IN STRANGE COMPANY
FIGURES OF SAINTS ADORN PROT
ESTANT CATHEDRAL PARA
PET IN NEW YORK.

Outstanding characters of nineteen
centuries of the Christian era, who
are deemed to have contributed most
to the worlds spiritual advance, are
represented in a parapet recently ded,
icated in New York in the Cathedral
Church of st. John the Divine, the
most noted Episcopal edifice in Amer
lea. Most of them are familiar figures
in Catholic Church history, many of
them being canonized.
In their order the nineteen charac-
ters are: ST. Paul, st. Justin Martyr,
Clement of Alexandria, st. Athanasius,
st. Augustine, st. Benedict of Nursia,
st. Gregory the Great, Charles Martel,
-Charlemagne, Alfred the Great, God
frey de Bouillon, St. Bernard, St.
Francis of Assist, John Wycliffe,
Christopher Columbus, Archbishop
Cranmer, William Shakespeare,
George Washington and Abraham Lin

The comment has been made that
the Catholic Church could we'll be
proud of it's sons thus honored among
the outstanding figures of Christiani-
ty in a Protestant house of worship.

OLD-T|ME CUSTOMS
ST. JOHNS DAY KEPT BY YOUTH
OF GERMANY.

st. Johns Day was celebrated by
the Catholic young people of Germany
this year in manner that brought
back to memory many of the ancient
traditions of this festival. All the
children look to see the sunset on
this day, when it is declared that st.
Johns bloody head is to be seen dane
ing round in the sun. In the Rhine
land, they gather flowers and throw
them upon the roof that no lightning
may do any harm to the houses. No
boy is allowed to climb or swim for
fear of the old tradition:
st. John will have dead man,
A climber or swimmer.
One of the old customs that has
been revived since the revolution is
that of making "St. Johns fire." which
is lighted by students and young men.
The custom goes back to the days of
paganism, when at the time of the
summer solstice, near which st. John S
Day falls, fires were made on the
tops of hills in the darkness of the
night.

JEWELS BECOME BREAD
RUSSIAN CHURCHES GIVING UP
TREASURES TO AID THE
STARVING. rs.

The American Relief Administration
has announced that the churches in
Russia are giving up their valuable
possessions in order to provide food
for the famine-stricken. Following
are extracts from the appeals to par
ishioners:
"On March 26, the Bishop of Nigni-
Novgorod Evdobim sent a letter to
the Pomgol with three ornamented
crosses. In this letter he express
ed the hope that not only every tenn
pie but every house of the Believing
will gladly come to the rescue of the
furnishing masses.
"The Bishop of Voronej made an ap.
peal in the name of the clergy to the
believers. He reported that he and
the pastors of all the churches of
Voronej beg their fiocks to give due
attention to the giving over of the
possessions of the Church, and said,
May the Lord grant that the church
es' silver, gold and jewels may soon
change into bread for the saving of
our brethren from the horrors of fam
ine.'
THE parishioners of the Toanno-
Bogoslovskaya church, upon receiving
this appeal, decided to offer at once
the precious things from their church
for the work of relieving the famish-
ing"

WHAT DO THEY MEAN?

