WANT TWO SECTs
SPLIT IN PROTESTANT CHURCH
OF POLAND Is FEARED BY
LUTHERANS..
(By n. c. w. c. News. service.l

(By n. C.. w. C. News Sefvice.}
Fear that the Protestant Church in
Poland will split into two distinct
sects was the dominant note of the
Congress of Polish Protestant Minis
tiers, which opened at Warsaw, August
Is. The majority of the Professionals
of Poland are Lutherans, and before
the war their strongest religious af-
filiatioas were naturally German. Dur
ing the war the efforts of Germany to
utilize these affiliations for political
purposes, and the submission of some
Protestant ministers in Poland to the
German influence, reused the national
spirit of the Polish Protestants to such
degree that complete divorce from
the sect in Germany was advocated
The Warsaw congress of ministers
was called to draw up q statute for
the Protestant Church in Poland
which will reconcile both the Polish
and German claims. The radical Pol
ish section. however. still demands
complete independence from Ger
many. They are opposed mainly by
the Professionals of western Poland, for
rnerly under German rule, where there
is a considerable German population
unwilling to give up its religious al
legiance to the Fatherland,

VOCATION FROM PRAYER
REMARKABLE INCIDENT OF AN
sWERED PETiTloN--cALL TO
PRIESTHOOD is CONFIRMED.

That tho late Monsignor Thomas s..
Lee, pastor of st. Matthew's Church,
Washington, for more than thirty
years, and a, priest for more than half
a century, owed his vocation to the
priesthood to the fulfillment of a vow
to the Blessed Virgin, Mary, was re-
vealed by Bishop Denis O'Connell, of
Richmond, Va, who attended the fu-
neral ceremonies.
Some years. ago" said Bishop
O'Connell, Il was in Rome with Mon
signor Lee, and ), we visited together
the Church of the Trinita de- Mont,
adjoining the. Convent of the Sacred
Heart. There is miraculous picture
in the, convent. painting of Mater
Admirabilis' The walls. on. either side
of the altar of the shrine are covered
with innumerable lex votos' placed
there by those to, whom the. Blessed
Virgin has granted special favors. /
noticed that .Monsignor Lee was deep
ly engrossed in studying these ex
votos. Finally he directed, my atten-
ton to, one of them, and said: a.ss

many years ago.. When sin Rome, as
a young man, my eyesight seemed to

"Monsignors Lee,R continued. Bishop
OConnell, seemed to be profoundly

Is it necessary when in the comics,
sional to state If you are married or
not?
Generally speaking, 1t is not neces-
sary. In particular case, however, if
the confessor thinks it necessary, this
fact should be explained. The reason
is clear; since marriage is contract

a double guilt inasmuch as they are

dred, which means second cousins. In
the case of first cousins there. exists
what is called the impediment of blood
relationship. 1t is possible, however
to have the impeachment dispensed
with by the bishop if sufficient reasons
are forthcoming. The Church dislikes
to dispense when there is question OF
first cousins, and some state laws for.
bid such a marriage. Practically
speaking, the matter should be sub
mitted to ones pastor who will take
the question up with the bishop.

Brief Reviews and Notices

cappy Kicks Retires. BY Peter B.
Kyne. Published by Cosmopolitan
Book Corporation. Price, $500.
1t is quite sufficient to announce a.
new book by Peter Kyne to insure a
treat for the readers of fiction Some
how the author of the Pride of Palo-
mar and other winners has the sure
grasp: plot, narrative, dialogue, style,
all are found converging to the most
interesting degree in Kyne story.
Genial Cappy is destined, no doubt,
long to live in the world of fiction. He
has the qualities that tell: brusque-
ness, shrewdness, human sympathy,
large ideas, unlimited nerve and
sporting blood in it's best sense. Add
to these the exuberant spirits that
ever are driving him forward to new
adventures and that furnish his assis-
tants with more than enough to do to
keep pace.
Cappy's retirement is quite COM
plicated and lengthy affair. The world
war becomes a fit setting for this gruff
old master of men, His patriotism
rises to the heights and, incidentally,
it involves him in some queer adven-
lures. The suspense is sustained
throughout the narrative. and one hur-
ries on to the solution of each diff

the unlooked-for outcome. Michael
Murphy and the chief engineer give a
rich and varied taste to the whole
story: in fact, without them Cappy
would be like a man without arms.

serves great credit for the splendid
line of novels it is sending forth in

When Stubby heard the hunters dogs barking he ran Into hollow log | Tn front of him, dragging the ducks l dlons. Alter depositlng them as far pack in the log as he could, he came 1 out and sat at the opening, prepared | 10 fght for them if the hunters dogs 1 tracked him that far He was com 1 ing to the conclusion that they had gwen up the chase when he saw a l dripping wet spaniel coming toward 1 hlf1' smiling as he ran. After having fouoWed the wet trail from the lake to the log and seeing Stubby there, the spaniel was sure that the bircs hal been stolen by this homely little dog satung before him. And he parked:
 Here, you mongrel, what did you do With those ducks you stole2 Hid them somewhere, I suppose, for you haven't had time to eat them. Hurry up and brin2, them to mel"
 But Stuhl, only sat still and blink ed at him. TElis made the spaniel an sry enough to fight. but he did not start 1t. as it is against the principles of spaniels to fight. On account of tf@ir long ears tlsey are at a great Advantage. for their ears are the first things for which their enemies grab. Stuhby knew this, so he quiet ly sat before the log and paid no no1%. attention to the spaniel than if he had never spoken.
 Of course, this made the spaniel more angry than ever and he ran around and parked and made a great fuss.
 The spanie1's master, hearing his dog barking in such an angry man. mer, hurried through the. woods to discover the cause. When he arrived, he saw only ar inoffensive yellow dog, instead of a ground-hog possum or some other animal as he had cXpect- ed.
 Why, Fruzzle- -Frrlzzle what do you mean by barking at that poor, lit tie, frightened dog, only half your size? Shame on you! Where is your master, you poor, little, forlorn dog or haven't you any?"
 But Stubby pretented he was afraid and ran into the log. His fear, how ever, was not for himself, as the hunter supposed, but he would not hudge and when one of the dogs braver than the rest, tried to make an he was glad enough to pull his head out gain and leave Stubby in full pos session, though he sme1t the blood of the ducks.
 Here, here, Come away and find those two ducks I shot, for I saw them drop near here into the klke," and the hunter called off his doss and went with them to try to find his game, but, as. you know he did not find them.

 That's a bout French ring fans hope to see while Featherweight Champion Johnny Kilbane is touring Europe It 1s the coHcensus of opinion abroad that Criqui is one of three or four men who can give the champ a real test. Many believe he Is the tough est bird in the group.
 Criqui is an interesting figure. His war record has added a picturesque anglet his history. 'Tis said that a shell tore away part of his jaw. de- stroying the nerve and rendering him immune from a knockout on that DOT tion of his body. This may or may not be true.
 The French lad Is rangy, light of limb, lasts and clever. His two de- feats since re-entering the ring after the war were registerde by Tommy Noble of England and Pal Moore It is said to his credit that Criqui fought Noble without sufficient training and entered the ring against Moore at short notice as substitute.
 Criqui has had many battles since the war-seven of them in Australia His most recent accomplishment was a one-round knockout victory over Ledoux, another brilliant European who tried his hand in the U. s.
