SUGGESTIONS FOR CHRIST
MAS.

In almost every parish there are
some who, for one reason or an
other, are unable to subscribe for
a Catholic paper. They are thus
deprived of the benefits that flow
from that source of information in
regard to Catholic truth. In many
cases they are of the number of
those who stand in greatest need
of such influence as a Catholic
paper exerts over the minds of its
readers. Would it not be good
policy, to say the least, for the
parish or for some Of it's influential
members to devise some means of
assisting such people? A few dol
lars judiciously expended at
Christmas or New Years in sub
scriptions for Catholic newspapers
would give these families reading
matter for whole year. This
would be a good way to show the
Christmas spirit of cheer and help
fulness not only at that season but
throughout the year. Perhaps
some parish will avail itself Of
this suggestion for the purpose Of
doing lasting good to it's deserving
members and to the community at
large? /
Then, too, what about our non
Catholic friends and neighbors !?
A Catholic newspaper going into
a non-Catholic home is a messen-
ger bearing the light Of truth
which, in some instances at least,
will help to dispel the darkness of
prejudice and unbelief. It is one
Of the best means of spreading the
faith. Few will close their doors
against such friendly advances.
Sincere non-C Catholics are anxious
for the truth in religious matters
and they like to have access to
Catholic sources for information
in regard to the Church s teach
ing. Send your friend a good
Catholic paper. He will appre-
ciate your interest in him. A few
subscriptions to a Catholic paper
judiciously and unostentatiously
placed among non-Catholics may
have far-reaching results. If they
do not make converts, they will
help to pave the way for a better
understanding of the Catholic
Church and, consequently, kind,
lier feeling towards her members

THE Y. nj. G. A. In MANILA.


In it's efforts to obtain a foot
hold in the Philippine Islands the
Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton employs the usual methods
characteristic Of that organization.
Under the guise of a philanthropic
and educational program it is
seeking the cooperation Of the
public in it's efforts to establish a
branch of the organization in
Manila for the sole benefit of the
native Filipinos. To prevent the
deception under which it appeals
for financial support from the peo-
pie, the Most Reverend Arch
bishop Harry called their atten-
ton to it's sectarian character by
citing the provisions Of its consti-
tuition which excludes from the
full benefits of membership all who
are not affiliated with evangelical
churches. This provision initiates
against the admission of Jews,
Universalists, Unitarians and Cath

The Right Reverend Bishop
Muldoon, of Rockford, in the
course of an address delivered
during his recent visit to one of
the smaller towns in his Diocese,
made use of very forceful Ian
guage in speaking of the duty of
Catholics to subscribe for a Cath
Ollie newspaper. cit is the duty
of every Catholic family, said he,
"to supply the home with Cath
Ollie newspaper. Those who do not
fulfil this duty are bound to ac-
cuse themselves of their neglect in
Confession. Every Catholic who
knows something of his religion
must understand the reason why
he is bound to accuse himself OF
such negligence in regard to Cath
Ollie newspapers. A genuine Cath,
Ollie could never under any pretext
tolerate in his home newspaper
which constitutes a danger to re.
ligion. To do this is a grievous
sin, the more so in as much as il
also means giving moral and ma
terial support to our enemies. "

His Eminence, Cardinal Fal-
COMO, referring to the honor which
had been conferred upon himself
and two American Prelates by
their elevation to the Cardinalate,
declared that it was a mark of the
Holy Fathers appreciation of the
fourishing condition and wonder
full growth of the, Church in Amer
lea. While" he said, "by this
solemn act the Pontiff confers the
highest honor upon us in our per-
sonal capacity, he also honors the
noble, young and powerful nation
which is proud of it's free institu-
lions. He confers likewise a very
great honor on the faithful Cath
olics of that nation who are truly
great and worthy of their high
reputation and whose steady pro.
gress under the aegis of sane
Christian liberty wins the admira,
ton of all. This unique honor
comes to us less by reason of ou1
personal merits than because oil
the exalted opinion which the
noble mind Of the Pontiff enter
tains of the fiourishing conditions
OF the Catholic religion in the
United States.'

