AN INEVITABLE CONSEQUENCE

A certain DR.. Crapsey who is a de-
posed Episcopalian minister, stated in
lecture in Boston that at the present
rate OF it's disintegration Professionalism
will be dead in this country by the end
of the present century. According to
him there are 60,000,00O people in
America who do not go to church. The
great tendency of the present, he says,
is away from all churches.
DR.. Crapsey is probably over stating
the case, but considering his general
proposition that Professionalism is dis
migrating he is stating trusm. The
fundamental principle of Professionalism
is the individual Interpretation of the
Bible. If men are free to read into
the scriptures anything their fancies
suggest is it strange that creeds should
increase and multiply? Men will get
ideas outside the Bible and then 40
to the Bible for supporting evidence,
for as the Bard of Avon wrote the devil
can quote scriptures to his purpose.
The principle of the individual in
depreciation OF the Bible. which. by the
way, is about as sensible as would be
the proposition that all men are
equally competent to diagnose and
treat disease to interpret the law of
the land and to superintend the con-
struction of sky scrapers, is the fatal
principle of Professionalism. II all men
are free to interpret the Bible there
must be general disagreement. If there
is general disagreement there can be
no certain rule of faith and conse-
quently no stability.
Professionalism disintegrates because.
instead OF having a principle that will
unity it, it is founded on a principle
that makes disintegration inevitable.

CLOSING EXERCISES
Of Holy Angels Academy to Take
Place This Afternoon.


Holy Angels Academy, SAB Fourth
street north, will close one of the
most successful years in the history
of this we'll known institution this
afternoon when the graduating exer-
cises will take place. The enrolment
of boarders, day scholars and music
pupils this year noticeably surpasses
the enrolment of former years, while
the work done by the students in both
the school and the music department
shows high grade of scholarship
and an application and ability of more
than medium order. Early in the
spring, in order to leave the last week
of the term free for the closing exer-
cises, the members of the music
classes gave their annual recitals. the
advanced pupils being heard on April
8, and the intermediate pupils on May
IS. Both divisions acquitted them
selves very creditably and reflected
honor on their training.
At 3 o'clock this afternoon sixteen
girls will graduate from the Eighth
grade of the Academy. Following is

COERCION BY THE MAJORITY.

Lloyd Georges insurance bill is at
present the center of attention in
British politics. It is considered by
many statesmen as the most ambitious
attempt ever made to grapple with
social problems. If it is passed it
will be far reaching in it's effect. 1t is
striking example of how the reac-
ton from coercion by the King has
gone so far that now it is being re-
placed by coercion by the majority.
Spencer once said that the great SUI
prostitution Of the past was the divine
right of Kings to rule; now it is
divine right of Parliament. At any
rate the majority is recognized as
possessing an unlimited right to leg
islate in the interest of the whole
people with the result that the rights
which the Individual once claimed as
natural and sacred are no longer
conceded to be such by Parliament.
With the advance of civilization and
the concentration Of population in
large centers and with the growing
completely of institutions the need Of
state regulation has increased decade
by decade until what would be con-
sidered an infringement on the rights
of the individual a half a century ago
are today recognized as just and nee
essary. Lloyd-Georges insurance bill
undertakes to compel the individual to
provide for his own welfare. If the
majority favor it, and it is looked
upon favorably by thoughtful and con-
servative men, it will become law and
the individual will have to make GER
tain provisions for self protection in
case of sickness and accident whether
he likes 1t or not. Without question:
ing the wisdom of Lloyd-George's In
surance Bill or any other bill which
aims to make provision in the in

Iowa Temperance Convention,

The tenth annual convention of the
Iowa Catholic Total Abstinence union
held in Clinton, Ia, May 80, was pro-
nounced by scores of visitors to be one
of the most successful ever held in
the state, il not, indeed, the best state
meeting the temperance workers of
Iowa ever held.
The entire day was crowded with
work. From the morning business
session, after which all the visitors
and delegates attended Mass at st.
Mary's church, to the big temperance
rally in the Clinton theater, which
closed the days events, every minute
was pleasantly and profitably occupied
by the delegates from the various So
cieties of the state; and the visitors
left Monday night and Tuesday morn
ing feeling that their one day visit
in Clinton was day of achievement.
The results will be an added impetus
to their work in the state.
The days order of exercises opened
with a solemn High Mass at St.
Mary's church. There was a large
congregation present, and an eloquent
sermon was preached by Rev. W. j.
McNamee of Joliet.

The pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, Northumberland, Penn. declares
that Eve was not tempted by the devil
because there is none. 1t is very con-
venient to dispense with the devil and
hell and purgatory when one wants to
be bound by no commandments. In
fact men succeed in convincing them
selves that their happiness will be in
creased by committing robberies and
even murders, and the fatal self de
fusion goes on in the face of the sad
consequences. This divine's attempt
to rule out the existence of the devil
is only another instance Of how men
try to justify their liberties by de-
caring void the reasons why they
should do otherwise.

the. next election Some of the lead
ing men in Mexico are reported to be
giving their support to the movement
with the end in view of electing the
party candidates The new organiza-
ton is to be known as the Catholic
National party.f 1t is to favor demo-
craic government, free suffrage, free
speech and freedom of the press as
well as full religious liberty of all citi-
zens.
Whether it is advisable for even a
country as Catholic as Mexico to carry
religion into politics is doubtful
question. In the first place, the prin-
ciples OF democratic government are
broad and general enough to be COM
patible with any creed. This is suffi-
GENTLY proven by the fact that men do
not divide in politics along religious
lines In our own country there are
Catholics who are Democrats and
Catholics who are Republicans and
even Catholics who profess a mild
form OF Socialism, though the latter,
thank God, are few. But why should
party call itself Catholic party
when its principles may appeal with
equal force to Christians of all de-
nominations? There doubtless will be
Catholics who will not accept it's prin-
ciples and nom Catholics who would
be more inclined to join it's ranks if
it bore a different name.
But aside from the fact that the
principles OF true democratic govern
ment are nothing more nor less than
the dictates Of right reason and that
these principles are most effectively
realized when dissociated from class
and creed, there is another reason
why religion and politics should re-
main separate. When Il party calls
itself d religious party the Church
must stand sponsor, in the eyes of its
critics at least, for all it's shortcom-
ings. If the men it puts in power
prove false to their trust those who
are out of sympathy with Catholicity
will point to Rome" as the real cause
Now the Church can better get along
without the credit that will accrue to
it through the work of Il political
parry than to run the risk of being held
up to ridicule for the failure of a few
weak men in office the faint of whose
failures it would have to bear.
The principle Of associating religion
and politics is wrong. There is no
poilt on which prejudces are more
easily awakened than in matters of
religion. The governing of many
creeds by a party bearing the name of
one particular creed must inevitably
awaken religious animosities.

SUGGESTIONS TO ADVERTISERS

Here are a few reasons why adver-
tisers should make use of space In
Catholic papers:
l. The Catholic paper is the family
paper. 1t is read by every member Of
the household. .. It's readers have
absolute faith in it, and, consequently,
in its advertisers 3. The managers
of Catholic papers supervise their adj
vertising columns and know the MEM
bers of the firms with whom they
deal. 4. They hold themselves person.
ally responsible for what goes in their
papers and will not run advertisements
, about which they are doubtful. In this
way their readers are seldom If ever
deceived. S. The Catholic paper cir
culates among people who have fixed
residences and who are therefore In
terested in the bargains advertisers
have to offer. s. The Catholic paper
comes but once a week and is taken
up and read whenever leisure permits,
while the average reader Of the big
daily glances through the head lines
for news that interest him and never
notices any advertisements, except
perhaps the full or half-page displays.
And in few hours the paper is
thrown aside for another. Z. The
amount of advertising in Catholic
papers is small, and the probability Of
its being read is proportionately large
s. The cost of advertising in the Cath
Ollie paper is low considering the
chances the advertiser has of reach
ing interested readers 9. The Catho-
lie paper makes Its appeal to the best
members Of all classes of society. TO-
1t combines the conditions which insure
the largest possible return on an in
vestment for advertising space.
