...everyone should be, most appreciative of the true representation of facts-I believe that such is your intention. It was, therefore, very unfortunate indeed in referring to the death of Rev. Dr. Samuel Smith Drury, headmaster of St. Paul's School that you said he was "passionately loved, feared, hated by his pupils" [TIME, Feb. 28]. Yes, loved and feared as only boys can help but regard their teachers-but hated, never...
Many a small church has to put up with the cacophony of an unskilled choir. From England last week came news of how Rev. V. B. Yearsley, vicar of Benenden in Kent, rigged up a phonograph with a volume control under his lectern, obtained a number of records of pieces which he instructed his unskilled choir to sing.

...soberness the tenuous prospect of peace on earth. Though many Protestant clergymen are out & out pacifists, most Catholics have been restrained on that subject. Newsworthy was it, therefore, when an eminent Catholic divine opened Lent with a ringing pastoral letter on the subject of peace. He was the Most Rev. John Timothy McNicholas, the forceful, ruddy Dominican who for 13 years has been Archbishop of Cincinnati. He wrote...
