RESOLUTION OF RESPECT

To the Worshipful Master, Wardens and Brethren of Newark Lodge No. PAS, F. < A. M.
 We, your committee ap- pointed to draft proper resolu, tions of respect in memory ot Brother B. F. Adams, beg leave to report as follows:
 Whereas, 1t has pleased the Grand Architect of the Uni verse to call from labor to re- freshment our dearly beloved Brother B. H. Adams, who de- parted this life, September 19, 1920, and who had been a faithful member of this order for many years.
 Therefore, be it resolved, that we humbly bow to the will of Him who doeth all things we'll and that while our hearts go out in sympathy for the bereaved relatives and friends of the deceased, yet we are mindful of the fact that the Angel of Death is but waiting at the outer porals for us all.
 Be it further resolved that we extend our sympathy to the family and many friends of Brother Adams and to them we suggest the emulation of his life and character.
 Be it further resolved, that in the death of Brother Adams Newark Lodge loses one of its oldest and most esteemed members; his church a consis- tent christian character, his family a kind and loving hus- band and father and the com- munity a good neighbor and llSafl1l citizen.
 Resolved further, that these resolutions be spread upon the record, a copy furnished the family of the deceased and a copy to The Newark Jour- nal for publication.
 Respectfully submitted,
 John Austin,
 4. J. McSpadden,
 H. V. Williams,
 Committee.

Brief Reviews and Notices

Leaves on the Wind. By Rev D. A
Casey. Published by McClelland
Stewart, Toronto, Canada. Price
1925.
Of writer's of verse there seems to
be no. end. Poets are all too rare
For this reason it is pleasure to
take up a volume like this latest one
from the pen of the editor poet, Faith
er Casey. In these days of material
hustle and striving after wealth one
loves to turn aside from time to time
and enjoy the things of the mind, the
lyric beauties of Nature sketched by
def hand.
This volume contains a gOodly num-
Der Of poems on variety Of subiects
it wanders through a wide field 1t is
when the author strikes the harp and
evokes the love and tears of Erin that
he is at his best Poems that will
live long after the writer are Home
sick, The Sermon Explained, and
Passing By. In the first Of these the
sorroWing exile thus voices his lament
over the ways of strange people:
Sure their talk is all of money
To an Irishman it's funny
That they never seem to think of
God at ALL
They've no time to ask a blessin'-
Fax it's sthrange must be the lesson
That their cruel masthers teach
thin Whin they're small.

AN IRISH BISHOP
MGR. KELLY OF ROSS DENOUNC-
ES WORKERS. REPUBLIC AS So
ClALlsTIC MOVEMENT IN IRE
LAND

The Bishop of Ross, Mgr Kelly,
speaking at a meeting in Dublin Of the
council of agriculture, said that the
council should consider whether the
political movement now going on
would improve the government of Ire
land, or whether it was not drifting
into social revolution.
'"The workers." Bishop Kelly said
propose to take over all the sources
of production in the country, to work
and manage them, and to run the
government. This is the denial OF
democracy. The tyranny of an oil
garchy is bad; the tyranny of a
sources of production is not legiti-
mate. The possessOrs and owners will
resist and there will be fierce strug-
gle. There are in, Ireland 100000
families: of these $4,000 are occu-
piers of land All of them have a
substantial interest in their land, and
most of them are owners in fee.
More than 100000 of these families
are farmers who derive their subsis-
tence from their farms.
Among the $4,000 families who
have no landed interest are included
the large array of owners of houses,
shops, workshops, factories and vari-
GUS other forms of property. Hence
in Ireland there is little room for a
social revolution. AS we know the
Irishman, he will cling with a grim
determination to his farm, shop and
workshop. ForeWarned is forearmed,
and if the owners realize that the
program of the workers republic is
to abolish individual ownership, and
if they set their faces firmly against
that change, they will avert great
evils from themselves and their cour.

Was there ever st, Estelle?

According to Migne's MartyrOlogy,
ST. Estella, also called Eustella, was a
virgin martyr of Saintes, in France. A
princess by birth she was converted
and baptized by St. EutrOpus, the first
lis died q martyr, she gave his body
an honorable burial. BY this act she
became known as a Christian. Her
father used all means at his disposal
to induce her to return to organism.
When he did not succeed he handed
her over to the pagan prosecutors, who,
after many cruel torrents, put her to
death towards the end Of the third cen
fury. She is venerated on April 80.
