BRITISH AIRMEN
IN BATTLE BOMB
{ GERMAN PLANTS
Mannheim and Frankfort At
tackled by English Flyers;
Damage Chemical Works

London, Aug. 27.-Chemical fac
tories at Mannheim and the railway
station at Frankfort were success

! British independent air force, ac-
I cording to an official communica-
! ton issued last night. All the Brit
ish machines returned safely to their
] base.

planes in the bombing of Mannheim
| last Thursday.
The outstanding feature of the ex-
plot was the heroic determination
of the British squadrons. They were
heavily attacked as they flew to
their objective; they knew that
equally stern fighting would await
them on their way back. but nothing
daunted them. "It takes more than
the risk OF danger to halt British
airmen when they have made up
their minds to reach an objective"
says one newspaper.
The Germans were in largely su-
perior numbers and had only to
think of fighting and bombing to
which to attend. The odds were all
on the German side, but the British
aviators reached. Mannheim and did
their job. Three German fighting
airplanes were beaten down.
Newspaper editorials say the
bombing vas well worth the risk,
for Mannheim is the center of the
great chemical industry. and the
raid is believed to have done damage
that will compel the German armies,
for a time at least, TO do without
supplies of war chemicals from that
quarter. Commenting on the raid,
a British air officer said:
I'VE suffered losses, but we won a
splendid victory. We set out to
bomb Mannheim and no German .ef-
forts could Illustrate our Intention"

France, Aug. 27.-American bomb

Conflans Sunday, dropping bombs
on the railroad yards, despite heavy
antiaircraft fire. All the bursts
were we'll together at the east end
of the yards, one causing a heavy
explosion, as though an ammunition
car had been hit. The northern edge
of the roundhouse also was struck
German airplanes appeared as the
Americans completed their mission
and followed the Americans back to
their lines, but failed to engage
them in battle.

Francisco, The Indian Boy

Noble, heroic men were those good
franciscan Fathers who, in the early
days of CALIFORNIA; history, left home
and everything they possessed in the
world, to come and tell the children
OF the desert about God, Who created
them, and the Saviour, Who died for
them.
over hill and valley good Padre An
tonic and his companions journeyed
in those far off days, and many of
the heather Indians did the brave
priest win by his kindness and gentle
words, and the savage people soon
understood that he wished to be a
friend to them.
But some of the Indians showed
open dlspleasure toward the padres,
and among them was a certain chief
tain, proud, handsome man, who
was treated with great respect by his
people.
One day Padre Antonio called at
the chiefs wigwam.. The wife and
little son of the proud Indian were
friendly, and smiled when the priest
spoke kindly to them, but the man
was very surly. He showed, by his
naughty manner and aggressive air.
that he wished to have nothing to
do with these people of a new race
and religion.
But although the chief felt I'M
friendly toward Padre Antonio and
MS companions, not so the little In
olan boy, for he smiled UP at the
missionary when the latter patted his
dark head. He liked the strange man
IN the brown robe, who wore sandals
on his feet, instead of moccasins. and
the boy even ventured to finger the
large beads of the rosary that hung
from the priests girdle. They rat
tied in way that he liked. Still
the small savage would prefer to have
them in gay colors, such as the bead
necklaces his own people wore. His
mother and his father, too, had on a
wonderful string of bright beads. It
was queer that the padre did not wear
his own about his neck.
PRESENTLY the boy was attracted by
the crucifix that the priest wore in
MS girdle. He reached his hands
for it and stared in wonder at the OBJ
Jeet which Padre Antonio placed in
the outstretched fingers. When he
had permitted the little fellow to hold
and examine it for some time. the
priest smilingly put out his hand for
the crucifix. But the young Indian
emphatically shook his head, and held
the holy symbol close.

one of the principal speakers at the

Reception Into Visitation Order
A correspondent of The Sacred
Heart Review sends an account of
the reception into the Visitation
Order, at Georgetown, d. c., of Miss
Madeleine M. de Gryse, of Roulers,
Belgium, who has taught French in
that institution several years. Her
name in religion is Sister Marie.

ish of Saint Francis of Assist, Staun-

Marie is the daughter of Jean l.. and
Eugene Octavie de Gryse, of Roulers,
both of whom were eminent in virtue
and culture. Mrs. de Gryse when
quite young, was the principal of one
Of the schools of Roulers, but at the
time of the PRONUNCIATION of the law
of 1879, prohibiting religious instruc-
ton in the Government schools, she
resigned her post, an act which was
regarded with admiration and for
which she received from Leo XIII the
papal decoration, PRO Ecclesia ct
Pontifice." Sister Marie Eugene fol-
lowed the academic course in the
Pensionnat des Soeurs Crises, Rou-
lers, and later pursued her studies
in the Normal School at Thielt. She
taught in that institution two years.
In September, 1909, she was engaged
as French teacher in the Visitation
Convent, Georgetown.

Every man has time enough to do
his whole duty. When he leaves a
duty undone. or discharges it in the
consciousness that it is not as well
done as it should be, his lack Of time
is never the real reason for his failure
or his shortening. For duty is Gods
call, and God never asks man to do
what he has not time to do wen.

IA pronounced majority of the boards

distinctly stronger demand for raising
the maximum age than for lowering the