During the past few weeks the
public press throughout the coun-
try has devoted columns to the ac-
tivities of the Ku Klux Khan.
This rejuvenated organization APP
parently has increased its num-
bers IN many parts Of the United
States. Taking on boldness from
strength, it seeks to disfranchise
many citizens of their rights with
regard to political preference and
the maintenance OF private
schools. 1t has drawn within It's
net many un-American elements
and, strange to say. not a few pub
lie officials in certain states are
said to belong to it's ranks. So
far has the Khan proceeded in it's
audacity that not infrequently we
read Of officers of the law who re
fuse to perform their duty when
the objects Of law violation are
members of the Khan.
In 1871, a congressional inves-
tigation was held in Washington
regarding the activities Of the
original Khan. The result, as all
know, was the Enforcement Act
which, backed by the military
power Of the Federal government,
soon broke up the un-American
society. What we do not know,
however, is the reason why some
time ago a similar federal inves-
tigation in Washington of the
present Khan suddenly was dis
solved. No explanation was forth
coming of this strange ending of
what promised to be a serious
probe. Was it fear or bribery that
caused the abrupt termination ?
No answer is given, and one is
free to surmise what he will.
Americans are known the world
over as a bold, fearless. square
minded people; open and without
deceit in all their dealings, they
succeed by what has been termed
"push." How do the Klansmen
measure up to this standard
Stealthily moving about in the
dark Of night, ashamed to face
the sun or their fellow country
men, relying on numbers to string
up some unfortunate devil, hood
ed, nightied and benighted, sure
ly do they present a picture OF
courage born Of high ideals. They
are not Americans as the world
knows us; plain Bolsheviks and
anarchists, masquerading under
the false colors Of so-called pa
triotism, they are the sworn enc
mics of that law and order which
they presume, without right or au.
thority, to uphold. Were Catho-
lies, Jews and Negroes to form a
similar organization and hand out
such "justice to those whom
they dislike, the cowardly Klans.
men would set up howl like the
wall Of a lost soul with it's tai
caught in the crack Of a door.

THE LITTLE CROCODILE.

Alice in Wonderland had many
things to wonder at. Not the
least Of these marvels was the gen.
tie little crocodile of the Nile.
She tells plaintively
How cheerfully he seems to grin,
How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little fishes in
With gently smiling jaws.
This seems to be more or less the
case with the spirit Of intolerance
that is ever active among civilized
peoples. Just now this gentle
crocodile is especially busy gath
ering in the little fishes. There is
no blue sky law against him or
his operations. Parturiunt
monies, enascitur ridiculus mus
the mountains in travail bring
forth funny-looking mouse
only in this case it is a voracious
crocodile. It's jaws are dripping
with the catch and it's stomach is
distended with the amount there
Of, for the fishes are many and
gullible.
Today, intolerance has spread
the net for all those who have a
grudge against the Catholic
Church. This is old stuff. The
Roman emperors tried it; so have
the malcontents of every age
The only effect was to arouse re-
sentiment that was bad for all par
ties concerned. 1t tended to dis
unite the people Of the country
where such an unwise and unjust
practice gained vogue. It brought
in a distrust that hurt the nation
al unity, and it served but to be.
get a feeling Of retaliation.
All in all, wherever intolerance
has prevailed, disturbance and
disruption have brought forth bit
terness and recrimination, with.
out the least beneficial result fol
those who attack their fellows
Truth, real or fancied, may be in.
tolerant of error; but it should not
resort to mendacity or violence.

THE ZIONIST PROBLEM
VATICAN NOT OPPOSED TO JEW
ISH PEOPLE-ATITUDE OF HOLY
SEE TOWARD PALESTINE OUT
LINED BY CARDINAL BOURNE.
(By N. C. w. C. News Service

Cardinal Bourne has rendered a
great patriotic and religious service,
both to his Church and to his nation,
by explaining the real attitude of the
Holy See towards the Palestine Man
date and the Power to whom that Man.
date is about to be committed.
There is misunderstanding of the
attitude Of the Vatican, the Cardinal
said at a. great public meeting in the
Lancashire city of Bolton. Cardinal
Bourne said that the Holy See has no
objection to the Mandate for Palestine
being given to the British government
But-the Cardinal went on-the
Holy See objects to the proposals in
the draft Mandate which would give
to the Zionists, that is, to the newly
imported Jewish population of the
Holy Land, privileged position over
those who belong to other races and
other religious beliefs.
Cardinal Bourne swept all humbug
and one-sided propaganda aside, by
stating the simple fact that the Holy
See is not, and never has been, op-
posed to the Jews as such The Holy
See has protected the Jews over and
over again. The protest of the Holy
See, which Cardinal Bourne himself
reiterated, has nothing to do with any
dislike. Of the Jewish people; and the
Cardinal made the assurance that if
the Holy See felt called upon to make

in the interests of the peace of the
world.
Meanwhile, all the Holy See has
asked for is some modification in the
terms of the Mandate; and as the
Mandate has not been finally passed
and approved by the League of Ma
tions, there. are grounds for hope.

