BIC VOTE POLLED
Rathdrlm Precinct Broke
Recent Previous Records.

Rathdrum precinct polled 434
rotes at the general election held
Tuesday. 1t was a larger vote
than has usually been cast in the
precinct for several years, due in
large measure to the fine weather
conditions that prevailed.
For various reasons, including
fitting up the vacant room at the
grade school building for teaching,
rendering the polling place used
two years ago unavailable, the
election was adjourned to the
Fraternal hall. After the polls
closed election returns from nation
and state were received at the hall
until late hour.
On account of having but one
set of talley books, the judges and
clerks of the election were occu
pied in the lodge room until nearly
? o'clock Wednesday morning
counting the votes.
Following was the vote cast in
Rathdrum precinct on the
candidates, the proposed state
bond issue and the proposed con-
stitutional amendments:

ADMIRAL BENSON
FORMER NAVAL CHIEF TO LEG.
TUNE AT NOTRE DAME.

Throughout the entire war Admiral
Benson served as chief of naval oper-
ations, and after the armistice he rep
resented the American navy at the
treaty of peace conference in France.
During his AZ years of active service
in the navy he travelled to all parts of
the world and made special study of
commercial conditions in South Amer
lea. Realizing that such travel and
study made him especially we'll quail
fed to talk on international law and
foreign commerce, the faculty at
Notre Dame Immediately after his re-
tirement few weeks ago, extended
to him an invitation to deliver Sc
ries of lectures at the university at
his earliest convenience. He accept
ed the invitation and will begin the
lectures at date soon to be set.
In March, 1917, Benson received the
Laetare Medal from Notre Dame, and
in June OF the same year he took part
in the diamond jubilee exercises. He
became chief of staff in 1915, and as
such continued until his retirement

WELFARE WORKERS TAXED
ALL x. Of c. WORKERS IN BRIT
isH ISLES CANVASSED FOR IN
COME TAx-SUBJECT TO Pc
CULIAR LAW

England is out to collect an income
tax from all the representatives of the
Knights of Columbus who served for
a period of six months or more in the
British Isles. The tax is sought un-
der a provision of the law that spe-
officially states that any persons tenn
pOrarily in Britain for six months and
more, despite the fact their sojourn
was only temporary, are liable to the
tax. The tax is levied upon salaries,
profits earned while in the British
Isles, and upon all remittances sent
to them from countries outside.
The income tax levy was discussed
the Knights of Columbus in Great
Britain. The surveyor of taxes is
out to collect from everyone of our
men who are liable under the six
months or more clause. Where the
total income is 100 pounds there is no
tax payable. Where the total income
amounts to 700 pounds the tax is paid
on $50 pounds Mr.. Sharp said that
notice of the liability of the welfare
workers who took care of British SOL
diers and sailors with the same care
full attention that was bestowed on
our own boys was served upon him
but recently. A great many of the
K. of G. men have long left the British
Isles, and there is very remote
chance that they will ever be able to
collect the tax from these men. He
also declared that all the men under
his command were subject to the
income tax while abroad.
Mr.. Sharp played host to General
Pershing in London, maintained the
extensive welfare work of the K. of
G. which embraced England, Scotland,
Ireland and Wales, and was the di-
recting genius who made the activities
of the order so popular among the
men of the American army and navy.

STATUE OF LAFAYETTE
TO BE PRESENTED BY x. OF C. TO
i. ANCIENT CITY OF METZ. IL


The statue of the Marquis de La
fayette. which the Knights of Column
bus will present to the city of Metz
next September, is now being ar
ranged for by Paul Bartlett, the
American sculptor, who has been COM
missioned to do the work. Every
member of the Knights of Columbus
in this country is contributing to the
fund for the gift Mr.. Bartlett is the
sculptor who executed the famous
Lafayette statue now in the Louvre.
This work was largely made possible
by the pennies and nickels of the
school children of the United States
many years ago.
No small number of the very same
children went to France in the dash
ing khaki uniform of the American
Expeditionary Force and, thus again,
acknowledged the faith and feeling of
america towards the sister Republic.
Many of them have made the supreme
sacrifice on the historic plains of Lor-
raine aaa .Alsace. y

MARSHAL PETA|N
FIDEL iTY TO FAITH A HIN
ORANGE TO PROMoTION-
STORY OF HIS COURAGE.

1t is we'll known that before the
war Marshal Petain had been denied
the promotion that was due to his
seniority and military abilities be-
cause of his fidelity to his faith. Per-
haps the following incident, which
has been related in one of the French
papers, will serve to illustrate that
fidelity to his religion and the sense
of honor towards his brother officers
which is in such fine contrast with
the campaign of spying and delation
carried on by the Masonic lodges on
behalf of the Ministry Of War against
those who put their belief in practice.
1t appears that one day Colonel
Petain, as he then was, received a
note from the ministry, stating that
several officers of his regiment were
attending Mass in uniform, a viola
ton of the regulations which could
not be tolerated, and requesting him
to communicate the names of the Off
GERS who were guilty Of it.
To this Colonel Petain sent the fol-
lowing crushing reply: General, it
is true that several officers of my
regiment attend Mass in uniform.
Amongst them is it's colonel. But
as he is always in a seat in front,
he does not know the names of those
who are behind him.-Petain."

