
prayers to God that peace may be
brought to the nations.
Pastors will also set forth in fitting
| words, and in the spirit of our Blessed
Lord, the heartfelt warnings of the
Church for peace. pray God to bless
the pastors and people in their charge.

II there is kitchen porch to your
house. It will be easiest to build the
toy elevator to run from the ground
up to that porch, as illustrated In Fig.
j: and II you live In an upper story
of an apartment building, your ele-
vator can be made to run to a much
greater height, which, of course, will
be a great deal more fun. II will
save considerable work TO use the
porch, because for one thing you will
not have to build an upper platform
to stand upon to reach the elevator
car when 1t runs to the top, and the
supports for the elevator cables and
guides can be fastened directly to one
of the porch posts.
Figure 2 shows large detail Of the
supports for the elevator cables and
guides. Cross strips A, B and C
should be 1s or 20 inches long. about
2 inches wide, and / inch thick. At a
distance OF about 1 inch from one end
OF strips A and B, screw a screw-eye
into one edge, and inches from
these eyes screw second screw-eye
