PARK PLAYERS IN
MESSAGE FROM MARS :

New York boasts an unique Catho-
lie dramatic bryant izatiie51 in The Park
Players. who opened their season last
week with two presentations OF "A
Message from Mars, given for the
benefit of the st. Vincent de Paul So
sciety of st. Ignatius church. In many
respects the organization fulfills the
idea of the Catholic parish circuit. Its
aim is to provide dramatic entertain
ment for the parish that has no
organized dramatic club of it's own, pre-
senting plays at actual cost Of produc-
tion for the benefit of Catholic chart
table causes, thereby assuring high
standard of production at little ex-
pense. The Park Players are under,
the direction of Agnes O'Gara Ruggeri
and for several years past have been
appearing in parish halls, hotel ball.
rooms and public auditoriums. Miss
Ruggeri, who has been prominently
identified with Catholic parish ira-
matte club work here, was one Of the
speakers at the recent Conferences of
Catholic Dramatic Clubs held in Wash

RELIGIOUS SIDE OF ITALIAN
EcELEBRATfpN. N .#ss BIB VI

The marked religious Character Of
the Victory celebration. in the italian
capital has had a profound effect and
has created a most favorable impress
sion through Italy. All the Catholic
papers. particularly the Corriere d'Ital-
ia, have not only carried detailed re-
ports OF the celebration, but favorable
comments on the attitude of the King,
the Cabinet, the civil and military au-
thorities in emphasizing the religious
ceremonies as part of the national Gel
ebration. On the other hand, many
favorable comments have appeared in
the secular press on the permission
given by the Vatican for the church
bells to ring in unison with the bells
Of the civic buildings during the cere-
mony. The presence OF various rep
resentatives of the Popular Party In
the new Cabinet is taken as an. evi-
dence Of the absence OF any hostility
towards the Facisti on the part OF the
Catholics, while the attitude Of the
government toward the religious au-
thorities at the present time is cDnsid-
cred as greatly facilitating future rela-
tions> Another fact which has evoked
much favorable comment is the atti-
tude of dignity and reserve maintained
by the Catholic clergy and faithful
during recent events, In strict obedi-
enee to the wish expressed by Pope
Plus XI.

Addressing the venerable Jubilarian,
he said: You pressed theological
erudition, sacred eloauence, sterling
piety and apostolic zeal into your
work, being ever ready to tenderly
bind up the bruised reed of human diff
ficulties, tanning into fame the smDk-
ing flax OF broken resolution, and
pouring the oil and the wine of con-
ISOLATION, sympathy and encouragement
into the wounds of disappointment
and failure. Your II retreats to Dio-
