l'luence to present all that was edi
fying. But the theater today he
described as in “a sad state of de
generacy from the ideals which the
Church would set before the people
.from the stage.” He said that one
need never go to a theater to rea
lize the condition They have readi
ed—“catering to all that is undesir
able in men and woman.”
The great cathedrals of Europe,-
the masterpieces in the art galleries,
the work of the sculptors and the
compositions of music masters all
were noted by the Bishop. He then
referred to the preservation of the
Bible from so-called higher criti-
. -ism sayiug that one of the outstand
ing tributes that can be paid the
Church is “her unswerving unweari
ed, unshaken devotion to the Bible.
Today, as for twenty centuries past
the Church has proclaimed the -Bi
ble to be the Word of God.”

Minister Urges Protestants to
Observe “Feast of Jesus Christ”
Prominent Episcopalian Clergyman in Sermon in New
York Says Entire Christian World Should Celebrate
Feast Recently Proclaimed By Pope Pius XI
(By N. C.W. C. News Service)
New York—Very Rev. Dr. William
Palmer Ladd, Dean of the Berkeley
Divinity school, Middletown, Conn.,
in a sermon at the noonday service
in Trinity Episcopal church, Broad
way and Wall street here recently
urged the entire Christian world to
join the Catholic church in observ
ing the ‘Feast of Jesus Christ, Uni
versal King, proclaimed by Pope
Pius XI in an encycelical issued last
month. Pope Pius, in his encyclical,
fixed the last Sunday in October as
the date of the new feast. Observ
ance of the feast, Dr. Ladd told the
congregation of Trinity church,
might become a “festival of recon
ciliation” aud “would be more than
an aid to church unity in that it
would become an effective agency
for spreading the Church’s gospel
of social service.”
“The puipose of the festival is ‘to
recall to everybody’s mind each year
that Christ is King of all the peo
ples of the world’ and to combat
what the Pope calls ‘laicjsm—what
we should probabliy call irreligion
or secularism which says the ency
clical, causes discord between na
tions, unleashing of passions often
disguised a s patriotism, covetousness
for earthly possessions, contempt of
domestic duties( discord and insta
bility in families, threatens society
itself with imin.”
“Why should not all Christians
join with our Roman Catholic breth
ren in the observance of this new
festival? It would be a bold and
generous gesture in (he direction of
church unity. It might bring all de
nominations together in a way not
quite accomplished by the other
great days of the Christian year.
“It is conceivable that eventually
Christians of all denominations
throughout the nation or perhaps
that Christians of all nations should
join together on this day to renew
the fight against poverty, disease
and crime to pray and to pledge
themselves anew to work for inter
national friendship and human
brotherhood ”
Dr. Ladd recalled that attempts
to enrich the calendar of the Prot
estant Episcopal church were voted
down at the triennial General Con
vention held in New Orleans last
October. In his judgment, he said,
the calendar would bear enrichment.
Catholics Called England’s
Most Infuential Body
London—Catholics form the most
influential single religious body in
England, Fr. J. P. Arendzcn, I). D.,
Ph. D, the well known missioner,
asserted jghen addressing a big Ca
tholic ’Iroth Society meeting at
Portsmouth recently.
This is the first time this claim
has been put forward responsibly al
though many individual Catholics
have frequently discussed the situa
tion basing similar arguments upon
'the diminishing Anglican statistics.
Dr. Arendzen was discussing the po
sition of Catholics in England and
said that sometimes they were in
clined to despair of etver bringing
their countrymen into tire unity of
the Faith because they were still re
latively a small percentage of the
total population.
“Though it is perfectly true that
Catholics are a small minority,” he
said, “we Catholics are today the
dominant factor of the religious life
in this land.”
He made it clear that he did not
make the comparison for the purpose
of boasting but with the sole aim
of inspiring hope among Catholics.
“But we need not judge merely
by numbers,” he continued, “we arc
also a determined, disciplined mino
rity, and everyone knows what a
determined, disciplined minority can
do. People are sick of numberless
dissensions. Let us therefore go for
ward. Now is our time.”
Simultaneously with Dr. Arettd-
zen’s claim, the Anglican vicar of
St. Patrick’s the Rev. S. H. Ruther
ford, preaching in his church, sug
gested that the Church of England
should he prepared to give up es
tablishment. Mr. Rutherford, who
is an Anglo-Catholic says Anglo-Ca-
tholics are not particularly enamour
ed of a system which places a man
like Dr. Barnes at the head of a dio
cese.

Insurance Booklet Records
life of Catholic Scientist
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
Washington, D. C.—The first
of the series of booklets on
Health Heroes published by the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Col
for use by junior and senior
high school students is devoted
to the life ot a Catholic, Louis
Pasteur, whose experiments de
veloped the germ theory of dis
ease and revolutionized the prac
tice of medicine and surgery.
The second booklet, the latest
now available, Is concerned with
Edw’ard Livingston Trudeau,
whose contributions to the
knowledge and treatment of tu-
ceuloeis have meant fife and
hope to many.
The booklets, written by Grace
T. Hallock, formerly of the
American Child Health Associa
tion, and C. E. Turner, of the
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology, are held to be especial
ly valuable to the schools using
the National Catholic Welfare
Conference course of study in
health. The great demand for
the booklets has caused the sup
ply to be limited.
North Dakota Nuns
Died Natural Deaths Coro
ner’s Jury Concludes
(By N. C. W. C. News Service)
Dickinson, N. D.—A coroner’s jury,
which has been investigating the
deaths of five nuns, nurses at St.
Joseph’s hospital here, who died
within ten days in February, has
decided that death was due to nat
ural causes. Dr. H. M. Banks, act
ing dean of the medical department
of the state university, whose re
port brought about the jury verdict,
said that death was due to cncophal-
itis, an infectious disease, which in
one form is known as sleeping sick
ness and iQ another as brain fever.
The five nuns were taken ill on
February 13 after they had inspect
ed a new wing of the hospital. At
first it was thought that fumes
from a wood slain used in the ad
dition had caused death. On Feb
ruary 45 Sisters Ambrosina and An-
aceleta died and the next day Sis-
ctr Philolias, Sister Theocara fol
lowed in death one day later and
on February 22 Sister Sccuudia be
came the fifth victim.
