CARDINAL MERGER
 TO VISIT AMERICA

Cardinal Mercier of Belgium Is coming to the United States in May or in the early fall, William J. MuIligan, chairman of the Knights of Colum- bus Committee on War Activities, an nounced last week. MT. MuIligan, on his recent visit abroad, visited the Cardinal at Malines, and invited him to be the guest in this country of the Knights of Columbus. The Cardinal then told him that his visit was cer- tain, and expressed a keen desire to make the trip.
 ''I talked for nearly two hours with the Cardinal" Mir. Mulligan said. "We sat together in his study. Through the doorway l could look into the drawing room, where the ceiling had been pierced by a bomb that dropped to the cellar and exploded. Cardinal Mercier looked thin and worn, bus he was alert and active. I know he is keeping up, without relaxation, the tremendous labors he has borne since
 the beginning of the war.
 He expressed his appreciation of
 the help America had extended to Belgium. It came, he said. at the most opportune time He was en- thusiastic also about the American soldiers. I think he wants to come
 to the United States to express per sonally his appreciation of what this country has done.
 The Cardinal said he wanted to see all of our big cities, and mentioned Chicago especially. He did not tell
 me why he particularly desired to see the Illinois city, but he was appar- ently much interested in the West l don't think he wants to be here in 1 the heated season. I think he will be here at least a month I shaT see | him again when I return to Europe ' Mir. Mulligan said that his return 1 to Europe will be in response to re- | quests from General Pershing and 1 Raymond Fisdicl of the War Depart ment's Committee on Training Camr Activities that he be in France until 1 'big welfare problems that are com l ing up daily are settled. He expects 1 to sail in about a month and to visit | the Pope before he returns"

CLOSE OFFICERS CLUB IN LONDON

London, April 5-(Corresponden of The Associated Press)-The Amer fcan Officers Club in London will be closed in April, marking the end of purely British collective hospitality extended to American forces in Eng land. Many Americans who have been stationed in England say that the British people have gone much farther in their efforts to make them contented and comfortable than they could have expected and are carrying home with them pleasant memories of their stay here.
 The Officers Club here probably was the most notable achievement of hospitality. When American officers began to arrive in large numbers there was difficulty in providing club ar rangements War activities at Lon- don had resulted in clubs being over taxed with British newcomers. At the suggestion of Sir Harry Britain, who had spent several months in he United States in 1915, the Pilgrims organization of which he is president, undertook to provide a club.
 The paIatiaI house of Lord Lecon- field had been obtained and the club was organized. It was popular from the day IL opened anu InTOuSh IL American officers were given the op- portunity to become acquainted with English people.
 In entertaining Americans in their homes Londoners did not Copfne themselves to men they had met al the officers club. Almost daily, American army and navy headquar- l ters received requests that they desig- nate a, few men for teas, dances or | dinners.
 i A committee of the Ministry of In. | formation devoted itself to entertain | ing Americans for several months. i The National Sporting Club was fre 1 to Americans in uniform Wednesday 1 Vice A dnliraI Sims and General Bid 1 de, the American commanders, ire 1 quentIy attended. Theatrical man
 agers arranged performances ever! | Sunday night at the Palace theatr,
 for Americans in uniform. Theatr tickets to many London attraction
 were free to any American soldier fo 1 the asking at any time and hundred
 of men took advantage Of this hos | pitality.
 This committee also sent entertain
 CTS to hospitals where American
 wounded were receiving treatne
 and it provided theatrical attraction
 at other English cities where Amer
 cans were stationed.

UNITARLANISAI.

