And upon all sides men are conceding that prohibition does not prohibit nor exclude liquor from dry territory. In the same community receive and send out the chain prayer. Nothing evidences more the Inclination to superstition of the American people. The Catholic clergy have always condemned the practice and urged their people to destroy these chain prayers when a note accompanying them promises certain joy or threat ens grief to the recipient, according as he heeds or heeds not the warn ing to recite the prayer on nine consecutive days and remall the prayer to nine others. Has It ever occurred to you what an amount of postage and writing material would be required if the chain were continued even' to the: tenth set of persons? It would exceed ?69,000,- 000. Destroy the next chain prayer you receive. BIGOTRY IN FLORIDA. Bigotry has reached its climax in Florida. On Easter Monday three Catholic Sisters wero marched as prisoners through the streets of St. Augustine. Their crime was that they had taught colored children to read and write and to worship God. There is a law in the enlightened State of Florida forbidding white' people to teach the colored children In schools erected for them. The law, though held to be unconstitu tional, was placed upon the, statute books of Florida. It was not, how ever, applied until in 1916, when the "Guardians of Liberty" came Into power. They have now given the entire country an Illustration of the liberty and enlightenment they have pledged themselves to se cure for our land. The conditions existing today in the State of Flor ida are a disgrace to the men in high office who were elected to rep resent a whole people and whose oath of office binds them to measure out justice to all citizens of the State, regardless of class or creedr Florida is no place for men who love fair play and justice, who stand squarely on American principles of liberty, so long as the State Is con trolled by those who hate justice and trample on the rights -of their fellow men. Do not wait until the last moment to perform your Easter duty. You may die in the meantime. ANSWERS POPE'S MESSAGE. President Wilson has replied to the message sent him recently by Pope Benedict, In which the Pope expressed the earnest hope that war between the United States and Ger many would not be precipitated by the submarine issue, and conveyed the impression that he hoped the United States might be of assistance ultimately In restoring peace . to Europe. The reply of the President was conveyed through Monsignor Bonzano, the Apostolic Delegate, who delivered the Pope's message at the White House. White house officials refused on Wednesday to discuss the Pope's message or the reply of the President, but in other quarters it was Indicated definitely that the exchange of messages had only remotely to do with the ques tion of peace in Europe. The Presi dent is understood to have Informed the Pope that he was very eager to keep the United States out of the war and would do everything possible consistent with maintaining the honor and rights of the United States. Neither message will be made public. EDUCATIONAL ASSOCIATION. AND WILL NOT.
