Yes, the Catholic Church IS the church of the ignorant—the church of the intelligentsia—the church for ev- ery man, no matter what his race, color social status or type of mind. To know more of the Catholic Church—its history, its people, its be- liefs and practices,—would be, we think, interesting. May we tell you briefly about these things or refer you to books that will give you the infor- mation? Write to: Third Order Secu- lar, Loretto, Pa. WITNESS SHOT WHILE HUNTING. Clearfield.—James A. Garifeld John- son, 57, Mahaffey, was killed while hunting less than 24 hours after being summoned to appear before the grand jury to testify about the knife slaying of Harold Hutton, also of Mahaffey. As- sistant District Attorney William C. Chase reported Johnson would have been the state's star witness. He ex- pressed a belief the man shot himself.

McNutt, federal secur- ity administrator, brought his name to the front last week among State Democratic party leaders as their pos- sible “second choice” for the presiden- tial nomination next year. The hite haired former governor of | Indiana was given a reception Friday at a Philadelphia hotel arranged by a number of aprty leaders, including congressmen, state legislators and al- s0 county chairmen. Top flight party leaders in the state long ago came out for President Roo- sevelt for a third term but in recent months reports have drifted into the capitol of a sounding of sentiment for second choice should the president rainst running. Some informed sources among the Democratic leadership said quiet con- ferences which have been in progress in recent weeks may crystalize into an agreement on McNutt should Mr. Roosevelt step out—placing him in line for Pennsylvania's big bloc of 72 votes at the national convention. Geared to the, Presidential talk is spec tion over the Democratic nom- inee for United States Senator in next year's election. Senator Joseph F. Guffey months ago declared his support of Roosevelt for a third term and at the same time announced his intention to run for re-election. Others who have been mentioned as possible candidates include Auditor General Warren L. Roberts, of Bethle- hem; John B. Kelly, city chairman in Philadelphia; Thomas Logue of Phila- delphia, former secretary of internal affairs, and William Bullitt and An- thon yBiddle, both wealthy Philadel- phians, serving as United States Am- bassadors. u KEPHART URGES U. S. TO BREAK WITH REDS Philadelphia.—Chief Justice John W. Kephart of Pennsylvania, in a statement last week urged the govern- ment of the United States “to sever immediately its relations with Soviet despotism of Russia by recalling the United States Ambassador and hand- ing the blood-stained ambassador of Russia his passport.” Commenting on the Finnish-Russian dispute Justice Kephart said: “It is not within my province as chief justice of Pennsylvania to comment on na- tional and international affairs but as a private citizen which which I hope to be within 30 days, I can express my horror and amazement upon the unwarranted attack of Communistic Russia upon the little Republic of Finland.” Justice Kephart’s term on the Su- preme Court expires this year. “The people of Pennsylvania,” he said, “call upon their representatives in the Congress to protest against this latest totalitarian outrage and to de- mand that the United States Govern- ment immediately sever its relations with Russia.’ “De-licious” - DOESN’T HALF DESCRIBE IT SERVES 4 PERSONS HOFFMAN'S CHOCOLATE FUDGE ICE CREAM PIE THE Seallest.- APPROVED DESSERT-OF-THE-MONTH “De-licious” is putting it mildly.

But it is suggested, after deliberation, that a short person had best stand and a tall person should sit for the most effective work. Are you short or tall? The next problem, says the bulle- tin, is the point of attack. It is here that many a head of a house, the bureau believes, has lost the Christmas spirit through ignorance or awkwardness—or just plain stub- bornness. Only a few simple rules need be followed. The most important, of course, is to keep the bird on the platter, because it’s rather difficult to work on the floor.
