THE GENERAL INTENTION FOR
NOVEMBER.
Recommended by His Holiness,
Plus K,
ACCEPTANCE OF SUFFERING.

ACCEF ANSG Or SUR ERiNS,
The presence of suffering on the
earth began in Eden Pain. toll,
death. this was the threefold punish
ment sent by God for the first sin. But
while suffering was inflicted by God as
a curse, it may be changed into a
blessing; for though man cannot es-
cape its all-pervading influence, yet he
can so use life's ills that they will
bring him nearer to that God from
whom he turned away by sin.
BY accepting the pains and disap-
pointment which befall US and by sub
hitting our will to Gods in all our trials
we prove the sincerity of our sorrow
for past offenses. Many of our suffer
ings are sent as chistisements: we sin
easily. and lightly forget it. But God
never forgets; and it is because He
loves US that He gives us an opportu-
nifty to atone.
Besides this power of satisfaction.
acceptance of suffering wins us many
2races. 1t makes US Gods chosen
friends. 1t protects us from the allure
ments of the world and the temptations
which accompany unmiXed prosperity.
1t detaches our hearts from the things
Of earth. Most of all, it makes us like
to Christ, the Man of Sorrows. The
shadow of the cross was over His life
from Bethlehem to Calvary, and His
example took from suffering its char
acter Of evil. and made it the badge of
His love. 1t became a grecious gift,
offered most of Gods hottest Saints.
And such viii it be for us. if we accept
it in union with the sufferings of Jesus.
But to do this is the work of grace,
and needs the help of prayer-prayer
that we may have strength to drink
the chalice Of suffering with Christ,
and say Thy will be done

Judge Lindsay says: Il have been in
the Juvenile court nearly ten years, and
in that time 1 have had to deal with
thousands and thousands of boys who
have disgraced themselves and their
parents and have brought sorrow and
misery into theri lives; and I do not
know of any one habit that is more re-
sponsible for the troubles of these boys
than the vile cigarette habit" Strong
and expert testimony this. Isn't it
worth thinking about?

Cardinal Stopped the Fiqht.

A story that shows boy nature as it
is, comes in the press dispatches from
Baltimore
Two newsboys were engaged in a
rough and tumble fight Saturday after
noon on Charles street, near Cardinal
Gibbons home. The pugilists were
watched by group of men and boys, as
well as many women who were shop
ping. No one seemed inclined to in
terfere.
The cardinals attention was aroused
by the disturbance. Taking in the stu
alton. he made his way through the
crowd. Reaching the boys, the cardinal
laid his hand upon a shoulder of one of
the lads, who turned to become an ag-
gressor at the interruption. One look
into the face of the cardinal caused the
urchin to pull off his cap. AS he did
so the cardinal said in kindly tones:
MY. son, wait until you have grown
to be man before you indulge in man
ly sports
The next minute both boys had
turned and were scampering down the.
street in opposite directions. The car
dinal continued his stroll, smiling over
his success as peacemaker.

Anarchy. .

The recent execution of the miscreant,
Ferrer, demonstrated the existence of
anarchists in every country of the civ
ilized world. They crawled out from
their dark corners; they spewed out
their vile doctrines; they threw here
and there a cowardly bomb and now
they have shrunk back into their denS,
growing and kissing as they go, with
barred teeth cleaning in the darkness
like tigers driven from their prey. They
will come out again when some other
bomb carries death and destruction to
rejoice and renew their deadly compact
or when another Ferrer is trapped in
his dastardly acts and pays the pen
atty thereof
1t has Teen more than apparent that
anarchy turks in the Latin nations
more than any other. And Italy holds
bad pre-eminence. This is the result
of the modern schools" of which Fer
rer was the Spanish champion This
spirit of anarchy is begotten in the
Goddess and irreligious schools. God is
the keystone of the arch of order and
government; when the keystone is !ous-
ened or subtracted, the arch is weak
ened and destroyed. All that remains
is for it to fall. The legitimate out
CoIle VI tlle pdHlsLllleHl VI GOu IFOHl
the schools is anarchy in every order
Anarchy is the last roll-call of infidel-
ity
What else then might we expect from
the volatile and impetuous Latin races
torn from the guidance and care OF re-
ligion, than an onward rush into the
excuses of radicalism and an
archy? The first blow is aimed at
the Church which bravely struggles TO
extricate and save her children from
the fate which threatens them; BUT the
next blow will fall upon the traitor
governments which have robbed the
Church of her power and rights. Pos
sibly for these nations, final anarchy
will be Gods publication process

