Ryner versed in Hitting


 Some time back John B. Rob- inson, the local basebaIlist told Boss Moley wonderful tale about wonderful youngster who had wonderful physique and could hit wonderful line drives. Moley had heard that line of chatter before from various and sundry would-be experts, who sought to tout young phenoms of the lots. Still, Moley knew that John B. had pastimed consider ably, had managed a number of ball clubs and should be capable or Judging talent. Hence, he turned his good ear towards John B.. argument and sent on and got the youngster in question. This young man is L. R. Rymer and he halls from Fort Pierce, Fla.
 And. now Moley isn't a bit sorry that he listened to John B. Of course the spring training season is young-only three days old-and fMoley couldn't possibly have seen a great deal of lthe work of his rockies, but the Baron Chief and the raiI-birds have seen enough of this Rymer to believe that he will develop into wonderful hitter.
 Rymer is rather hefty and bit slow of hoof, but when it comes to seeking spring pitching he is there 40 ways from taw. He lammed out four line drives for base hits in Wednesdays prae- tice encounter and gave Moley such an eyeful that the foxy Chieftain decided he would bear watching.
 Moley in commenting on Rymer said: "He can hit better than John Cochran. right now, be- lieve."
 And. that's saying a mouthful. for John Cochran's hitting was never in doubt when he was in peaf ssional baseball. It wac his inability to field that robbed him of berth in class A baseball.
 Hi.ing spring hitting is some thing in the nature of delivering knoek out blows while punching the lag, as the pitchers put little on the ball, but at that, Ryme- looks like good prospect from this vantage point.

As a result, when the rcoklc clans lined up for a prac- ttce anne Wednesday afternoon he sn led and sent Tooter Bran dor toi play second base.

SOCIALISTS ARE PLEASED
DIFFICULTIES OF AUSTRIAN
CATHOLICS DELIGHT MARxIsTs
-oPPosE CHURCH IN EVERY
POSSIBLE WAY.

The embarrassment w hich the
Church is experiencing in Austria at
present is cause of eXultation for
Socialism. Particularly in Central Eu.
rope is Socialism characterized by a
spirit of hostility and violence against
the Church, and it's aim is to over,
power Catholics and their religion.
What the Socialists have for their pur-
pose here is, in the first place, to COM
pei the Church to renounce the allow
ances paid by the state and to force
the ecclesiastical authorities to impose
on the Catholic people an obligatory
tax for the support of religion The
Socialists hope that such a tax would
have the effect of driving from
the Church especially the Socialist
working classes They are endeavor-
ing also to prevent the children of
these workers from being led back to
the Church by the clergy.
p Socialism Opposing Aid to Church.
Under the monarchy the Church re.
ceived measure of support from the
state, but since the war and the break
down of the old regime serious prob
lem has had to be faced. Socialism
growing stronger and more hostile, is
opposing every contribution made by
the state to the Church, going to the
length of contesting the obligations
| which the government assumed when
the ecclesiastical properties were con.
| fiscated.
| In spite of this Socialist attitude, al
lowances have been granted to the
clergy, but owing to the depreciation
| of Austrian money, the income of the
priests is very much less than it was
! before the war Without the assis
lance given by other Catholic coun
tries, and chiefly by American Catho
lies. the organized ministry in Austria
would have suffered a complete col
lapse long ago.

SCHOOL FOR NEGROES
NJ. c. w. c. TO START NATIONAL
INSTITUTION FOR COLORED
YOUTH.

General plans for the organization
and management of combined high
school and trade school for negroes
in Southern Maryland we're approved
by Most Rev. Michael j. Curley, Arch
bishop of Baltimore, at a meeting held
by the sponsors of the institution last
week in Washington. The school is to
be promoted by the National Council
of Catholic Men, and it is intended to
make it national rather than local
institution.
Southern Maryland has probably the
largest group of Catholic negroes in
the United States. Three counties have
approximately 5000 Catholic negroes
of total negro population of $4,000
This is about 10 per cent of all the
Catholic negroes in the United States

PLAIN SACtRDOS RATn
ENGLAND DISCOVERS MANY Evi.
DENcES OF VISIT OF NEW POPE.
(By N. c. w. C. News Service J

(By N. c. w. C. News Service.)
Fresh evidence of the several visits
to England of the present Pope is be-
ing disclosed.
Manchester knows the Holy Father
we'll. He was an honored and distin-
guished visitor to the University of
Oxford, and the famous Bodleian Lii
brary in the university city is so proud
of the fact that a Pope was at one
time among it's scholarly frequenters
that a special address of congratulate
ton is to be presented to His Holt
ness.
The London Library, which is re-
sort of scholars in search of special
material, is proud to boast that it's
bookshelves once had the privilege of
ministering to a Pope; whilst the Holy
Father himself sent special message
to the parishioners of the London sub
urban district of Isleworth through
their parish priest, telling them that
he we'll remembers visiting their
church.
Last of all, Westminster Cathedral
has also discovered that the Holy
Father said Mass in the cathedral. 1t
was when the Pope was staying in
London in 1914. A search of the sac.
risty registers shows that on June 8,
1914, the present Holy Father said
Mass there. His entry in the register
is: Sac, Achilles Ratti," to which is
added the name of his diocese, Milan.

THOUsAND-YEAR STUFF

What promises to be nationwide
struggle between certain factions of
Professionalism has had it's chief mani
festation if not it's origin in Boston
as result of the differences between
the adherents of "Millenarianism" and
the anti-millenialists. Some parties
to the controversy are predicting that
it viii lead to religious fanaticism and
persecution.
The battle is raging in all the Prot
estant congregations of New England.
1t is the subject of talk on the streets.
II is trumpeted in the daily press.
Only the Catholics are undisturbed by
this new vagary of the sects. OF
course, the Bible is summoned as the
witness for both sides.
sMilienarianism, or millenialism, is
nothing new under the sun Some of
the great doctors of the Catholic
Church discussed it. In the Middle
Ages, it seems to have been dropped
from mems memories. after having
occupied a good deal of attention. But
with the advent of Professionalism, it
got new lease of life. and has inter.
mttently stirred the minds OF the
seetat,ies from the time of the Anabap-
fists down to the men who are now
preaching and prophesying about it.

