"While New York Sleeps" Begins Ran
At Orpheum Theater

The press agent who has announced
"While New York Sleeps" an eight
reel Fox Special, which begins its
run at the Orpheum theater Wednes-
day of next week as the "most sensa-
tional and artistic melodrama Of all
time" does not realize how close he
has really come to the mark. In fact,
this writer cannot find it in his heart
Tor his experience) to disagree with
him.
Night life in New York among the
several strata of society in that cosmo-
politan city is pictured with wondrous
fidelity in the three acts or episodes
which compose the picture. The play
abounds with spectacular Incidents and
yet the thing that remains in the men,
ory after seeing "While New York
Sleeps" is the almost intolerable sus-
pense with which Director Charles J.
Brabin has succeeded in endowing his
great picture.
Some magnificent views Of the
bright spots along The Great White
Way have been used in the picture.
For instance there is dancing number
from Florenz Ziegfeld's popular Mid
night Frolic girl-and-music show, to-
gether with gorgeous carbaret scenes
from the Cafe Palais Royal.
Then the action plunges over to the
East Side where we see tragedy in
the lives of tempestuous shop girl,
her puny, gentle-hearted husband
whom she ,despises, the sanity, par
alytic father of the man, and the
gangster leader of band Of thieves.
In this episode occurs thrilling re-
volver battle between the famous New
York police boat and launch full of
desperadoes.
In addition to the remarkable tensity
Of the three stories and the interest in
connection with the spectacular fea-
lures that the director has introduc-
ed into the picture are the splendid
characterizations effected by the small
but eminent cast of players who por-
tray the principal parts. Seldom if
ever in the history Of the screen has
any group Of players acquitted them
selves so admirably.
The cast is composed of Estelle
Taylor, one of the most beautiful and
capable of the younger actresses of the
screen today; Marc MacDermott, who
has for many years enriched the
screen with his ability; Harry Soth-
ern, nephew of f. H. Sothern, William
Locke and Earl Metcalfe, star in his
own right.
"While New York Sleeps" is pic
ture that no devotee Of better art on
the silver sheet can afford to miss.
1t will remain at the Orpheum theater
four days.

HELPING THE HOLY FATHER.

On Pentecost Sunday in prac-
tically all the churches Of the
country special offerings are gath
cred to be forwarded to the Holy
Father. These tokens Of loyalty
come from rich and poor and
they are presented to the SUI
preme Pontiff to be used in his
worldwide charities. AS father
Of the faithful everywhere his
children of all nations appeal to
him in their distress. Abandoned
missions in odd corners of the
earth look to Rome for the pit
lance that means life as we'll as
conversions and maintenance of
the works Of God. Suffering in
the most acute form has invaded
many countries, and the Father
of Christendom yearns to assist
all need and want alone are the
passports to his charity and
benefcence.
For several centuries Papal
bounty was lavished upon our
own land. Today, thank God, we
enjoy prosperity above that of
any other people. With in
creased resources, however, there
comes an added responsibility to
heed the cries Of misery from
others. For this reason the Cath
olics of America are expected to
contribute of their abundance
this year, not simply in a per-.
functory way, but with an eye on
the ruin and destruction that
have overwhelmed so many Of our
co-religionists.
Your offering, however large or
small, will add not single lux
ury in the life of the Holy
Father; every dollar will at once
hasten on its way from his pa
ternal hands to the haunts of
hunger and despair. Europe
helped us in our poverty and she
will do so again should the need
arise. 1t is our duty today to
give proof of the genuine charity
that animates us, and to send our
donation through the channels of
Christian brotherhood that it
may reach the lands Of naked
ness, hunger and cold.

FEAST OF MANY TONGUES.

: Nearly two thousand years ago
the Roman empire was at the
height of it's glory. A powerful
monarch on. the banks of the
Tiber received homage from every
nation on earth; they all were but
provinces Of that vast dominion.
Government enterprises on an ex-
tensive scale were discussed. and
put into motion. Political leaders
doomed large in the world s eye.
Men. of wealth, of power and of
every degree of eminence planned
and schemed, even as they have
done in every other age. The
rounded periods of. Cicero, the
stately epics and lyric charm of
Virgil, the keen witticisms of the
jester, Horace, were still fresh in
the minds of men.
At a moment when the eyes Of
the world were far from the mar
row strip Of land on the west
coast of the Mediterranean, in
that very land of Palestine, in it's
capital city, was taking place a
scene that was to revolutionize
the human race.
But a short time before the
Manhood from Nazareth - de-
spised hamlet Of the hated Judea
had closed His mortal career,
had wrought His last miracle
among His followers, and had, in
the sight of all, gradually disap-
peared into heaven. His little
bodyguard Of Apostles in fear had
HE'D themselves to a. secluded
room and there awaited they