The Church in America.

| The New York Sun, secular daily,
| has walked to a realization of the impor-
| lance of the Catholic church in America.
Last Sunday it published an article
comparing the United States as a Cath
Ollie country with various European
| lands. Its comparison is altogether IA
vorable to the United States. 1t says:
In less than a century the land of
William Penn has become the fourth
Catholic power in the world from the
point of view of numbers, being sur
passed only by France, Austria and
Italy. while it surpasses even these
countries if we take into consideration
the loyalty of the faithful, their gen.
erosity and their progressiveness.
The Catholic church in the United
States, although remaining Roman, has
a thoroughly American character of en-
terprise, of expansion and of grandeur,
owing to the vastness of its institutions
and the splendor of its buildings, which
will soon rival in size and artistic beau
ty the historical cathedrals of the Old
World, so that before long to the latter
will only remain the superiority coming
from centuries of tradition. Thus the
balance will be maintained; the history
in Europe, the vigor of modern genius
in America.
l.
tate these affirmations they might seem
exaggerations, but facts are undenia-
BILE. Let us take, for instance, New
York, a diocese founded a century ago
by the rescript of Plus VII appointing
Father Luke Concannon, an Irish Do
minican, as the first bishop, who, how
ever, never reached his post, as he died
suddenly after his conservation in
Rome Is it possible in our time to
imagine New York's having as its only
Catholic church st. Peters on Barclay
street? It was only in 1909 that the cor
nerstone was laid of st. Patrick's cathe-
dral on Mott street, which cost $4,000,
sum then enormous, though it is a
mere mite compared with the millions
spent on the new cathedral Of st. Pat
rick on Fifth avenue, and on the over
500 churches which hae since been
erected in the archdiocese, besides
about 200 chapels.
New York today is the strongest
Catholic city in the world, though
Paris may have more people baptized
into the church, or there may be numer-
ically more in Vienna; but neither Paris
nor Vienna, nor Rome itself. can boast
such a truly devout Catholic population
at once so prosperous, intelligent and
active

Lords in the Past

A correspondent sends to the Court
Circular an interesting account of the
early history of the famous M. c. c. in
closure and its frequenters in bygone
days. One was a Mr.. Ward, We'll
known city magnate and smart bust
nessman. Being shrewd follower OF
the game, he used, when watching
matches. as the various batsmen went
in to bat, to offer EGO to f25 to any one
who would in return give him fl for
every run scored by the man at the
wicket AS the average runs scored
then was about 80 apiece in the big fix
lures the net gain was generally sub
stantial one. This financial sportsman
hearing a report that the ground was
for sale, asked Lord, the original pro-
prietor, what he would take for it,
"f5 ,000," was the prompt reply. Done"
said Ward: and Immediately a check for
f5 900 changed hands. and the ground,
after the necessary preliminaries, it's
owner.

The Number Thirteen

Does the number Is influence ca
reer in the army? is question asked
by a Paris contemporary, impelled by
the fact that NJ. Oudin appears thir-
teenth in the navy list at st. Cyr. He
has just been gazettcd as a sublieu-
tenant in a cavalry regiment, declares
the London Globe. Thirteen is not
looked upon as an unlucky number at
st. Cyr, for among those who have
stood thirteenth in the list are Marshal
MacMalon in 1925. General Bourbaki
held the same place nine years later.
General Laveaucoupet, one of the
heroes at Metz in 1870. was another
13. Among the living generals is
General Balloud, who left in 1868, and
has SINCE had brilliant career.
