Concerning Monsfgnor Fay.

So vital to the Allied cause is the article---'The Voice of the Vatican" by Monsignor Fay, that the reader would better know the facts in regard to this most eminent and courageous author.
 Cyril Sigourney N. Fay was born June 16, 1875, in Philadelphia His father was Lieut.-Colonel Fay of the United States Army, his mother hay ing been born in Hutchinson. He at- tended the University of Pennsylva- mia and received the Degree of Bach elor of Arts in 1897. In 1902 he en- tered the Episcopal Divinity School ell was ordained a deacon by Bishop Weller, and in 1903 was made an arch deacon. His ecclesiastical life was led at this time in Wisconsin, and in 1908 he resigned from the professorship of Dogma and Moral Theology. A year later he was a delegate to the Epis- copal convention at Richmond, Va. On June 8, 1908, he was received in the Catholic church at Deal, New Jer- sey and year later matriculated as a student at Divinity Hall in the Catholic University of America, in Washington, D. c. On June 21, 1910, Ldo duIIOI OA L4LlS 5IuPCLOOoo pLOS- 1 lamat1on was ordained a priest by i Cardinal Gibbons in the Baltimore Cathedral. His rise to en1inence in | the Roman Catholic church has been steady owing to his attachments of
 mind and heart. It may be imagined
 that this document penned by Mon
 signor Fay will be powerful means
 of disentangling the Austro- -Hunga-
 rian people from the readily clutches of the Prussian over-lords.

 '"The regulations then warn regis trants and all other persons charged with knowledge of the regulations that ignorance of the provisions will not excuse them.
 These regulations, 1t is set forth, have the force and effect of law, and all persons required to be regulations to be registered and all persons who may claim any right or privilege in respect of any registrant, are charged with knowledge of the provisions hereof.

 Regulations prescribed by the Pres ident and sent to draft officials throughout the state contain these provisions:
 "On the day for registration all federal marshals, deputy marshals and Investigating agents, and all police of- ficers, state, county, township, muni- cipal and town-of whatever grade or class, shall hold themselves in read mess to render whatever assistance may be necessary In preserving order at places of registration and in bring ing about a complete registration.

GOVERNOR HOLCOMB ISSUES PROCLAMATION CALLING UPON
 MEN TO REGISTER FOR DRAFT
Rules for Registration Are Also Promulgated By Major Buckley, Draft Executive of the State-An Men Be- tween 1s and 45 Years Not Previously Registered , Affected By the New Law.

Hartford, Sept. - Connecticut Is called upon for 100 per cent. regis tration of men from IS to 45 years of age, inclusive, unless previously registered, in a proclamation issued today by Gov. Marcus H. Holcomb. At the same time, Major John Buck ley, draft executive for Connecticut, made public statement covering the application of the selective service regulations in this state.
 Governor Holcomb's proclamation follows:
 "Once more are our people called upon to give a practical demonstra- ton of democracy by the application of the selective draft in war. The principle that all should serve who share lies at the foundation of all free government. Seldom in our his- tory has the fitness of the American people to govern themselves been bet ter demonstrated than by the prompt ness, orderliness, honesty and good will with which our young men from 21 to S1 years of age compiled with the provisions of the first draft.
 Our men from IS to 45, not in cluded In the previous draft, are now about to be called upon to face a like duty and give a similar exhibition of patriotism and elf-government. As the governor of the State of Connecti- cut call upon all citizens thus affect ed, together with their relatives and friends, to bear in mind the high tra- ditions of this commonwealth and add new lustre to the proud name, by the fidelity and good spirit with which this federal statute is obeyed."
 September 12 Is the Day.
 The President of the United States, by proclamation, has fixed Thursday Sept. 12, for the registration of all men between the ages of 8 and 45, inclusive, for military service except those who have already registered and those who are not required under the law to do so.
 Major BuckIey's Explanation.
 Major Buckley explained the rul- ings issued by the Provost Marshal General as to the persons required to register under the act as follows:
 All male persons who shall have attained their 18th birthday and shall not have attained their 46th birthday on or before the day set for registra- tion by the President must register The only exceptions are:
 "(A) Persons, who, prior to the day set for registration by the Presi. dent, have registered under the termt of the act approved May IS, 1917 (which fixed the original age limits a 21 to 30, inclusive) or under the terms of the public resolution of Congress approved May 20, 1918 (providing fol the registration since June 5, 1917, oi those reaching the age of 21 years) whether called for public service ol not; and who have declared their In. tentions to become citizens of the United States wlo do not register or account of absence from the territor ial limits of the United States are re quired to register within five day after their return to the United