Suddenly an unwonted thing
happened to these men already
Injured to the unwonted and UNI
usual. A roar as of terrible
hurricane shook the house where
they lay concealed. Tongues of
fire appeared over their heads,
and their whole being thrilled
with a divine impulse. The spirit
[of God was upon them. Courage
and Sintrepiditys surged Through
their hitherto frightened souls.
Fearless they went forth and gave
Futterance to the inspiration taht
suffused their mental vision. Al

We all know individual Masons
among our friends who are as
broad and tolerant in their views
as we could expect any non-Cath-
Ollie to be, but their leaders as
exemplified by the various Ma
sonic publications are decidedly
un-American in their attacks on
the Catholic Church. 1t is refresh
ing and surprising therefore to
find the following in "The Square
and Compass, +" the official monthly
of the Masons in Denver. 1 eve
believe in giving honor to whom
honor is due. The Roman Catho-
lie Church has preached from the
pulpit, in season and out of sea-
son, against the indecent exposure
of the womanly form in public.
1t has taught the blessings OF
child-bearing and exalted blessed
motherhood. 1t has insisted upon
chastity and confluence, and has
been foremost prOponent of
personal purity. In all these
things it is greatly to be COM

have more interesting history than
that for which the Right Rev. Joseph
P. Lynch, Bishop of Dallas, dedicated
a little church near the town of Glade
water Texas, last Sunday.
Catholicity came to Gladewater
through the attacks made on the
Church by a eircuit-riding preacher
who awoke in the heart of young
nonCathofic school teacher a desire
to know something more about the in
stitution which she heard SO violently
denounced.
That was almost twenty-five years
ago. Today the teacher is Mrs. John
Follwell, and, due to the zeal and
courage with which she practiced the
religion which she embraced after a
thorough personal study, there is
gathered around her community of
nearly fifty souls that has been able
to build its own church.
Following the attacks of the timer
ate preacher, Mrs. Follwell, then the
school mistress of a community that
did not boast single Catholic, wrote
to Catholic publishing house and
secured copies of "The Faith of Our
Fathers" and other works explana-
tory of the faith. She was deeply i'm
pressed. She studied the catechism
and read up on church history. One
Saturday evening she presented her.
self at the nearest parochial resi-
dence and asked if she might he re-
ceived into the Church and make her
first communion the following day.
Examination proved that she had
grasped "a knowledge of the faith and
the sacraments sufficient to permit of
her wish being granted and she went
back to Gladewater satisfied in soul.
In twenty-five years one Catholic
came into the district. That was John
O'Bryne, who married Mrs. Folwells
sister and now heads devoted Cath
Ollie family. The school teacher,
meanwhile, had married and her hus-
band became a Catholic. With these
two families as nucleus there de-
veloped a real Catholic sentiment
which has grown until the parish is
now able to maintain the church that
was dedicated by Bishop Lynch last
Sunday. The church is a gift of
Catholic of the northeast, through the
Catholic Church Extension Society,
and is named in honor of st. Bridget.

ready were they carrying out the
command to preach the Gospel to
every creature. Difficulties of
speech vanished as they poured
forth the message of divine love,
and men of every race and tongue
readily understood them, each in
his own language.
Thus was the Gospel launched
by a few rude, illiterate men. In
this way did the ineffable Christ
choose again to confound the wis
dom Of earth. The moral trans
formation of the trembling
Apostles was complete. With
minds clarified and hearts beating
high courage, they swept aside all
restraint and, like the angels at
Bethlehem, brought to men the
glad tidings Of salvation.
,Pentecost is the great feast of
tongues. 1t is the day from which
each Of us may date the beginning
Of our conversion, the first link, so
to say, with the Church of God.
On this day gratitude should fill a
larger part of our thoughts, a re
solve to live worthy of the un-
speakable boon vouchsafed us
should take on fresh strength and
serious determination.

INTERESTING TO KNOW.

1t would be interesting to know:
just how many persons are kept
out OF the Catholic Church
through the bad example of So
called Catholics; how many are
encouraged to sneer at religion by
reason Of the actions Of those who
should lead;
The amount of damage done to
the CHURCH through the want of
energy and courage ON the part of
the Catholic laity to defend her
interests; also the, harm that
comes to religion through human,
respect on the part of Catholics;
How many sins are committed
as result Of the scandalous styles
INDUCED in by so many women
who claim to be Catholics, but
who do their best to prove their
alliance and identity with the I'M
fortunates of the neither world;
How much certain prominent
Catholics really gain by putting
the soft pedal on their religious
convictions, lest they run the risk
of FORGETTING social or financial
prestige;
How many converts might be
made were the clergy to address
frequent gatherings of non-believ-
ers wherever propriety will per-
nit, as was done in the Middle
Ages and as priests do in England
today; go"
just why Catholics persist in
ignoring their press and the inter-
ests Of their Church, when they
would be thoroughly 't'peeved"
did they fail to get the latest news
in the world of society, sports,
literature or finance;
Why so-called Catholics will
ally themselves with socialistic or
CARNATIONS that in whole or in
part are sworn enemies Of the
Catholic Church;
just how SO many people get
by" without ever raising hand
to drop a coin in aid of religion.
Many other things one might
inquire about; but surely would it
be intensely interesting to know
just how little good we actually
do and how much harm we cause );
how far personal ambition and
mental cussedness spoil that little
good; and how widespread is the
evil that flows through the chan
nels Of religion due to our reckless
mode Of acting in regard to the
love we owe our neighbor.

