THE PERlLs OF DRINKING.

The man who is trying to build a
career ought to be told that out of six
failures at least three are due to drink
ing and gambling.
There was a time when few men
gave up drinking except under the
compulsion of high moral principle.
But today athletes are discovering that
1t is impossible to break records on
beer. Insurance companies, Influenced
by nothing but the inexorable logic OF
figures, find that total abstainers fur.
nish better business than the most
moderate drinkers; and thousands of
shrewd business men, who do not care
a brass farthing for any temperance
crusade. have quit drinking for the
simple reason that i'm the stress of
modern competition they need q clear
brain and a steady head and complete
control OF all their faculties. They say
that the fear of blotchy face has
drawn more young men from drink
than all the temperance lectures, and

gress, in order to testify, with the
thousands who have come from
other lands and from every part
of Spain, to the faith that is with
in us and to honor our Lord in the
Blessed Sacrament of the altar.
And it is no harm to acknowledge
that a strong impelling motive for
this long journey was to get into
close touch with the faithful Cath
olics of Spain and to enliven our
faith by taking part in this mag
nifcent display Of theirs. In this
we have not been disappointed,
for anything more impressive it
would be hard to imagine. Cath

has had her religious difficulty
and that is likely to continue, for
great forces Of evil are arrayed
against her. But this great
Eucharistic Congress, which has
brought so many Of her children
to act in perfect unison, and on
which she has expended so much
energy, is an assurance to the
world that her people are sound in
the faith and full Of zeal for the
honor of Jesus Christ; that they
will never allow religion to be
trampled under foot by their
enemies, and that their relations
with the Holy See will continue
to be those of faithful children to

IRELAND'S TRIBUTE TO
CATHOLIC SPAIN.

During the recent Eucharistic
Congress at Madrid, the Very
Reverend Father Coleman, O. P,
Of Dublin, read an interesting
paper on "The Blessed Eucharist
in Ireland in the Early Christian
Tines before the Irish section.
His paper was complete refuta-
ton based on historical documents
of the statements made by Irish
Protestants to the effect that the
early Irish Christians did not be-
lieve in the Real Presence.
In concluding his paper Father
Coleman paid a tribute to the
Spanish people for the sympathy
shown to- the Irish during the
penal days. He said:
81 cannot conclude without Of
fering my humble tribute of adj
miration and gratitude to the
noble Spanish nation, which stood
so valiantly by us in our hour OF
trial and persecution. A strong
link of fellowship, forged by the
hand of religion, has joined Ire
land and Spain together in mutual
sympathy for the last four hun
dred years. In the name of our
Catholic fellow-countrymen we
can assure all Spaniards Of the
traditional love we bear towards
their country. We are not un.
mindful at the present day, while
we enjoy perfect religious liberty
that at the period we were ground
down to the dust and all education
was denied us by our oppressors

DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE.
MODERATE DRINKING sHoRTENs
LIFE.

In recent years all life insurance
companies have Disseminated against
the steady tippler and the periodical
free drinker. AS Incorporate risks
have usually been excluded even for
sub-standard or rated-up policies, there
are no comprehensive statistics on
this class. We do know, however,
from the collective experience OF thir-
ty-three life insurance companies, ex-
tending over period Of thirty years,
that accepted risks giving history Of
former intemperance show very
high rate of mortality, about thirty-six
per cent above the normal average.
AS such risks are always very critic
ally examined before acceptance, the
high mortality of this class, notwith-
standing the precautions taken, should
serve as warning to those who think
they can over-indulge in alcohol with
impunity for period of years, and
then look forward to a quiet and
healthy old age.
Fortunately the effect of moderate
indulgence in alcohol has, in broad
way, been measured by the experience
of the United Kingdom Temperance
and General Provident Institution.
Covering the period from 1866 to 1905,
it was found that for every 100 deaths
among the total abstainers there were
131 deaths among the temperate
drinkers, showing difference of thir-
ty-one per cent in favor of the alb
stainers. The experience of the same
company for sixty-one years prior to
1909, separated into groups. showed
that among the moderate drinkers the
largest excess of mortality obtained
during the most valuable and produc-
tive years of life, amounting to eighty
three per cent between the ages of
thirty-fve and thirty-nine.
The value of these figures lies in the
fact that the comparison is between
homogeneous groups; in other words,
the total abstainers were of the same
average physical type as the temperate
drinkers, and were insured under the
same form of policies, SO that the ex-
cess mortality in the general group
accurately reflects the direct and in
direct influence of alcohol.

SPAIN AND THE HOLY SEE.

