RELIGION AND CHEER.

Rev. Henry Blanchot, G. S. Sp., of
Detroit, gave a happy expression to
a thought that is too often smothered
when he said: "a great drawback
in many supposedly Christian house.
holds is the absence of cheerful
religious tone. Devout persons seem
to think THAT religion must figure
prominently In everything. Religion
need not be so paraded. It was given
as joy and strength to man in his
sorrows and temptations, but to force
it always upon people is to create
a disgust for it, as for. a medicinal
drauSht, and leads to it's being ig-
nored or entirely rejected. The ever
prevailing presence of religion, con-
stantly set to be dwelt upon, causes
a revulsion Of feeling in the mind of
the young and the impressionable,
who are apt to become wary of what
is made to seem an intolerable bur-
den. Thus the very end of religion
is defeated and the religious instincts
dwarfed or destroyed -
There is nothing in the world more
contagious than cheer. Laugh and
the world laughs with you, weep and
you weep alone" And why should
not those who practice their religion
be cheerful? Is not being religious
rather a reason why one should be
cheerful? The religion which causes
people to have long, aching counten-
ances is only in the system and not
of it. 1t is like the medicine that is
being drunk, it is bitter until it is
assimilated. But once it gets into the
blood it will, if it was wisely pre-
scribed, add tone to the system and
give the aenemic the flush of health.
The trouble with some grave re-
ligious people is that their religion
is only a veneer which they are
afraid will not pass for the genuine.
But most often the difficulty is with
the prescription. There are many
doctors but only one right prescrip-
ton. Those who get the wrong one
cannot expect to assimilate it and
when 1t does get into the blood it
cannot accomplish much.

story of the South, "The White Slave"
Three decades have elapsed since
BARLEY Campbell wrote and produced
1.-THE White Slave" at the old Four
teenth Street theater in New York
Seven years ago it was retired by the
in the midst of great
prosperity, the idea being to give time
for the growth of another generation
of play-goers. The present season
seemed propitious for revival: con-
sequently a most sumptuous and spec
tacular production was provided for
the old time favorite with which the
tour of 1911-12 was inaugurated at
Pittsburg, the rth-place of the gifted
author, on August 9Th. Since that time
it has been greeted by capacity audi
ences in every city visited.

In reply to the charge that the
Encyclopedia Britannica is anli-Cath
Ole, Mr.. Hugh Chisholm, editor Of
the new edition, says:
Everyone knows that the Ency-
clopedia Britannica is not itself a
Catholic work. England is not Ro-
man Catholic country, and Catholics,
whether in - America or elsewhere,
cannot reasonably suppose that they
will find their point of view dominat-
ing the theological articles of such
work"
We did not suppose it was the pur-
pose of the Encyclopedia Britannica
to represent any particular point of
view. Its function is, or, to be more
correct, should be, to give facts as
they are, and not distort them to
harmonic with point of view. Cath
olics are criticiZing the Encyclopedia
Britannica not because it is not
Catholic, but because it is anti-Cath-
Olic.

canada's Population 100000.

Ottawa.-Canada's population by the
census of 1911, according to state
ment made by Census officer Blue, is
about 100000. He says this will be
slightly increased when delayed re-
turns are received. Until a few weeks
ago it was believed that the total fig
ures would show between 100000 and
100000 persons residing within the
dominion. The population in 1901 was
5,371,315. The increase, therefore, was
1,72S,6S5, mostly contributed by the
prairie provinces. New Brunswick
and Prince Edward Island showed a
decrease. Here are the figures by
provinces: Alberta, 372,919; British
Columbia, 362,76S; Manitoba 454,691;
New Brunswick 351,S15; Nova Scotia,
461.s47; Ontario, 2,519,9O2; Prince Ed
ward Island, 1922; Quebec, 2,O00,697;
Saskatchewan, 453,59S; Northwest
Territories, 10000. British Columbia
Manitoba, Nova Scotia Ontario, Que
bee; Saskatchewan and the Northwest
Territories are not complete, and the
returns from the Yukon are not in.
While the growth of the country has
been enormous, large numbers of Can
ada's immigrants from Europe subse-
quently cross the line to the United
States. Although the Canadian West
draws about 100000 Americans an
nually, a large number of Canadians
yearly leave Canada for the United
States.

IRELAND's DIVORCE RECORD.

lrelands divorce record is a record
of no divorce. That is a position as
unique as 1t is honorable In this age
of hobble skirts and lax marriage
laws, yet it is the verdict of sta
tistics.
Recently William B. Bailey, assist
ant professor of political economy in
Yale University. published in the
"lndependedent' an article under the
caption "The Worlds Divorce Rec
ord" in which he gave divorce sta
tistics for the leading countries Of
the world. His figures, which cover
the period from 1899 to 1903 and are,
therefore, not as appalling as If they
were more recent, show that the
United States is second only to Jap.