glory will be seen ION the NOR
row. The admonition of the
Church is couched in the words of
Isaiah: Prepare We the way Of
the Lord, make straight his
paths.
This preparation comes through
penance, fact which is impressed
upon our minds by the purple hue
Of the vestments worn at Mass on
the Sundays of Advent It's mute
appeal is, "Do penance for the
kingdom Of Heaven is at hand. !"
During Advent, while meditat-
ing on the coming of Christ, the
Savior, we should not be unmind-
full of the time when He will come
as Judge to weigh in the balance
every human act. The gospel of
the first Sunday of Advent placed
before us the terrors Of the judg-
ment day in order that we may be
ready, when summoned, to give an
account of our stewardship of the
gifts and graces with which, we
have been enriched during life.
Advent is, therefore, a time of
spiritual stock-taking. "It is now
the hour for us to rise from sleep, -
as St. Paul says, to cast aside the
lethargy Of spirit which tends to
deaden our sense of responsibility
and make us content with our
state Of exile rather than yearn
for our true home above.
If we would profit by the Sa.
voir's coming we must be ready to
accept His message in it's fulness
and follow His example, for "now
our salvation is nearer than wher
we believed. " The necessary puri
fcation of mind and heart can b.
effected only by penance anc
prayer and by withdrawing as fa1
as our avocations permit from thu
distracting influences which sur
round us. Let us take advantage
of this season Of grace and lool
forward with confidence TO the da,
when "All flesh shall see the sal
walton Of God.'

Last week His Eminence, Car
dinal Gibbons, was the guest Of
the Sisters of the Immaculate Con-
ception Seminary, Washington,
during the jubilee exercises Of
that institution. He delivered a
short address in which he said that
"the salvation of the country de-
ponds upon the purity of woman
hood and the continuance of the
home atmosphere. This can only
be perpetuated by woman main
tanning herself free from the con-
Eliminating influences Of politics
and worldly Pleasures He
pleaded with his hearers to main
tain their interest in home life and
deplored the modern tendency of
women to enter politics and the
professions of men.

THOUGHTS ON ADVENT,

The dominant note Of the season
Of Advent is one Of penance and
austerity lightened and made &C
ceptable by the glow Of hope and
joy which the coming of the
worlds Redeemer sheds over it.
Advent is to Christmas what Lent
is to Easter-a period Of prepara-
ton and self-denial during which
the true Christian strives the bet
ter to appreciate the supernal
value of the great event of which
it is the prelude. Advent teaches
us the significance Of Christmas; it
brings home to us the wealth of
spiritual meaning which the
Church sheds around it; and al
lures us to greater effort in the
task of rendering our souls more
worthy to be tabernacles of the
Divine Babe of Bethlehem.
For four thousand years the an
cient world was in process of
preparation for the coming of the
Messiah. From the lips of Patri-
arch and Prophet issued the SOL
emn words of admonition by
means Of which God taught His
people how well-founded were
their hopes, and how necessary it
was for them to utilize this period
OF expectation that they might
merit the reward promised only to
those who looked forward with
confidence to the coming of the
Redeemer. This hope, begotten OF
faith in the promise of God and
engendering holiness of life, alone
could save them. Few were priv
LEGGED to see the Redeemer in the
flesh i; few heard the words Of Johr
the Baptist pointing out to human
ity the Lamb of God; but all who
with the eyes Of faith, saw the
fruition of their desires and livec
in hope of that realization were
saved from destruction.
The Savior's birth put an end tt
this long period Of expectancy; i
marked the beginning of new
era. Faith and hope are no les
essential now than they were il
ancient days; but the viewpoint il
changed. Our faith is founded OF
the word of God Who has re
deemed His promise. Our hope il
deep-rooted in the divine charac
ter and mission of Savior VIII,
has already blessed the world witt
His physical presence. Nearly tw,
thousand years ago 1.-THE Wore
was made flesh and dwelt amongs
us. Each year the recurring sea
son Of Advent bids us renew on
faith in Him, and prepare our
selves for the solemn commemora
ton of the day on which the ligh
of His bodily presence shone 70
the first time among the. childrel
lof men, 1t is already near; it

THE SACERDOTAL JUBILEE
OF ARCHBISHOP IRELAND.

Frequent inquiries come to
"The Catholic Bulletin" regard
ing the sacerdotal jubilee Of the
Archbishop of st. Paul. Several
Of the Catholic papers make allu-
sions to it, as if a public celebra-
ton of no insignificant proportions
were to mark it's occurrence. To
enquiries and illusions "The Cath
Ollie Bulletin" must give the reply
There will be no. celebration
whatever Of this jubilee. The fault
lies exclusively with the Arch
bishop. The people and the
clergy Of the Archdiocese were
ready to honor him: the thousands
Of friends outside the Archdiocese
and outside the ranks of Catholics
in Minnesota and elsewhere were
anxious to have their part in the
celebration. But the Archbishop
is steadfast in his resolve, taken
several months ago and formally
announced last August to the
clergy during the exercises Of the
annual retreat. 1t is with him a
matter Of personal taste: his
friends will respect his wishes
Acquiescence in his decision is the
best proof his friends can give of
the esteem and affection in which
they hold him. And so there need
be no further talk about the sacer.
dotal jubilee Of Archbishop Ire.

In the oratory of the Archbish-
ops palace in Naples there was
recently held an extraordinary
meeting for the publication of the
process on the reputed sanctity of
the life of Plus TX. The postula-
tor of the cause, Mgr. CAM, Arch
priest of the chapter of the Pan
theon, went expressly from Rome.
The process will be sent to the
Eternal City after it has been
signed by His Eminence, Cardinal
Frisco, Archbishop of Naples. Over
a hundred persons heard in this
cause have given most ample
proofs of the reputed sanctity of
the life of Plus TX, and many
more of the copious extraordinary
graces granted by God through the
intercession Of His faithful serv-
ant, so that this process in Naples
alone might suffice for the Sacred
Congregation of Rites to proceed
promptly with the much desired
cause of Qualification. The local
processes in Rome, Spoleto and
Imola are also nearing completion
and shortly their canonical publ
cations will take place.

FOR BETTER PLAYS.

In the course of one week during
November seventy-four plays
were discontinued in New York.
The majority Of these were comic
operas without merit, problem
plays of little value, and indecent
dramas. 1t has been customary
for the promoters of these plays
to assign as reason for staging
them that they are giving the pub
lie what they want. Whatever
foundation there may have been
for this in the past, it no longer
holds true, as general rule, if
we may judge from the reception
given to certain plays of this char
acter throughout the country
where one city after another has
prohibited the performance of
them on the score of indecency
and as subversive Of public morals.
Theatergoers themselves are fur
nishing a fairly good censorship
for the modern stage. AS a rule,
they demand good plays and are
not satisfied with the thrashy
variety. There are those, unfor-
tunately, who revel in unbecoming
and indecent stage productions
but self-respecting and intelligent
people demand clean, wholesome
plays. Their attitude will do much
to purify and elevate the stage
and if they continue to taboo every
performance that is not up to the
standard they will soon drive all
unworthy plays from the boards
The fact that a. play has had a run
in New York is no longer a guar.
antee that it will be favorably re-
ceived by the rest of the country
Many organizations are con
stantly on the watch for plays oil
this kind and they enlighten theil
members and the public at large il
regard to the character Of the at
fractions to be presented on thu
, local stage. The Guild of Catholic
Women of st. Paul have inter
ested themselves in this work ant
their afiliation with the Dram;
League of America enables then
t to keep in touch with the lates
productions. Catholics SHOULD
! take a very special interest in thi
$ feature of the Guilds program
$ and should do all that lies in thei
p power to assist it's members b,
;. showing their disapproval of play
$ that cater to depraved tastes. TIL
. best way to do this is to Civ
theaters that book such plays
: wide berth and warn others, es
pecially the young, not to patron
0 ize any show-place which permit
: improper performances.

station of Senaga in this little known
district of German West Africa Of
the visitation of the Vicar Apostolic,
Pastor Heinrich Vieter. It was a
day of jubilee for the lonely mission
ers and for hundreds of natives
from miles round. Though they had
little time to prepare after news of
the coming of the Regina, the mission
boat, reached them the two Fathers,
two Sisters and two Brothers who
form the staff of the mission had ar
ranged quite an imposing welcome.
Three triumphal arches were erected
from the banks of the Senaga to the
church. The hundreds Of negroes who
had come in from the various vii
lagos around assembled during the
preceding two days, coming some on
foot, some in canoes. The work Of
the missionaries is vouched for by
the fact that there were $50 candi-
dates for Baptism, 232 for Confrma-
ton, and literally hundreds who had
come to make their confession and
communion. When at last the Regina
was sighted crowds of canoes rushed
out into the river to meet her, and
the good Bishop was escorted to the
church in procession of great state
surrounded by all the missionaries,
and followed by the native Christians,
where on arrival he gave them a
short address and then bestowed his
blessing. He spent a very busy two
days in the mission, catechising, bap-
Using and receiving reports, after
which he left for Edea, whence he
goes on to Jaurde, an eight days
march, then on to Kribi and from there
returns to Duala. The Bishop, who is
fifty-eight years old, is continually
passing from one mission station to
another like this. He has to march
through burning tropical heat or
weeks of rain, but he is ever at the
rendezvous on the appointed day He
has spent twenty years in the KAN
eroons and is at length beginning to
see the first green shoots Of that long
sowing.

At Norfolk House.

Among the social events Of the com
ing week in London is an At Home
given by the Duchess of Norfolk at
Norfolk House, which will be opened
by Queen Amelie of Portugal. I say
opened, because this is another new
form Of bazaar. In the spacious
drawing room of Norfolk House, Her
Grace the Duchess, has arranged
number OF stalls, each will be pre-
sided over by lady of rank, and the
proceeds go to Lady Edmund Talbot's
fund for the Catholic poor of London.
Tea will be given visitors, and as
visiting cards only are required for
admission it liz expected that many
ladies will avail themselves of the
opportunity OF seeing some OF the
most beautiful and famous Catholic
women OF the day i'm the setting of a
noble mansion OF the old stately style.
