C'cU'hrntes Mass
He celehrated masH at St. John's
commemorating the fiftieth anni
versary of his ordination as a
priest. So unassuming was the de
parture and so unforeseen that the
public was, unaware that history
had been made until Issuance of a
bulletin announcing the event by
the Htefani News Agency at 9:65
a. in.
St. John Late ran Is the "mother
church of Christendom," and is
considered the cathedral of Rome.
It was therefore natural that the
pope, who Is bishop of Rome,
should go there. He was the first
pope to celebrate mass at' St. John
Lateran since IMus IX.
The pontiff wore the dark pur
ple vestments suitable, to murning
season of advent Wednesdays and
Fridays of which are observed as
days of fasting and abstinence.
The nltar at which"the pope of
Tfieiated was the very one1' before
' which he wns ordnlned 60 years
ago.

rQR SUPPLY OF SEALS
Generally placid and quiet, the
chamber of commerce yesterday
morning was a Rabat of confusion.
Secretory Baker was frantically
going thru his pockets, the assis
tant secretary her purse, and
worry was rampant. A customer
waited patiently throughout the
search. But in vain Mr. Baker
had to confess that the city head
quarters was out four Tuberculosis
Christmas Seals and even search
thru private puiy-s and pockets
produced nothing. By rapid phone
service, special messenger to Jack
son County Christmas Seal head
quarters, prompt delivery, the cus
tomer was satisfied and order
qgain restored. Thero were then
plenty of seals.
Booth sales nt the post offices
will close Saturday night, but until
the sale ends at Christmas, the
seals enn always be had at the
chamber of commerce. And any
one who did not get a letter frith
seals in them can, by making this
effort, get them there, and do a bit
for the health of his community.
