This year marks the seven
hundredth anniversary of the
foundation of the Order Of st.
Dominic. There is possibly no
other Order in the Catholic Church
that has a more glorious history
than the great Society of the
Friars Preachers. In every cline,
under every sky have they fought
the battles of the faith. With
facile pen and eloquent tongue
they have shown forth the beau
ties, the glories, and the logic OF
the Catholic faith. Had they done
no more than to give to the world
st. Thomas Aquinas the Church
and the world would be forever in
their debt.

Down in Kerrville, Texas, a
plucky little priest, Rev. DR..
Kemper, is putting up noble
fight to reclaim and preserve the
Mexican children from Protestant
proselytizers. Against almost I'M
surmountable odds he is winning
out. We have received a copy of
his small book, "The Guadalupe
Raccolta," selection Of in
dulgenced prayers with devotions
and religious information on many
points. The book costs fifteen
cents, a special rate being offered
for quantities, and the proceeds
are entirely devoted to the work of
Notre Dame Institute.

About a week ago an illiterate
street preacher at Venice, CAL, re-
ceived a salutary lesson. He re-
ferred to the Flag as "a dirty
rag" Among his hearers was
Jerry Sullivan, aged seventy-five
years, a veteran of the Civil war.
IF it is a dirty rag l IL make you
eat it, !" said Sullivan. He grabbed
the street preacher by his long
whiskers, took a small flag from
his coat lapel and. compelled the

arrest of both the preacher and
Sullivan. The crowd protested
against arresting the veteran and
he was released. The preacher S

America may not claim, as a
certain foreign power does, to be
the protector of small nations, but
she certainly can rightfully de-
mand to be recognized as the pro-
wider for small nations. While
many are accusing the United
States of fattening on the
enormous sales of supplies and
ammmitions Of war they should
not lose sight Of the fact that the
United States is keeping life
within the breasts Of millions of
non-combatants in the smaller ma
tons of the world. Belgium,
Servia, Syria, Armenia, and Po-
land have knocked at our door for
aims and have met with a gener-
Gus response. Thirty millions of
dollars have been expended for re-
lief in these countries. The latest
small nation to ask us for aims is
the principally of Albania. We
doubt not that America will once
more heed the call Of misery.

That Is One Rule of City's New
Traffic Law.
Ordinance and Trouble Go
Into Effect Today.

Street Cars May Not Stop in
Middle of Avenue Blocks.
Jail, One of Many Possibilities
of New Measure.

Comparatively speaking, several
new possibilities for pedestrians and
operators of private and public We
hicIes are contained in the new traffic
ordinance, effective today. Chief
among the possibilities are excellent
prospects that someone. thru ignor-
ance of one or more of the many rules
of the ordinance. may find himself in
jail. Another is that street cars may
discontinue stopping between blocks
on Kansas avenue Still another is
that Topekans who own motor cars
equipped with headlights that glare
like the eyes of Celestial dragon
may have to spend good money for
DINNERS or getting the glass in

to tone down the brilliance- In truth

When the new ordinance was turn
ed loose this morning the city hall
didn't hear anything to remind it
that there was such a thing for a few
hours At the end of that time the
reminder came in the shape of an
irate jitneur. First he told his trou-
bles to City Clerk Covel1 with a rapid
ity that seemed to daze that official
and then he went TO George Hayden,
city attorney.
Under Hayden's Xamination
it was found that the jitneur was
tangled up in the angles and curves
partially. and partially he was labor
ing with real problem. His COM
plant was that the clause prohibiting
the parking of vehicles in ) feet of a

TRAIN A CENTIPEDE
San FARRELL Tells of SOldierly
Pest on Border.
Topeka Soldier Glad to Get
Back to Civilization.

To awaken at the first call of re-

bilious centipede making a nest five
inches from your ear would be some
what of shock to the average man.
To discover a family of tarantulas on
a blanket. or rattIesnake on a pair
of army pants. is neither romantic nor
military. Such Inconvenience occur
red frequently on the Mexican border
during the past summer, according to
Sanford FARRELL. of the Third Missouri
Infantry. who is in Topeka visiting his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank farrell
"A mere scorpion was beneath our
notice" J. rrell said today, because
the bite of scorpion does not keep
a man on the hospital call for more
than two or three days A centipede
furnishes more excitement, aItho its
bite is not always fatal The National
Guards went to tn border expecting
excitement and the only touch of it
they received was from these poison
Gus insects
FARRELL insists that while the militia
men on their return will bring home
no entertaining fish stories, they will
substitute by telling wild tales of CEN
tipedes and tarantulas.

rifle range that measured eight inches

him Percival. A man in our company,
