whose punishment fitted their crime
When they appeared in the pillory they
did so with one of their short weight

vintner who used false measure also
stood in the pilIory with his measure
suspended from his neck, and the fish
monger who sold bad fish was similar

entire work THE Judaic Develop

work for the older composition at
end of the hall a series of paintings
representing the Theme of the Ma
donna" occupy the two side inches
and the strip of ceiling inclosing the
Christian end. The important repre-
sensations are the Amelia Dominp
and the Mater Dolorosa.' The 10
"mysteries of the rosary surround
these. There are the five joyful mys-
teries. the five sorrowful mysteries,
and the five glorious mysteries, cul-
minating in the coronation of the yir-
gin. Above the Madonna and child
the panels devoted to the five joyful
mysteries begin with the large paint
ing of the annuneiation. The archan-
gel Gabriel appears to the virgin,
who, kneeling before him, receives
the wonderful tidings On the scroll
entwined about the palm branch that
the angel holds are the words: ave
gratia plena. dominus tecum, bene-
dicta tn in mulieribus. Ecce AMELIA
domini; fat mihi secundum verbum
tuum." The remaining panels in this
part of the niche depict respectively
the visitation. the navitiyity, the pre-
sentation and the finding OF our Lord
in the temple as narrated in the sec
ond chapter of St. Luke.
Opposite, on the west side of the
arch, the corresponding panels, de-
picting the i've sorrowful mysteries,
represent the agony of our Lord in
the garden. the scourging of Christ,
the GROWING with thorns, the car
rying OF the cross and the crucifixion.
The series of the five glorious mys-
teries occupies the ceiling. The first
OF these is the resurrection, then
comes the ascension of our Lord into
heaven, then the descent of the Holy
Ghost, the assumption of the virgin

give any effective military aid to the

"The American army is no danger

PLANS APPEAL TO PUBLIC
PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS FAIL
TO COORDINATE.
Differ on Consumption Bill and other
Measures-stone and Kitohin
Promise Help.

Washington, D. c. President
Wilson will appeal directly to the
people Of the nation if he finds it i'm
possible otherwise to overcome the
opposition to his war plans. This
was made very plain when the chief
executive resumed his conferences
with senators and representatives to
smooth out the obstacles to the con.
scription army plan.
Team work between the White
House and congress is somewhat
strained at present.
Although Senator Stone and Repre-
sentative Kitchin opposed the war
resolution, both Of them are now lined
up for the Administrators policies,
and this is certain to help. But there
Is opposition materializing from unex-
pected quarters that may prove EN-
harrassing. It eenters In the men
who are utterly opposed to conscrip-
ton, and whose views now are being
generally Endorsed by the pacifst
movement throughout the country.
The fact that in the house Chairman
Dent Of the military affairs commit
tee is leading the opposition to con.
scription is proving really embarrass-
ing to President Wilson, administ~a-
ton leaders say.
The Administrations espionage bills
are also going to encounter rough
sailing. Opponents of the measures
and they are numerous, as will be
shown when they reach the floor Of
the senate and the house-declare
they are too drastic 1t will require
positive proof by the administration
of the extent Of the spy movement If
the bills are to be put through in the
form in which they have been drafted
by the department Of justice.
