One hour is assigned to each for the discussion of affairs. At 10 o'clock the Pope commences his _ private audiences, receiving cardinals, bishops, prelates, high civil personages, diplomats and noblés. These conferences last until 1 o'clock, when the public audiences begin. For an hour the holy father reéceives pilgrims, associations and organizations who come to Rome to.pay homage to him. At 2 p.m. the master of the papal house- hold, Mgr. Caccia-Dominione, is re- celved, and places before his holi- ness the list of audiences for the succeeding day and asks for their approval. The Pope lunches usually at 2:30 o'clock. While he eats alone, there are meveral of his secretaries pres- ent to receive orders and discuss matters particular to their charge. The pontiff also has additional let ters read to him and gives instruc- tions for the replies. Fond of Milan Rice. The meal is simple. His holiness is a great lover of rice, done in the Then follow cutlets, or perhaps chicken. But the Pope is not exacting: he has never been known to refuse any dish placed before him. A few vegetables and some fruit complete the meal. A feature of the day which isnevar neglected Is the walk. Promptly at 3:30 p.m. the Pope enters his car- riage and is driven to the gardens. Here he walks five or six miles briskly. Even on this tramp there is work. His holiness will have at his side some prelate with whor he wants to confer. He will go into full details of the matter in hand while walking and issue his instruc- tions. At half-past five the Pontiff returns to the papal apartments. Audiences begin again and he receives cardinals, archbishops and other prelates in private audience. These conferences are scheduled to end at 8:30 o'clock, but on occasions of importance they continue much later. Supper is served as a rule at 4 o'clock. This, too, is very simple, consisting of only one or two dishes. After supper Pius XI goes to work again. At this hour he devotes him- self to the composition of important Vatican communications, later going to the library to read and work.

Opportunity is offered Washingto- nians to contribute to the Protestant church to be built at the leper colony at Carville, La. Four hundred people are wanted to contribute $5 each to the church fund. Already $300 has been sent from this city for the new church, which will cost $20,000, and be a place of wor- ship for the combined Protestant de- nominations at the colony. Contribu- jtions should be sent to Mrs. Wash- ington Topham, 43 U street northwest, treasurer of the Washington Auxil- lary Mission to Lepers. Names ot donors will be placed in the corner stone of the new edifice, Mrs. John Newton Culbertson, presi- dent of the Woman's Interdenomina- tional Missionary Union and the Washington Auxillary Mission Lepers, announced today. : This is the colony to which several persons afflicted with the disease have been sent from the National Capltal There has been a Protestant chapel at the colony for eight years, but it is a small frame structure, and not ade- quate to the needs of fhe colon There is a handsome Catholic Church.

Mrs. Culbertson stated that leprosy is on the increase, but that it will be | conquered in the United States and wiped out of this country in ten years it all agencles combine to bring about | this happy result. Senator Ransdell of Louislana has| introduced a bill authorizing the ap- propriation of $650,000 in addition to funds already at the disposal of the government to fight leprosy, and to continue in effect the act providing for the care and treatment of per- sons afflicted with leprosy and to prevent the spread of leprosy in the LUTHERAN.

C, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1922, h News, TO BE ERECTED FOR TWOD.G. DELEGATES Staples and Ferguson to At- tend Second Annual Insti- tute in New Jersey. Laurance C. Staples of 3421 Lowell street and Remick Ferguson of 653 East Capitol street have been ap- pointed by tae Washington Chapter of the Unlitarian Laymen's League as delegates to the second annual insti- tute for religlous education, to be 5 held at the Isles of Shoals, N. H., from July 29 to August 12. They will be in the company of 260 delegates who have accepted the invitation of the laymen’s leagues to be present. One hundred chapters of the league were represented at the 1921 institute, sending 132 delegates. Of this num- ber seventy-four- this year, for the first time, have accepted teaching po- sitlons in the schools of their respec- tive churches. This was the tangible result of an experiment that was based on the faith that most men welcome an opportunity to help chil- dr&n to their best development, but have failed to volunteer for service in church schools because of a sense of personal unfitness. The aim of the league is to qualify without obli- gating its members for such service. Scale More Ambitious ‘The 1922 institute, because of the success of this experiment, will be conducted on a muoch more ambitious scale. Not only is the enroliment of members and women representatives of the iocal chapters of the laymen's league doublé that of last year, but four of the most prominent figures in the fleld of religious education have been made members of the faculty. They are Dr. Theodore G. Soares, head of the department of practical theology in the University of Chi- cago: William Byron Forbush, Litt. D. of Philadelphia, founder of the in- ternational order of the Knights of King Arthur and children’s author; Hilary G. Richardson of New York, powerful lecturer on the Old Testa: ment, ané Dr. Clayton R. Bowen, pro- fessor of New Testament interpreta- tion in the Meadville (Pa.) Theologi- cz1 School. Co-Operation With League. The department of religious educa- tion of the American Unitarian Asso- clation is again co-operating with the league in the administration of the institute. Dr. William 1. Lawrence, secretary of the department, will be dean of the institute, with Dr. Flor- ence Buck, his assoclate secretary, in charge of the curriculum. The lay men's league pays one-half of the tuition, travel and hotel expenses of all chapter delegates. The chapter pays the remainder of the tuition and in the majority of cases a large part, It not all, of the other expenses of delegates. Chapters in all the Pa- cific coast states, in Utah, Colorado, Texas, Florida and in Winnipeg and Montreal are among those Which are sending 261 delegates to register at the Isle of Shoals, N. H., from twenty states, the District of Columbla and Canada. United States. A hearing is expected to he held on the bill shortly. Prevention Alm of Bill Mrs. Culbertson stresses the fact that the bill particularly calls for the prevention of “the spread of lep- rosy in the United States” pointing out that the disease {s now on the Increase, but that the medical pro- fession believe they have at last found the specific for the “oldest disease in the world,” and that under proper conditions it should be eliminated from this country. Other officers of the local mission to ~pers are Mrs. Ellis Logan, vice presi- uent at large; Mrs, S. C. Clssel, re- cording secretary; Mrs. Helen Hilta- bidle Thomas, corresponding secre- y W.'P. Cooke, secretary of Mrs. J. P. Krechting, Mrs. A. A. Birney, Mrs. Fred Beall, Mrs. Clovis G. Chappell, Mrs. Mary E. Mor- ley and Mrs. H. F. Harmon. . PLAN MASS AT CLUB. Bishop O’Connell Gives Permis- sion for Services at Fort Berry. Anthony J. Barrett, president of the Fort Berry Country Club, in Virginia, near this city, announced today that permission has been received from Rt. Rev. D. J. O'Connell, Bishop of Rich- mond, Va., to have mass at the club on Sundays and holy days of obli- gation for the benefit of the members of the club. The bishop, in a letter to Mr. Bar- rett, regretted that he had not a priest available to say mass for the club on Sundays, but gave power to the president to imvite any priest to say mass for the club. Following the smoker on July 15 it is_planned to have mass every Sunday morning at the club. A Wash- ington or visiting priest will be en- tertained and will celebrate mass.

