Urbach Potato Shown
In New Mexico
Leon Urbach dug a potato. No
doubt he dug several from his
prize garden right here in Sew
- ard, but this particular spud he
gave to Mrs. J. B. French, moth
er of Baird French, who is en
gineering the building of the
highway.
Mrs. French packed up the
potato and sent it air mail to her
cousin, Chester T. French, in
Albuquerque, New Mexico, just
to show him the kind of potatoes
grown in Alaska.
Mr. French writes that the po
tato is on display in the window’
of the Albuquerque, National
Bank and attracts a great deal
of startled attention. The fol
lowing article was clipped from
the “Albuquerque Tribune":
“ALASKAN SPUD SHOULD
LAST SEVERAL MEALS
“Proof of Alaskan agricultural
prowess was received today by
Chester T. French in the form
of a large Alaska potato air
mailed from his cousin in Sew
ard. •
“The potato, ‘ which weighs
four and one-quarter pounds,
was sent to Mr. French by Baird
M. French, former Albuquerque
resident and UNM graduate who
has been employed in Seward
for the past year as an engineer.
“The potato measures seven
and one-half inches long, four
inches wide and three inches
thick.
“ ‘This one spi/d should last
me for several meals,’ Mr.
French said.”
We have been accused of rais
ing all sorts of things in Alaska,
including a common short term
for “ruckus.” Now, thanks to
Mr. Urbach and Mrs. French,
proof has been given to those
Outside that we can raise other
things as well, including po
tatoes.
Mr. Art Liening, president and
general manager of Falls Creek
Mine, and Mrs. Liening expect

turn to Falls Creek early in the
spring to continue operation of
the mill and development of the
properties.

Hate is the cancer of the soul. Hate
eats away what is fine and noble
and tender in man. But you can
purge your soul of hate. The Epis
copal Church can help you find in
Christianity a love which will cleanse
and renew.

. . . as the Devil hates Holy Water!
“The Devil! Holy Water! Dark
Age superstitions, are they not?”
"Hardly, my friend. The Bible
relates the fall of Lucifer and
the temptations of Christ by the
Devil; and Holy Water's use by
the Church can be traced back
to about the second century—
quite a bit earlier than the per
iod which some people choose
to term the Dark Ages.”
“But why water? Why holy?”
“The water is ordinary water
with a bit of salt in it. Water
is symbolic of cleansing. Salt
is a symbol of preservation
from corruption. This combin
ation has no power of its own,
but when blessed by a priest
who represents Holy Mother
Church, it becomes holy.
“To understand this you must
recall that Christ while on earth
gave to the Apostles and their
successors many of His own di
vine powers to be used only
through Him—that is, the wash
ing away of original sin through
Baptism, the forgiveness, of ac
tual sin through Confession, the
changing of the substance of
bread and wine to the substance
of His own Divine Body and
Blood—and four other sacra
ments.
“In a similar manner God
gave to His Church the right
and power to bless in His name
inanimate objects which, al
though powerless in themselves,
identify the individual’s prayers
(when said with faith and de
votion) with the prayers of the
entire Church.
"At the entrance of every
Catholic Church there is one or
more Holy Water Fonts. To the
Catholic, one of the most com
mon and most powerful forms
°i prayer is to dip his fingers
mto the Holy Water, make the
Sign of the Cross and thus iden
tity his individual prayers with
those of the entire Church for
the welfare of his own soul, his
neighbor's soul, or the souls in
Purgatory.
"A piece of white cloth has
m itself no power; but when in
the heat of battle it is raised on
high it has the power, recog
nized by all nations, to silence
the guns, while emissaries are
sent to bargain for peace. If
mere cloth has this man-given
power, is it not logical to believe
that water can be given the
power of especial prayer, when
blessed by God through His
Church?”
As darkness hates light, as
error hates truth, as malignity
hates sanctity—so the Devil
hates Holy Water.
If it's anything Catholic, ask a
Catholic!
