Knights OF Columbus Worker PRESIDED
At Meeting In Ruined Chapel
In France

Had It not been for Father James
Horton. formerly principal Of the Mar
fst College In Atlanta, Ga. but now
q volunteer chaplain with the Knights
of Columbus overseas. there would
have bsen no services In the little
ruined chapel Of st. Crepin in the
sheIl-torn town Of Chateau Thierry
when the Yanks poured into the city
and drove tho Huns hack toward tho
Rhine. The Knights of Columbus are
one Of the seven war work agencies
to Join In the United Wark Work
Campaign, November Ills, to raise
$l70,5oo.ooe.
Father Horton was right up with
the vanguard Of the on-rushing Ameri-
cans and, after the Germans had been
cleaned out Of their cellars and ma
chine gun ambushes, the old Cure,
who had emerged from some unknown
hiding place, insisted on holding serv-
Ice In st. Crepin's chapel to celebrate
the liberation Of the city.
There were no evestments, no can
dies, no sacred vessels. But Father
Horton rode q motorcycle back to the
headquarters of the Knights of Co
lumbus. secured the supplies needed
by the Cure and rushed them back
by automobile.
The services were held and no more
fervent Te Deums ever were uttered
than those that went up from that lit
tie shell-wrecked chapel in devastated,
but liberated, Chateau Thierry.

Arrival of Police Sent Him
Hurrying to His Work

There the cork is out now,
must go to work" Thus, with wa
teIing mouth. spoke well-known
police character this morning as out
of the corner of his eye he saw ap-
preaching the police patrol to assist
Thomas Clifford. intoxicated, to the
police station.
Clifford, by the way, who has been
boarding at 1913 South Second street
was intoxicated Saturday night when
he was refused admittance to his
clearinghouse. This morning he re-
turned in the same condition and was
again denied admission. So he lay
down on the front porch with his
blessed pint. In the meantime DO
lice headquarters were notified.
During the interval Clifford became
thirsty for a swallow from the flask
end withdrew it from his pocket. He
struggled and struggled with the
cork, but it would not come out. Just
then the police character came along
and his mouth watered. so he volun-
tee1ed his assistance. But Just as he
got the cork out and Just as he was
ready to reap the much-coveted re-
wsrd, the police patrol hove in sight.
And so he went on his way to
work"
"This is the first time" policemen
said, that the character ever
worked"
