THE FUNERAL,
|. is the correct thing

1t is the correct thing
For the relatives and nearest friends
of the deceased to have masses said
as soon as possible for the repose of
his soul
To have the funeral conducted from
the parish church.
To have a requiem high mass cele-
brated on the day of the funeral.
To place a crucifiX OH the lifeless
breast in the coffin.
To keep BLESSED candles constantly
burning around the remains.
For a Catholic to be buried in a
Catholic cemetery. or at least in con-
secrated grave.
To say a prayer for the deceased at
the burial ground.
1t is not the correct thing
For relatives and friends to spend a
great deal of money for flowers and
the trappings of woe, and little or none
for masses. :.
For those in attendance at wake
to make it the occasion of merri-
ment
For people who are not rich to have
a great many carriages.
Fer fri.nds who can not afford the
expense TO send expensive floral offer
ings.
For friends to spend money for a
carriage and for flowers, and neglect
to have a mass offered up for the
departed soul.
TO expect a consecrated rave. and
a priest to conduct funeral services Tor
one who refused the ministratlollS Oh
the church whilst living.
For friends TO be careless and neg

For mere acquaintances and strdnG-
ers IN crowd the church through a

During Lent.

One of the good works the practice OF
which is especially commended 10
Christians during the Lcnten season is
aims giving. In the generic sense an
aims is any service rendered TO ones
neighbor. -eminently the spiritual
and corporal works of mercy; speciflcal-
ly, it is the Offering of money OF OF
what has appreciable money-Nalue, TO
the poor and needy. Excellent as is the
practice-aud, in conjunction with
prayer and fasting. it is certainly one
of the principal means of satisfying for
sin and of attaining perfection-there is
yet a caution that may well be I'M
pressed upon the mind of the aims
giver 1t is that we arc bound TO be
Just before we are generous. Liberal
almsgiving is a good thing i'll itself, but
the liberality displayed by many is UNI
questionably u constructive injustice
Delinquent debtors; violators of the
seventh commandment which obliges us
Ito pay our lawful debts and give every
one his due men and women who de-
liberately avoid. postpone, or indefinite
ly delay the payment of lcgitlmately
contracted bills; persons who incur new
debts while foreseeing their inability to
liquidate those already owing-all such
Catholics err egregiously if they mag
inc that their most open-handed generE
osity to the necessitous will condone
their patent dishonesty toward their
creditors. They are substituting a work
of supererogation for a positive duty;
are giving away what is not really
their own; are without question violat-
ing the divine command, Thou shalt
not steal" Alnsgiving is good; pay
ment of ones honest debts is both good
and necessary.-Av Maria.

FIVE PRIEST SONS AT HER BIER
Unusual Distinction For Widow of
Former Official of Cincinnati,
Hamilton and Dayton Road.

To have her five SOILS. all priests,
officiating at her funeral is the. distinc-
ton which the late Mrs. Johanna Stan
ton Hickey shares with no other wo-
man, so far. in the history of the Ro-
man Catholic church in the United
States.
Mrs Hickey, who was the widow OF
Patrick Hickey, purchasing agent of
the Cincinnati Hamilton & Dayton
railroad, died the other day in Cincin-
natl. She was the mother of seven chill
dren. Her five sons are ordained priests
and one of her two daughters is Sister
NJ. Annunciata of Notre Dame convent,
Reading. Q. The other remained at
home with her mother.
The sons are the Very Rev. Dean
William Hickey of st. Joseph's, Day
ton, O.. and Fathers Edward Hickey of
Middleton, John Hickey of Cummins-
vile, Charles Hickey of Dayton, and
George Hickey of Urbana. Fathers
Edward, William and George were the
celebrants of the solemn mass of requi-
EN-, and Fathers Charles and John were
the deaconS of honor to Archbishop
Moeller, who presided. In the sermon
it was remarked that the spectacle of
five sons officiating as priests at their
mothers funeral had never before been
seen in this country and seldom in the
world. -Four of the sons also acted as
pall-beaTers.
Mrs. Hickey visited Rome in 1895 and
the late Pope Leo XIII gave her a spe-
cial audience and assured her of the
great pleasure he felt in meeting the
mother of five priests, an experience he
had never had before.
Archbishop Moeller offered Sister An
nupciata a special dispensation to break
the cloister of the convent and attend
her mothers funeral, but she refused
thus to suspend even the spirit of her
community regulation, and remained in
prayer in the convent chapel
Mrs. Hickey was born in Cork, Ire
land, in 1884 and emigrated to Cincin-
natl with her mother three-years later.

It will be noticed by a perusal Of
the advertising booklet concerning
State lands recently sent out by Audi
tor Iverson that one inducement to
land seekers is that the lands offered
for sale by the State are all located
in organized towns, close to schools,
churches, wagon roads and railroads.
This is a very nice thing for the State
but it is a rank injustice to the pio-
neers who go out into the wilderness,
clear up lands adjoining those owned
by the State, build wagon roads,
schools and churches and organize
towns, all without assistance from
the State, and then have the State
reap the sole benefit from the increased
value of it's lands an increased value
that is made entirely by the work of
these pioneers Virginian.
The Virginian forgets that the re-
ceipts from the sales of State lands
are converted into fund the interest
of which is appropriated annually to
the different schools of the State. The
State may not contribute largely to
the building of roads, but as the
school fund is paying annual divi-
dends in the way of appointments
of about five dollars a year for each
scholar enrolled in the schools. and
this amount is increased in proper
tion to. the increase in the value of
State lands, it does not seem that the
Virginian's argument is we'll founded.

The law passed last winter allowing
fifty dollars to school districts which
employed teachers holding second

thing, as it will be an inducement to
them to cut out=Ezthe permit teacher.
While it sometimes happens that ex-
perienced and we'll qualified teachers
allow the examinations to pass with
out securing certificates, the majority
of permits are issued to those who
fail in one or two studies. The re-

State Supt. Olsen thinks that in
struction in the summer training
schools should be confined to "solid
subjects'' and says that music, draw
ing, physical culture and some other
branches do not come under that head.
He says: During as short a term
as four or six weeks efforts would be
wasted were too much attempted. while,
through intensive study Of one or two
subjects, the students may form the
habit Of striking bottom in studying,
and learn how to teach thoroughly.
Recitations should require two hours
preparation ON the. part of student,
and should approximate an hour in
length.''
