The Bishops Preference.

Bishop Joseph Wilmer of Louisiana ana
bishop Richard Wilmer of Alabama are
cousins and intimate friends, says the Ne"
York Tribune. In their travels IN ltaly one
summer the Bishop of Alabama was point
ing out with enthusiasm certain architec-
tural beauties. The Bishop Of louisiana
was bored. He said: IT'S all very nne'
Cousin Dick. but nevertheless, a rich field,
fragrant with the odor of new mown nay,
would please me better" And the Bisnop
OF Alabama replied: "Consin Joe, there
not an ass in all Italy that would not agree
with yOu."

The Pope and Peace.

The official organ of the Vatican The
Osservatore Romano, is publishing a series
of articles to show the right of the pope to
send delegate to the second peace con-
ference which Is soon TO assemble at The
Hague, at the request of the Car of Rus
sia. The paper denies that the pope's loss
OF temporal sovereignty precludes the right
of sending a repre5en tative TO discuss peace
and war, according TO the views of the holy
see, and says the nature of the papal office
is such to fttingly lead the mission of
an advocate of peace.

Church of Christ, which has already profit
ed so greatly in it's missionary work
through the bold and wide voyaging OF
the sailors. Surely the man of the sea
should be remembered often in prayer,
and aided morally and materially by the

in the lot of the seaman-senerosity and
svmpathetic help should be the responsive
offering of the landsman, who is put SO
constantly in the sailors debt.

while the omnibus conductor, who is also
peculiar to London, has the strongest oh

objection is simple. For the omnibus con-

silver as he can in exchange for hIs coppers
at his favorite public house. \ public house

Right Plan Of Action,

"The teachers try this plan and then that,
wasting valuable time, effort and material
in trying to hit upon the right line of ac-
ton. Their zeal which, If properly directed,
might-have been a power for good, some
times becomes a stumbling block. I have
myself attended the New York Training
School for Catechists and found 1t a great
benefit. The Catholic teachers of Washing
ton certainly should have such an instftu-
ton, and l trust that the federation plan
outlined will in time bear such fruit as this
We would thus be enabled to make the
Sunday school more attractive to teachers,
and with the teachers thoroughly aroused
and interested the attendance of pupils
would increase.
"A wider dissemination of scriptural
knowledge among teachers will, l am sure.
be of incalculable benefit and perhaps of
surprising Importance. Unfortunately chill
dren in number of Catholic churches have
a tendency Of becoming too big for the
Sunday school at from fourteen to sixteen
years of age and are content with attend
ance at mass. II the teachers work is
directed in a more interesting and instruc-
tive vein than the simple -catechetical les
son l am sure n greater good can be accom-
plished. And there is no surer way of ac-
complishing wholesome, practical results
than through organization and the ex-
change of fruitful IDEAS"

TEACHING TEACHERS
MOVEMENT IN ROMAN CATHOLIC
SUNDAY SCHOOLS GROWING.

Preparations are afoot to give new I'M
petus to a movement for teacher training
in the Roman Catholic Sunday schools of
this city. Rev. Thomas E. McGuigan, one
OF the assistant pastors of st. Patrick's
Church, is firm believer in the efficacy Of
Sunday school work, and since his connec-
ton with the parish has done much work In
stimulating interest in the Sunday school.
He has aimed to make the work attractive
both to pupils and teachers.
The teachers meet every month to dis
cuss the interests Of the Sunday school and
to adopt plans for the increase Of its eff
ciency Last year some special subjects in
sacred Scripture were studied during the
winter months, and occasionally papers
were read by the teachers.
This year Rev. DR.. John Fenelon of St.
Austin's College, Catholic University, has
come to the aid Of Father McGuigan, and is
delivering course OF lectures every other
tuesday evening in new Carroll Hall for
the benefit Of Sunday school teachers. His
topic is the Scriptures as they may be spe-
clally applied to Sunday school work.
DR.. Fenelon is said to combine experience
In parish work with a profound knowledge
of the sacred Scriptures. While pro-
lessor OF that branch at st. Joseph's Semi
nary, New York, he conducted a class for
the Sunday school teachers of New York
city. 1t is his intention to give informa-
ton on the Bible in accordance with the
latest scientific Investigations, together
with simple lesson on the life of the
Savior TO be conveyed to the children.
Thus the teachers are expected to be made
more conversant with the subject matter,
and at the same time will receive many sug-
gestions on the method of imparting knowl-
edge.
Announcement has already been made
that these lectures are open to teachers
from other Sunday schools than ST. Pat
rick's.
Sunday school superintendent Of this
denomination in speaking of the need Of a
training school or lyceum for teachers, said
recently:
MANY teachers start out full Of zeal, but
With the idea that no special training or
plan Is necessary. They go to the Sunday
school each week and do their very best to
teach the children their catechsm But
somehow everything does not go as smooth
ly as they thought 1t would. Francis will
not study, John will not come, and when
Oliver does come he makes things decidedly

be at hand. But there are precious few
signs Of any such sentiment.
The "senseless hullaballoo" over insur-
ance mismanagement is not allowed 20 az
feet those whom 1t exposes. Dinners and
balls are not complete If those individuals
are absent. Thus is the vulgar world re
buked. How futile and how delicious from
one point of view. how hopelessly discourag
ing from another! We shall never have -
really healthy social life until the question,
rs he rich?' is followed by the more IN
portant one, How came he so?'
