PREJUDICE OF anti PROHIBITION

all understand, of course, that these
extreme conservatives do not, for one
moment, wish to encourage drunken
ness or intemperance. For that mat
ter, the keeper Of the lowest dive in
any of our cities will insist that he
believes in temperance, but he, too,
will quote the first miracle to justify
the nefarious business in which he is
engaged. There are no extracts from
Holy Scripture quotedsso frequently in
the saloons of the land as these two,
the one about the stomach of Timothy
and the good wine at the marriage
feast. OF course, every sane man
knows very well that neither of these
has anything to do with the problem
of curbing the devastating curse OF
the saloon
Prohibition may mean differ
things to different people. To AM
onize the liquor power, which is
of the greatest dangers in our polii
/ life today, does not mean that

Many chapels, lending themselves
to artistic decoration, are provided for
In the new Cathedral of st. Paul
When completed and embellished with
the best that art and workmanship
can provide and the generosity of the
faithful make possible, they will serve
as circlet of jeweled Shrines to
grace the Sayiour's dwclling-place and

beauteous shrine in which the Master
Himself will rest when the main altar

throned upon altars which will speak
of the Veneration in which the people
of the diocese hold the Prince of the
Apostles and the renowned Patron of

great streams of missionary endeavor
which resulted in the conversion to

about the BY Scouts lately, but
they are coming along in gnO,
shape under the able guidance ol
Scoutmaster w. II. FulIington
They are also attracting atten

teuets nf a Scout is 10 do some
good deed each day and thai
without financial compensation
This week whiles G.. M. Mile,
was loading some nsgS 81 the
stock yards he had considerable
difficulty and some Scouts came
to his assistance and the animals
were safely loaded. When Mr.
Miller offered to pay the boys
they declined to take any money
explaining TO him that they were
carrying out their Scout pledge
Mr.. Miller was much impressed
with this practical demonstra
tion of ScOutcraft and requested
US to make this public recogni
tnn of their services.

Harry Hight Shot.

Harry, the 10 year.Old son oI
John Hight, met with what might
have proved a fatal accident Sun
day afternoon about two O'Clock.
Several boys were playing at the
Hight home with a gun, which
was discharged while in the
hands of Midget" King, the 90
calibre bullet striking the Hight
boy in the forehead in a glancing
manner and passing out at the
top of the head. DR.. r. M. Rog
ers prObed and dressed the
wound and Harry is getting
along as well as could be expect.
ed and it is thought that he will
make complete recovery. All
of which goes to show that d gun
in the hands OF a boy is not the
safest plaything in the world,
even if it is Thought the gun is
not loaded, as these "unloaded" {"
guns seem to be as fatal as the
loaded ones.
And speaking of guns, bullets
without guns are sometimes
as bad, as certain youns lady of
Mansti' Id can testify. The 9th.
err day as she was sweeping the
floor she put the dirt intoa stove.
and a bullet whiM-d by her head
She dropped to the floor, later
remarkina that if anyone had
told her she was dead she would
have believed it. She had swept
up a cartridge with the dirt.