The Holy Father, says the
Roman correspondent of the Lon
don Tablet, has made no secret of
his immense satisfaction at the
splendid results of the Eucharistic
Congress in Madrid, and it was a
pleasant surprise for everyone in
Rome to read Of the noble part
taken in it by the King of Spain,
and by the members of the Gov
eminent. Almost simultaneously
came the news that the Council
Of Ministers had determined to
ask the Holy See to accept as
Ambassador Senior Reverter, the
Minister of Finance. But it
would be a mistake to augur from
all this that any notable change
has taken place in the politico-re-
ligious relations between Spain
and the Holy See. The late Am
bassador, who died two weeks ago,
was recalled in a somewhat alb
rupt way by his Government about
this time last year, but that fact
did not mean a rupture of dip
lomatic relations, and the Pom
tifical Nuncio has remained all the
time at his post in Madrid. The
appointment of the new Ambas-
sador is important if it means that
Senior Canalejas has at last made
up his mind to negotiate on the
essential points Of difference
otherwise it means very little
and there is no reason to believe
that in making the appointment
the Spanish Government has in
timated to the Holy See it's inten-
ton to observe the articles Of the
Concordat which it has violated,
or to modify in satisfactory way
the new Law Of Associations in so
far as this regards the religious
congregations.

TREATING AND DRINKING.

News comes from one of the more
rural suburbs of the metropolis that
the young men thereabout have
formed an anti-treating club, and thus
propose by both example and precept
to diminish drunkenness in their en-
vironment. The idea is that young
men are enticed or driven to intemper-
ance by the habit of treating. The
members pledge themselves never to
pay for other mems liquor. The idea
is old, and rot bad. Still, experience
shows that the best way to avoid the
drink habit is not to drink. Treating
is pernicious custom, but it Is due
to generous impulses and good fellow
ship, and there can be no harm in a
young man, who can afford it, buying
saltwater and ice-cream for a young
woman, and that is treating.
To stand at drinking-bar and buy
alcohol promiscuously for a row of
acquaintance is not sign OF thrift
or a true manifestation of friendship.
But the whole question of intemper.
ance is question of character. Many
sodden drunkard has not been open
handed or generous, There are stages
OF intoxication in which any victim is
possessed of the desire to give away
his money. This is also recognizable
symptom in some forms of insanity.
Much treating, to be sure, leads to in
temperance. But with the treating
habit wholly abolished intemperance
would still exist. Stop drinking, IL you
have the habit. II you have escaped
the habit do not form it. That is the
best advice to give the young man who
goes out much in the world It is get
ting to be the fashion nowadays not to
drink. Be fashionable-N. Y. Times.

THE CHURCH AND AVIATION

The Sacred Congregation of the
Discipline of Sacramento at Rome,
says the Catholic Standard and
Times of Philadelphia, recently
examined the case submitted by a
French Bishop who asked whether
the priests of his Diocese were
authorized to refuse absolution to
penitents who unnecessarily risked
their lives through aviation.
The Congregation answered
that although aviation in itself did
not constitute sin, "still any
body who without extreme neces-
sity exposed his life to great
danger and either for mere amuse-
ment or just for lucre undertook
a voyage in the aerial regions
without the necessary preparation
committed a grave sin. I"
The Church does not condemn
aviation which is regarded as a
means of locomotion, and some
time ago the Pope granted the
necessary authorization to the
Bishop of Versailles to bless an
aeroplane, while recently the
Archbishop of Paris allowed 9
Mass to be celebrated at Vincennes
before dawn in order to enable
aviators who were about to parti
eipate in a race to accomplish
their religious duties.

NATIONAL TOTAL ABSTIN.
NENCE CONVENTION,

Inc Ofhclal program tor the Tor
ty-frst annual convention Of the
Catholic Total Abstinence Union
Of America, to be held at Scran-
ton, Pa, from August s to II, has
just been issued. It seems to us
that it contains a lot of informa-
ton about everything except the
real work Of the Convention.
A glance at it shows that the
coming Convention will be much
the same as it's predecessors.
Routine business will occupy the
delegates most Of the time. A GER
tain amount of routine business
cannot be avoided. Reports must
be presented from the different
Unions; but this part of the
program could be made less ted
ious and more interesting than it
usually is if the delegates. had
their reports written out, or if they
knew enough about the activities
of their respective Unions to pre-
sent the salient features in an in
telIigent and ineligible manner.
But, after all, these reports are
not so important that they can
not be dispensed with at the gen
eral sessions. They could be
handed in and embodied in the
annual report of the Convention
without detriment to the cause.
The educational features Of the
Convention should predominant.
People who are really interested
in total abstinence work attend
the Convention in the hope of
learning something more than
can be cleaned from the reports
usually presented. For this pur-
pose it is absolutely necessary to
have a series of carefully pre-
pared papers and addresses on
subjects Of vital interest.
The program is silent in regard
to this feature. 1t intimates that
papers will be read and addresses
delivered by prominent speakers
both lay and clerical; but it does
not state the subjects Of these
papers or addresses. AS a general
rule the number Of papers read at
the Convention is reduced to a
minimum, and very frequently the
prominent speakers are called
upon without having had definite
subjects assigned them, or due no.
tice given them for the necessary
preparation. AS a result, the ad
dresses are usually along the same
lines and contain nothing new OF
interesting in regard to the tenn.
perance movement. The delegates
return to their homes WONDERING
If their trip was worth while from
the point of view of enlightenment
and knowledge. They met ole

by its social features.
