Warren Whitney. the combative
architect Of the restored library OF
Louvain, In the controversy which ne
waged with Mgr. Ladueze, rector OF that
seat of learning, over the erection OF the
stone bearing the inscription claimed
by the architect to have been written
for him by the late Cardinal Mercier,
has met with an unexpected obstacle
in attacks aimed at the phrasing OF
the inscription. Authoritative Lattnists
of Europe declare that as the prelate
If Malines was an accomplished classical
scholar he could not have written so
ungrammatic an inscription. The In
scription as cabled to this country and
widely copied throughout the world
reads: "Flror Teutonica diruta, dono
Americana :estituta."
In the November issue of Blackfriars,
a leading Catholic monthly Of England
published by the Dominican Fathers,
the editors, after commenting on the
opposition Of Mgr. Ladeuze to per-
petuate through the medium Of this
inscription a legend that the library
had once been destroyed by German
fury and restored by American bounty,
proceed to show that the Objectionable
phrasing carries its own refutation. As
Cardinal Mercier's reputed handiwork
Blackfriars says:
III PROBABLY was no secret 10 SdEuAlhl
MERCER that Juror is a masculine noun
and Teutonica a feminine adjective,
and his authorship of these inflated
and discord-perpetuating words may be
diSallowed on this internal evidence
alone"
Mgr. Ladeuze has taken up this
aspect again after having previously
called attention to it, but his protest,
like the more serious one, was lost in
the heat of the struggle between him
and the New York architect and he
has now protested against embodying
this grammatical error in the front
balustrade of the illustrious university S
library and in imperishable marble and
attributing 1t to the jealous prelate
and defender of Belgium's liberty, who
was also one Of her foremost Latin
scholars.
Latinists in italy have taken up the
cry. The quoting of Cardinal Mercier's
Latin treatises has begun to show the
elegance and preciseness of his diction
Much ridicule is thus directed against
the New York architect and despite the
court decree permitting him to inscribe

BALTIMORE, Md, November q

was suspected of bootlegging and whose
fellow workers collected and of1ered EVIL
dence against him; drinking oy chap-
erones at college dances and tile oellV-
cry of LIQUOR to dormitory rooms were
all described today at Johns Hopkins
Thoss who offered the descriptions
were Carleton Harrison, secretary of
the local Y. M. C. A, and students
representing about 10 colleges in Mary
land and the District of Columbia.
They were attending meeting of the
intercollegiate Prohibition Association.
Row Mccullough, travelling secretary
of the organization, said the meeting
was for the purpose OF testing the senti-
ment of the college students on the
prohibition problem. If the meeting
proved successful Mr.. Mccullough
added, the effort to ascertain the col
,ege attitude toward prohibition would
be made national.
He said 1t Is the first time any agency
has ever launched an organized effort
to learn what those In college think of
TT they think of it at all.
The meeting opened with speech by
Mr.. Harrison, who charged that delay
by the prohibition officers in making
arrests is the reason why good many
offenders escape. Mr.. Harrison Of
fered the case of the Y. M. c. A. boot
logger as an example.
He dismissed the hip flask on the
college campus as nothing to cause
alarm, saying 1t was merely a passing
affectation of smartnesS.
Following the speeches the students
held a sort Of seminar, in which they
related their knowledge of bootlegging
One student said he thought the most
drinking at the college was done at the
class dances.
Another stated he had seen chap

spectacle Of honor guests at class din
ners engaging in guzzling. A fourth
said he knew wh2re liquor could be
ordered and sent TO the dormitories
and a hfth stated that at his college
LIQUOR was not to be had on the campus
but could be gotten at private homes a
little distance away.

which is being published in Miami.
The former governor said his interest

Is understood that Mr. Raskob is one

The Miami Biltmore is one Of the

the product of the Florida boom when
the city of Coral Gables sprang up al

to each other. MY Chaicka," said Mr..
Schoonmaker in addressing his bride.
II place this ring on your finger that
the world may know what we have al
ready accepted in our hearts, that we
are mates, that We truly love each other
and shall live together as man and

Miss Pclliackova said: Wyatt, be-

world signifies that I have found in
you my ideal and that with you I shall
build life, the climax Of our search
ings, that in you have found a true
friend and understanding companion,
and with you alone my happiness finds
its completion" When the two had
made their statements, Mr.. Potter said
These two, Wyatt Schoonmaker and
Chaika Polliackova, have in our pres
ence and in their own beautiful and
well chosen words revealed their love
for each other and their Joy at entering
into this new relationship, symbolized
by the giving and receiving the mar
hands. Therefore, by virtue Of the au-
thority given me by the State, I pro-
nounce them husband and wife"
After moments hesitation they
embraced while friends crowded around
them. The bride said that she was the
daughter of Graf PHILIPPE Terrisch-
enko Polliackova. Before the Russian
revolution he directed the largest sugar
refinery in Kiev, she said.

There was no music, no elaborate
ritual or question and answer. Adher-
ents of humanisn,. the new secular re-
ligion, the couple said that they had
elected to use the ceremony because, as
worshlpers of truth and sincerity, they
regarded the usual church ceremony as
having archaic phrases that had long
since lost their meaning.
Not Given in Marriage.
Partly by intention and partly by
accident, the ceremony disregarded ira
dition. 1t was Miss Polliackovas wish
that she should not be given in mar
riage.

why we should be wed by words which
peoples said thousands of years ago,
but which have lost all their meaning"

made no difference. Mr.. Potter had in
tended to be there few minutes before

traffic tie-up delayed his arrival until
11:15. The couple awaited him TO-

Miss Polliakova asserted as she, the

was at once accepted.
Friends Await Bride.
Mr.. Schoonmaker and his best friend,
Thomas Redfern, Of Fall River, Mass,

the living room of the apartment to
await the bride. When she entered,
accompanied by the bridegroom's sister
Miss Myrtle Schoonmaker, the score OF
guests arose, the couple clasped hands
and Mr.. Potter announced their de-
cision to live together as husband and
wife.
Marriage is a very ancient institu-
