New Holy

By EMMA RIVERS MILNER

+ Generous amounts of color and light in the redecorated Holy Trinity Catholic Church are in striking contrast to th€ subdued effect of many local churches. A cheeriness thus achieved at Holy Trinity is very pleasing to the congregation of mixed nationalities, the Rev. Fr. Edward Bockhold, paster, says. The congregation is largely Slovenian but includes Germans, Bohemians, Croatians, Poles and Hungarians. Prof. Max Autenrich of Edwardsville, Ill, redecorated the church, using his own original drawings and paintings. These express the Catholic faith through the usé of symbols. Any one interpreting them must be well grounded in Catholic doctrine, Father Bockhold said.

® = =

ON ENTERING the church, the first of these symbols to meet the view is the representation of The Trinity, i. e. the all-seeing eye’ of God, the crown of thorns and the Cross of Christ and the dove recalling the Holy Ghost, Christ, the King, is the central figure on the altar with St. Cyril to one side and St. Methodius on the other. These saints are the patrons of the Slovenians. The Stations of the Cross are marked by oil paintings on copper, very simple and uncluttered in theme so that the figures of Christ may be as large as possible in the space.

ALL STATUARY of the church has been freshened and a new

shriné has been erected to house the figure of the Sorrowful Mother. Holy Trinity was the first Indianapolis Church to inaugurate a novena in honor of Our Sorrowful Mother. Fully half the prayers offered now, at novena devotions, are for peace, Father Bockhold said. In addition to the improvements in the church building, a new organ has been installed and repairs made in the school and the parish house.

THE STATUE of St. Antony of Padua with the Christ Child is one of the newly redecorated shrines in the Holy Trinity Catholic Church. Among the most popular of the saints, often inveked when things are lost, he is said to have seen the Christ Child in a special apparition. St. Antony is shown here in the brown habit and sandals of the Franciscan Order of which he was a member.

MY BIGGEST DAY, CHURCHILL SAYS

Bit Nervous at Prelude, He

Remarks at Luncheon Following Address.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.—"This

has been the biggest day in my life!”

That is the way Winston Chure-

hill summed up his feelings after his address in the Senate chamber. Then he added a confession:

“I was a bit nervous at the preude, I must say.” Mr. Churchill made these re:

marks at a luncheon with vice President Henry Wallace and members of the joint reception committee of the House and Senate which followed the historic speech. It was held in the office of Edwin A. Halsey, secretary of the Senate.

There was a drop or two of

Scotch, and plenty of turkey. The Prime Minister appeared to enjoy both.

Sorry to Leave When the time came for him to

hurry off to the White House for further conferences with President Roosevelt, he told all present that he was sincerely sorry that he had to leave.

Among the luncheon guests were

Senators Alben W, Barkley, majority leader; Walter F. George (D. Ga.), chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, and Charles L. McNary (R. Ore), minority leader; Reps. William P. Cole Jr. (D. Md), acting Speaker of the House; John W. Boehne Jr. majority leader, and Earl C. Michener (R. Mich), acting minority leader. y

(D. Ind), acting

Also present were Secretary Hal-

sey and Col. Edmund W. Starling, head of the White House secret service.

Mr. Churchill seemed to feel at

home in Congressional company. He remarked that he had run for a seat on Commons no less than 25 times.

Believes in Telling Truth “Once I ran three times in one

year,” he said, and his listeners admitted that sounded most appalling. But when he added that he had “contested 16 elections” they really were bug-eyed.

“How many of the 18 did you

win?” he was asked.

His blue eyes twinkled as he an-

swered :

“I lost only five.” Without appearing to lecture or

advise, the Prime Minister repeatedly stressed the importance of tell-

PRODUCTION RECORD SET AT GARY MILL

GARY, Ind, Dec. 27 (U. P.).— The world’s largest steel mill set a new production record when a holiday shift of 22000 men gave the nation a much-needed Christmas gift of steel ingots.

Officials at the Carnegie-Illinois Steel Co., largest subsidiary of the United States Steel Corp., withheld actual figures for holiday production but reported a new record was set.

They estimated that the plant, operating on a 24-hour basis, reached 108 per cent of its theoretical capacity Wednesday night. They believed the output would insure a new weekly record. The mill was operating on Christmas Day for the first time since 1917.
