Expected Under New Pontiff's Reign HEADLINES FROM THE LIVES OF PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF! f By JOSEPH W. LaBINE In no living man's memory had a pope been chosen in 24 hours. Many years had passed since all 62 cardinals walked into the secret conclave from which one must emerge supreme pontiff; in less urgent times some of the sacred college might be absent. Most important, not since the resolute monk Hildebrand was elected Pope Gregory VII in "nto 1073 had a papal secretary of state become the vicar of Christ. But it was no accident that the Roman JLsk Me Catholic church presented a solid front, or that its college of cardinals acted quickly to choose Eugenio Cardinal Pacelli, statesman and ecclesiast, as Pius XII. In a day that demands strong men the church could find none stronger, none better fitted by experience and instinct to carry on with greater emphasis the policies of international statecraft which first found expression under the late Pius XI. Since 1929 the new pope has engineered Vatican foreign policy from behind scenes as papal secretary of state. Since 1917, when Benedict XV sent him to war-tor- n Germany in a vain peace gesture, Eugenio Pacelli has been what any nation but the Vatican- would term a "ca- - 6.

At Budapest in 1938 "Face to face with us is drawn up the lugubrious array of the militant godless, shaking the clenched fist of against everything we hold most sacred. Face to face with us spreads the army of those who would like to make all peoples of the earth and each individual human being believe they can find prosperity only by receding from the gospel of Christ and that the happiness and greatness of society, as of individuals, can but grow dim in the shadow of the Cross." anti-Chri- st At Lourdes, France, in 1935 "It matters little that they (the dictators) mass around the flag of social revolution..

Long before the Christian era men were killing musk deer and dealing in the musk they obtained from them. Musk is mixed with many other Ingredients, whose odors it seems to blend into a whole. In color it is dark purplish, in texture dry, smooth and unctuous to the touch, in taste bitter. So pervading is it that the scent remains for centuries. In 1558 "Bloody" Mary of England ordered Lady Cecily Cholmondoley imprisoned in the Tower of London. The governor of the tower, who sympathized with his fair prisoner, had her cell perfumed with musk. The characteristic perfume is still discernible after nearly 400 years. Chemically musk contains ammonia, cholcsteria, fatty matter, a bitter resinous substance and other animal principles. of Asia V'iJLJ-iaaaaaaaata- aa Hotel TEMPLE SQUARE Oaaaatla HIGHLY Karma Ttatala KECO MM ENDED Rates $150 to $3.00 It's s mirk of distinction to stop t this ERNEST beautiful kotteity C.
