A REAL FIRING LINE
MARYkNolL PRIESTS IN CHINA
ACT AS MEDlAToRs IN CIVIL
WAR-GET SAMPLE OF DOUBLE
CROSS" FROM GENERAL,

Recent letters received from Mary
Knoll priests in China show that the
American missioners are having u hot
time of it preaching the Gospel in a
pagan land and acting as interme-
diaries in a widespread civil war be-
tween times. Many of them have been
repeatedly under fire. Fathers Never
and OShea have gone between the
lines to arrange a truce that saved
the lives of three companies of SOL
dlers trapped in the town of Kochow.
The mission compound of Kochow has
been looted twice by conquering ar
mics within the past six months. Even
the chapel was not spared in the last
raid and the Blessed Sacrament would
nave been profaned had not the mis-.
sionaries consumed the Sacred Species
as the invading army approached
After Fathers Meyer and O'Shea
risked their lives to arrange a truce
when the Cantonese General Foo was
cut off with three companies of SOL
diers by large Kwang 81 army in
kochow, they were made to feel the
DrGnt OF pagan ethics General Foo,
realizing that re-enforcements were
coming to his aid, changed his mind
about wanting to surrender, thus maxi
ing the missionaries party to his
"stalling for time" until aid arrived.
But the re-enforcements arrived too
late. The Kwang ST army had re.
opened fire and carried the city. The
Cantonese soldiers and their leader
would have been massacred by the en-
ragged besiegers had not the Mary.
knollers again interfered and disarmed
the captives before their captors
forced their entrance to the mission
compound, where the Cantonese sought
refuge. That the loss of life was al
most negligible instead of appalling
was due to the repeated acts of BRAY
cry on the part of the Americans.
whose heroism stood in bold contrast
to the cowardice of the Chinese Off
GERS and soldiers when they saw that
they were trapped The mfssioners'
reward was the spoliation of the COM
pound they have built up by hard la
Dor and at the cost of many sacrifices
on the part of friends of the missions
back home"

MEDICINE IN CHINA
MISSION DOCTORS WAR Ex-
FERENCE Is UsEFUL-MoDERN
SURGERY ADOPTED TO MISSION
AIRY ACTIVITIES IN CHINA.

DR.. Robert F. Francis, who is attach
Yang, China, and who is the first
American Catholic physician to go to
China as a medical missionary, was
called upon recently to give aid to q
number of Chinese soldiers who were
wounded in an attempted mutiny at
Wuchang. The following account
printed in a paper published in China
describes the occasion:
His two years experience with the
American troops during the war stood
we'll to DR.. Francis yesterday when a
number of soldiers wounded in the re-
cent Wuchang disturbance came from
the barracks nearby to st. Columban's
Mission Dispensary for treatment.
Though the wounds were two days
old, and especially those inflicted
by the bayonet, very severe, the doc.
tor with his modern methods dressed
them in such way that the officers
and men are not likely to forget the
Catholic dispensary in Han Yang"
The disturbance at Wuchang arose
when it was learned that division
of General Wang's troops was to be
disbanded and the soldiers rebelled
because they did not wish to go home
empty-handed. In the outbreak more
than fifty persons were killed and ii
is estimated that the value Of the
property destroyed was $25,000,0 900
On the following day the rebels were
attacked by loyal troops and many OF
them were killed. Fifteen hundred
were punished with death.
DR.. Francis is a native of South
Bend, Ind, and was graduated from
Notre Dame university.

What must do and what must !
know to join the Brotherhood of the
Society of the Divine Word?
The first thing to do is to confer
with your confessor whether or not
you really have vocation to join that
community. 1t is hardly question
that you can solve without proper adj
vice, and is certainly not one that a
total stranger like the writer can hope
to solve for you. Your confessor will
be able to judge whether or not you
possess those physical, intellectual,
and moral qualities necessary for en-
trance into a religious order. He will
also be the proper person to advise
you in the matter of your home OBJ
legations. When a young man is nee
essary for the support of his moth
er, he is not justified in leaving home
and entering religion. In fact, relig-
ious communities require as a condi-
ton for admission that the applicant
be free from such home obligations
You will be best advised as to the
particular requirements of the Society
of the Divine Word by applying in
writing to their house at Techny, III.

DRIVEN FROM PU[P|TS
GEORGIA. EDITOR AND PASTOR
ACCUSED OF WIFE DESERTiCN,
ENCOURAGEMENT AND FORGERY
PULPIT VILlFiER OF CATH
oLIcs is EXPELLED.

Lon Davis, pastor of the AcwOrth,
Ga, Baptist Church, who last April
started an anti-Catholic paper which
was recently expelled from his pulpit
by his congregation, pending the in
vestigaton of charges that he had
been formerly convicted in Decatur,
Wise County, Tex, of embeZZlement
and forgery, and had deserted his wife
and three children there. A woman,
not Davis wife, was connected with
his departure. The charges have been
aired at length in the Atlanta papers.
Davis lost caste with the fairmind-
ed members of his congregation when
he started his anti-Catholic paper.
Acworth, where the paper was pub
lished, is Sc miles northwest of
Atlanta, in the Northwest Georgia
Mission, where there are but 1853 Cath
olics in an area Of 1000 square miles.
A meeting of the Ku Klux Khan on
the steps of Davis church early in July
brought the exposure of his record,
and he was promptly expelled by the
deacons. He promised to make his
defense before the congregation July
IS, but when the members gathered
that evening they learned their pastor
had left town. Before departing he
stated he was going to Texas to bring
back proof of his innocence. In the
meantime his property is being attach
ed for debts.
The Catholic Laymen's Association
of Georgia reports. that Davis paper,
The Progress, was the only paper il
| Georgia, with the exception of the
Columbia Sentinel, edited by Senator
Thomas E. Watson, which was
| primarily anti-Catholic, and it was on
the verge of extinction from lack of
support even before the editors ex-
posure, and virtually from it's incep-
ton last April.

BELIEVE RAID Is
WOMAN'S REVENGE
Officers Raid MandiCh Home
for Drugs, Find Small Guam
tity of Whisky.

John Mandich, a Chaplin st. sa-
loon keeper. was arrested Wednes-
day night following a raid made on
his home at 1929 f. Wayne St. in
which a small quantity OF bonded
whisky was found concealed under
the stairs leading TO the basement in
the rear Of the house. He was re-
leased under $500 bond for his ap-
pearance in city court this morning.
The raid was conducted by both
federal and police officers.
The officers, apparently acting on
information given before the raid,
made a thorough search Of the
house evidently in quest Of opium,
morphine or other drugs. Crevices
in the floors, vases, picture frames
and other like objects were exam
ined but no drugs were TO be found.
That the raid was made as a re-
suit of a neighborhood quarrel was
the opinion of members Of the Man
dich family According TO state
ments made by his daughter, Edith,
a neighbor woman recently threat
ened to get even" following trouble
over the children. II is the charge
of the Mandich family that this
method was pursued in accomplish
ing that threat.
Mr.. Mandich was not at home
when the raid was conducted, but
he was ordered TO appear at police
headquarters, where he was placed
under arrest.
