UNHAPPY SERvIA.
lPhiladelphia Recordl

When the impartial historian Of the
future writes the story of the wars OF
the present decade he will note with
sympathetic interest and pity theseem-
ingly interminable nlisfortunes and
woes of heroic little Servia. 1t is q
tiny nation, just about the size Of
Maine, and before the present war be-
gan it's population numbered only
100000, almost all peasants, for the
country has no manufactures worth
speaking of. In the first Balkan war
its peasant soldiers acquitted them
selves splendidly against the Turks,
and in the second war they and the
Greeks inflicted a. crushing defeat up
on the t,'uculent Bulgarians.
It was while Servia was bleeding
from the wounds Of these two contests
that generous Austria, country with
IL times the population and hundred
times the wealth, made known to Italy
in August, 1913, her plans for attack
ing her little but plucky neighbor and
utterly destroying her. For a time the
dastardly project was halted, but last
year the assassination by an Austrian
subject of the Austrian Grand Duke
in Austrian territory furnished the
flimsy pretext for the assault upon
Servia. 1t is one of the glories of the
present war that Servia, despite the
disparity in size of the two combat
ants, twice gained sweeping victories
over superior forces and finally cx-
PEELED the invaders from her soil. Then
came the dreadful visitation of ty-
plus, which is said to have carried
off $4,000 of the stricken people, and
from which they have not yet recov-
cred.
As the last cup of bitterness to be
pressed to her lips, 100000 Germans
and Austrians, reinforced by several
hundred thousand vindictive Bulgar-
ians, are now marching against the
unhappy little nation, whose army can
not possibly number more than 100000
or 100000. Even with aid from the
allies she is bound to suffer terribly
Doubtless that toughness of fibre
which enabled Servia and Montene-
gro to keep the torch Of liberty burn
ing, even though feebly, through CEN
turies of Turkish tyranny will pre-
serve the peasant nation through it's
present troubles. The heart of the
world outside the Teutonic countries
and their allies, will go out to the
brave little people now battling for
the preservation of it's integrity and
freedom.

PUBLISHED DAILY
PARADE OF THE
HOLY NAME SOCIETIES

Many Alexandrians, not members
Of the Holy Name Society, visited
Washington yesterday afternoon to
witness the parade on Pennsylvania
avenue. The members Of the organl-
cation from this city made d fine ap-
pearance 1t is estimated that nifty
thousand persons reviewed the parade.
The parade exceeded in splendor
and magnitude any outdoor religious
demonstration ever conducted by the
Catholics of the Washington diocese,
and in the presence of the highest
tlignitaries in the councils Of the
church in America, 10000 members
of the Holy Name societies OF WASH
ington. Baltimore and Alexandria
yesterday marched in parade along
Pennsylvania avenue to Fifteenth
street and thence to the Monument
Grounds, where the demonstration
was concluded with sermon by a
Dominican preacher of nationwide
reputation, and benediction of the
the Blessed Sacrament. The spec
tacle in its entirety was awe-inspiring.
The thousands who watched the pa
eeant manifested reverence seldom
shown by a great crowd.
The turnout was knightly leclara-
ton of the Holy Name Soclety's
worldwide motto: In the name OF
Jesus every knee should bow"
Hearty tribute to the aims and
work of the Holy Name Society was
paid yesterday by Rev. DR.. Randolph

pal Church of the Epiphany in Wash
ifgton, ard many years ago rector
of Christ Church in Alexandria.
Tn announcing religious events for
the week. Rev. DR.. McKim mention
ed the parade of the Holy Name
Society. He expressed his apprecia-
ton of the work of the society and
said that its work against the use Of
profanity and blasphemy was great
necessity.
Rev. Dr. McKim, in the sermon
which followed the announcement,
chose for his subject, "The Govern
nent of the Tongue" topic similar
to that discussed by Very Rev. J. Ray
mond Meagher, founder of the Holy
Name Society, who spoke at religi-
Gus services at the Monument Ground
or blasphemy.
1t may he stated in connection with
the above that the ancient Israelites,
whatever else they may have left
undone. were especially anxious not
to incur the condemnation cast upon
blasphemers. The name Jehovah was
never. uttered by the reader in the
synagogue, but where it occurred in
the sacred writings he substituted the
rame Adonai (Lord). In the olden
times there were no vowel points in
the Hebrew language; the reader was
supposed to know where to sound
them. After the Babylonish captivity
Ct seventy years the ancient Hebrew
ceased to be spoken, and the true
pronunciation of Jehovah was lost.
= One of the first commandments of
The Author of the Christian religion
was "Swear not at ALL" The COM
r,and IS repeated in other places in
The New Testament
The bridling Of the tongue is a
difficult feat, and ever has been, and
the mission of the Holy Name Society