Golden text: “The kingdom of the world Is become the kingdom of our Lord and of of His Christ, and He shall relgn for ever and ever.—Rev- elations, 11.15. Important divine messages have been communicated to men by dreams. The mysterious phenomena presented by these mental visions, that come to men in thelr sleep, has been studied Ly eminent philosophers, psychologists and physiologists. They have approached the study from dif- ferent angles and have partially solved the problem presented by dreams. The scientific men of the Babylonlan court were baffled when Nebuchadnezzar summoned them to interpret a forgotten dream, which troubled him. It was in the secong. or, according to Ferrar Fenton translation, the twelfth year of Nebu chadnezzar's relgn, when pressing problems concerning the empire’s fu- ture probably demanded solution, that he had this vision. It was nat- ural under such circumsances for him to dream concerning the world policy and future power of his king- dom. < The court officlals, who were ac- customed to interpreting dreams by a mechanical process, were unable to comply with the king's unreasona- {ble demands. They could not recall the forgotten dream and give him fts correct interpretation. When we ap- proach the study of the lesson we are called upon to solve difficulties due to apparent discrepancies. These probably were not considered to be such when the Book of Daniel was written. It is not necessary that we master them to understand the mes- sage of the book and the lesson. It was written to inspire the crushed and afflicted Jewish people to place their unshaken confidence in God. Its philosophy of history has given the book of Daniel a powerful in- fluence over Christian thought and conduct. One needs to study care- fully the revelations, recorded in the seventh, eighth, eleventh and twelfth chapters of Daniel, if we are to un- derstand Nebuchadnezzar's forgowen dream. . We are all probably familfar with the psychological conditions of the king, who awoke with a tremor. The terrifying experience left an impres- sion which filled his mind with ter- ror. He feared that something ter- rible was about to happen. His anx- iety was greater because he could not recall the frightful dream. He was frightened because he thought the forgotten vision contained some divine message concerning the fu- ture. He summoned his magiclans, astrologers, sorcerers and scholars. He ordered them to inform him con- cerning the vision and its interpre- tation. The wise men Insisted that it was im- possible for them to comply with the king's request_ which they claimed was unreasonable. Webuchadnezzar informed them that if they failed to comply with his commands, that they should be put to death in a disgraceful manner and all of their property destroved, while if they obeyed his commands, they would be rewarded with appropriate gifts and given great honors in appre- ciation of their services. When the scientists failed to comply with his commands, the oriental despot insued orders that they be destroyed. In this crisis, Daniel became the man of the hour. This voung Jewish prince was among the first captives whom Nebuch- adnezzar had brought from Judah. Hp had surpassed his fellow students in the Imperial University, just as many of his race are doing today by utilizing the opportunities given to all to secure an education in our land. His col- lege record revealed that he was a young man of purpose, prayer and preception. He never failed in his loyalty to Jehovah. He won as a re- isult of his character, capacity and culture a_high place in the nation’ affairs. Daniel learned of the king's order, when he and his three faith- ful friends were sought in an effort to comply with the king's command that all the scientists should be de- | stroyed. The eminent Jewish scholar protested against Nebuchadnezzar's edict and requested that he and his friends be allowed a fixed time within which to make known to the king the forgotten dream and its interpreta- tion. This reasonable request was granted. Daniel and his tiree loyal friends united in prayer requesting the God of heaven to make known to them the dream and its interpreta- tion so that the lives of those who trusted in Him should not be de- stroved in accordance with the king's orders that all the scientists should perish. In answer to the prayer of the four friends, who had proven their loyalty to Jehgvah by their fidelity to His princlp&’n and precepts during their student days, the forgotten dream and its interpretation were communicated to Daniel. He poured out his heart in thanksgiving for this divine reve- lation. He humbly pointed out, when standing_before the king, to make known the dream and its interpreta- tion, that it was not due to any per- sonal excellence which he possessed that caused the Lord to reveal unto him the philosophy of history, which God had communicated to the king in his dream concerning the world king- doms. The image of the huge colossus was similar to those that Nebuchadnezzar had seen daily in the statues that beautified the public buildings of Babylon. While there is some differ- ence among scholars as to what na tions are meant by the different div slons of the image, we follow the usual Interpretations. The lesson makes it clear that the golden head refers to Babylon. The silver arms and breast represented the Medo-Per- sians. Greece was portrayed by “the -belly and thighs of brass.” Rome was indicated by the iron legs. Babylo- nians were characterized by their love of pleasure. Medo-Persians were marked by their desire for glory. the culture of the intellect. Rome was noted for the power of its iron rule. The four Kkingdoms of the huge image revealed the fact that history followed a divine plan. Daniel in- terpreted them to be world powers. “Its unity represents the fact that the different empires of the earth are only parts of one great whole. They are all animated by the same FRIENDS.

