K. OF C. NOTES.
"Russia will never fight America
nor be allied with any country fight-
Jag America," is the word brought
back from Russia by Charles Flynn
of Carthage, N. Y., most raveled
Knights .of Columbus secretary, who
has covered more than 100,000 miles
as a K. of C. welfare worker for
American troops in France, Belgium,
Great Britain, Ireland, Germany, Italy,
Hawaii ,Honolulu, Japan, China, SN
beria and Russia.
In Flynn's report to Supreme Sec-
retary William J. McGinley of the
K. of C., he states that he witnessed
the last unrecorded battle of the A.
E, F., known as the battle of nowhere
because it was fought near Lake
Baikal, 2,200 miles inland from Vladi-
vostok.
"Eight hundred Americans were
pitted against 3,000 Russians," he de-
clares, "but the Americans forced the
Russians to capitulate by a rapid and
impressive display of artillery
strength. The Americans lost four
and the Russians 52 men. A Russian
general told me after the skirmish
that Americans were regarded as the
keenest and most resourceful fighting
men in the world and that the people
of Russia could never be forced into
war with the U. S."
Flynn states that the Americans
faced the bitterest hardships in Rus-
sia, and that only a K-. of C. box-car
hut, carrying movies and creature
comforts far into the interior, kept
them in touch with the homeland.
WESTERN KNIGHTS
CELEBRATE SILVER
JUBILEE IN CHICAGO
(n" . c. w. c. NWS SEBVm:J
Chicago, Ill., July &--During the
Democratic convention in Chicago in
1896, while William Jennings Bryan
was making the famous "Cross of
Gold" speech that resulted in his nom-
ination for the Presidency, a band of
twenty-three ardent Catholics met in
a hail a few blocks away and organ-
ized Chicago Council 132 Knights of
Columbus, the first council organfzed
west of the Allegheny Mountains. In
the twenty-five years that have
elapsed Chicago Council with its twen-
ty-three members has become the par-
ent of sixty-seven councils in Cook
County with a membership of 45,000
and of 91 councils outside the county
in Illinois with an aggregate mem-
bership for the entire state ,f close
to seventy-five thousand,
Degree teams from Chicago Council
also carried the message of Knight-
hood into dozens of other western
states and furnished the initiative
which has resulted in the installation
of thousands of councils with member-
ship running into the hundreds of
thousands.
To celebrate the silver jubilee of
the K. of C. Order in the west, a vast
throng gathered last night at the Ho-
tel Sherman and carried out a pro-
gram that combined a tribute to the
living and a memorial to the dead.
Seventeen of the twenty-three in the
first class of Chicago were present to
tell again the story'of the historic
0rganization.
Prayers were offered and words of
kindness said .for the six members of
the class who had passed away.
Supreme Knight James A. Flaher-
ty of Philadelphia and Edward J..
Houlihan of Chicago, State Deputy
and Supreme Director, were the
guests of honor, the latter talking,
"Twenty-five Years in Retrospect" and
former, "A Message from the East."
Grand Knight Francis B. Allegretti
made the address of welcome and the
Rev. S. R. Roumie, Chaplain of the
Council, gave the invocation.
State Secretary Henry J. Lynch,
lecturer of the council, was toastmas-
ter. A history of the Council, which
in reality is the story of Knighthood
in the West, written by Richard J.
Murphy, histiographer, was a feat-
ure of the anniversary.
FRIENDSHIP.
What is it that charms us most in
a friend. It is that he can read the
transient expression in our face and
modify himself to suit the feeling we
are ourselves but half-conscious of
ossessing; it is that he knows when
to be silent and when to speak; it is
that he never mistakes, but sees us
true, when all the world is wrong
about us. Such a friend has not onlj
power of character, but beauty of
character.
See how high you can hold your
head and how deeply you can breathe
whenever you get out of doors.

LAYMEN'S COUNCIL
TO BE PROMOTED
BY REV. FR. TYNAN
Efficient organization of the Dio-
cesan Laymen's Council, by which the
I full working program of that diocesan
body will be promoted, had its start
last week, when Rev. Walter A. Ty-
nin, S. T. L., of Jonesoro, the dio-
cesan director, visits at Engelberg,
Pocahontas, Hoxie and Knobel.
Father Tynin, by the order of
the Rt. Rev. Bishop, will cover
the whdle diocese in the interest of
the Laymen's Council, seeking to have
the several diocesan units to function
in this great and most necessary prop-
agation of the united force and action
of our Catholic people in affairs that
touch upon them as church members
hymns. There was a great popu'a
demonstration.
St. Dominic Centenary
The Holy Father has published an
encyclical letter on the centenary of
St. Dominic in which he describes
the prerogatives of te Dominican
Order, its profound attachment to
the Holy See, and its devotion to the
Blessed Virgin. St. Dominic's faith
i: demonstrated by his triumphan
vindication of Catholic doctrine in
his victorious struggle against the
Albigenian heresy, aml by the great
doctors of the Order, particularly
St. Thomas Aquinas. The attachment
of St. Dominic to the Holy See ia
shown in his pledge to Innocent II]
on the institution of the Third Order
that it would defend the pontificate
and by the action of St. Catherine o
Siena in bringing about tho Pope'
return from Avigffon.
Pope Benedict urged the Dominic
ans to emulate their founder's vir-
tues; to intensify the religious in-
struction of the people and to encour-
age the devotion of the rosary.
Pope Benedict has given a beauti
ful flag to the Catholic Circle. Car
dinal Ratti blessed the flag at a great
meeting which was addressed by the
Catholic members of the Italian cat-
inet. deputies, and professors of th
royal university, who made splendid
professions of faith.
Prince Hirohito of Japan will reach
Rome next Monday, and on Saturday
will be received in solemn audience
by the Holy Father.

the truce, both armies desist from all

De Valera Proclamation.
A warning against undue confidence
in regard to the results of the impend-

here today, in a proclamation by
Eamonn de Valets.
"Unbending determination to en

and fortitude such as you have shown
in all your recent sufferings--these
alone will lead you to the peace you
desire," Republican leaders read.
"Should force be resumed against our
nation, you must be ready, on your
part, once more to resist. Thus alone
will you secure the final abandonment
of force and the acceptance of justic

Take my tip and crawl back. Think of
hell."
"Wait a minute; give me a chance,
I'll come as quick as I can," said
Scheeler, when he had begun, to meas-
ure the danger. And come back he
did.
Patrolman K ineavy is highly re-
garded by his pastor, Monsignor Eu-
gene Murphy.
EVERY CATHOLIC'S PRAYER.
The Rosary is a prayer for very

Bismark in the German Reichstag,

colonades of the British Parliament;
the dear old granny that can no longer
read even her heavy-print prayer-

While expressing the intention of
Sinn Fein "leaders to do all in their
power to ecure the peaceful termina-
