limited to the properly accredited camp
chaplains who wear the army uniform
and whose loyalty and responsibility are
known and guaranteed.
The order barring unauthorized re-
ligious workers from thu camps has
brought a protest from a small section
of the sectarian press, although that or
der was first submitted to the Committee
of Six who advise the secretary of wa +
/ upon religious matters and also to tine

ties, and approved by both. The objec
| tors declare that the order strikes at
the root of religious liberty" With q
rare misunderstanding of the situation
they complain that the government is
trying to prescribe what soldiers should
hear and what they should believe" And
they are being encouraged by those pro-
German sympathizers who have been SO
busily stirring up religious differences
and sectaran strifes in this country
in order to impair our national unity
and set us fighting each other instead
of fighting Germany.
The order is plainly an exercise of
necessary military authority, of the
simplest sort 1t is directed against no
religion. any more chan the order that
only military medical officers shall prac-
tice in camp is directed against any
school of medicine. 1t strikes at religious
liberty no more than the prescription
of unauthorized orators i'll camp strikes

CATHOLICS LIFT MEAT BAN.
Abstinence Not to Be Required Next
Friday.

Roman Catholics all over the world
are exempted next Friday from observ-
ing the strict rule Of the church requir-
ing abstinence from meat on Fridays.
This exemption is brought about by the
fact that Friday is holy day of obi
CATION, the Feast of All Saints But all
Roman Catholics are obliged To hear
mass, the same as on Sundays
Up to about seven years ago holy DAYS
falling on Friday carried no exemption
from the use of meat, but the reigning
pope at the time, Plus X, issued de-
cree authorizing the use of meat on Fri
days which fell on holy days The pres
cnt pope has not seen fit to nullifv this
decree, with the result that on Friday
Catholics will be permitted the usual
liberty of eating meat. Announcement
of this exemption was made from the
affairs of many churches last Sunday.
But Roman Catholics will be required
to fast on Thursday, the vigil of All
, Saints. A dispensation is granted, how
ever, to those employed at laborious
work; they and their families may eat
meat at the principal meal. The same
applies to those who are i'll or GONZALES
cent.

of fine new trimmings CT flax and

Do you realize dear reader that
Jackson county must absorb War
Saving Stamps to the amount OF
Sal $4,000 during the year 1918.
DO you realize that this amount
is the same that we were called
upon to produce in the Second
Liberty Loan? Like the patriotic
folk we are, we made good on
the Liberty Loan and we must do
the same thing in the War Stamp
campaign. 1t is wrong for us to
even think that we cannot raise
this amount of money-we are in
war and the Press is of the opin-
ion that a good many OF us do
not realize the fact, but the time
is here when we must wake up
and come to an understanding of
the situation. J. II. Snyder of

and he has named a committee in
different towns and localities
throughout the county whose
duty it is to secure all needed as.
SlStance and push the sale of
stamps. The SAL, $40 must be
raised in Jackson county and
every citizen, if he has not done
50 already, should secure a card
from some of the selling agents
and begin to buy stamps, thus
aiding the government who needs
the cash, and at the same time
lay little money aside for a
saving to be used by him when
occasion demands.
