Dan threw away the book of poems she had sent him —a sign agreed between them that she wished to see him no more, but the book had really contained a note telling him of her love, and wish to go with him. Alas, this, Dan never knew. Broken hearted, he joins his sister, Peggie, and her sweethearthusband, John Brady, and they all come io America to seek their fortune. Then the scene shifts back to the present, and John sees his mistake in trying to separate two loving hearts.

DEFENDS FAITH IN STATEMENT Governor Smith Says Faith Does Not (’onflict With American Patriotism New York, April 18. — (JJ.P.) —The position of Gov. Alfred E. Smith of New York on the relation of church and state today was formally before the American public, which may he asked to vote on him as a candidate for president. In a statement of faith. Smith put himself definitely on record as believing there Is no conflict between rellg ions loyalty to the Catholic faith and patriotic loyalty to the United States. The governor's statement was made in an article written for the Atlantic Monthly in reply to an open letter rona Charles C. Marsh-ill, New York attorney, questioned whether the two ■ould be reconciled. In return, Marshall today gave to he United rl’ess a counter-reply in which he affirmed his postiion with new quotations from Catholic authorties to support it. Marshall, however, insisted In his reply that Smith had disclaimed only or hmself the allegedly conflicting beliefs attributed by Marshall tc oyal American adherents of the Ronan Catholic church. He said he replied only to Governor Smith’s assertion that the so-called conflicting be.lets were not held by any American Roman Catholics. Tn his statement, Smith reiterated hat he is not actively seeking the of ice of president, although he would lot refuse it. He said in part: “You imply that there is conflict beween religious loyalty to the Catholic aith and patriotic loyalty to the I’nit <1 States, everything that has actuilly happened during my long public areer leads me to know that no such hing as that is true. “1 have taken an oath of office in his state 19 times. Each time I swore o defend and maintain the constitu Hon of the United States. I have nev•r known any conflict between my of ticial duties and my religious belief. “No such conflict could exist. Durng the years 1 have discharged these rusts (of public office) I have been i communicant of the Roman Cath>lic church.” In his counter reply, Marshall said lie could not allow to pass unchalleng■d Smith’s assertion that the imputed onvictions were npt held by any \mericau Catholics. He quoted at ength from “the Manuel of Christians Doctrine.” Tie cited as published by John Joseph McVey for use in Catholic schools. He quoted the book as saying that the pope has “the right to annul hose laws or acts of government that would injure the salvation of souls or attack the natural rights of citjg ■tens”; that “the state should aid, pro- . , . an( i ,1,-t..mJ tin- i i;onmn ii Catlioli<-t hurcl: ; that the principal oWigatnu; >f the heads of states “is to practise the (Roman Catholic religion themselves and, as they are in power, to protect and defend it”, and that “the state has the right and duty” to “proscribe schism or heresy.” He alleged that 20.000,0(10 Catholic students were being taught these principles. which, he said, were objection able teachings from the political standpoint. Similar quotatiems in Marshall's original letter were dismissed by the governor as dealing with a theoretical Catholic state which had nothing in common with the United States. o Heidelberg Girls’ Glee Club Here Friday Night The Heidelberg Girls’ Glee club of Heidelberg University, Tiffin, Ohio, will appear at the Zion Reformed church next Friday night, April 22, at 7:30 o'clock. The Glee Club is composed of twenty-three voices and is under the very capable direction of Miss Phoebe Steelage. graduate of the Conservatory of Music of Heidelberg. Tile singers will appear in a number of churches at Fort Wayne, Berne and Bluffton. A silver offering will be lifted. A detailed program of the conceit will appear later. Petting While Driving Forbidden In Washington Olympia Washington (United Press) Washington state law-makers were lenient witli the driver who wishes to speed along at a fairly rapid rate but “boy friends" and "girl friends" who like to do their loving while on the move ate out of luck. New motor vehicle regulations, which become effective JuAe 10, raises the speed limit from 35 to 40 miles per hour on the open road but classifies “petting'' as constituting reckless driving.
