Alice Joyce, Sweet Alice O Kalem," as she has long been nick named has always been considered one of the mo t beautiful of screen actresses, and one can seldom pick up a motion picture nagaz ne tha' doesn't contain picture oI heI But recently it is seldom one sees a picture of the actress the favor ite poses of her shown being that of mother" l was reading recent! that Alice (who, by the way, is now with Vitagraph) has two hob, bies-two all-absorbing pa sions in her young life. Yet so closely are they woven together that neither interferes with adoration for the other. The two hobbies are her handsome husband, Tom Moore, and her lovely little daughter, Alice Mary Moore, now going on one year old Of course there are other interests in Alice's Hfe-she is fond of see ing good pictures. no matter who plays in them, and her enthusia. m over a particularly good bit of act ing is as fresh and girlish as if she had never seen the inside of a movie studio. Another interest is a study of palmistry. one of the oldest arts in the world.
 But the two greatest, mot won derful parts of her life are Tom and Baby Alice.

WITNESS MIXED UP.

Dr. w. Stafford, of the coroners office. was the first witness for the state. He told of having visited the scene of the carnage caused by the explosion, in his official capacity, and also of his deductions regarding the position from which the bomb was thrown. On cross examination, how ever. he became badly mixed up, saving that the bomb did not eX- plode from the sidewalk as he L said on direct examination. because so many of the victims of the eX- plosion were wounded in the head. He later declared that he did not mean what he said on cross-examl- nation.
 Court adjourned at the conclusion of the examination of the witness by the attorney for the defense. It is probable, however, that Dr. Staf' ford will be recalled to the stand tomorrow by the prosecution, as the state contends that the bomb ex ploded in a suit case lying on the sidewalk.

Parish Recreation Field
BROOKLYN HAS THE ONLY ONE
in THE UNITED STATES.

Completely equipped and ready for
immediate use, the new McGolrick
Recreation Field, the property of st,
Cecilia's parish, Brooklyn, N. Y, is
said to be the first athletic and recrea
ton field to be owned by any Catholic
parish in the United States.
The opening day was Saturday
afternoon, July 81, with an elaborate
athletic program, raising of an Ameri
can flag, and an address by United
States Senator Calder. There was an
attendance of several thousand people
The new field, covering an entire
block, has been laid out with a running
track five laps to the mile, a baseball
diamond, open air basketball court
and playground for the children. Il
is surrounded by stone wall and has
grand stand seating several thou
sand people. Under the grand stanG
are meeting rooms, dressing rooms
and shower baths. The field plot is
200 by 400 feet.
An investment of $4,000 is repre-
sented in the field. Since it was pur
chased last November, Mgr. McGol
rick has spent on it's development thu
sum of $4,000. The children solt
land slips to defray some of the cos
of the field, and other means of rails
ing the money were used. The resul
is that the entire present Indebted
ness on the field. including mortgage
is only $4,000.

shut off from the main building by
folding doors which can be opened

Chaplains'. Aid Association
OBJECT OF ORGANIZATION is TO
HELP ARMY cHAPLAlNs IN .
EVERY WAY.

The Chaplains' Aid Association
organized recently in New York City
provides for the needs of Catholic
priests, serving as Chaplains in the
Army and Navy; and cares for the
spiritual welfare of our soldiers and
sailors. The Association publishes
prayer books, pamphlets, catechisms,
hymn books, tracts, particularly
adapted to the needs of our Catholic
soldiers and sailors. Thousands of
non-Catholics brought in touch for the
first time with Catholics and the Cath
lolic service also ask for these prayer
books and catechisms
The Chaplains themselves ask to be
supplied with a kit, containing every
thing necessary for the celebration of
Holy Mass. Such kit must include
altar stone, chalice, linen, vestments,
cruets, altar cards, candlesticks, etc.,
and costs at least $4,000
Devotional articles of every kind,
rosaries, scapular medals, or scapu-
lars, religious pictures, Identification
tags, are asked for in great quanti-
ties. Books, magazines and good read
ing matter of every kind are requested
for the Libraries of the recreation
halls.
The further purpose of the Asso-
citation is to coordinate all work of
Catholic societies for our soldiers and
sailors; to provide central office
that will prevent overlapping so that
no camp shall remain unsupplied, and
no society ready and able to help shall
be uninformed as to where it's help
is most needed
The work of the Chaplains' Aid AS
sociation may be promoted in any To-
cality by establishing local circle,
if one has not already been establish
ed; by the circulation of small banks
through local centres. All informa-
tion concerning ways and means may
be obtained by communicating with

Catholic Appointed TO Office
EDWARD M. HURLEY is NEW
CHAIRMAN OF THE SHIP
PING BOARD.