STERLING CATHOLICS
PLAN CHURCH IN NEW YORK FOR
PERPETUAL ADORATiON

One OF the most eventfu meetings
in the history OF the Church in Amer.
lea was held in the Lexington theatel
last Sunday, January II, TO spread and
encourage devotion to the Blessed
Sacrament and petition the Arch
bishop of New York to obtain that the
Church of st. Jean Baptiste Of that
city be a national Basilica forever ded-
ioated to the perpetual worship OF
Christ in the Blessed Sacrament.
The movement was started by
Bourke Cochran and has been carried
on by the laity Of the Church. In
less than three days more than 120,-
600 signatures were obtained to a pc
tition which it was resolved to sub
nit to Archbishop Hayes. Governor
Smith will come from Albany to head
the committee that will present the
petition.
After the resolution was presented
to the meeting there was a general
discussion of the subject by the fol-
lowing speakers: Justice Daniel F.
Cohalan, Colonel Louis d. COnley, DR..
James J. Walsh, Edward Gavegan,
George Gillespie and Bourke Cochran.

OUR MARRIAGE LAWS
LOOSENESS OF LAWS IN THIS
COUNTRY ONE CAUSE OF PREV
sALENcE OF DlVoRCE-sTATEs
VARY ON SUBJECT.

From study of american Mar
riage Laws i'll their Social Aspects"
by Fred S. Hall and Elisabeth w.
Brooke (Russell Sage Foundation) it
is easy to realize the close relation
that exists between divorce and our
ill-advised variously administered
marriage laws. Common-law mar
riages, for example, are still recog-
nized in twenty-six States, and posi-
common-law marriage, which had it's
origin in the English commOn-law,
has been forbidden by English statute
for more than $50 years, notes the
Fortnightly Review.
Then there is the question of the
marriageable age-the age below
which persons may not marry. There
are still seventeen of our States where
no manageable ages have been fixed
by law and where, presumably, the
cOmmon-law ages are in fOrce-fOur-
teen for males and twelve for females.
The usual statutory ages are eighteen
and sixteen.
There is also the matter of what is
generally considered the necessary
barrier against hasty marriages, in the
requirement of notice of intention to
marry. Such a barrier exists in only
eight States, and even in them it
merely takes the form of a provision
that period of time, usually five
days, must elapse between the appli-
cation for a marriage license and it's
issuance.
Safeguards concerning the marriage
celebrant also are needed. Today in
Pennsylvania and in Vermont any one
who chooses may solemnize marriages.
From this extreme the statutory provi-
sions vary widely until the most ex-
plicit are reached in the eight States
that require all religious celebrants
to be licensed and registered. At pres
ent, but twenty States have compul-
sorry system of registration, yet it is
only through such compulsory filing OF
certificates that reliable marriage
statistics can be compiled.

THE PAST YEAR
WORST YEAR IN HUMAN HIS
TORY DECLARES POPE
BENEDICT.

"This is one of the worst years in
the history of humanity Pope Bene-
diet declared January 6, in an address
to a delegation of Roman nobility.
The clergy and nobility both did
their full share during the war, the
Pope said, the churchmen working in
hospitals and among refugees, while
the nobility fought in the field.
Our work is yet unfinished" the
Pope warned. The clergy must set
an example to others, supporting the
peoples virtues and opposing the
ideas which are undermining our in
stitutions
The nobility should fight eXtrava-
CANT and offensive fashions and de.
vote themselves to philanthropic
work.
The Pope's address was made at an
audience he granted the nobility.

SATURDAY NIGHT DANCES
GREEN cay PASTORS DENY THE
SACRAMENTS TO PARTlC-
IPANTS.

At Marinette, Wis, Rev. F. Tully
announced last Sunday morning, in
Our Lady of Lourdes Church. that
any Catholic attending dance on
Saturday night would be considered
as defying the laws of the Church
and would be denied the Sacramento.
The prohibition of Saturday night
dances in the diocese of Green Bay has
again been promulgated by Rt. Rev.
Bishop Rhode. A recent council of
the priests of the diocese after some
discussion decided that the ban
should remain.
1t has been in force for some years,
and resulted because of the character
of Saturday night affairs in many
country districts where the attend
ants danced until well into Sunday
morning. @--- ".,. ....-

A CHINESE CONVERT.
PROMINENT CHINESE GENTLE.
MAN GIVES REASONS FOR HIS
ADJ { r ENCE TO CATHOLIC
FAITH.

Mr.. Soun, IA delegate Of the Chinese
Church, which up to some years ago
he looked on as an enemy to his coun-
try. Mr. Soun. addressing the Man.
darins (civil rulers) Of Ningpo, told of
his conversion. Some Of his words
are thus translated:
Enlightened, and recognizing the
errors OF my past belief. it Is relief
to my conscience, gentlemen, to tell
you who are not Catholics, that / fully
realize how mistaken were my ideas.
And who knows but that some of you
share in that mistake and think as |
did? | now see that not only can one
be a Catholic and faithful Chinese
at the same time, but also that CathOl-
icism in China and throughout the
entire world is the basis of the pureSt
patriotism and the unfailng source Of
all the sacrifices it demands
'The war has confirmed my per-
sonal experiences. The great French
generals whose names are upon all
lips. these saviours of humanity and
in a special way of their own country
are-nearly all-practical Catholics.
Foch, the famous warrior and general
issimO, whose name will remain on
record, is sterling Catholic. ] do
not recall the names of the other
French generals, but / know, as | have
given the matter special attention,
that the greatest of all share Foch's
religious belief. The cause of this
may seem an enigma to you, but it is,
that without religious faith there is no
true disinterested love-a love unto
sacrifice-for ones country, and with
out it there is not patience in trial"
These words display an intelligence,
an interest in world affairs, and a
right viewpoint, that augur well for
the future of the Catholic faith when
it finds enough supporters to present
it adequately to the millions of the
vast Asiatic republic. Already the day
is dawning when American apostles
shall do their share in the great work
1t is rumored from Maryknoll, the
American Foreign Mission Seminary,
that this years group of Maryknoll
missioners for China will number at
least six.
