other than Cassius Lee, Virginia gen
tleman who is out on big hunting
expedition. Young Lee carries on his
search in the neighborhood OF sea
side hotel where there is dearth of
men.
Only Fairbanks could play the part.
for he performs feats which would
be absolutely impossible for the ordi-
nary mortal. He pursues butterflies IN
the topmost branches of the trees
swinging from limb 10 limb with an
agility which confirms ones belief IN
the Darwin theory.
Jewel Carmen is the girl who kisses
Cassius and makes him alive to the
fact that there are butterflies IN the
hotel as we'll as in the trees. She does
il on a dare. and from that time on
Cassius spends his time hunting the
girl who kissed him. He goes to the
hotel dance unlimited and gains an en-
trance by scaling the wall. Such de-
termination deserves TO win, and II
does. for he manages to meet the girl
and evidently makes an impression.
Jewel, however, is the daughter OF
Leander Hick. the man who put the
hump in the hatpin, and when he learns
that Cassius is mere +. +. V. and -

there is anything he cannot do.
Jewel has another lover, Percy Hor-

to Mexico. Cassius discovers this and
finally rescues Jewel and father Hlck
from pirate ship via an aeroplane and
torpedo boat destroyer.
Even then Cassius is not allowed to
enter the Lee family, because he never
has earned any money. With tears IN
her eyes Jewel begs him to show her
that he really loves her by going to
work. In his embarrassment he toys
with his lady's hat and, taking the
hatpin therefrom he bends it in two

Jewel seizes the pin, crying: Lees

CONDITIONS CHANGING
MORE FAIRNESS TO THE CHURCH
APPEARING IN ITALY.

The following is notable instance
of the part Catholics are taking in
the life of Rome, and indeed of Italy,
just now. In the report of the work
of civil organization, dealing with one
quarter of Rome alone, the populous
Testaccio district, one reads in the
Messaggero an appreciation of the en-
ergy of all, to whatever political party
or religious faith they may belong.
And one finds unstinted praise given
to the "Circolo San Pietro," the great
Catholic charitable work, and to the
self.sacrifice of the nuns in charge of
it; to that of the Salesians, who have
charge of the parish; the parish priest,
Father Olivarez, having just been
created Bishop of Nepi and Sutri; to
the Sisters of Santa Maria Ausilia.

justify observers in saying that at the
present moment the hostility to the

had to be fought SO hard in the last
pontificate, shows no signs of exist

SETTING MATTERS RIGHT
CARDINAL BOURNE, OF ENGLAND,
ON THE QUESTION OF ARMY
AND NAVY cHAPLAINS.

Many papers, and some of our Cath
olic exchanges, have argued injustice
in the British Government in not ap-
pointing a sufficient number of Cath
olic chaplains for the field forces
His Eminence Cardinal Bourne, of
Westminster, has addressed long let
ter on the subject to Cardinal Farley,
of New York. In his communication
Cardinal Bourne says:
"At once on the outbreak of the
war all our permanently commissioned
chaplains who were physically capable
of the strenuous work involved,
twelve in number, were despatched
with the Expeditionary Force to
France. This number was in excess
of the proportion of chaplains allowed
to other religious bodies.
I'm a very short while it was found
that the exceptional circumstances of
the campaign rendered necessary a
number of chaplains in excess of that
normally required, and all the religious
bodies called for an increase. The
| inevitable difficulties of transport
| caused the military authorities to
raise objection to any large increase
of non-combatants, and they de
INJURED to the request. Seeing the
danger of delay, | personally ap
preached the Prime Minister, and oul
request was granted.
''The proportion of Catholic chap
lains accorded to us was always il
excess of the proportion of Catholic:
