were celebrated, and at the S o'clock
mass the local members of the Knights
of Columbus attended in a body and
received Holy Communion. The chill

mass. and special music was given by
them. Ten o'clock mass was a high
mass. and the music at this time was
furnished by Miss Malone's choir. Rev.
Father GalIigan delivered two ser
mons, and then warmly thanked
the generous parishioners for so kindly
remembering ST. Mary's church in the
way of giving so many beautiful
flowers, which were used in decorating
the affairs today, and he assured them
that their reward would be in heaven.

With all the beauty of the ritual, the
services of Holy Week were most i'm
pressive as carried out at ST. Joseph's
Palm Sunday. The Passion was read
in Latin and in English and an elo-
quent discourse insured the devotion
of the hearers. The repository on Holy
Thursday was a credit to the good la
dies of the Altar society, who showed
the excellent taste, their willing hands
and their loving hearts in preparing so
exquisite resting place for the Cog
love. The children who took part n the
procession showed in every movement
the excellent training they had re-
ceived, while the acolytes were models
of reverence. Most solemn were the
services of Good Friday, yet

ST. ANsELM OF AosTA.
Coming Celebration of the Eiqhth
Centenary of One of the Fairest
Flowers of the RenedictiYe Order.

On the 2lst@of April eight centuries
VIII have passed by since the death of
st. Anselm of Aosta. and in MANY
places the Christian world is preparing
TO celebrate with joy the memory of so
lllustr1ouS a saint. At st. Anselms
| The international college of the Bene-
dictines in Rome. it has been arranged
That the centenary shall be celebrated
on four consecutive days, during which
several cardinals and bishops together
With the abbot primate of the Benedic-
tines, will preside at the functions.
whilst 1llustrious orators of the order
VIII address the faithful on the glories
and virtues of the saint
81. Anselm is the father of that
scholastic theology which in harmony
with philosophy brings revealed truth
as far as possible within reach of hu-
man reason. On account of this new
direction given the theology and the
profound learning manifested in his
writings, St. AnSlem rightly occupies q
conspicuous position among the lights
OF the church, and is deservedly hon
ored with the title of doctor. But this
great saint not only shines as a bright
star in the intellectual armament. but
he is also distinguished for the activity
and energy which he displayed in his
pastoral work. AS Archbishop OF can
terbury he forced the king of England
to respect the liberty of the church. All
the Council of Bari he fought with
great success against the errors of the
Greek schismatics, and throughout the
whole of his life he always showed
himself most Jealous for the preserva-
ton of monastic discipline and for the
purity and holiness of the clergy. His
life. an ever fruitful source to mankind
of further culture and development, Is
one of the fairest flowers of Christiani-
ty and of the Benedictine Order. With
good reason the church and the sons
of st. Benedict, encouraged by the Holy
Father himself are eXerting them
selves to show every possible honor to
so great a saint

Bearing Fruit.

The widespread agitation against the
abuses which have crept into the NOV
ing pictures is bearing fruit. No BUSH
ness can stand up against public senti-
ment founded on reason and morality.
Under the stress of the many protests,
the attendance at these shows has re-
Gently been falling off and, as the ten
dency of a fad is at best gradually to
disappear and return only at intervals.
managers and manufacturers of the
films have taken alarm and are ready
to regulate their business according to
the details of common sense and ordi-
nary decency. Now, not only is there
no harm in moving pictures of them
selves, but they may readily be made
the vehicle of much useful instruction,
besides the amusement they afford.
There is no desire on the part of the
protesting public to hamper or ruin a
legitimate business. 1t is only the
abuses, and these evidently, which have
aroused the public Many of the pic
lures shown were injurious to the indi-
viduaI, especially to the children, and
TO society in general. The elimination
of such pictures the people demand,
and those financially interested are wise
in listening to the public outcry. We
congratulate the Holy Name societies
and the Catholic Federation on the good
work they have done by protesting
against unfit moving pictures and on
the result of their protest. No COM
munity wants the unclean, the abnor-
NAL the irreligious. and all that is
necessary TO extirpate them is strong
reasonable protest.-The Monitor New

Sees the Necessity.

On last Sunday from his pulpit one
of the most energetic. progressive and
up-to-date priests of this city urged
his congregation to subscribe for Cath
Ole papers. He announced that a COM
mittee appointed by him would visit
the houses of his parishioners to take
a census of those who take Catholic
papers and those who do not. The priest
realizes the necessity of Catholic
paper in Catholic homes, and is desir
Gus that every family in his parish take
Catholic periodical of some kind to
counterfeit the influence of the daily
papers, which are almost exclusively
devoted to secular news and frequently
contain matter detrimental to the faith
and morals of Catholic readers, espe
cially the young, whose minds are in
formative stage and susceptible of be-
ing easily influenced by what they read

Her Sweet Spirit.

Rev. Alvah Doran, who was formerly
a Protestant Episcopal minister in Phil
adelphia, and who is now a Catholic
priest. told a crowded congregation in
Washington, D. c., last Sunday night
why he had become a convert. In the
course of his address he said: Il have
not one word of abuse for the denomi-
nation that 1 quit, and / have only love
for all the friends / left behind" That
is the sweet spirit that the Catholic
church cultivates in her members. She
does not want to hear calumnies con-
corning her neighbors mad has no well
come for hatred. She accepts the pro-
verb that lit is an i'll bird that fouls
its own nest. Catholic Columbian.

BIushing Said to Denote intellect.

An eminent English medical psychol-
ogist has recently declared that it re-
quires brains to blush, that the ability
TO blush is in direct ratio TO mental
alertness. and that blushing is an
achievement of which every one should
be proud. for it is a positive sign of an
active brain.
Idiots cannot blush, and neither can
animals. Similarly infants do not blush,
although they learn TO do so at an
early age, just as soon, in fact, as the
brain begins to exercise it's higher
functions. Moreover, the blush cannot
be caused by any physical means; it is
the mind which must be affected.
Aside from the fact that blushing has
its origin in the mind, it's most striking
popularity is that it is, with rare ex-
ceptions, confined to the face, ears and
neck
While the whole body may tingle with
heat, there are few known cases where
the actual reddening of the skin ex-
tended further than the collar bones or
the shoulder blades.
According to Darwin and Sir James
Paget, our personal appearance and not
our moral conduct is the fundamental
element in blushing. 1t all started with
the wish to be admired, in the mere
thinking of what other people thought
of us
In the early stages of civilization peo-
pie we're judged more for their physi-
cal beauty than for their moral con-
duct, and the habit of blushing arose
from the fear of blame or disapuroval
on that account
Then, as the race progressed. and
moral and intellectual qualities became
more and more to be valued, the fear of
blame or disapproval became, as it
were, grated on to the other and sim
pier fear. and came to express itself, by
mental association, in the same way.
As our ideals became more complex.
and we kept adding to our reasons for
blushing, we We're not able to change
our physical makeup, and continued to
blush in the same old way for all the
new causes.
This brings us to the difference be-
tween the flush of anger and the true
blush. AS anger is a mental state in
cited from without, so the mental con-
fusion which shows itself in the blush
originates within us.
We have seen how bluslling origin
ated in an anxiety about our personal
appearance. Now, our chief concern in
this regard has always been the face,
the natural seat of personal attractive
ness.
Therefore, the first thought upon
meeting those whom we desire to please
was of our faces; and, if, for any reason
we suspected that our faces did not
please, our minds were naturally con-
centrated upon the defect there
Shyness, modesty, shame-all have
their foundation in the primitive love of
and the blush of the girl
who meets her lover is, after all, only
1 sublime sort of personal vanity, cues

IrNWORInIINESS


To be. in the world yet not of the
world, Is program of Catholic life hard
TO understand, and harder to practice.
For the world is pleasant enemy, and
its spirit manifold; and we are prone to
think that worldliness is hardly blame
worthy in laymen. Yet nothing can be
more false.
Worldliness is the approaching things
as they appeal to our passions and it
rests on the assumption that this pres
ent life is the end for which we were
made. Unworldliness is seeing things
as God sees them: and it is based on
the belief that the only reason why we
are in this world is to get ready for the
next. 1t remembers that Jesus was an
artisan, and Mary the spouse of a car
penter, and st. Paul a tentmaker; and
that not merely to monks and nuns but
also to laymen Christ said: Seek We
first the kingdom of God and his jus
tice"
Unworldliness does not mean that we
give up all amusement, but it does
mean that we keep our pleasures with
in bounds; and that we do not make
them ends, but means to serve God bet
ter Again, we are worldly or unworld-
ly not merely by what we do or avoid
Two men may live side by side the
same external life, with the same occu-
patton. the same pleasures, the same
family circle; yet one be wholly world
ly, and the other wholly unworldly.
Where is the difference? In their mo-
tives. The worldly man lives for this
world alone, the unworldly for God and
the next.
To avoid worldliness, therefore, we
need courage; we need faith, to show us
the shadows that surround us; we need
hope, to tell us of our everlasting in
heTitanCe: we need charity to unite US
TO God; we need the sacrament of faith
and hope and charity, the Holy Euchar-
ist.

The party then came TO Dublin,
where a great demonstration was held

mission may succeed in d,ssolving the
