Are Ruth and Stella names

Are Ruth and Stella names OF
saints?
The name, Ruth, dates back to the
famous woman of that name in the
Old Testament. There is st. Stei-
la, a virgin of Marienberg, whose feast
is recalled July 10.
Can a Catholic man who belongs to
the odd.FelloWs remain Catholic and
receive the Sacraments? His family
of a wife and ten children would be
greatly in need of his insurance were
he to die.
Ordinarily speaking. a man cannot
be an Odd-Fellow and practical Cath
Ollie, for the simple reason that the
Church forbids membership OF her
children in that order. At the same
time, q decree isued in Rome In 1896,
allows a nominal membership in this
society if, in the judgment of the Apos-
tolic Delegate, these four conditions
are fulfilled: that the society was en-
tered. in good faith, that there be no
scandal, that grave temporal injury
would result from withdrawal and that
there be no danger of perversion. The
delegate in granting dispensatiOn
usually requires promise that the
person will not attend any meetings
or frequent the lodge rooms, that the
dues be sent in by mail or by third
party, and that in case of death the
society will have nothing to do with
the funeral.
Why do Catholics have corner.
stone laid in their churches and school
houses? Why is certain amount OF
money enclosed in the cornerstone?
The Scripture speaks of the cor.
nerstone of building as the point of
strength in the structure. This stone
is also blessed, thus dedicating the
building to God. A similar ceremony
frequently takes place in the erection
of public structures in general when
they are dedicated to some civic OF
national purpose. The custom of plac
ing the cornerstone of a church dates
from early times, and certain fixed
ritual of prayers and rites has beer
determined by the Church herself. As
to the contents of the cornerstone
this usually represents copies of i'm
portant documents, newspapers o.
other matter concerning the structure
One or several coins are sometimes en-
closed in the cornerstone, perhaps fol

the policy Of providing accommoda-

construction of new buildings.
The time to lay out Fairgrounds and
recreational centers is before the town
has grown to an extent that makes 1t
necessary to condemn property for
such purposes. Let there be a proper

Trees Public Property.

The pioneers planted forest or
shade trees when there was scarcely
an argument for their planting-when
they were hemmed in and surrounded
by virgin forest. writes G. f. Bley In
the American Forestry Magazine Of
Washington. Today we are enjoying
the fruits of their devotion, wisdom
and forethought. Shall we do less
when there is so much more need-for
the rising generations and for those
yet unborn? Not every h~usbandman
has appreciated the value of shade
trees, witness the ruthless cutting
down and making into cordwood of
whole lines of noble, stalwart sugar
naples! A legal enactment in every
state providing that every tree now
or hereafter standing within the legal
road boundary shall be considered
public property is suggested
