THE MENACE has repro
III duced for the benefit of the
Ik loyal citizens Of the United
LII States, a picture shown in
the New York Herald Of August
9th, a photograph of the U. s. Bat
tleship Florida, showing the papal
ensign flying above the Stars and
Stripes.
We reproduce the photograph,
which won a S5 prize from the
Herald. because the despieable
practice is so unbelievable that
many readers will want proof. The
photograph was taken by George
Harber Of 26s West 117th street,
New York City.
THE MENACE has been told, time
and time again, that this sort of
thing was being practiced in our
navy during divine services. The
Herald is authority for the state
'ment that this photograph was
taken during divine service. The
Herald and the photograph fix the
truth.
What About It7
What is 10 be done? What are
the American people going to do
about this insult to Old Glory?
We were told that papal princes
Of the blood would take precedence,
at public functions, over our gov.
eminent officials, but 30 far TO date
it hasn't been done. With Dunno
vice-president they would unques.
tionsble try the stunt, but Mar.
shall isn't a papist.
But why place the yellow rag Of
the papacy, or any other rag repre-
senting that power above the Stan
and StripesI
What authority is responsible?
Does Secretary Daniels approve
Of this sacrilege?
Will President Wilson continu,
to sanction it?
Is it absolutely necessary in or,

Sabbath?
Is it for the benefit Of the ignor

A Great Graft

According TO the ComnsrciSl
Trbuas of Cincinnati, date Of
April /, 1918, the charity graft in
that city Is in q thriving condition:
From the certified statements OF
the auditor Of the accounts Of the
Boys Home (Catholie) Of Syea-
more street, Cincinnati, prepared
by ]. ID. Cloud, certified public ac-
countant, we find that the institu-
ton has assets Of Sl20,O0o.9l, con-
sisting Of cash, loans, stocks and
bonds, and real estate.
That the receipts last year were
S44, ,4O5.s3.
That among the disbursements in
the same period are the following
items:
Salaries and wages .seo6s.lI
Food .............s.... fsol.s1
/ Clothing ...s.........ss.ss loao,at
Household supplies and sTPenses 2eel.oe
Rosarics a other religious articles s23s.ss
In view Of the fact that the "of.
fetal Catholic Directory" the pres
ent year, states that the Home is
managed BY Miss Margaret McCabe
and three assistants, We conclude
that their salaries were sufficient for
them to live fairly well.
As the same directory gives the
number Of inmates as siNty-soVen,
and the report gives the amount
spent for food and household eI-
penses as S7,l29.Ol some one must
have been pretty well fed.
Then il took Si,ll44S postage
or about ten per cent Of the total
receipts 10 collect this money and
tell Of the good deeds done at the
wonderful Home.
The most remarkable item is
that for rosaries and other religious
articles S9,23s.4s. Nearly double
the cost Of food.
Think Of il; one dollar for food
and two dollars for beads.

Next time you Protestants and
non Catholics are asked for money
to carry on these Boys Homes

homes, just find out how much oi
your money goes for food and how
much goes for beads.

JUST THE RIGHT PRESENT

Don't take chances in the matter of
Christmas presents. You don't want
yours, like SO many others, to be re-
ceived with Indifference or worse, and
ten days after Christmas to be cast aside
and forgotten.
You take no such chance in giving The
Youths Companion for a year.
Did you ever know of a home in
which it came amiss, or of one in which
it was not conspicuous on the library
table or in some ones hands all through
the year?
1t is worth while to make a gift of that
sort, and it is worth while to receive it,
too, for the Companion illustrates the
best traits in American life in its stories
and sketches, upholds the best standards
in its articles and other contributions,
and combines the practical and informing
with the entertaining and blood-stirring.
If you do not know the Companion
as it is today, let us send you one or two
current issues free, that you may thor
oughly test the papers quality. We will
send also the Forecast for 1916.
Every new subscriber who sends 50 for
the lifty-two weekly issues of 1916 will
receive free all the issues for the rest of
1915 and the Companion Home Calendar
for 1916.

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-08-05

Straws are said TO show which way
the wind blows, but listen to the re-
ports of the suffragists and the reports
of the "antis" on the result OF the
straw vote for equal rights that has
Just been taken in towns up the state
and you will know less than you did
before about the way the suffrage wind
blows. The only thing that stands out
clear is that it has caused lively tenn
pest in a teapot, with Miss Lucy Price,
the young Ohio anti" and Miss Helen
Todd. the California sufragist, who
have been holding debates on the Cha
tauqua circuit, helping the blast. The
Chatauqua management got frightened
and put a stop to the straw vote, when
was inaugurated by MSs Todd.
Yesterdays papers printed an item
in which Miss Todd was quoted as say
ing that, according to one of the other
sneakers on the circuit, Miss Price had
asked TO have the straw vote stopped,
declaring that it interfered with her
debates and injured her reputation as
speaker. The results of the vote, Miss
Todd said, had robbed Miss Price OF her
fayorite argument that women do not
want the franchise. Many persons read
this item, among them leaders OF the
New York State Association Opposed to
Woman Suffrage, who Immediately sent
out a statement denying everything
that Miss Todd said.
Miss Rose Young, speaking for the
Empire State campaign committee,
which is backing these debates, says
that the committee pins its faith to
Miss Todd, and there you are.
A saying as old as the one about
straws declares that figures do not lie.
But if the Ananas Club should see the
straw vote figures in the antl-suifrage
statement and the figures of the same
vote issued by the sutfragists 1t GER
tainly would feel thrill of admlra-
tion. SAYS the "anti" statement:
"At Perry, the first debate, the men
voted SO for and 1913 against, or to /
against, which is the proportion the
'antis' claim will be the result IN No
vember."
Saws the suffrage statement: AT
Perry the suffrage majority was 49,
Says the "anti" statement: I'm four
out of five towns where the votes were
taken the majority OF the men were
against woman suffrage, and in many
cases the majority of both men and
women were against it,"
Says the suffrage statement: Out
of the fifteen towns in which the vote
was taken all but four gave good ma
iority for suffrage at the end OF the
debate" :.
The "anti" statement contents itself
with actual figures from only four
towns besides Perry. These are Mo
ravia. Ovid, Cazenovie and Hamilton:
In the first, it says, 43 men and lS7
women voted against suffrage and 80
men and 1856 women for. In the second
80 men and 1876 women voted against
and 10 men and 104 women for. In the
third. the joint majority against was
II. and in the fourth it was I. Miss
Young smiled meaning smile when
she scanned this.
Miss Todd says only four out of
fifteen towns voted against she OBJ
