About a week ago Ger- man police agents visited the Abbot and gave orders that the monks were to leave within eight- ecn hours. The reason given was that mciubcrs of the community had shown themselves hostile 1o the Nazi regime. Property questions, the polite said, would be settled later. The monks were allowed to take only their personal effects and seventy marks_ All the rest had to be left, includ- ing the world-famous library, and the police would not allow the Abbot to transport the sac- raments to another church at Bregeuz. The mon- astery was abandoned the same evening and since most of the monks were Swiss they were allowed to go across the near-by frontier but with only ten marks, which were exchanged for live Swiss francs. From Paris has come the news that the Catholic University has been closed by the Ger- man authorities and also that hlgr. Cegielka, rec- tor of the Polish hlissiou, has been arrested by the German police because of the sermons he was delivering. n- o n- a 'l"he Scotsmen of New York are doing their bit for the “Auld Sud." 111 a setting bedeeked wi.l1 lhistles, ﬁrs and authentic tartans of various Scot- tish clans, the Scotch Ball was given last week in the grand ballroom of the Waldorf-Astoria, under lhe auspices of the British-ihnerican Ambulance

Charlie Chaplin recently refused the New York Fllm Crimes’ award as the best screen acbcr cf 1940 be- cause he believes that his HOLES-p- tanrre wuld be an acknowledgment of the fact. that. “actors 11m com- petmg with each other.” If may have piqued the CIKLiCS, but. it con-- stitutes one of the eleazest, def.1 tions of the P35111011 cf the real a: 1st. which has been tniule in curl time. For honest, art is the enemy of blue ribbons and prizes and it always has been. Rcmor once said that. the Grand Salon had mined more goodppalnting than any other single institution.

Since that. ill-fated moment. talented young men and women have been devoting their efforts w capturing awards Instead of producing art. I mink we lsliculdvall be grateful b0 Mr. Chaplin for pomt ng this out 1n the motion picture field, a place where the abuse of prize awards and actors’ trophies is particularly datructive to merit.

sun-The following information was izathered while traveling from the New Brunswick woods recently: About six miles from Moncton there is a queer and intriguing phenomen- on known as “the MB-knetlc H11.” 1t was shown to the American news- nanermen when they visited Mone- ton. For years. it. was referred to as "the l) ace where the water runs un hlll." but otherwise thouizht ot -verv little. Then. the more inquisi- tive began casting about for a sult- able explanation of this unusual cc- cumence. and some suazested the demsibs of tron ore, which thzv claim exists under the hlll. exerted force on an automobile and drew 5t up-hlll bv maimetism. Hence. the present. name "Magnetic Hill.’ Some , call it. "the Marla Hill."