The first National Unitarian Com vention was opened in New York f1fty-four years ago today. April ,, 1865, for the purpose of strength ening the churches. This meeting, the first of it's kind, was very successful in healing the misunderstandings which had long existed in the ranks of the religious liberals. Unitarianisn had its beginning in 17S3, when Rev. James Freeman induced the cOngre- gation of the Kings Chapel to accept Unitarian doctrines. In 1786 a. Uni tartan congregation was formed in Philadelphia. For some years, how
 ever, the Unitarians were common ly known as Liberal Congreg egatiOnal- ists, and it was not until the days of William ElIery Charming that Uni tarianism became a distinct denomin-
 atiCn. For many years there was
 heated controversy between the Hb-
 eraI and conservative Unitarians. Emerson and Theodore Parker were
 the chief offenders of the liberal school, and were practically driven into isolation and denounced as free thinkers and unbelievers. The na- tionaI convention of Unitarians of a little more than half a century ago gave the denomination greater homo geneity and resulted in g. larger tol- eration which now permits Unitarians to entertain wide divergence of opinion.

ADVERTISING THE CHURCHES.

People who complain about poor church attendance should reflect that the church is the one modern enter prise that has spent comparatively little for advertising
 Most people believe that the church Is a useful institution. They would dislike to live in a town where there were no churches. But the majority of people never formed the church going habit. though they approve of 1t for others.
 The Liberty loan and war drive subscriptions showed what adyertis- ing can do in community work. The sales of Liberty bonds would not have been half as big had it not been for the big publicity campaigns. The merits of the bonds would have been the same, but people would all have said Let George do it.
 Similarly people say Let George do it" in regard to the unadvertised church. A well written campaign of publicity will show that the church is an essential community enterprise, and that everyone who believes thia should take hold to do his share.

FRANCE HONORS
 BISHOP SEAMAN

Bishop Thomas J. Shahan, rector of the Catholic University at Washing ton. D. C., is from Norwich, Connecti- cut, where he received his earI7 ed- ucation, and for a number of years after his ordination attached to this tiocese and was located in several cities in the State. He is frequent
 visitor and several times a year he visits Father P. H. Mclean of Mil ford.
 For his work in the cause of hu- manity during the Great War. Bishop Thomas Joseph Shahan, rector of the Catholic University of America, Wash ington, has been made an officer of the Legion of Honor by the French government.
 The decoration was conferred upon the distinguished prelate in Caldwell Hall at the Catholic University in the presence of a number Of Bishops staying at the university to attend the consecration of the Right Rev. Dr William Turner as Bishop of Buff falo, together with members of the French High Commission and mem bers of the faculty of the university. The decoration was conferred in be- half of the. French government by 1 Edouard de Billy, deputy French
 
 States. Dr. de Billy in presenting the 1 decoration to Bishop Shahan said it
 was in ecognttion of the espousal of
 the French cause in the Great War 1 by Bishop Shahan and his close CO., operation with the hierarchy of l France.
 1 Bishop Shahan in replying said that ! he was grateful to the French gov
 ernment for the great honor conferred upon him, and considered that it was equally an honor for the whole uni
 versity, whose professors and stu dents had always been stanch de- lenders of the French cause, as being Identified with the cause of human
 freedom the world over. The world owed an infinite debt to the relg- ious, literary and social genius o1 France. and the defeat of the 'grande nation" would have been the eclipse of the highest things of civilization | France, he said, had been the hy phen between the Crusades and the national spirit of modern times. MucF had happened in modern times to dis, 1 l?earten the lovers of France in the , new world. but he was certain tha in the new times now dawning France
 would recognize again the supreme value of it's Catholicism as the su. preme moral force and charm of its gifted people.
 Following the ceremony, members
 of the faculty held a reception for tht visitors and later escorted then through the various university build ii0pc

PLENTY OF FOOD.

Dusseldorf, Germany, April 5-The German authorities have reported that there is plenty of food in the vicinity of Dusseldorf but it is difficult forx the poorer classes to purchase it on cards because the food is held for the high prices obtained for smuggled goods.
 Meat when obtained 1egitimately is quoted at the normal equivalent Of s120 a pound, butter at $1.4O, eggs at 20 cents each, flour at five cents a pound and sugar at Z4 cents pound.
 The same foods if sold by smugglers bring from two to five times those prices. Bacon is sold by smugglers for the normal equivalent of S4.O0 to S70o a pound. The men and women aged in the smuggling trade call upon their customers in the cities at night and buy their supplies in the country in the day.