Is Gerald Catholic name?
Yes. There was saint Gerald,
bishop of Mayo. He was an English
monk. He died March Ii, 731.
Is 1t wrong for me to enter diff
ferent order of Sisters after had
promised chum that | would enter
the same one she had entered?
No, especially if you much prefer to
enter the other one. Besides, it seems
that you are better able to make your
choice now that you have become of
age.
Will you kindly inform me as to
the origin Of the Way Of the Cross?
1t is related that the Blessed Moth
er of God was accustomed to walk
in the steps of her Son to Calvary,
pausing at the places marked by some
special incident of His Passion. AS
one would expect, the pious Christians
of the early centuries who could do
so, made pilgrimages to Jerusalem to
visit the places made sacred by the
Suffering Savior, and gained numer-
Gus indulgences. But when, in the
Middle Ages, the Holy Land fell into
the hands of the infidels, and the de.
vout pilgrim could visit the scenes of
Our Lords Passion only at the risk of
his life. and then also in order that a
devotion to the Way of the Cross and
| it's indulgences might be accessible or
within the reach of all, the Holy Fa.
Their, Pope Innocent XII, in 1886, at
the request of the Franciscan Fathers
gave permission to erect stations in
their churches. And from that time
the devotion spread very rapidly, and
soon was practiced everywhere. To
day it is one of the most popular and
| fruitful exercises in the Church

MAY GO TO ENGLAND
Ex-EMPRESS ZiTA MAY MAKE
ISLE OF WIGHT HOME-ENG-
LAND HAS OFFERED ASYLUM
TO MANY Industrious CATH
OLICS.

According to statement which was
circulated in London this week, there
is a strong possibility that the Ex-Em-
press Zita, widow of the late Apostolic
King of Hungary, may make her home
in England, possibly in the Isle OF
Wight.
1t may not be the whole of the truth
but it is an undoubted fact that the
coming to England of the French
priests and Catholic members of the
French aristocracy at the time of the
French Revolution did, in some way,
help to break down the unreasonable
national prejudice against Catholics.
Perhaps the most influential of these
highly-placed Catholics who made
their homes in England when their
political career ended, was the late
Empress Eugene of the French. This
great lady not only supported in her
own house a Catholic establishment,
with her private chaplain, but she was
also the foundress of the great and in
fluential Benedictine Abbey of st.
Michael at Marlborough. It's Abbot,
Dom Fernad Cabrol, is one of the first
liturgical scholars of the day, and a
man whose opinions command the
highest respect in all learned circles.
The ex-king Manuel of Portugal, and
| his royal mother, the ex-Dowager
Queen Amelie, are two royal Catholic
personages who have made their home
| in England since the downfall of the
Portuguese monarchy, and who are
active in promoting all good works in
which Catholics have an interest.

VATICAN AND SOVIET
NO FOUNDATION FOR REPORTED
AGREEMENT WITH RUSSIA.

Reports from Genoa that the Vati-
can is negotiating treaty, or at least
a formal agreement, with the Soviet
Government through the Soviet repre-
sentatives attending the Genoa con-
ference, should be treated with great
reserve.
Undoubtedly, the Soviet Government
would be glad to make a treaty with
the Vatican, as such a step would be
a gaining of outside recognition of a
very powerful character, but that the
Vatican is equally we'll disposed to
come to direct terms with power
that has set itself so violently against
all forms of Christianity, without re-
ceiving trustworthy guarantees that
the Soviet persecution of religion shall
cease, is highly doubtful, to say the
least.

LAST PENAL LAW
FRANcIScANS MADE EXEMPT
FROM RATE LAW IN IRELAND.

Charitable and religious institutions
are exempt from taxes in Ireland.
There have, however, been some ex-
ceptions. The Franciscan community,
for example, was held not to be en-
titled to the benefit of the exemption.
The ground for this decision, given in
the British courts in Ireland, was that
according to one of the provisions of
the Penal Laws, unrepealed by the
Catholic Emancipation Act, the Fran
ciscans were outlaws.
In the town of Athlone the local
governing authority has now ex-
empted the Franciscan community as
charitable institution from all taxes.
Under this ruling the last remnant
of the penal code disappears.

MAY IL FOR CELEBRATION OF
Able sIcARD's CENTENNIAL.

The Government has appointed May

M. Strauss, will preside at the cele-
bration, and the French Academy, of
which Able Sicard was member, will
also be represented.
Able Sicard was born in 1742, near
Toulouse, and served first as a priest
in the Bordeaux district. His Arch
bishop, Mgr. Champion de Cfce, who
was anxious to found a house for the
education of deaf-mutes, sent him to
Paris to study the methods of the
Able de L'Epee. The Academy op-
ened competition for the appoint
ment of a successor to the Abbc de
L'Epee and Able Sicard was selected.
Great progress was made by him in
the difficult matter of the education of
these unfortunates. Able de L'Epee
had created the sign language which
enabled him to express intelligently
things pertaining to practical, every
day wants and things. But it was
considered impossible for deaf-mutes
to speak" of intellectual or abstract
things, as the translation of such
things into the sign language APP
peared uncomfortable. Able Sicard
undertook to make it possible. He sue
ceeded in creating the necessary
method, and thanks to him, the deaf
mutes are no longer prevented from
speaking of things of the mind
