C.—The Char- lotte-Mechlenberg Ministers’ Asso ciation holding its January meet ing at the Y. M. C. A., heard Father Cuthbert Allen, O. S. B., of Belmont Abbey, speak on “The Thomist Revival.” Father Cuthbert discussed the scholastic philosophy. of St. Thomas Aquinas, and said that the philosophy of the “Angelic Doctor” was based on facts of realism by which he arrived at this conclusion, which he unified in his great work, “Summa Theolo- "gias.” Father Cuthbert said scholastic philosophy differed from tne philosophy in vogiie in the last centuries in Us conclusions which are largely influenced by the feelings. The formula of St. Thomas Aquinas was “Don’t think as you feel, but feel as you think.” All modern problems, such as capital and labor, socialism, peace, and even the temperance question can be solved by the realism of scholasticism, said Father Cuth bert. He answered a number of questions and the members of the association stood at the conclusion of his address to express their appreciation.

MANUFACTURERS Tellam’s High Grade Brand “PEANUT BUTTER” 433 Bedford Place, N. E. Atwood 2421 Atlanta (N. C. W. C. News Service) NEW YORK.—“And the great est of these is charity.” Striving to carry on its efforts in this lofty field, the Protestant Children’s Service, Inc., ever since last spring, has been trying to find suitable quarters, to shel ter homeless, neglected and de pendent babies given over to its care. James G. Blaine, who .took over as head of the organization at that time, said that at' meet ings of Protestant groups through out New York, he had spurred on the search for quarters and em phasized the responsibility of Protestants in caring for the tots under two years old. It came to a case of the Protestants being forc ed to remove the tots from city hospitals elesewhere. And now the search is over. It came to an end the other day here when Mr. Blaine and Henry G. Hotchkiss, acting for the Prot estant group, met with Msgr. Ed ward R. Gaffney, Chancellor of the Archdiocese of New York, and Joseph V. McKee, attorney. For the nominal consideration of $1, the Protestant agency ac quired a lease for quarters which will fill its needs. The property is owned and was acquired recently by the New York Archdiocese from the Edwin Gould Foundg- tion. Under terms of the lease, the Protestant group is given the use of five administration and dormitory buildings and a hos pital on a 20-acre tract. The fa cilities will provide for some 75 babies and the lease will continue until March 31, 1948. A statement expressing the deep appreciation of the Protes tant group to His Eminence Francis Cardinal Spellman, Arch bishop of New York, for making the shelter possible, was issued by Mr. Blaine. “I wish to convey my sincere appreciation to Cardinal Spell man and his Catholic Charities,” Mr. Blaine said, “for their splen did cooperation and generosity in providing the shelter so necessary at this time. The new buildings which the Catholic Archdiocese has been kind enough to lease will enable us to assume Protes tant responsibilities for the train ing and care of babies very soon. We expect to initiate the new ser vices at the earliest possible mo ment.” In an editorial titled “A Blow To Bigotry," The New York World-Telegram noted that at a “time when bigotry and secta rianism darken many corners of the earth.” the generous and hu mane action of Cardinal Spell man and the New York Archdio cese should be viewed with spe eial satisfaction and pride. The editorial asserts: “Here is a fine, heart-warming example of broad Christian humanity transcending sectarian lines t 0 care for help less children. It is also another reassurnig proof that whenever a specter of bigotry starts to stalk in this city it will get short shrift from Francis Cardinal Spellman.'
