DIOCESE OF SIOUX FALLS

kimball: On Saturday, October 16,
the remains of Private VIM. P. Ryan
completed it's long journey from France
to Kimball, S. D. His body was i'm
mediately taken to the Catholic
church where it lay in state and where
it was reviewed by hundreds from this
and adjoining counties. The funeral
was held Monday at 10 A. NJ, and at
that hour, by order of the mayor, P.
V. LEM, business was suspended dur
ing the services and the city flag was
at half mast as a tribute of respect
to Private Ryan.
Promptly at 10 A. M. on Monday the
body was carried by the pallbearers
in uniform, to the entrance of the
church where the Catholic services be
gan Solemn High Mass was celebrat
ed by Rev. T. J. O'Gorman, the locaI
pastor, assisted by Rev. Austin Bon
ner of Reliance, S. D., as deacon, anC
Rev. James Kelley of Mount Vernon
S. D., as subdeacon. The funeral was
| under the auspices of the local Post
| and was attended by the largest crow(
of people, of all beliefs, ever as
sembled in the neighborhood The
sermon was preached by Rev. A. Bon
ner and was masterpiece of compo
sition and delivery. He eloquently re
called how the Catholic people o
America, whether in the councils o
peace, or the turmoil of war, hav
ever done their "bit" to help keep 'ol
Glory aloft, and he emphasized tina
patriotism for Catholic youths Xix

line of automobiles ever formed j

POPE NOT ARM|NG
REPORTS IN DAILY PRESS ABOUT
VATICAN GUARDS is ABSOLUTE
LY FALSE.
(By N. C. w. C. Special Cable. }

(By N. C. w. C. Special Cable.)
The Pope, as ever in all disturb
ances, Notwithstanding false reports
to the contrary, depends for protec-
ton upon Divine Providence, not on
machine guns. The statement, pub
lished in American newspapers, that
the Vatican was arming it's guard to
resist attacks of revolutionaries,
caused the utmost hilarity in Rome.
No one connected with the Vatican
ever dreamed of preparing for mill
tary defense of the Vatican; and no
such report was spread in Rome. The
new rifles for the Swiss Guard and
the posting of machine guns at stra-
tegic points, as described in this story,
existed only in the fancy of the writer.
The uniform of the Swiss Guard has
not been changed, and it's members
have never adopted steel helmets.
The only modification of it's uniform
was that adopted four years ago at
the initiative of Colonel Giulio Re-
pond, who, after historical studies, re-
stored the dress flags of the guard to
the fifteenth century models.
The Pope, although sometimes ques-
toned in private interviews as to
what should be done in the way of
provision against possible revolution,
never would authorize any extraordi-
nary arrangement to that end but has
replied that he would trust entirely
in Divine Providence.
In 1915, after Italy's entrance into
the world war, His Holiness received
official offers from the Spanish King
and bishops to go to Spain where the
Escurial Palace would be put at his
| disposal The Holy Father answered
expressing his gratitude, but declined
the offer. The Pope is now of the
same disposition.
It must be acknowledged that the
social connections in Italy, and especi
| ally in Rome, have no character Oh
any particular hostility against the
Vatican 1t is absolutely necessary
| to declare quite false the press report
| cabled to America from Rome on Sep
TENDER IL, announcing alarmist drill
ing and maneuvering in the Vatican
| It was evidently sent out in bad faith
