Q. What are the facts about the sO.caHcd Star Of Bethlehem? Is 1t not believed to be some planet or some Of the brightest stars such as Sirius? What do astronomers think about this phenomenon? To what books withI specific reference to pages would you refer me for an cxpIana ton of the Bethlehem Star?
 A. Dr Burton Scott Easton of the General Theological Seminary, New York City, an- swers this question as follows: All I can say is that the Star of Bethlehem is related not as a natural but as a miraculous phenomenon. All astronomical researches are useless and to refer you to any of the pseudo scientific discussions, of which there are too many, would be to mislead you. I say this both as a professional astronomer, which l was for some years, and as a student of the Gos- pels.
 Q. What proportion of Catholic children arc educated in pafOchial schools?
 A. over one-half of the Catholic children of eiemen- tary school age are receiving their education in parOchial schools. Catholic schools are economically impossible in many districts. There are over 50,O00 teachers engaged in the parish schools of the United States, fully nine-tenths be- longing to religious institu- tions. The number of Cath Olic elementary schools in this country is at present 7,942 with an attendance of 2,103,160.

TWO FEATURES FOR COLISEUM TCiNIGHT;
 GOOD CASTS IN BOTH

A double bill featuring The Mys- sery Mar" and The Cowboy Mil lionairep opens tonight at the Coli scum Theatre.
 The Mystery Man with Robert Armstrong and Maxine Doyle. is pre-
 ented against the colorful back ground of newspapers and gangland, and takes its principal characters through a series of kaleidoscopic ad- ventures as a drunken reporter sud lsnly finds himself accused of crimes and responsible for the fu- ture happiness of very pretty girl. Leroy Mason plays the part of the master mind criminal who provides many of the compilations in the story, and the supporting cast in cludes Henry Kolger, James Burke, Guy Usher and Jimmie Burtis.
 George OBrien is the star of The Cowboy Millionaire which eschews the sterotyped formula of the har- hoiled cowboy plus fragile girl flut- tering around 1nortgaged aomesteads. No cowboy shoots up the dust of the village street. yet this fast-moving film is packed to the hilt with action ranging over six thousand miles from Lcndon's spires to Arizona's des- erts.

Tahiti's Copra Market
 Dances to War Music

PAPEETE, Tahiti, Dec. 6.-Recent quick rises and declines in prices offered here for copra have been so coincident with tension or relief in European affairs that South Sea Islanders look upon the market as a barometer of the international sit- uation.
 The reason is that copra oil is one of the most valuable sources of gly- csrin, the basis of most high explos- ives.
 When manufacture of munitions is speeded up, the bidding on the .lccal market quickens. When things quiet down a bit, the buying slack ems. Hence newspaper reports of the sayings and doings of European statesmen are interpreted in the light of market fluctuations,