BOOK REVIEWS

Pioneer Irish of Onondaga" is the
title of late book by Theresa Ban
nan, NJ d. When it Is remembered
that Onondaga is the name of a
county in the state of New York the
title explains itself. The book con-
tains a complete record Of what the
Irish have done for that county. 1t
is written in the form of series of
biographical sketches in which de-
tailed reference is made to the
achievements and geneology of the
principal Irish families of Onondaga.
The writer's style is simple and d.
rect. The type is large and the vol
ume on the whole is very readable.
An attractive feature of the book is

erence is made. g. P. Putnam's Sons,

net doing that Failing to further
their ends by honest means they are
resorting to campaign of misrepre
sentatlOn in order TO check the prog
ress of Home Rule. Old speeches of
Home Rule LEADERS are being dug up

distorted for the sake of showing the

following such tactics the Tories are

LEADING HOME RULE QUESTION,

One of the gravest difficulties which
must be faced by the trainers of a
Home Rule bill will be the question
of 1reland's representation in the I'm
perial Parliament. Home Rule will
not mean the separation of Ireland
from the Kingdom and the Imperial
Parliament will, therefore, have the
right to legislate on all but purely
Irish affairs. To exclude the Irish
members entirely would be to deprive
them of voice in the framing of
legislation which applies to their own
country
On the other hand, if Irish men,
bers are allowed to participate in
all the work of the British Parliament
they will be permitted to help decide
questions which pertain entirely to
England, while the English members
will be deprived of the privilege of
helping to shape the legislation that
applies only to Ireland. Under such
control not only its own affairs, but
it might still continue to hold the
balance of power in the Imperial Par
Lament. Such an arrangement would
not appeal to England as it would be
manifes'tly unfair. In word it would
put Ireland in position to do to
England what England has all along
been doing to Ireland
The other alternative is to allow
the Irish members to sit in the I'M
peral Parliament only when affairs
appertaining to Ireland are being dis
cussed. Such plan would not be
practical as it would necessitate dis
tinguishing between imperial and IT,
cal affairs which Gladstone declared
would be impossible.
The question is difficult one but
with parties disposed to settle it, a
satisfactory settlement will be made.

Great Britain, G.; Hungary, IL; Italy,
3; Japan, 215: Norway, 6; Sweden, 8;
Switzerland, 32; United States, Is.
Japan has by far the worst divorce
record of any country in the world.
Two hundred and fifteen for every
100000 of the population is a deplor-
able ratio. But even at that, pagan
Japan is only three times worse than
the United States where Christian re-
ligions are numbered by the hundred
And today the record of one divorce
for every thirteen marriages in the
United States would make larger
average per hundred thousand of the
population
Ireland is not mentioned in the
above list because during the five
years for which the figures are given
there was only one divorce granted
despite the fact that she has a pop
ulation of a little less than 100000
Catholic Italy comes next with but
three divorces per 100000 population.
Belgium and Spain are not mentioned.
Perhaps it is because they, like Ire
land, could not be classified with
countries having divorce record
In considering the above compari-
sons 1t must be borne in mind that
the laws regulating divorce in the diff
ferent countries are very different.
In England for example, divorce
can be granted only by special act
Of Parliament. The cost of such a
procedure is so great that very few
can apply for legal separation. The
other extreme is to be witnessed in
Japan. In the case of Ireland and
Italy there is no mistaking the cause
of the honorable record 1t is the
influence of the Catholic Church that
has made divorce courts unnecessary
Ireland cannot be made so barren that
! true manhood anl womanhood will
not flourish there.

THEIR MISTAKES.

The wisdom of the Church both in
it's organization and it's teaching
grows in evidence as the newer and
less sound ideas are proved worth
less by the test of experience. Rev.
DR.. G.. w. Hodge, of the Protestant
Episcopal Church of the Ascension,
Philadelphia, made an admission in
a recent sermon which may be taken
as an indication of the modern trend
of opinion. He remarked that in pre-
Reformation times art, architecture
and ceremony We're utilized, as far
as it was possible, to make the serv-
ices attractive. The Catholic Church
taught land of course it still teaches)
that men should give their best eff
forts to God.
But" this Protestant clergyman
continues, 1.-THE Protestant reformers
changed all this. They said religion
was entirely a spiritual thing; that
splendid churches were waste, beau
tiful services were formality, stat
ues and pictures were merely ways
for moneymaking. So they butt p y,
unadorned meeting houses, banished
all form and ceremony; some would
not even have a note OF music in their
worship nor observe Christmas day
and Good Friday.
"The result of this mistake of Prot
estantism has been to make men lose
their reverence for all sacred things,
to think worship a very unimportant
thing and to give it up altogether. 1t
has made men luxurious and selfish,
lavishing all their wealth on them
selves, thinking only of their pleasure
and profit. And Professionals are COM
ing to see tins. 1t is the first Of their
mistakes they are beginning to real
ize. They are now building as beau
tifu and costly churches as Catholics,
so they can scarcely be told apart,
using stained glass and organ and Ii
turgies and even surpiced choirs.
They are realizing the power and
beauty of these things, that there
is nothing so elevatng and cultivat-
ing as art, and it should be used in
the interest of religion
The true church is the true church
forever. II there is to be union Of
creeds IT will not be result Of q
compromise on the part of the Cath
Ollie Church, but because the others
realize what folly 1T is for the
branches to try to discard the tree.