They are all founded on hu- man ambition. They are all antag enistic to God and to His truth. The body has many members, but all these members are moved by one will. 80 the guccessive world monarchies have all been pervaded by one spirit, which has striven through them to gain its own ends.” This results in their de- terioration. This was indicated In the image, where gold was supplant- ed by silver, which gave way to brass that was set aride by iron. Human power at its beat and highest period is not equal to God's power. The huge colozsus was no match for the small pebble cut out of the mountain. None of theee kingdoms passed away without performing some defi- nate service for the advancement of the kingdom of God. It was during their exile in Babylon that the He- brews were cured of their idolatry. During the rule of the Medo-Persians the Jewish exiles were permitted to return to Jerusalem, rebuild the city walls and the temple. It was under their protection that the worship of Jehavah was restored, the Scriptures collected and the people instructed in the word of God. The Medo-Per- sians’ contribution was permanent It resulted in keeping the divine fires of religious truth burning until Christ appeared. In the providenoe of God. the Greek language, which had become as a re- sult of the world-wide Grecian rule a universal medium for literary and scientific speech, as well as for com- merce and politics, was the one intn which the Old Testament had been translated. The richness of its re- liglous, ethical and philosophical terms made the Greek the best suit- ed of all languages to express the lofty ideals and fundamental truths of Christianity. The Romans by their system of public roads and jurispru- dence prepared the way for the rapid publication cf the gospel and the protection of the preachers who car- ricd to men the message of salvation and the Master's spiritual supremacy. All the aid that a hostile heathen world wus competent 1o give had been provided when Jesus was born in accordance with Jehovah's prom- ises and prohpecies to the Jawish people. He came at the midday of the imperial greutnees of Rome, just as Daniel had pointed out to Nebu- hcadnezzar that He would come “in the days of those kings” The work of the Roman empire was emphati- cally that of unification. It was des- lacked the essential element to unite the various races, and religions of the world kinzdom into unity. Force cannot unite humanity. Faith and love unites. ()l‘Jr country faces today a similar peril to that which destroyed Rome. A recent writer has pointed out that “about 58 per cent of all the inhabit- ants of America are of no church, and pay no regard to any religion” Pershing last Tuesday pointed out the nation's menace revealed by a laxity in reference to law and morals If public opinion is to eflace the menaces of our country, as pointed out by President Harding in his Marion centennial address, it must he by making “a little more permanent and a little more Influential the tend- ency to religious worship, which is the’ softening influeno® of American life.” There is no greater power than the faith of the Lord Jesus to eradi- cate the tendency of gowernment by force, which usually follos WS a period of warfare. It has demonmstrated its needed i superior unifying power among na- tions and men. Rome has placed its seal upon the authenticity of His atonement. Jesus cstablished His innocence before a Roman tribunal The soldlers of Rome, who crucified Him, testify to the reality of His death. Those who watched at His tomb have helped to establish t genuineness of His resurrection. He came and died according to the Scrip- tures. The stone “cut out of the mountain without hands” clearly refers to the supernatural origin and divine char- acter of the personality who was to master the kingdoms of men and dominate the world powers by His =piritual supremacy. It points with- out question to Rrist, the stone which the builders rejected.” Daniel identifies the mysterious stone with the Son of Man, who takes possession of the kingdoms of the earth (7.1 World empires_built upon force al- vays perish. History is the grave- rd of such kingdoms. A number {of them have been overthrown in our own times. The needs of humanity demand that the spirit of militarism be crushed. and a brotherhood of na- tions and of men be established where the rule of force and selfish greed shall give place to government and associations, dominated by love and revealed in friendship, justice equality and liberty. The unchangeable Christ is the world's hobe today. The issue of Hix work is not complete. It will not be until His rule shall completely change those nations built upon force by the transforming power of love. All the other world powers have perished, but His will last forever. His kingdom is destined to dominate all the other powers and nations until His su- premacy is acknowledged. Just as Nebuchadnezzar bowed down and rey- erently worshiped the God of Daniel. so every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is the King of kings and Lord of lords. The time of His coming is rapidly drawing near and we can hasten the hour, when angelic voices will proclaim “the kingdom of the world is become the kingdom of our Lord and his Christ; and He shall reign forever and ever.” BRIDE-TO-BE COLLAPSES AS LAW HALTS WEDDING Alleged Wife Deserter's Arrest Saves Woman From Bigamous Marriage.
