TALKS
OF DIVINITY OF
JESUS CHRIST
Rev. B. L. Conway Says
This Is the Foundation
Dogma of the Cath
oIiC Church.

What Think You OF Christ" wa:
the subject of the discourse deliv.
cred last night by the Rev. Bertrand
L. Conway, well-known Paulist
missionary of New York, at St. Ce-
celia cathedral.
The Rev. Mr.. Conway and the
Rev. John E. Burke, also of New
York, are delivering a series of lee
lures to explain the doctrines of the
Catholic church. The sermons are
intended for both Catholics and
Protestants, it was explained, and
intended for all seekers of the
truth and to answer in a kindly
manner all their difficulties"
Proof of Divinity.
Jesus Christ on the admission
of his bitterest enemies" the speak
er declared, was 4 true speaker. II
he spoke the truth, he himself gives
the surest proof OF his divinity.
Christ testified that he was the
Son Of God, equal in all things to
Jehovah, whom the Jews adored.
He allowed the claim to be defend
ed by his friends without denial
Christ appealed to the people to see
the works he wrought by his own
power as a proof of his divinity. As
an upright teacher. he could not
have acted in regard to his divinity
as he did unless he was divine"
Rev. Conway referred to the atti-
tude OF the Catholic church In regard
to Christ's divinity. This has been
the foundation dogma of the Catholic
church." declared the speaker, from
Peter, the apostle, to Plus X"
He called attention to the fact that
while Protestants frequently as
serted their unbelief in Christ's di-
vinity the Catholic church always
stood firm on the point.
Declaration to Jews.
"Christ is God for eternity. not as
two persons dwelling in one body,
but as one divine person." con.
tinued the minister.
"One Of the strongest proofs we
have in Christ's declaration to the
Jews when he said, Il and the
Father are one"
Rev. Conway addressed congrc-
cation in St. Cecelias cathedral yes

Divine Mission" He will speak to-

An amusing counterpart to this

for some time. There a little hump

afterward telephoned to his friend,
Herr Tape, a saddler. Here is the
conversation as recorded by the
Magdeburger Zeitung's "star re-
porter" who listened in on the wire:

Merges-Tomorrow, Heinrich, is
your chance. Would you like to be-
come chief of police?
Tappe-What? Me? Chief of po-
lice? Why, August, how could L?
What DO know ABOUT tile police

Merges-Oh, never mind, Helm

know anything about the presiden-
tial business. What do you say-is it
a go?'
Tappe-Well, if you think it's all
right, August-I'll try my hand at it.
Merges-All right-see me to-
morrow.
The aext day the good people of
Braunschweig saw by the morning
paper that the aristocratic police
chief, Van Dem Bussche, had "re-
signed" and that he had been sue
ceeded by Heinrich Tape.
