dent writes from Rome that on the
site where once Christians were Of
fered as the prey of wild beasts to
amuse the Roman populace in the
Roman coliseum where Caesar sacri-
ficed the faithful to satisfy pagan
lust, a Christian service has at last
been held. 1t was celebrated recent
ly in memory of the Boy Scouts of
the Italian army who had done mes
senger service at the front and were
killed in action. The immense ruin
of pagan days was filled with people.
Detachments of Boy Scouts occupied
the central part of the building, a
place in pagan days used for the
arena The scouts were decked in
their uniforms and carried rifles in
stead of the sword and spear of the
ancient Roman gladiator. After the
mass Monsignor Bartolomasi de-
livered stirring sermon in which
he drew attention to the change in
human thought which was able to
convert this pagan amphitheater in
to Christian temple.