The appointment Of Edward N. Hur-
ley, of Chicago, I'LL, a. well-known
Catholic layman, as the successor of
William Denman, chairman of the
Shipping Board, has given universal
satisfaction throughout the country.
Mr.. Hurley is native of Galesburg,,
ILL.,, where he was born July 81, 1864.
His first employment was as railroad
fireman. His rise from humble begin.
nings was spectacular, and due to his
invention of a pneumatic tool an in
strument which revolutionized steel
construction. He failed to impress
American financiers with the value of
his invention, but went to London
where he interested English capital
Returning to Chicago he opened fac
tory, which he later sold. In Decem-
Der, 1915, he was made chairman of
the Federal Trade Commission, po-
sition which he held until few
months ago.

been writing for the press since his
twentieth year. Amongst his best
known works are The Poets of

nineteenth centuries, and being ac-
quainted with all the celebrated Irish
writer's of the present day, Mr..
.O'Donoghue had unique opportunities

NOTRE DAME MEDICAL
SCHOOL
OPENS TWo-YEAR
REGULAR COURSE IN MEDICINE
AS A PREPARATION FOR STU.
DENTS WHO COMPLETE THEIR
WORK IN NoN-cATHoLic INsTl-
TUTIoNs.

The University of Notre Dame
Notre Dame, Ind, has just established
School of Medicine covering the first
two years of the regular medical
course. 1t will add the other two
years as soon as the growth OF
the school justifies it and whenever
clinical facilities and eminent pro
fessors can be secured In the mean
time, students completing the first
half of the medical work at Notre
Dame will enter some approved school
of medicine for the last two years of
their course.
1t is thought that young man
who has completed two years of col
lege work as an entrance requirement,
and has afterwards had two years of
a strong medical course ought to be
able to meet the temptations of the
ordinary medical school without in
jury either to faith or morals. There
are great Catholic schools of medicine
in this country, but nearly all other
schools of medicine are infidel or
agnostic in their attitude towards re-
ligion. In many cases the professors
ridicule the idea of the existence of
the soul, On many points the doc
trine and practice of these schools
are directly at variance with the
moral teaching of the Church. Com
plants are frequent that Catholic
young man attending such schools is
fatally injured in faith and morals.
It is fair to assume that liza young
man has completed his high school
work and has then spent four years
in q pu!Aolic University, having COM
pie -uoO 9tgood course of Philosophy,
hd uvssrrv-,eo be reasonably safe. This
is what the proposed Medical School
at Notre Dame sets out to do. 1t sup
plies the young medical student with
a Catholic atmosphere during the
Freshman and Sophomore years of
his course and gives him during that
time the same reasonable supervision
and asssssaIsse that careful parents
give their boys at home.

SISTERS SUMMER SCHOOL

I j
and Rossomandi, demonstrates the
famous singing tone of the Italian
school of pianoforte playing. In re-
cital, Mr.. Scionti's faultless technique
and thoughtful Interpretation gave
much pleasure to his audience.
During the session Mr.. Crosse gave
a most interesting lecture-recital in
which he contrasted the works of the
classical period with those OF the
romantic period. Mr.. Crosse was
assisted by Mrs. Crosse who read sew
eral admirable selections.
The Violin Department was under
the direction of Sister Renata who is
at present in charge of that depart
ment at the College. The rendition
of various numbers on the violin in
several recitals given during the sum-
mer school betokens the success of
her work in that department. Her
assistant teacher was Sister Aloysia.
Another interesting feature of the
Institute was the singing department,
consisting of sight singing and public
school music under the direction Of
Sister Anna, B. S. in Arts from Column
bia University, N. Y.
Mr.. F. W. Mueller of the Twin City
Conservatory of Music, Minneapolis,
who supervised the Key Board
Harmony division, was assisted by
Sister Wilfrida Mr. Mueller handles
in a scholarly, masterful way the
system of harmony which he presents
and accommodates his method to
present day needs.
The summer school gratefully ac-
knowledges the kindness CT the fol-
lowing artists for pleasant hours
spent during the session Mr.. Carl
Cochems of New York; Mrs. Kathleen
Hart-Bibb, Minneapolis; Mr.. Cady
Kenny, Minneapolis; Miss Helen
Mueller, Minneapolis; Miss Dobyns,
Minneapolis.
The Music Section closed with
series of lectures on the Progressive
series of standardiZing music.
At the close of the Summer School,
Archbishop Ireland addressed the
Sisters and commended them for the
work done during the session. He
spoke on the special needs of the
hour along educational lines and
dwelt upon the great good which
could be accomplished through the
thoroughness Of well prepared teach
ers.
