EPISCOPAL CHURCH HAS
I GRUND PAGEANT
(Continued from Page 1.)
Gregory' in the Anglo-Saxons was
aroused by the presence of English
slaves in the Roman market, and por
trayed the relation between St. Augus
tine, sent out by the pope to evangelize
the English, and the ancient British,
church.
What is characterized in ecclesiasti
cal history as the "Loss of Liberty by
the Church,” was illustrated in the
fth group. This told the story of the
murder of Archbishop Becket of Can
terbury as a result of his contest with
the king, of the signing of the great
charter, and the beginnings of the ref
ormation under the preaching of Wyc
liffe.
The next group portrayed the strug
gle with the papacy for dominance of
the English church, and the sub-titles
were “Caxton's Printing Press,’’ “En
gland Repudiates Papal Supremacy,”
“The Coronation of Edward Sixth,”
and the “Burning of Cranmer, Arch
bishop of Canterbury.”
The modern epoch of English
church history was introduced in the
next group, styled “The English
Church Regains Her Autonomy.” This
group portrayed the consecration of
Archbishop Parker, Queen Elizabeth
receiivng news of her deposition by
the pope, and the presentation of the
Bible to King James I.
History in America.
The history of the church in Amer
ica was told in the eighth and ninth
groups. One scene illustrated the En
glish preaching at Drake's Bay, aCll
fornia, another the colony at Jafes-'
town, Va., and another the mission of
the Society for the Propagation of the
Gospel in North America.
Other scenes illustrated the signing
of the declaration of independence,
the ordination of Bishop Seabury, the
?arly work of Bishop Tuttle in Mon
tana, to which he was missionary
biship beofre he became bishop of Mis
souri and the general convention
bishop this year.
Bishop Tuttle, now presiding bishop '
of the church, took part in the scene
representing his early work in Mon
tana.
Many of the scenes were extremely
elaborate, and in every case the cos
tuming was as nearly historically cor-j
rect as possible. One of the most
elaborate series of scenes was that il
lustrating the regaining of autonomy
by the Church of England. The scene
cpened with a dance, presided over by
Cueen Elizabeth. During the dance
the chamberlain handed the queen
documents withdrawing from her rec
ognition by the Church of Rome. The
queen tore the documents to pieces
and ordered the dance to proceed. s

i.CKILDBIRTHEISTHE
M IN LIFE
MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct. 19. —Fig-
’ ures showing that at least 15,000 wo
men die each year in this country
from causes connected with child
birth; and that about 7,000 of these
die from childbed fever, were quoted
by Dr. Grace L. Meigs, of the Federal
I Children’s Bureau, Washington, in a
[ paper on the care available for the
. mothers in rural communities, at the
I opening session of the seventh an-
I nual meeting of the American Associ-
I ation for the Study and Prevention of
Infant Mortality, today.
I “This fact,” she said, “which will be
j brought out in a bulletin soon to be
I published by the United States Chil-
I dren's Bureau, will be a surprise to
I many people. Deaths from these
I causes have long been known to be
I largely preventable; it is not realized
; that they are not being prevented.
No Decrease in Death Rate.
“Unlike the death rates of other
preventable diseases which show year
by year a steady fall, the death rate
from conditions connected with child
birth is not decreasing. For 13 years
the official figures can show' no fall in
this rate; during the same time the
death rate from typhoid fever has
been cut in half, and that of diptheria
decreased to less than half. These
facts show that there is great need
for improvement in the care of wo
men at childbirth in this country. We
know that women living in country
districts in the United States have in
general inadequate care at this im
portant time. This is partly because
in many such places pioneer condi
tions still prevail; in the bare strug
gle for existence many necessities of
life have to be foregone. It is also
due partly to the fact that in the
country, as everywhere, people fail to
realize the extreme importance of
good care at this time of woman’s
life; the fact that the money expend
ed for adequate care at this period is
the most necessary part of the family
budget.
“The Children’s Bureau has, during
the past year, made studies of the
care of women at confinement in
rural districts in two states; a north
ern state, Wisconsin; and a southern
state, North Carolina. These studies
show’ widely varying conditions; both,
however, shoy that in many regions
women in the country have no skillful
supervision during pregnancy, no
nursing care before or at labor, no at
tendant at confinement but a neigLb ;r
or relative. Women die, or become
permanent invalids through such
lack of care.
“A county unit plan may be worked
out including a county hospital pro
viding for normal and complicated
cases cf confinement; nursing ser
v.ce with supervision of women dur
ing pregnancy and nursing service at
confinement, and swilled attendance
at labor.”
TWENTY MEN ENTOMBED
IN WEST VIRGINIA MINE
FAIRMONT, W. Va., Oct. 19.—A

JAP EMPRESS TO SUPPLY
ARTIFICIAL LIMBS TO TROOPS
TOKIO, Oct. i.. —Empress Sadako
has decided to supply artificial limbs
and eyes to the Japanese and Germans
who were wounded in the campaign at
Kia-Chow.
The estate belonging to the Imperial
Household is estimated to reach about
590,000,000 yen or $250,000,000. Be
sides railway and bank securities and
various public bonds and debentures
held by the household, which are val
ued at approximately 180,000,000 yen
or $90,000,000, the imperial holdings
include extensive forests and rice
lands in addition to the land of the
Imperial palace grounds and the Im
perial detached palaces and villas.
The value of the Imperial property is
reported to be increasing at the rate
of twenty per cent per annum.
The money disbursed from the
privy purse is said to reach an enor
mous figure. The most serious de
mands are due to the various court
ceremonies and functions of state, the
maintenance of intercourse with the
Imperial households or rulers of
the friendly treaty powers, the recep
tion and entertaining of occasional
guests representing foreign courts
and governments, stipends, pensions
and other allowances to household of
ficials, donations and gifts to haritable
institutions and general relief work.
Others’ “Best Selves.”
We all find a good deal of comfort in
thinking of our best selves. If we
thought very much about our worst
selves we should be pretty miserable.
Such thinking as we do about “worst
selves” is usually about the worst
selves of other people. And our con
sciousness of the worst selves of other
people usually corresponds with our
power to bring out those worst selves.
—John D. Barry.
