"REAL CATHOLICS"
The event brings to mind q re-
mark made o year ago ct the time
OF the last conference when In con-
versation with a group Of Catholics
] made mention OF the event and
one OF them spoke up and remark
ed: But they ore not real Cath

man was Of course identifying, as
many Catholics do, these Eastern
Catholics with the Eastern Ortho-
dox who do not recognize the auS
thority Of the Holy Father, are not
united with Rome and do not call
themselves Catholics.
However, the Catholics Of the
Eastern Rite are very much real
Catholics. They have the same
faith, the same sacraments, the
same sacrifice as Catholics Of the
Western or commonly called Roman
Rite, and they as we, recognize the
authority Of the Holy Father as the
successor Of st. Peter rs head Of the
Church. Moreover. though Its cere-
monies would be most strange to Us,
we Of the Roman Rite could full
Ill our obligation Of Sunday Mass
in q Church OF the Eastern Rite,
I'D u done for reasons Of devotion
Fe could receive In their COM
,union service.
But besides these Catholics Of the
ustern Rite there are Christians
the Eastern Rite who were once
, union with the Catholic Church,
mo now for centuries have ceased
o recognize the authority Of the
Church, but who for the most part
have preserved the Faith intact,
have q validly ordained priesthood,
offer Mass and administer the Sac
raments.
ORIGIN OF THE RITES
A Catholic rite Is o systematic
collection Of services for the worship
of G6d. These services are made up
OF many ceremonies. The first Mass,
celebrated by Christ on the day be-
fore He imolated Himself, was not
the ritualistic Mass we know today.
In the early centuries the essential
act Of the Mass OF Christ - His
taking bread and wine and Offering
it to God, repeating the words Of
conservation and giving 1t to His
apostles $3.50 was enshrtned In many
hitting and dignlfied ceremonies.
Thus with the years the liturgy Of
st. Peter, for example, was aug
mentod with ceremonies added by
his successors, the liturgy Of st.
John wuS added TO or modified by
his successors, and so the rest al
though the essential act of the sac
riIice, remained the same. In time
these. liturgies Of various places
were standardized and approved by
the Church and so were established
the various rites Of the Church.
We have today Catholic rites Of
two groups: Eastern and Western.
The liturgy Of the East has five dis
tinct rites: Alexandrine, Antiochene.
Byzantine, Armenian and Chaldean.
The most widespread Of them Is the
Byzantine Rite Of the Greek Rite as

more than a very crude attempt to put pressure on the recently seeded Machinists Union to get back into the good graces of the A. F. of L. The whole purpose of the publicity was an attempt to scare the membership of the I. A. of M. into thinking that an- other organization was going to take up their charter, and they would be forced to come back un- der terms dictated principally by the Carpenters Union.
 Sometime ago the officers of M. E. s. A. were approached by of ficials of the Michigan State Fed eration )f Labor and asked If they would accept the l. A. of M. char ter if it were offered. The M E. s. A. officials stated they were not interested as they had no author ity from their membership to either ask for or accept such a charter.
 During the A. F. of l.. Executive Board meeting Daniel Tobin, h. ternational President of the Team sters Union, invited M. E. s. A. of ficials to come to Chicago to dis cusS the possibilities of their union taking over the l. A. of M charter. The M. E. s. A. officials accepted the invitation only be- cause of the unStinted cooperation they had received from the Team sters in past labor disputes.
 At the meeting with the A. F. of L. Executive Board, M E.. s. A. was again asked whether they would accept a charter if 1t were offered. They very automatically replied that the charter would first have to be offered and the matter presented to a referendum vote of their membership. Further, they would not consider a charter un- less 1t was broad enough to per- init organization on industrial lines. In keeping with their an- cient craft policy the A. F. of L.. Executive Board, of course, re- fused. The matter was dropped.
 There are no continuing negOtia- tiOns, nor is there any thought on the part of the M. E. s. A. of &C., cepting 8 charter from the Ameri- can Federation of Labor.
 Time will tell whether the I. A. of M. fell for this bait!

 Looking as fine and fresh as new-bIown rose, Chief Herbert White returned today, August 27. from a number of restful days spent in the State of Maine. The Chief said that while the fishing was good where he went. the fish were practically absent. Clams and Holsters are now ably pinch hitting for fish along the Maine coast line, MT. White stated. All of us were glad to see the Chief back, and to inhale again the arO- ma of that old smudge-pot of his, abortive1y termed pipe.
 It develops that the lady, previ- ouSly referred to, who chats so chattily, just beyond our north window, is employed in the Dept. of Outside Machinists. So much of the puzzle is solved, but who she is, what she looks like. what she says, and why, is as much mystery as ever.
 One of the carpenters on first shift. In the north yard, relates a queer story. Recently this man while on duty. lost his pocketbook. containing fifty dollars. The next day the pocketbook was returned to him by a man on second shift. but the fifty bucks didn't come home with It. The man who re- turned the wallet claims that he didn't find 1t. that 1t was given to him by another man. This doesn't help the loser of the fifty bucks a mite, as an empty wallet buffers no parsnips, and if he is the vic- tim of a practical joke. which may be so, that joker would do well to cut 1t short and return the money, for he Is badly on the spot.

MESA. Denies Report Of Seeking Charter With AFL

Recent statements issued by the American Federation of Labor at their Chicago Executive Board meeting have been published to the effect that the Mechanics Edu- cational Society of America, af- filiated with the Confederated Unions of America, has been seek ing a charter from the A. F. of L.
 These reports included the state ment that such a charter, if grant, ed, would cover the jurisdiction of the Machinists Union, who recently withdrew from the A. F. of L.
 We have been requested by Matthew Smith, National Secretary of the M. E. s. A. and President of the c. U. A., to issue complete denial to these reports. and to give the members of unaffiliated labor unions the true facts in the case.

A lot of jack" can be made by a steepIe-jack, 1t seems. One of the men repairing the big chimney here at the Heating Plant makes a hundred and fifty bucks a week. It's a lot of jack, but after watch ing this man cling by the skin of his teeth to the smooth surface of the big chimney, while filling chinks (not in his teeth) we de- eide that he earns the big money he gets. Whether or not he lives high off the job. he certainly does while on 1t, and no mistake.
 Tomatoes are staging some queer stunts these days. Two nice red tomatoes in Joe Blake'S lunch-box, with Houdini-like magic, trans formed themselves into one yellow tomato, the other day. Joe knew for a fact that his Mrs. placed two red tomatoes in his lunch that morning. Yet, when he opens up at noon-lo and behold!-but one yellow tomato looks up, to mock him. At first. Joe, in a litter, thinks he's got unduly chummy with some other mans lunch-box, but cer- tain familiar features prove it's his. Next.

What To Do In Case Of An Eye Injury

1. If dirt enters the eye. flush freely with water.
 2. If your eye is burned, either by chemicals or directly by fire. flush freely with water. AS soon as possible bathe the eye with olive oil or castor oil. Cover with 8 clean handkerchief.
 3. If severe bruise is received over the eye do not blow the nose. Thumps around the eye frequently fracture the delicate bones of the orbit. If the nose is blown hard. air finds its way into the loose tis- sue of the lids. causing the lids to swell and the eyeballs to protrude.
 4. If you get something in your eye, don't try to take it out your self, or ask help of cO-wOrker. Go to 8 doctor or nurse.
