Welcome to Cardinal Mercier.

One cannot close this review of the
important issues before the Detroit
convention without a word as to the
notable occasion of the visit, by spe-
cial invitation, of Cardinal MERCER to
the house of deputies. The oldest
members of the convention have never
seen this staid body SO moved by
strong emotion. The address of well
come of the Rev. DIR. Mann. president
of the house, was remarkable for it's
beauty of diction, fervor and restraint.
The closing words are worthy of re-
membrance:
"It is because the American people
and this house of Christian men see in
you and in your career something that
corresponds to the Prince of Peace
that we formally greet you today-a
great churchman, a great patriot and
great Christian"
And from the cardinals reply we
quote one pregnant sentence, which
evoked prolonged applause from his
audience:
II ask to be allowed to add one
word more. and that is that we are
brothers in Christian faith. What we
must know and teach is that if we are
brothers it is because we are all sons
of the Father Who is in Heaven. Moth =
ing is really absolute except God, and,
therefore, il duty be absolute eternal
ly, if it must be put above all tenn
poral interest, it is because duty is
an obligation of our souls in the pres
ence of a common God, our Father,
Who is in Heaven"

AN EFFECTIVE BREAK
(The Gas Attack.)

A dusky doughboy, burdened under tons of medals and miles and miles of ribbons, service and wound chevrons, stars, ct al., encountered a Twenty seventh division scrapper in Le Mans a few days prior to the divisions de- parture for the states.
 ''Whar yo all been scrappin in dis var war boss?" meekly inquired the colored soldier.
 "Why, we've been fighting up in Bel gium and Flanders with the British, , replied the New Yorker proudly.
 Well, we ben down in dem woods whatcha call 'em woods way down south?"
 "The Argonne?" suggested young Knickerbocker.
 Vas. yas, dem's de woods-d Ar gonne"
 ''You know our division was the first to break the Hindenburg line, colored boy" explained the Twenty seventh man.
 Was it you wot did dat trick Yknow, boss, we felt dat or line sag way down in d Argonne."

ERIVAL OF AUTOS
 ICAUSES REJOICING l AT LOCAL AGENCY

There was great cause for rejoicing t the Cal Messner motor car head usrters on North Central avenue the ast week For be it known, two car oads of automobiles were received. nl each of Hudson Super Sizes and ,sfex.
 Strange as it may seem, automobiles re one of the all important factors in he business of the Cal Messner firm. They are essential and absolutely so, t was declared, in the progress of the firm. Why we can't do a thing if we 1aven't machines" declared one of tn, firm workers.
 So when a couple of carloads of automobiles, the first in nearly two months arrived last week, the Mess ner agency felt more or less like cel-- brating. And celebrate they did,
 East, west, north and south the firm members sallied and when they re- turned. it was announced that the company was again practically out of merchandise. All save two or three of the new cars were sold within a few holirs after the shipment arrived.
 fOh, well! tell 'em we've got lots Of Michelin tires and Rennjoil Lubricat- ing oil" remarked Cal Messner as 8 final parting shot.

OAKLAND MAKES bIG
 GASOLINE AVERAGE.

Speaking of gasoline records, the one made recently by Charles Thew of Hayden in his new Oakland Six is something to be wondered at for a -cylinder car" declared c. c. Mil Ter of the R. D. Roper Motor com pany.
 According to a statement on file in the Roper headquarters. signed by MT. Thew, the latter drove his Oakland from Hayden to Phoenix, a distance of 120 miles, on four gallons of gaso- line. averaging 30 miles to the gallon.
 They was en route from Phoenix to Prescott, where he expected to spend a short vacation. He did not exper- fence anything that even resembles trouble, he stated at the Oakland headquarters heres
 Thew expressed complete satisfac- tion over his Oakland, which he pur- chased from the Roper agency about ten days ago.

diamonds resembled those stolen from the home of an senator of Virginia. An examination of the stones by the ex-senator proved this assumption to be incorrect. The police inquired of the pawner's standing in his home town and received this reply:
 Man is one of our leading attorneys. Worth half million"
 It developed that he had come to Washington to enter the army and urgently needed some immediate money so he pawned his diamonds.
 Of the two measures introduced in congress which will enable the pawn shops to return to the District, Con- gressman Overs bill allows an inter- est rate of three per cent a month on all loans up to $50 and two per cent on all loans above that amount. The other bill by Senator Dillingham; fixes a general rate of two per cent on all loans.
 The Dyer bill provides that the sur | plus money. if any, arising from the sale of the article pawned, after de- ducting the amount of the loan, the interest then due on the same, and the

expenses of the advertisement and sale, shall be paid over by the pawn broker to the person who would be en- titled to redeem the pledge in case no such sale had taken place."
 Another section stipulates that, in addition to the advertisement of sale in the newspapers, it shall be the duty of pawnbrokers to send a letter to the borrower at least three weeks be- fore a sale, callig attention to the fact that the pledge is past; due and will be sold if not satisfactorily arranged for by paying all or portion of accrued in terest." No pawnbroker can sell any goods until they have been in his pos session at least a year, according to the Dyer bill.
 | The original legislation which put the pawn shop out of business ir Washington was aimed at loan sharks those so called ten per centers" who operate on quite different basis. The new legislation will not allow the ter i percenter to resume business. Int
 district government is in favor of let 1 ting uncle" open up again if he i. ] properly regulated.

turned two days later for his coat. The price had jumjed to s3o. There was nothing he could do, but pay the ex- orbitant price.
 Pool-rooms and cheap jewelry stores in Washington are said to do profit able business of a similar nature, but the police have not been able to get sufficient evidence to bring them into court
 It is on account of this kind of busi- ness, that the police are desirous of having the legitimate, regulated, pawn shops return to the capital There are numerous cases on the police records of Washington which show that pawn brokers in the old days proved of val uable assistance to the police in un- earthing jewelry and other goods stolen from some of the leading homes in Washington
 One such paWnbroker in the District before the enactment of the loan shark law was instrumental in having seven valuable pieces of jewelry re- stored to the late Admiral Dewey. In relating the incident. he said that an elderly man came into his office and asked for a loan on an antique gold ! N-ANN-NA- AAN l'ct " HUI O4htI dSSuUlhu lH6 little the applicant knew about the val ue of the chain that he must have stolen it. nominal loan of few dollars was made, for the value of the chain would have warranted an ad- vance of more than $100. The police were notified. The man brought more 1 Jewelry, and, under instructions from the police, other small sums were ad- Vanced to him. Within a month he brought seven pieces of jewelry worth | thousands of dollars. He was ad- Vanced a total loan of about s1OO. The
 police finally took the man into GUS tody and he confessed to having stolen the jewelry from the home of Admiral ! Dewey. The admiral was surprised tC
 learn of the facts, as he was not ever aware that the jewelry was missing l The man was servant long in the employ of the admiral
 Not so very long ago, a Virginia
 pawnbroker advanced 5000 to a mar
 on three large diamond rings. Afte,
 making the loan, the pawnbroker be.
 came uneasy about the transaction
 and notified the Virginia police. Tht

nFrench Leave.U

This expression arose in the early
part of the eighteenth century through
certain guests, in the salons of France,
not aware of the higher acts of cour-
tesy, leaving without saying good-by
to the host or hostess. The practice
spread to society in this country.
Therefore, If man left without say
ing good-by to his host, 1t was said he
took "French leave"
