The Paulist mission at St. Pauls church, previously announced, will open today at 1O:30 o'clock. It will be conducted by the Rev. Robert A. Skinner and the Rev. James J. Dev- cry. well known missioners. They will celebrate carly masses at St. Paufs and will make brief addresses at these masses, but the mission proper VIII begin at high mass, when the Rev. Father Skinner will preach on the Meaning of the Mission The Rev. Father Devery will preach at the night service, which begins at 7:30 o'clock, his theme being "The Value of the Human Soul" The Rev. Father Coyle, pastor of St. Paul's church, announces the order of mission exercises for the first week as follows:
 Early mass and instruction at 5S0 o'clock Another mass and instruction at 8 o'clock. Thus all the parishoners will have an opportunity of making the mission. At 7:3O p. m., instruc tion, rosary of the Blessed Virgin, ser mon and benediction of the Blessed Sacrament The sermons during the first week will be mainly on moral subjects, teaching what we must do to save our mortal souls, to gain heaven, to fulfill the end of creation The second week the sermons will be doctrinal, explanatory of the Faith, and as such instructive and edifying not only to Catholics, but to those outside the fold who may be anxious to know what the old mother church teaches and believes.
 In speaking of the Paulist society Father Coyle said: Their history is interesting. It is just a little over 90 years ago since Pope Plus TX by q special decree, separated the Rev Isaac Hecker, Clarence Walwortb.

JUBILEE MISSIONARY
 MEETING TO BE HELD
General Committee Issues an Urgent Call for All Pastors and Church
 Workers to Cooperate

The general committee of the Bir- mingham Foreign Missionary jubilee. Mrs. T. A. Hamilton. chairman, is is- suing an urgent call to the ministers of all denominations and workers il. every department of churches and rnis- sions to cooperate in making Sun day, October 22 the time for presenting E to the people the obligations which rest upon the Christian nations to sprea' the gospel to all parts of the world a big success. This will be Missionary Sunday and it is planned to have ev- cry sermon preached on that\ day to bear on the subject of missions and to arouse an interest in this movement
 This will be a preliminary for the jubilee meetings to be held in this city on October 27 and 2S under the auspices of the Woman's National For eign Missionary Jubilee which will con duct series of meetings all over the United States.
 The jubilee meetings are the outcoma of a statement r4ade at the world mis- sionary conference in Edinburgh last June that onn- tenth of the churches do nine -tenths of the missionary work. The women of the churches were so Impressed by this fact that move- ment to awaken Christians and others to the need of more missionaries was started throughout the country.

the two communities have always been very amicable
 These five first Paulists were all American born, and had come as con- verts to the Catholic church from the very heart of Protestantism. They bore with them the conviction that if Amer ican on-Catholics only knew the in ner beauty of the Catholic church they would make great sacrifices to become Catholics, and so they felt their life work was to present the Catholic church in her true aspect to American Catholics. This high and holy pur- pose was great enough to consume their energies and to claim the homage of their lives. They gladly organized themselves into new institute with the vacations before them and the re- cent golden jubilee of the Paulists tells how nearly they have achieved, their ideals.
 'The activity of the Paulist fathers in the fulfillment of their external yo cation has radiated chiefly in eight directions: The preaching of missions; war on intemperance; elevation of ser monic standards; the apostolate of the press; missions to Catholics; the publicat tion of The Missionary and the foundation of the Catholic Missionary

Besides the mother house in New York, the Paulists now have flourishing and widely influential parishes in Chicago and San Francisco.
 "A parish at Winchester, Tenn. from which the fathers conducting St. PauPs mission came, has been in existence for the past 10 years and has demon- strated the excellence of the plan to seek conversions in radically non-Cath- ollie regions of great extent by build ing up a center of fervent Catholic propaganda somewhat after the fash ion of a colony.
