Plus Z and School Sports.

FROM the Tablet.
Until now nobody ever dreamt that the
holy father himself would one day become
the patron Of athletic sports in Italy. Ital-
ian boys were supposed to have no zest for
open air games. and Italian parents were
and are often STILL morbidly apprehensive
of the chills and fevers deemed inseparabIe
from violent exercise.
Within the last decade, however, a lew
spirit seems to have entered into the youth
of Italy, and many Catholic colleges espe-
cially those conducted by the Jesuits, have
gone in heartily for athletic sports In ad-
dftion Catholic athletic clubs have sprung
up all over 1taly-seven of the most -four
ishing Of them belonging to Rome The
English, American, Irish and Scotch stu
dents have always played cricket or foot
ball or base ball. but 1t Is only within the
last few years that their example has been
followed by their colleagues of other ma
tionalities. 1t Is even whispered that one of
the most eminent and busy members Of the
Sacred College has been often observed
welding the golf sticks over the slopes
of Pamphill
However that may be, 1t is certain that
the holy father himself has shown the
create interest in the athletic games OF
the young Romans; he has not only wit
messed exhibitions of them in the Vatican,
but has personally invited some of the car
dinals to share In his enjoyment. He is
credited rightly or wrongly, with saying:
''PhySlcai exercise is GOOD TOT the DOQy, Out
it is even better for the SOUL.
For some time past there has been
movement afeot to have a reunion of all
the Catholic athletic clubs throughout
Italy The holy father was asked to APP
prove the idea, and he not only approved.
but recommended that the meeting be held
in the Vatican grounds, and consented to be
the chief patron of the gathering. There
are to be high jumping and long jumping,
bicycle races, walking races, running races,
-you-please races, varying from 100
kilometers to ten; some of them will take
Place in the-Vatican gardens, others In the
riding shed of the Noble Guards, others In
the great hall of the Belvedere; the holy
father has given 200 gold and silver medals
for prizes, and these will be increased by
other prizes offered by the associations.
The competitors will certainly run q long
way into the hundreds, for over 300 clubs
have sent in their adhesion. and these will
he still further augmented before sSeptem-
Der 10, when the entries close. The great
gathering is likely to give powerful slim
illus to athletic sports throughout Italy,
and Plus x may be known In history not
only as the codifier of canon law, but as the
patron of manly games.

Nor for Moral Stimulant.
From the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
French writer says that the japanese
have proflted only by the material progress
OF Europe. not by its moral elevation. They
show their lack of moral beauty. ii seems,
by their failure to appreciate Pierre Lott. a
Japanese critic is very severe on the au-
thor OF Madame Chrysantheme. ITO de-
scribe such a man, incarnate demon is the
only expression that Is true. exact. fitting
and scientific. He has the gross nature of
Caliban and the deformed, decrepit dis
eased. impotent intellect OF Mephistopheles.
If l were asked TO name the book which
exhibits European civilization in its most
degraded form. should not hesitate to say
Madame Chrysantheme' There could not
be sadder sign of the moral baseness in
the educated classes OF Europe than the
popularity of this romance" This is rather
steep; but 1t must be admitted that we do
not go to Pierre Lott for moral stimulant.

The Original st. Leger.
From the London Chronicle.


The original st. Leger, from the racing
point of view, was Col Anthony st. Leger
Of Parkhill, near Dencaster who founded
today's great race in 1776-four years be-
fore the first Derby. But there were other
original ST. Legers before him who would
be much astonished at the fame of their
name on this particular day. There was
the first St. Leger established in England,
Robert, whom tradition credits not only
with having come over with the conqueror
from Caen. but with having supported WILL
lam with his hand as he landed. Four hum
dred years earlier lived the very first st.
Leger or Leodegarius, a Frenchman of
noble birth and great sanctity, who became
bishop of Antrim and had his eyes put out
and was eventually murdered in the course
of the struggles that centered around the
French throne of those days. After him
many churches and towns and the family
of Robert and Anthony were named.
