The proceedings were instituted by

Under the will of CaruSo, which was
executed in January, 1919, his brother,
two natural sons and the widow were
the beneficiarieS. After the Dlrtn OF

4 family councils decree was ratlfied
by Italian courts. This decree pro
yided that Gloria should be the bene-
hciary of one-half Of the 10 per cent
royalties from the records and the
remainder divided among the WIDOW,
two natural sons and bsothef.
Accordance of the accounting was
opposed by counsel for Gloria with
the claim that the birth OF Gloria
subsequent to execution of the will
made the document void and that all
the property rights of her father re
verted to the baby, subject to the
mothers rights.
The court gave permission for the
taking of depositions in South Amer

sires to show that the mother of

The air above Judea's plains
no longer pulsates with the wave
of celestial song. For SAD ana
weary centuries the grand march
of humanity upward has been
through strife and blood. But
growing echo of the heavenly mu-
sic is filling the hearts OF men
and the time will come the
blessed time will come, we pray
when the whole world, gives
back the, song
Which now the angels sing
But while we look with the
eve of faith. for the fulfillment OF
the angels song, how disappoint-
ing is the result. What have
men and women and nations, pro-
Tossing to be Christians, done to
bring about the desired result!
To use common expression,
they have been asleep at the
switch. They have fallen down
on the Job. The cruelest, blood
lest and most devastating wars
have been waged by them. No
wonder so called heather nations
refuse to accept our so called
Christian religion. Our practice
does not comport with our teach
ings.
We have laws and societies for
the prevention of cruelty to ami
mails. We have societies advo-
eating birth control. We have
laws against the sale and use of
narcotics, unless prescribed by a
physician. We amended our
Constitution to prohibit the use
of intoxicating liquors, except
when prescribed by physician.
We have societies advocating a
law to prohibit the use of tobacco,
and a law to actually prohibit it's
use by youths. We have laws
aimed at protecting our people
in their health. happiness and
morals. We have laws to punish
people who make an attempt or
threaten to do another bodily
harm. however slight. We have
laws to punish people for making
insulting remarks to another, or
saying things derogatory to their
character or good name We have
laws to take the life of a person
who deliberately takes the life
of another without lust cause. We
have laws that forbid the killing
of a great number of birds and
wild animals. We have laws that
are aimed at one hundred and
one other things, touching the
conduct of men and women. And
yet, the same authorities that