LOST ART RECOVERED
MIDDLE AGES ART OF MAKING
STAINED GLASS RE-DiscovER-
ED-FAMoUS ROSE WINDOW OF
RHEIMS CATHEDRAL CAN BE
RESTORED.

M Louis Vauxcelles, an art critic,
asserts that M. Richard Burgsthal, a
glass manufacturer from the vicinity
of Paris, after long research, has
found the secret of. the stained glass
windows which has been lost. since
the Middle Ages.
In the thirteenth century, the win
dows were made of. glass of different
colors, glass colored in the mass,
either entirely blue, entirely yellow,
or entirely violet, etc. The windows,
now shattered, of the Cathedral of
Rheims were made in this manner.
But during the fifteenth and sixteenth
centuries nothing was used but white
glass, stained on the surface. In
short, painted glass replaced the glass
mosaics.
The original methods of manufac-
ture were forgotten. then definitely
lost. For long time chemists and
glass manufacturers sought in vain for
the secrets of the glass workers of
Charities.
In glass factory of the Ile-de-
France, M. BurgSthal undertook to
manufacture glass similar to that of
the medieval masters, employing mod
ern methods. He operated with tenn
peratures from 1900 to 1900 degrees
centigrade. In April, 1913, he had
found the Charities Blues" BY July

the armistice he again took up his
Investigations and experiments and

ing that NJ Burgsthal declares himself
capable of9sreconstituting the great

LIE Mars, Ia, is now definitely Of
fered the opportunity to build and
equip modern seventy-bed hospital,
not to exceed 100000 in cost, under
terms and plans which were an
nounced after conference held last
week.
Mother Dominica of St. Francis
Convent of Dubuque made the follow
ing offer: That their order would
give dollar for every dollar the COM
munity gave, not to exceed $150,000.
That after the hospital is built no
further assistance would be asked
from the community to keep the hospi-
tai running; that any surplus earned
in excess of current expenses would
be expended there in the upkeep, and
the betterment of the service, and
that no worthy case would ever be
turned away because of the lack of
means.
The offer was accepted not only as a
vision of charity, but as a supreme
opportunity for expansion in social
service and civic growth by the prac-
teal men present and because it is
to be Catholic in name only, in prac-
tice to know no church or creed. 81

THE TEST OF LOYALTY.

To every man there comes the
day when he is called upon to
give palpable proof Of his ale
glance to some good cause. Upon
his act on such an occasion will
he be judged from the standpoint
Of country, business or society.
No evasion is permitted, no dodg-
ing the issue will be tolerated
he must come out squarely and
attest his loyalty.
Sunday, May %, is the day set
this year for every Catholic to
give evidence as to his religious
belief. Trinity Sunday marks the
line between the patriot and the
Stacker. No amount Of explain
ing will avail the delinquent one
he must on that day prove his
Catholicity by receiving, or Civ
ing evidence Of having received,
the sacraments during the paschal
season. Such is the law Of the
Church to which he belongs. She
has made this precept clear to
all; she has facilitated obedience
by extending the period for about
a hundred days. He who fails to
meet this easy test will protest in
vain; he automatically becomes a

Authorities of the Evangelical
Church of Germany, in an effort to
stop assertions from it's membership
have in many instances adopted Cath.

The High Church Union" of the
Evangelical clergy-so often brought
to public notice since 191S-frankly
expresses the belief that the saliva
ton of the present generation lies in
return to the externals of the Cath
Ollie cult
Quite recently several prominent
Protestants have declared in favor of
introducing in the Evangelical Church
a liturgy similar to that of the Cath
Ollie Church. They have been brought
to this view, apparently, by a super
fetal survey of the situation and a
hasty quest for the causes of the de-
lection from their ranks. In general,
they claim that the religious services
and liturgy appeal to the esthetic and
emotional tastes of the people far
more readily and effectively than do
the severe forms of worship in vogue
in the Evangelical Church, and they
attribute the Catholic Church's hold
upon the faithful in part to the devo-
ton to the Blessed Virgin and the
Saints.
julius Smend, professor of eyangel-
ical theology at the University of
Muenster, in his book, "The Roman
Mass" contends that too little i'm
portance has hitherto been attached
to the charm of the Catholic religious
service. That attitude, he says, has
undergone change. Professor
Smend believes that even the most
conservative Evangelical circles will
be won to his viewpoint.
