And how long has been one year.
Now I try to hide the sadness
And to check the lonely tears.
I have had one year of sorrow.
I am suffering an awful loss.
But for the sake of Jesus
I will try to bear the cross.
God saw the road was getting rough.
The hills hard to climb.
He gently closed his loving eves
And whispered. "Peace be thine.”

Boy Adventurers
Back Home After
Night in Garage
Return to Civilization
With Stories of Great
Open Spaces.
Bark In the humdrum routine of
everyday life, two 10-year-old adven
turers today held their conservative
schoolmates at Oyster School en
thralled with stories of life in the
great open spaces.
The adventurers—John Hardell, jr.,
and Stanley Lister—returned to ‘'civ
ilization" and their frantic parents
yesterday after they were found sleep
ing in the attic of a garage on an
Alta Vista (Md.) estate.
The lads vanished mysteriously—
they both belong to a mysterious
club—from their homes Monday,
mounted their bicycles laden with
camping equipment and rode away
into the great open spaces.*
When they arrived in Alta Vista,
they were weary, so they decided
to camp in the servants’ quarters on
the estate of John’s aunt, Mrs. Wil
liam Crane. Adventure is nothing
new' to John. Once, he almost became
a fisherman, but found it difficult
to save enough money to buy a
boat, so he abandoned the idea.
Another time, he decided to go to
Europe, but discovered he would have
difficulty getting a passport, so he
discarded that idea, too.
Now only the members of his
secret club—so mysterious even its
name cannot be whispered—have any
idea what the next adventure may be.
John is the son of Mr. and Mrs.
John W. Hardell, 2226 Cathedral
avenue, Stanley's parents are Mr. and
Mrs. J. H. Lister, 2848 Twenty-seventh
street.

What About Price?
Funerals cannot be sold in exactly the same manner as
merchandise, since the chief item is the service. The family
alone names the price, based entirely upon what they wish
to pay, what type of service and merchandise they desire.
However, we give positive assurance that when the family
desires, we are equipped to furnish funerals as low in price
os any establishment which advertises price. More impor
tant, though, our service is superior in every detail.

MIS ASK POPE
10 VISIT GERMANY
Insist His Holiness Person
ally Find Out Facts In
volved in Breach.
By the Associated Press.
BERLIN, June 9.—The official or
gan of Fuehrer Adolf Hitler's picked
Schutz StafTel Guards, Schwarze
Korps, called on Pope Pius today to
come to Germany and find out for
himself the facts of the breach be
tween the Catholic Church and the
Nazi government.
Schwarze Korps’ Injection of the
personal issue into the conflict fol
lowed an official press demand that
Germans choose between Hitler and
the Vatican.
Single Decision Demanded.
"We must now demand one single
decision.” the government-controlled
Westdeutscher Beobachter at Cologne
said editorially—"Are you willing to
obey Adolf Hitler more than a church
government which long ago became
a secular power?
"It Is quite evident in Rome that
there is not a religious leadership,
but a purely secular center of power,
fighting to maintain its suzerainty
over whole peoples.”
The paper invited the Pope to come
to Germany "and convince himself
with his own eyes on conditions in
Germany and decide who tells the
truth and who does not.”
The articles in Schwarze Korps and
the Cologne paper continued the attack
on Pope Pius for failing to call George
Cardinal Mundelein of Chicago to task
for criticism of Hitler and his rharges
that the trials of Catholic monks and
lay brothers on charges of immorality
were being used as propaganda against
the church in Germany.
Schwarze Korps listed the offenses
which it said have led to the estrange
ment of relations between Berlin and
the Vatican as priests meddling in
politics, attempts by monks and nuns
to smuggle money out of the country
and immorality.
It added, warningly:
Warning Issued.
‘Even diplomatic regard comes to
an end some time.”
The conflict between Nazidom and
the Holy See was moving toward a
showdown with a rapidity causing uni
versal surprise.
Observers recalled that only four
years ago Catholics won a concordat
safeguarding the rights of the church.
Some disagreement followed when
Nazis Insisted on the right to control
the physical and political education of i
young Germans and attempted to
bring them from under the Influence
of the church schools.
In 1935 the first brief flare-ups came l
with the trial of monks and nuns on <
charges of violating Germany's strict i
foreign exchange laws, and In May,!
1936, the, Reich brought a group cf j
Franciscan lay brothers to trial on;
charges of sexual immorality.
Open Breach This Spring.
The open breach did not come, how
ever, until March of this year, when
the Pope's encyclical to the German
bishops denouncing national socialism
as unchristian was brought into the
country secretly and read from the
pulpits.
A new series of Immorality trials
followed, and when the Vatican ig
nored demands that Cardinal Munde
lcin be rebuked, the Reich moved
toward what some saw as a formal
diplomatic breach with the holy see.
Germany advised the Vatican con
ditions for normal diplomatic relations
no longer existed.
In Koblenz yesterday two Catholio
brothers were sentenced to prison
terms after trials for alleged im
morality. One was given two and one
half years in prison, the other one
year.
