The French Court of Cessation has given a
Judgment that is causing perplexity in government
circles. Some time ago school near Valognes
taught by Sister belonging to an authorized CON
gregation was closed A few days after the build
ing was let to a lady who engaged the services of
teacher was secularzed member of the same re-
H. ;ous congregation and the authorities brought
the affair before the local tribunal, which decided
i'll favor of the school This decision has been con-
frned by the Supreme Court at Paris.
That the Catholic church is continually look
ing after the welfare of the workingman was
brought wildly before the public again By the re-
port that Archbishop Quigley of Chicago had de-
cided to have mass said in the downtown district
of Chicago at o'clock on Sunday mornings. This
will be for printers, newspaper men and 9TH
ers who work nights.
For a long time it has been realized that some
thing must be done III the religious line for the
night workers of the business section of the city
A large number of these workers are Catholics and
they have been compelled to wait from or o'clock
in the morning until and 1880 before they could
attend divine services It is to enable them to go
Immediately from their places of work to church
Sunday morning that the archbishop had ord
cred the early morning service This will prob
ably be the first step toward establishing place
where the night workers may have resting place
after their hours of work under Catholic auspices
Mr.. James Kelley, managing editor of one of the
Chicago daily newspapers, recently said that the
"day workers always have some place in which to
seek recreation. The night worker who does not
want to go from desk typewriter or linotype to
bed has only place open to him-the saloon"
Recently the Young Mems Christian Association
adopted the plan of keeping its rooms open for all
night for the accommodation of the night work
ers, and within two weeks over 800 night workers
had agreed to join the association. This movement
is most commendable. The time has now come for
the Church to establish reading rooms, gymnasiums
and other places of Christian amusement for these
young men.
