Question - Why, in the
Catholic faith, do they call
priests 'Father'?"
Answer-This is a symbol of
the priests function as a pastor
or a spiritual father to the
congregation or parish to which
he ministers. In the English
speaking world, it is a relative
ly recent practice. 1t started
in Ireland and was brought to
the United States by Roman
Catholics of Irish origin.
In France the traditional
title of a priest is Cure, which
specifically means the min
lister to souls. The common
address of the priest there is
Monsieur lie Cure, which means
Mr.. the Priest.
In other countries the ad-
dress is somewhat equivalent to
Man of God" This latter title
has been used in the Reformed
and Presbyterian Churches in
Holland and Scotland where
the address is either Domino or
Dominic.

Surplus Funds
Use Blocked

The Arlington School Board
last night refused to spend more
than. 5000, 900 in surplus bond
funds originally authorized for
construction of the new York
town High School.
County voters in 1853 ap-
proved a $3.5 million bond issue
to pay for Yorktown, which will
open in September. However,
the building has cost some
100000 less than anticipated.
In the meantime, costs of
construction at GunSton, Hoff-
man-Boston, Clay Kenmore and
Madison schools exceeded orig
inal estimates by $233,000.
Joy Urges Use
DR.. Barnard Joy urged that
the surplus be used to liquidate
the S233,00O deficit.
He contended that a shift of
a relatively small percentage of
the bond funds would be an
act of common sense rather
than one of bad faith.
DR. Joy also asserted it would
be embarrassing for the school
board to seek more bond is
sues when it has not expended
all funds available from pre-
VlouS ones.
Board Member
Robert Peck declared, how
ever, that when the board pub
licized the 1858 issue, it speci-
fed that the money would be
used for Yorktown and prom
Ised not to spend any funds
not needed for the high school.
My experience is that when
I tell people I intend to do
something, I must do it," he
said.
It's a question of how far
you can warp your conscience.
He suggested that the def
cit incurred through conStruc-
ton at the other schools be
paid through a new bond issue
or from current funds.
Attacked as "Silly"
Mrs. Elizabeth Campbell, who
vigorously opposed Mr.. Peck's
argument, said. I'VE will have
a hard time explaining why we
should not pay for one school
with funds left over from
another. Every woman will
think it is perfectly silly not to.
It's all part of trying to take
care of all our secondary school
children"
Lee Bean and James Stockard
joined Mr.. Peck in defeating
DR.. joys motion.
OF the $3.5 million author
lied for Yorktown. only S2.7I
million has been borrowed thus
far. The board voted to borrow
$450,0O0 more to pay for final
work plus an undetermined sum
to develop a nearby playground.
The remainder of the author
lied issue will not be borrowed
under the boards decision.
The board is asking that a
new Sl,750,O0O bond issue for
schools be included in the county
borrowing program which vot-
ers will be asked to approve
this year.
