Time went on, and in 1922 a greater I honour came to him than even Cardinal Secretary of State and he ,became Pope. He did not forget the copper ball of St. Peter’s and the great heat inside it, and ho bias now had it lined with misdating material, 'and though th 0 sun may beat upon its outer surface, the inside remain® cool for the ! adventurous visitors who climb to it.
