our Lady OF Good Voyage, with It's
equally picturesque congregation OF
fishermen. for the most part OF
Portuguese descent.
The fisher folk, many OF them In
very humble circumstances, brought
with them from Portugal and the
Azores. from where most OF them
came 10 this country, the customs
and ceremonies with which they
were familiar in the homes OF their
ancestors. Among the church In
stitutlons OF their native country
were the carlllions OF bells played
by a keyboard, which originated In
the low countries In the seventeenth
century and which were at that time
installed In churches. first OF all IN
Flanders, and soon afterwards In
Spain and Portugal.
The congregation OF the Church
of Our Lady OF Good Voyage want
ed a carlton, There was no expert
enced maker in this country and an
order was placed by the church au-
thorlties with an English firm to re-
produce carlton OF G5 bells with
keyboard attachment similar 20 one
in an old Flemish church.
The order was placed after the
purchase price, $40, 900 was raised
entirely by women OF the church. II
took close to eight years OF endeavor
to raise IT,. And then they were
faced with tho necessity OF paying
duty amounting 70 $4,000 to get tho
'arillons into this country.
But at this point congress stepned
INTO the breach. Inquiry disclosed

CLERGYMEN WILL
YIELD TREASURE
Priests Want Week to
Yield Up Church Treas
ures Buried in Seizures

MOSCOW. Now that The gov
ernment has taken for tho famine
tho church treasures which were
openly displayed, let us have n week
for voluntary surrendering the
treasures which the priests have
stolen ana hiddenw Such Is the
startling suggestion made by n
priest in the Tambov govercment
writing to the Tamhov Pravda.
During the swift changes u the
last five years in Russia many
groups which have fought the So
Wet government have later wished
TO come TO peace terms with q. SO
there has arisen n custom of grant
ing weeks of amnesty during which
the offenders might confess. turn
over a new leaf and be forgiven.
There was a week Of amnesty for
bandits and many bandits came in
from the wilds and became loyal
citizens. There was n week for the
voluntary return OF military de-
serters and many deserters seized
the chance to regain a legal exist
ence.
Priests Would "Rcpcnt."
let us have a week for the re-
pentance OF church bandits, also"
writes this priest. -Four years ago,
in 1918, when the government made
resignation OF all church prop
erty and declared 1t the property OF
the nation, Patriarch Tikhon or
dered the priests to conceal the best
of the treasures. These were hid
den In walls or buried. sun later,
this very year, when the govern
ment actually took the treasures 10
use them for the famine, many
precious things were taken by the
priests and hidden beyond reach OF
search.
But now there IS wave OF re-
nentance. We have seen how the
hungry were fed by the gold that
was taken. The lowest priests have
come into power in the church,
and the new church wants peace
with the government. But" writes
this Tambouv priest, the priestVI
who concealed treasures might like
to confess and hand the treasures
over and live on good terms here
after with a government which a.
last they recognize as permanent
But they are afraid Of the conse-
quences.
VIII Return Treasures.
'Let them. also, have a week for |
returning hidden treasures. II |
should give excellent results. with !
out this week the taking OF treasures I
cannot be considered as complete"
The Tambouv Pravda comments |
with cheerful cyniclsm on this |
priests letter. "No doubt he knows |
better than we, the treasures which |
such a week might yield Let us |
consider his suggestion and give /
these holy bandits also a chance to |
repent. But after this week let us /
have another week of careful check |
ing up to make sure they have really |
turned over everything. Woe TO |
hose then who do not use this |
opportunity"