WOMAN JUDGE DIES

One of England's few Catholic wom-
en- magistrates has died whilst on a
visit TO Galley Island, the home of
the Benedictine monks off the coast
of South Wales.
Miss Helena Augusta Hope, who
died in her Goth year, was for many
years a member of the City Council
at Bath, in the West of England, as
well as member of other local gov
eminent bodies. Being possessed OF
considerable private means, much OF
her income was devoted to social and
charitable works. When, under new
legislation, women were admitted to
civic Offices hitherto closed to them,
the long years of devoted work by
Miss Hope were recognized by her ap-
pointment as one of the first women
magistrates of her city.

poet. But then some also are
found who listen to a great organ
recital with the languor one feels
at the performance of a piano
tuner. Both classes may repre-
sent strong and virile minds; still,
they lose fruitful source Of en-
joyment through their want of ar
tistic perception.
Poetry has been the inspiration
of valiant deeds, from the time
the Spartans rushed into battle
under the influence Of the hymns
of Tyrtaeus down through the
ages of chivalry. Dead, indeed,
is that sense of beauty which
thrills not at the poetry of Mil
ton or Dante, which ignores the
appeal Of Racine, Schiller or
Whittier; which experiences no
reaction to the lines Of Poe, Byron
or Leopard; in a word, which
fails utterly to be impressed with
the sweep Of Shakespeare, Homer
or Virgil, or to be delighted with
the subtle touch of a Horace.
Such a mind closes the door to the
sunshine Of the ages; it revels in
brick and mortar, in politics, bat
ties and intrigue; but it is depriv-
ed Of a solace, regeneration, a
mental inauguration that comes
through the channel of uplifting,
purifying beauty to be found in
the best poetry.

MIRACLES HAVE NOT CEAS-
ED.

TO the agnostic, the nnbeliever
and the doubter, as to the posi-
bility of miracles, one has but to
point to the celebrated shrines Of
Christendom. Guadalupe, Lourdes
and Beaupre are but a few of the
high spots on earth where the di-
vine power is exercised in an I'M
usual manner from time to time.
Scattered throughout the Chris
tan world are sanctuaries of less
er note but of equal potency; isles
OF refuge, so to say, where the af-
ficted are received and nursed
and healed by the intervention Of
Almighty God.
One Of the most renowned of
these sacred spots is without
doubt the shrine of st. Anne de
Beaupre, near Quebec. Standing
there in the view of all for many
years, this goal of the sick and in
firm has witnessed hundreds of
broken bodies restored to perfect
health. Often, when medical sci
ence has declared certain cases alb
solutely outside the possibility of
complete cure, prayer at the
shrine of St. Anne has wrought
the change, sudden and unques-
tionable. Experts in the art of
medicine have declared the impo-
tency of human aid; the cure is
undeniable; whence the conclu-
sion that a higher power has eff
fected the change.
July 26 is the day dedicated to
the marvellous Saint, the mother
Of the incompatible Virgin and
the grandmother Of the Redeemer.
The intimacy of the affection eX-
listing between the valiant wom-
an, st. Anne, and her divine
Grandson has been demonstrated
times without number. Not every
favor vouchsafed through her in
tercession can be called miracu-
lous; but when all human means
fail, and the nature of the act and
the method of it's performance
and the person who is its object
all are found beyond the pale of
human effectiveness, then we call
that narticular act a miracle. TO
deny such occurrences or to at
tribute their efficacy to occult
sources, abstracting from the di-
vine power, is to confess either ig-
norance or malice. 1t does not re-
quire a genius to attest to the fact
that man with a broken leg has
suddenly been enabled to walk
Alright. Common sense and good
eyesight are quite sufficient in
such a case.
