Silver Lining Since newspapers do not completely ighore the opportunities of error, those ccnnected with them see the silver lin- ing in the humor that frequently creeps, into these mistakes. They tend tc rubstantiate the assertion that it is the little things of life that count. Nor are the blunders confined to the Bing- ville Bugle; when the Cardinals ar- rived in Chicago for the Eucharistic Congress papers appeared on Michi- ran Boulevard with the scare-head: "Red Hot Special Arrives." There are numerous illustrations of the differences one letter' may make. A news item in a college town solemn- ly asserted: "The examinations were hell under the direction of Professor Smith." An individual we may call Frank Clark because Clark was not his name was notorious for his contentious spirit; an acgidental change of one letter made him Krank Clark. A member of a prominent family was elected in a southern state, "He is a member of an old local family," the story said, The typesetter changed one letter and the new official became a member of an odd local family."

He reaffirms his belief in the ape- like ancestry of man and declares that intelligent men and women are being alienated from the Church of England, firstly by its reluctance to head scientific teaching and, secvus- ly, by the growth of erroneous sa- cramental doctrines, such as tramns- substantiation. On the question of man's origin, the Bishop's letters says: "Though all competent: biologists accept man's rt evolution from an ape-like stock, ai! the theological conseq ou ". such belief are still seldom statéq.
