Watch Out For The Oath Several persons in Adams county have been handed copies of an alleged “oath” of the Knights of Columbus, which is ordered from The Voice of the Nazarene Inc Elizabeth, Pa. These were published this spring by W. L. King, publisher of a magazine called “The Voice of the Nazarine”. In spite of protests by the Knights of Columbus, who have been fighting this oath since 1913, and who offered all kinds of proof that the alleged oath was false and spurious, he continued to print copies of the tract and spread them throughout the United States. On Wednesday, August 3, the district attorney of Allegheny county (Pittsburgh), Pa., issued a warrant against King, charging him with criminal libel of the Knights of Columbus for having circulated the “oath.” He was arrested on the warrant Aug. 5, and held in the Pittsburgh police station, to await a hearing, on his failure to give bond. Forty years ago this same oath was circulated in Adams county. Any thinking person just reading it could not but realize full well that it is not used by any group. The Knights of Columbus was incorporated in 1882 under a charter granted by the general assembly of Connecticut. It is a fraternal society composed of Catholic men who under said charter provide an insurance system for members, and promote social and intellectual exchange among the members. The local K. of C. is headed this year by David Terveer, well-known as a former coach and basketball referee. It includes such well-known men high in public esteem as Chief Justice G. Remy Bierly, of the Indiana Appellate Court, Mayor Donald F. Gage, Prosecuting Attorney Severin H. Schurggg. It includes many other less known men who are just highly esteemed by those who know them. It freely admits and encourages guests to its chapter rooms. No proof that the alleged oath is taken by K. of C. members has ever been offered in the many pervious criminal libel suits. To give the appearance that it is genuine, it often says on the oath “as published in the Congressional Record, Washington, D.C., Feb. 15th, 1913.” It fails to say, however, that it was published as an exhibit in a contested congressional election case, in which Bonniwell claimed that his defeat was brought about by the circulation of the oath. His opponent repudiated the claim and stated that “I apprehended with alarm the use of such a document in a political campaign or at any other time.-' I did not believe in its truthfulness and so stated my judgement concerning it on Nov. 4, 1912, as soon as - — complaint was made to me of its general circulation.” (See Congressional Record, VoL 49, Feb. 15, 1913, page 3,219.) In its report the Congressional committee on elections said: “The Committee cannot comdemn too strongly the publication of the false and libelous article referred to in the paper to Mr. Bonniwell and which was the spurious Knights of Columbus Oath, a copy which is appended to the paper.” (See Congressional Record, Vol. 49, Feb. 15, 1913, page 3,221.) The Knights of Columbus offers a standing $25,000 reward to anyone who can furnish proof that: 1. The alleged oath is, or ever was, taken or subscribed to, by the Knights of Columbus, or 2. That Protestants or Masons are or ever were referred to directly or indirectly in the ceremonials of the Knights of Columbus; or 3. The following is not the true obligation taken by the Fourth Degree members of the Knights of Columbus of the United States: “I swear to support the Constitution of the United States, I pledge myself as a Catholic citizen and a Knight of Columbus, fully to enlighten myself upon my duties as a citizen and conscienciously perform them entirely in the interest of my country, regardless of all personal consequences. I pledge myself to do all in my power to preserve the integrity and purity of the ballot and to promote respect for law and order. 1 promise to practice my religion consistently and faithfully, and to so conduct myself in public affairs, and in the excercise of public virtue as to reflect nothing but credit upon our Holy Church, to the end that she may flourish and our country prosper to the greater honor and glory of God.”

Midnight Is Deadline For Candidacies INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The field was virtually complete today for the running of the 1960 Indiana election sweepstakes. A few last-minute entries were expected on the local level before the midnight deadline, but there was almost no chance that a new candidate would file for a major state or national office. Indiana election law sets Sept. 1 as the deadline for filing with the proper officer the names and addresses of candidates for national, state and local offices in the Nov. 8 general election. In the ease of national and slate" offices, declarations of candidacy

must be filed in the office of the' governor. Candidates for county or i township offices must file with, their respective circuit court clerks and candidates for Congress * must file with clerks in all counties of their district. , Midnight tonight also marks the deadline for previously filed candidates to withdraw from the race. The same deadline applies to persojs by more than one party for the same offices. Three parties have filed complete slates for state and national offices, including presidential electors. The Prohibition Party, appropriately symbolized by a camel. filed its slate with the governor's office shortly after its national convention at Winona Like last May. Slates of the Republican and Democratic Parties were filed shortly after their national conventions in July. Although a minority party, the Prohibition people were allowed to file a slate by the convention method because they obtained morethan T 3.000 votes -for -Indiana secretary of state in the 1958 'general election. State law requires a petition signed by many I voters if a party receives less than I one-half per cent of the vote cast I for secretary of state in the last previous election. Ruthprfgrd. L. Decker of Kansas City heads the Porhibition Party’s national ticket as its presidential choice. Topping the “dry” choice for state offices is gubernatorial candidate J. Ralston Miller of Hammond and the lieutenant governor nominee, Waldo E. Yeater of Goshen.. The GOP state ticket is headed by Lt. Gov. Crawford F. Parker, New Castle, and Richard O. Ristine, Crawfordsville, candidates for governor and lieutenant governor respectively. Their Democratic counterparts are Matthew E. Welsh, Vincennes, and Earl M. Utterback. Kokomo. Ristine, Welsh and Utterback were holdover state senators eligible to serve in the 1961 Legislature. All three resigned to run for state office and county organizations of both parties have until midnight to select candidates to run for the unexpired two- year terms.

Cracked Asphalt Tile A cracked asphalt tile can be replaced without disturbing the other tiles. Using an ordinary hammer, put a number of dents in the damaged tile. The tile will soon begin to curl up, either at the edges or where the crack is. Lift it out of position with the aid of a putty knife, darefully scrape all the adhesive from the floor, apply new cement, and after this is dry to the touch, place down your new tile.

No Bibbon Fray You’ll never be bothered by having ribbons on your dresses or hats fray if you’ll apply some colorless fingernail polish to the ends. Just run the polish applicator along the edge of the ribbon. Milk Do not think you are economizing by using half water when a recipe calls for milk. Much of the nutrient is taken away from the dish and it won’t taste so well. There is nothing so valuable to the diet as milk, so use it.
