Grace Before Aeals

The church has established prayers
which should be said before and after
meals. In religious communities these
prayers are always said, and are
somewhat long But for the faithful
generally, the church has made them
so short that even the most simple
people can and should say them al
ways before and after meals. The
prayer before the meal in this: "Bless
us, o Lord, and these Thy gifts we
are about to receive through Thy most
gracious bounty, through Jesus
Christ, Our Lord. Amen" And when
this meal is over, we should say: eve
thank Thee, o Lord, for these Thy
gifts through Jesus Christ, Our Lord.
Amen"
That is not much to ask from any
ono of us for the food that nourishes
our body. And yet how few there are
who ask Gods blessing on the food
they are about TO eat, Or to thank Him
for the victunls they have eaten.
1t seems to me that many a quarrel
and many a complaint made about the
food, or the way it is cooked or
served. would be averted if the bless
ing of God had descended upon the
eaters and their food before the meal
began, and again. that better health
and more peace in the family would
result if all when they got up from
the table would say in all sincerity Of
heart: 1--WE thank Thee, o Lord, for

A Type Of "FaIlen Away Catholic"

OF all the unfortunate mOrtals who
belong to the far too numerous class
known as "fallcn-away" Catholics, the
most illogical is surely he who has
abandoned the church because of some
real or fancicd injustice received at
the hands of one of the church's min
listers, says the Ave Maria. AS If
Gods claim upon our love and service
depended upon the conduct of our par
isll priest! "a common sop to ones
conscience" says a contemporary es-
sayist, "is to grow eloquent over the
shortcomings of the clergy; but it is
doubtful il God will judge us by what
the clergy do" Yet because Father

the latter as some Of his sympathetic
neighbors will tell you, "has never put
his foot inside the church from that
day to this"
These same neighbors,t with their
half-hearted depreciation, not to say
their actual condonation, of his un-
justifiable action, are anything but
robust children Of the church, and in
one sense are more culpable thar the
rccalcitrant Catholic himself. The
sense Of injury, fostered and fed un-
til it has grown to be monster pas
sion, may partially explain, though 1t
cannot of course palliate, his inscnsatc
conduct; but the coldbloodcd, deliber-
ate approval of such conduct by Cath
olics who profess to be sensible men
and women is n piece of folly that
would be incredible were it not often
met with. Losing ones soul "to spite
the priest is surely the very climax
of unwisdOm, and to Justify it is
work more congruous to the enemy of
mankind than to a genuine Christian.

But if Hancock had treated him
slightingly, there was no doubt about
the attitude of the people. They gave
him tremendous ovation. AS the
procession approached the thickly-set-
tied part of the town, it opened up,
letting Washington ride between the
facing ranks, with head uncovered he
turned his body slightly from side to
| side, toward the multitudes that lined
the street and houses.
At the old state house Washington
passed under the great triumphal arch
! erected in his honor. Here he dis
mounted, entered the old building and
from portico built out from the
! Washington street side, $50 as to ex-
hibit in strong light the man of the
people," resting in an easy chair, he
reviewed the great procession come to
| do him homage.
After this Washington was conduct
ed to his lodging house, which stood on
! the site of the Hemenway building, on
the corner Of Court and fremont
streets. No dinner had been prepared
at this boarding house, but in the
! emergency tradition says that clever
lady, Mrs. Ingersoll, prepared fine
fish, which suited the president per-
fectly.
Washington ignored the invitation
to dine with Hancock at his sumptuous
home on Beacon street. 1t was all a
question of official precedence. But it
involved a great question, which was
not to be settled until three-quarters of
a century had passed, and incalculable
blood and treasure had been expended.

ored, and rebellion was rife every
where. In fact, Washington himself
had become the arch-rebel, and the OBJ
ject Of his second visit to New Eng
land was to seize Boston itself. But
the broad Charles lay between, and ten
thousand British veterans were deter
mined he should never seize the town.
Never was difficult problem more
ably solved. To hold together an un-
disciplined mob; to train that mob into
an army, to provide engineers, cannon,
powder, tents and clothing, to deceive
the watchful enemy, as to his weak
ness-all this the great commander &C
complished before he struck the final
blow. One cold March morning the
British general was astonished to be-
hold-sprung up in the night-a line
of earth-worls on Dorchester Heights.
A great storm kept the British from
attacking these lines till they We're too
strong to be carried. Nearer and near
er crept the American batteries. At
last Howe saw how impossible it was
to hold the town any longer.
On st. Patrick's day, 1916, a mighty
fleet, numbering, it is said, III war
ships and transports, bearing away the
British troops and the Tories, left Bos-
ton forever. Washington himself en-
tered the town the next day. 1t was
just twenty years before that very
month since he had entered Boston, on
his visit to Governor Shirley. His ar
my, owing to the preserve of smallpox,
did not march into the town till the
goth.
From the gallery Of the Old South
church he saw the ruin caused by the
British when they turned this old meet
ing house into riding school. On
Boston Common he reviewed his vic
torious army, then, after stay Of ten
days, he fastened away at the head
of his men to fortify New York, which
was threatened by a large force of
the enemy.
Thirteen eventful years were to
elapse before Washington again enter
ed Boston town. They had been years
of hope and despair, years Of disaster
and Of triumph, years that saw new
flag, new nation, and new govern
ment. In October, 1889, Washington,
the first president of the United States,
paid Boston his last visit. Boston, of
all places, should have given Washing
ton, it's deliverer, a hearty welcome.
Yet when Washington arrived at Rox-
bury neck, John Hancock, governor
Of the state, who was jealous of the
president, was not there to meet him.
For two hours the chief magistrate of
the nation waited for the appearance
Of Hancock, catching in the meanwhile
a bad cold, which, in addition to his
chilling reception, would have made
him turn back, had not his friends
persuaded him to enter the town with
out waiting for Hancock
The procession started down what
is now Washington street, but which
then bore the names of Orange, New
bury, Marlboro and Cornhill After
the presidents visit, the road from
Roxbury to Dover street was called
Washington street. BY 1924 the name
had extended down to the thorough

M0bS At TOXIC
DESTROY MANY
POLICE STATIONS

Toxic, Sept. 7-Serious rioting followed the attack on the Office
OF the Kokoumin Shimbun, the government organ. A mob attacked
and burned the official residence of the minister of home affairs, which
stood between the Mobiles club and the Imperial hotel, and faced
Hibaya park, which was the storm centre throughout the day.
Threatening demonstrations occurred in the neighborhood of the
official homes of Premier Katsura and Baron Komura, the foreign
minister. now in the United States, but the police prevented injury
to the occupants or damage to the houses.
TURBULENT CROWDS.
The situation tonight is threatening. Turbulent crowds fill the
streets and it is feared much damage to property is possible under
cover OF darkness. AL the police reserves are performing urgent duty
and heavily guarding danger spots. The streets in the neighborhood
of the Kokoumin Shinbun are closed and two hundred police form
a Gordon around the office.
The destruction of the home minister's residence was intensely
dramatic. Throughout the day a series of demonstrations occurred
in the neighborhood of the building and late in the afternoon the mob
attacked the house, swept the police away and battered down the
gates.
The police and servants resisted stoutly, but the mob surged for
ward and entered the building. One of the mob leaders, carrying an
armful of burning straw, gained an entrance and started a fire which
DESTROYED the structure.
