Trash VS.. Truth

A cheap seeker of notoriety and
money waits for President of the
United States to die and writes scan-
dalous lies about him, interviewer
with fiction trash.
Such writer's rarely have the cour-
age to publish such libels during the
life of their subject, but hope they
will be believed because death pre-
vents personal verbal defense.
America has some of the worlds
best writer's, and, thank God, it is
only an occasional seeker of cheap
notoriety who stoops so low.
AS that fine character of a man,
Patrick Cardinal Hayes, archbishop
of the New York diocese, once said to
me: God will bless those who do
kind acts and speak kindly of their
neighbors.' -

libelers know of God?

business would occupy the attractive
stores on the ground floor. 1t is a
pleasure to announce that the south
east corner store is leased to Mr.. and
Mrs. r. M. Gassman. Mrs. M. Leon
ard, Mrs. Gassman's sister, will be
in charge of this little place, which
promises TO be more alluring in at
tractiveness than the original shop
farther up the street, with which it
will be partner. In harmony with
the scheme of decoration of the hotel
proper, its interior decorating will be
in soft tones of tan and grey in tif-
fany finish Fixtures will be mostly
of the built-in variety. A large light
er showcase with French doors will
be framed by the main shop door
way into the hotel lobby whence
many exclusive and attractive OBJ
jects will show to advantage.
