Los Angeles, Cal-"The Church

ticle written by Walter F. McEntire
one of the ablest and most prominent
attorneys of this city, and published
in "The Tidings," the magazine pub
lished as the official organ of the Cath
olic diocese of Los Angeles.
The attitude of the Catholic Church
toward the Negro is treated by Mr.
McEntire in an exhaustive manner
and he cites many facts of interest
concerning the races relation with
that church in the United States. The
article advances the opinion that the
braces the complete emancipation OF
the Negro and the giving to him of his
place and standing in the human fam
lily, One of the factors in the church
for the carrying out of this idea in the
Catholic board for Mission Work
Among the Colored People, of which
His Eminence, James Cardinal Glib
bons, Archbishop of Baltimore, is hon
orary president, and the Rt, Rev Mgr
John f, Purke of New York is director
general.
Mr.. McEntire has been and still is
engaged in making an investigation as
to Negro priests in the church. and
brings out the fact that the Rt Rev
Francisco Javier Luna Victoriay Cas-
tro, bishop of Panama in 1851, after
wards transferred to Trujillo. Peru
was the first Negro native born bishoI
on this continent. In 1902, he states

strong and held the lead thruout but

ending IL to for w. U.
Howard excelled, his passing, shoot
ing and floor work being remarkable,
Yet when it comes to picking individ-
ual stars the task would be both hard
and unfair, for the whole w. U. quin-
tet played as one team, ever sacrific-
ing the personal glory when a team
mate was standing in a position to
score.
The occasional flashes of offensive
playing with the short, accurate pass
ing of Coach Hardy's white jackets
were bewildering, and drew applause
from the spectators when they at
tempted to swing into their full scor-
ing strength.
The Baptist passers put up game,
uphill fight, but were too closely guard
ed to do much damage. Right Guard

most prominently, often intercepting

when Baby's Teeth are Coming.

Someway back in the days OF super.
stition we acquired the idea that teeth
ing babies should he cross and trouble
some. We have excused various errors
of health by saying, Eyes, he is teethng /;
so, of course he does not feel well
That this is an erroneous idea ia shown
| by the fact that many babies pass
through the teething period without any
OF the cross and troublesome symptoms.
There is no necessity of baby being
sickly during the teething period. Near.
ly all bad symptoms OF this time are due
to Indigestion or 10 faulty feeding. Baby
is just beginning 10 respond TO attention
and we are inclined TO think we are do
ing him favor by giving him tastes OF
various things-when all we really sue
coed in doing is 20 upset the digestion
and make him cross.
The first teeth commence TO form
about four months before the birth OF
the ba by. During all the early months
of baby's life the teeth are deriving
their strength from the food taken BY
the baby. For this reason, baby's food
should be of such nature that it con
tains bone forming material. This same
element is needed to form the hard mate
rial of all the baby's bones.
Bones are formed by the deposit OF
mineral salts in cartilage or gristle.
When the baby is born many of its bones
are not true bones, but really are car
