The GENERAL INTENTION
Recommended by His Holiness,
Plus x.
Parish Priests,
Parish Priests.

The Church teaches us by her exam
IIe to pray for those whom God has in
trusted with the welfare Of our souls
LAY after day she places the names of
our Holy Father and Of our Bishop in
the mouth Of her minister at the most
solemn part of the mass. But these
olgnitaries are so highly elevated above
me ordinary Christian that prayer for
lhepl IS felt as a duty rather than =
comfort There are, however priests
VINO are ordained by Jesus Chris to
some INTO immediate contact with the
i'tle and lowly ones of his flock; hey
are responsible to God for the souls of
lhelr parish or their district. they are
our Parish Priests They know us. and
We know them; prayer for them is not
merely duty but also a pleasure.
1t is a duty and q pleasure to pray
LOT our Parish Priests; but it also a
most important apostolic work AS as
socrates of the apostleship af prayer
we are faithful TO our various duties
as matter Of course: but at the same
1lme we are always eagerly looking for
the apostolic tendency in whatever ouF
present duties may be. The old pro-
Nelb says: Like priests. like people"
Here is the apostolic drift of our duty
OF praying for the Parish Priests. If
our prayer sanctifies an ordinary
Christian soul it does a great and noble
Work indeed: but if it sanctifios the
soul of a Parish Priest. it does i'm
lneasura5ly more because it uplifts ali
The souls under the care Of the Parish
Priest. Like priest. like people
1t is a pleasure and a duty and a
most important apostolic work to pray
Tor the Parish Priests Our Holy
Father places this general intention be-
lore the associates Of the apostleship
for this month in order to remind them
that they can do more than merely
pray for the Priests They can assist
their Priests in many ways; they can
increase their influence by showing
them public respect. by speaking well
of them, Ey bringing them into con-
tact with the black sheep of the pa
11sh. by contributing their own little
mite TO the collections taken up for the
benefit Of the church or of other charit-
aele purposes. This kind of apostolic |
work ought to be very dear TO US, be- |
cause charity begins at home.

a Deadly Habit.

A ault-findingS criticising habit is IA

strange growth quicker than a tend
eucy TO hunt for flaws. to rejoice in the
un!ovely, like a hog which always has
his nose in the mud and rarely looks

always looking for something to crftf-

are always suspicious, who invariably
look at the worst side of others. are
but giving the world a picture of them

The disposition to see the worst in
stead of the best grows on one very
rapidly. until it ultimately strangies
all that is beautiful and brushes out all
that is good in himself. No matter how
many times your confidence has been
betrayed, do not allow yourself to sour.

SUDDEN DEATH OF MRS. o'BRIEN
Her Loss Great One to Family and
Society.

The same beautiful faith that had
sveetened existence and made Their
everyday lives an edification to their
fellow Christians was the power that
upheld in the hour of anguish the be-
reaved husband and family of Mrs
O'Brien. who died Monday. Feb. Is
after but three days illness. During her
short residence in Ogden she proved
herself a devoted member of st. Jo-
seph's congregation, jealous in the ad-
vancement of all that pertained to re-
ligion and ever active in works of cha
rity. Coming to this state from Iowa,
she needed no introduction to the Cath
Ollie circle of our little town. Her
Christian life. her beautifully trained.
happy-hearted children and her admir-
able domestic virtues recommended her
as a model wife. a self-sacrifcing, de-
voted mother true Woman-the life
and spirit of her happy little home. to-
day Swallowed by one OF the greatest
SORROWS a family can experience.
Though stricken in health and vigOr.
she went, we feel sure. prepared TO
meet her Cod From that blest abode,
may she obtain comfort for the lonely
companion of Lies brighter days. the
devoted husband\whose sorrow can be
best estimated by those who realize the
domestic bliss of two whom God had
truly Joined together.
How many times in the years to come
will the echo of that loving mothers
voice recall to her children the precious
counsels and powerful example of past
happy days. May the recollection in
SpiTe in their souls the devotion that
ever burned in hers, making her girls

A HAPPY FAMILY.
Two Are Priests, Three Are Nuns,
and Two Are Novices.

Voluntarily giving up all their affec-
tions. their home ties and friendships
TWO bright and pretty girls of Column

Schneider, daughters of John Schnei-
der jeweler. recently left their home
for the Notre Dame convent in Gin
| cinnati. where they will become nov
ices with a view of taking the final
VOWS of the order after they have com
pleted their novitiate.
1t is a remarkable fact that five
members of the family of Mr. and Mrs.
John Schneider are already in religious
work, two being priests and three nuns

fhe Catholic chuFssTi<< at Ironton, was

the other at a private hospital, where
she assists in looking after the infirm

Royal Gift of Cheer.

A sunny temper is a gift of heaven
and the mortal so endowed is thrice
blessed indeed, as is everyone with
whom she comes in contact
She diffuses sunshine and cheer as
the sun diffuses light. and does it as
naturally as that luminary shines.
But not every one is so happily en-
lowed. The world is measurably full of
people who were born without the gold
spoon of sweet disposition. and yet they
manage to dispense a satisfactory por-
ton of cheer among their associates. 1t
is the rising above temperament that
counts-the something finer than mere
temperamental eheerfulness that makes
the hopeful SOUL
Christianity wants nothing so much
in the world as sunny people. and the
old are hungrier for love than for
bread. and the oil of Joy is very cheap
and if you can help the poor on with a
garment of praise it will be better for
them than blankets.

Do you appreciate and make the
most of your opportunities to advance
the Catholic faith? Dc you realize the
laity have a mission? Why are you
not like the Michigan farmer in Father
Elliott's book, who challenged a Prot
estant minister to prove his attacks
upon the church and frightened him
into silence? Or why aren't you like
the Catholic printer mentioned in Dr..
O'Gorman's history Of the American
Church? The man worked in an office
where his religion was constant
source of ridicule and the butt of
jokes. The Catholic. however. was
able to explain and defend his belief
and turn. the laugh, and so impressed

may not have exceptional opportunities
to spread the faith. Do you make good
use of such as you have? Are the Prot
estants who come in contact With you
any the better for it?

French Barbarity.

The warfare which the French gov
crnment is carrying on is now revealed
to all men as a deliberately planned
cam paien against God. 1t is clear that
the governments proceedings were all
arranged long ago in cold blood. The
atheists have of set purpose worked TO
produce religious cataclysm. They
have tried to strange Catholic organi-
cation in the thirty-siX thousand COM
munes of France; have cast out the
bishops from their official residences
and the cures from their parochiai
Iouses: have taken their churches from
the faithful: have confiscated all ,he