FIGHTING "D0C"
 TO SPEAK HERE

Dr. John H. Clifford and F. T. Col ton, just back from Russia, will speak at a meeting of business men of the State. who are leaders in Y. NJ. c. A. work, at the Stratfield Hotel next Tuesday noon.
 Dr. John H. Clifford, or Doc. of the 5th,' as he Is now known throughout the United States Marine Corps, was born in England and received his ed Ucation in Oxford. At the time of Americas entry into the war, the Doctor was pastor of the First Bap- tist church of Tucson, Arizona. From this city to service with the troops as Q ''E'' secretary was only to be ex- pected of one who has roughed it in all parts of the world.
 When he arrived in Paris, he was immediately attached to the 5th Reg iment of Marines. He was not Q very welcome addition as the Marines Sid not wish a parson to be with their outfit. He. however, remained firm in
 his determinataiOn to get next to them. At the end of three weeks he
 had so won them over that they took
 his blouse and cap and substituted
 the Marine buttons and the insignia
 for the '. NJ. C. A. buttons which had
 formerly been thereon.
 He went through all the hell of
 Chateau Thierry and the Bois de Bel leau with the 9th Marines. He says that every man in that outfit was fully 100 per cent. Not one was afraid to lay down his life. 'L have witnessed so many acts of heroism among my boys that there is not pa per enough on which to set them down." After a statement like that i one ceases to wonder why Baptist Doc thinks more of the insignia of the Marines which he wears upon his i collar and the service buttons upon | his blouse than he does of the Tor l raine cross which was presented to ! him by a French commanding officer who witnessed one day his accom- l panying his boys in an attack. The 1 sight of a civilian going over the tor i so stirred the enthusiasm of the l French officer and his staff that he
 was presented with the decoration 1 upon his return to the lines. The doc | tor was also awarded the Croix dc 1 Guerre as the result of his bravery l in assisting in the rescue of CoIone 1 CatIin at Chateau Thierry. The doc. | tor has both been wounded an6 1 gaSSed

THE FACTS CONVERT
 MIR. WTCKFZRSHA AMI

George W. WiClIersham, a Repub- iican and former United States At tOrney General, went to Europe in December, an opponent. and returned to this country, two months later. an advocate, of a league of nations. What reversed his judgment is related by MT. Wickersham in an interview with the New York ''Wor1d.'' The whole story of this change of mind is sum marized by MT. Wickersham in his statements that 'it wasn't arugment which convinced me. It was a clear CT understand ding of the facts"
 These eloquent and compelling facts are that Americas part in pre- serving and perpetuating peace is a CoroIlary of her entering Europe to stop the recent war; that the people everywhere are yarninE for some guarantee against a repetition of the horrors which they have faced for four years; that the defeat of their hopes in this respect is a provocative Of anarchy and bolshevism, and. final l~, that the only possible insurance against international conflict and in ternaI chaos is q coalition of all 7a- tions-includtng our own-to restore and maintain concord throughout the world.
 Before going to Europe, MT. Wick ersham says, he looked upon the idea of a league of nations with sllep- ticisn" Two months sojour in Eng land and France wrought a change of opinion, he says. T feel sure that none of the leading opponents of the League of nations in America today could go through the same experience without undergoing a like conver- sion"
 International order and the TO- cognition of international law are steps toward peace, but they require | sanction and enforcement such as can be given. Mir. Wickersham be | Iieves. only by an alliance of all the nations sharing a common ideal, ami mated with a common purpose, who ] can trust each other"
 1 People everywhere are looking to i America to give them that guaran- 1 tee" MT. Wickersham says.
