two gilded arm chairs had been
placed. The President was admitted
Immediately to the presence of the
Holy Father, who was gowned in
white.
In his conversation with the Presi.
dent the pontiff gave expression to
sentiments similar to those of Mr.. Will
son, and enlarged upon the themes.
In view of ,the,-President's answer to
the papal peace offer months ago, the
reception of the American executive
at the Vatican was looked forward to
with great interest in all official cir
cles, and the warm greeting ex-
changed by the President and the
Pontiff were commented upon with
much satisfaction.
When Pope Benedict shook hands
with the members of President Will
sons party he was asked to bestow
his blessing.
Every well," he said
One member of the party asked how
many of those present were Catholics.
The Pope evidently understood the
question, for he replied, in Italian:
THAT makes no difference. This
blessing is for you, and for your near
and dear ones"
While earlier functions were in
progress Pope Benedict was giving
audience to a delegation of American
newspaper men. to whom he expressed
hopes for a lasting peace, his appre-
citation of the part America was play
ing in the efforts to achieve it, and
voicing his confidence in the continu-
ing and increasing influence OF the
United States in the worlds affairs.

attention in Ireland, there is another
very interesting matter, particularly
for Catholics Quite large fund was
raised short time ago in the coun-

REUNION OF GHR|sTEN|DOM
OBSERVANCE OF CHURCH UNITY
OCTAVE Is URGED-TAkES
PLACE JANUARY 1925.

Since the Church Unity Octave had
its first observance, in the year 1908,
the practice has steadily grown and
now has an extensive list of adher-
ents, principally in the United States,
Canada and Great Britain. This
Octave of Prayer for the Reunion of
Christendom is observed every year
from January 18, the feast of st.
Peters Chair, to January 25, feast of
the Conversion of st. Paul. The late
Pope Plus X approved and blessed
the devotion, and the present Pontiff,
Benedict XIV, in February, 1916, is
sued an Apostolic Brief in its favor,
extending the observance of the
Church Unity Octave to the Univer-
sal Church, and enriching it with in
dulgences, including plenary indul-
gence granted to every one of the
faithful who on the first or last day
of the octave shall receive Holy Com
munion under the usual conditions.
Although the seed of this idea of an
annual crusade of prayer for unity
among Christians was suggested by
an Anglican clergyman, the practice
was originated by the Very Rev. Paul
James Francis, editor of the Lamp and
superior of the Society of the Atone.

Octave was held in 1907 and it has

Father Paul in urging a wider OBJ,
sevance of the octave this year, says
"The whole Catholic Church prayed
for peace for over four years and al
last that universal prayer has been
most happily answered Now we mus
echo Our Lords own prayer ut

Colonel Roosevelts last message to

1t was delivered at the All-American
benefit concert, given by the American
Defense society in the Hippodrome at

"Must Be No Sagging Back"
There must be no sagging back in
the fight for AmericanisIn merely be-
cause the war is over. There are plen-
ty of persons who have already made
the assertion that they believe the
American people have short memory
and that they intend to revive all the
foreign associations which most direct
ly interfere with the complete Ameri-
canization of our people. :s
Our principle in this matter should
be absolutely simple. In the first place
we should insist that if the immigrant
who comes here in. good faith become
an American and assimilates himself
to us he shall be treated on an exact
equality with everyone else, for it is
an outrage to discriminate against any
such man because Of creed or birth
place or origin.
Groom Here for But One Flag"
But this is predicated upon the
mans becoming in fact an American
and nothing but an American. But If
he tries to keep segregated with men
of his own origin and separate from
the rest of America then he isn't doing
his part as an American.
"There can be no divided allegi-
ance here. Any man who says he is
an American, but something else also,
isn't an American at ALL We have
room for but one flag, the American
which symbolizes all wars against
liberty and civilization, just as it ex-
cludes any foreign flag of a nation to
which we are hostile. We have room
for but one language here and that is
the English language, for we intend
to see that the crucible turns our peo.
pie out as Americans, of American ma.
tionality and not as dwellers in poly.
glot boarding house, and we have room
