The Chapter has initiated thirteen this year and have other applications. Leslie Zcmp Chapter is in splendid condition both numerically and financially. Although having lost eleven members for various causes, we have a membership of seventy-five, with prospects of increasing that number before the end of the year. * "We have bought and paid for all 'necessary paraphernalia, and recently donated fifty dollars to the $hriners Hospital for cripple children, at Greenville, S. C., and contributed twenty-five dollars to the Masonic relief fund for the storm sufferers. The Eastern Star is closely related to the Masonic fraternity though it is no part of that ancient inatitutton. The wives, daughters, mothers, widow and sisters of Matter Masons nre co-laborers with that great brotherhood in the service of humanity, and in promulgating the, principles of brotherly love, relief and truth. Womans heart beats responsive xjto the- same inspiration tha* prompts man to noble deeds. The Order of the Eastern Star exists for the purpose of ^giving aid, comfort and protection to each other ih our journey through the labyrinth of human life, and by cheerful companionship and social enjoyments lighten our burdens. These and the sublime virtures which we are taught, as we go through the several degrees, should adorn our lives that makes this institution worthy of the protection and support of all good Masons. ^The Chapter meets the first Thursday in each month at eight o'clock. Visiting members always welcome. ?Contributed. 1 - ? Sugar Ripens Oranges Tampa, Fla., Oct. 13.?J. Edgar Wall, a local .business man, has found a method of ripening oranges three weeks ahead of nature. He says a liberal sprinkling of sugar around the base of the orange tree followed by an application of mulch paper to the base of the tree is the secret. The application must be made a year in advance of fruiting time.

Set8 Roddey Straight L Mr. John T. Roddey, a moat prominent business man * and citizen of Ifock Hill, in quite a lengthy article in the Hook Hill Record of last Saturmf, made quite a number of com-1 ments on oaths that bind Catholics I Xq their faith, and the same comments have been made in Camden and other places. Catholics, and especially Catholic, priests are prone to take part in any discussion of polities, hut at Mr. Mulvihill says he J could not let these statements go by in silence, less some might thiuk his acquiescence meant they were true. The Chronicle is reproducing Mr. ; Mulvihill's reply to Mr. Roddey so that people may be enlightened on the kind of false propoganda they are spreading: - Dear Mr. Schwrar: On the front page of your esteemed paper, un- J der date of October 11, and over the ngme of John T. Roddey, there appeared an article, the concluding paragraphs of which contain an attack on the Catholic Church, or at least, a misrepresentation of her, which I, as a Catholic priest, feel called upon to correct, lest my silence be construed as an acquiescence of guilt. 1 must ask you, therefore, for the favor of your val- J Uable space for a reply. The intelligent people of Rock Hill and York County, who form the majority of your readers, will agree with me, I'm sure, that the dark and shameful days of ignorance and religious prejudice are fast coming to a close, and we are already in the dawn of a progressive and enlightened age. They are also, by this time, too well acquainted with the Catholic ChUrch and Catholics to pay much attention to these anti-Catholic "bug-a,boos" (shameful relics of an ignorant age), which, in these heated days, are being resurrected and paraded in new dress (to disquise their identity) to act again the role of the proverbial "red rag." I have, therefore, every confidence in the intelligence, sound judgment and spirit of iairness of your readers. ! The writer of the paragraphs to which I object, John T. Roddey, is onn of our best known, moBt respected, and most influential citizens, whose word carries a great deal of weight in our community. Moreover, he is a man of intelligence, and 1 am sure, no one will doubt his siniteerity. For these reasons, I feelf it my duty to reply to Mr. Roddey and at the same time to thank him fo.r giving me the opportunity to expose this "bogey" of misrepresentation, which should have no place in our enlightened age and Christian civilization, and which has been already exposed and refuted so often that I thought it had long since disappeared before the light of our modern enlightenment. Now, Mr. Roddey made the statement: "I have been told many times, ahd never heard it denied, that the Cktholic Church would not recognize ally marriage ceremony unless perfumed by the priest." Mr. Roddey nover heard the charge denied probably because he never heard the charge made in the presence of a Gstholic or one qualified with the information and manhood to deny it, for enlightened Protestants know the charge is false, as well as Catholics. Pgr. the information of Mr. Roddey affd others of the same mind, let me state absolutely and unequivocally that the Catholic Church regards and holds all Protestant marriages, all Jewish marriages, all pagan marriages, whether contracted before a Protestant minister, Jewish rabbi or civil magistrate, as sacred, as valid and as- lawful as the marriages otour own children in the present ?. a .?.atholic Priest-. Can that bo clearer or more definite ? What is more, if two Catholics, free to marry are so far removed from civilisation that they cannot have a priest at the.r marriage, the church regard, the free, mutual consent of those Catholics to be man and wife, as lgwful and valid marriage. fJMr. Roddey's second statement? . tt?t the Pt'est would not perform ANY marriage, ceremony UNLESS iffaith" 7^'\Z2 are m*e) I ' BOBS NOT and HAS NEVER ' ?r C?aP,e t0 such oath, .ml 1 My Mr R * gK,?
