A K. of G. EDUCATIONAL
CAMPAIGN.

Some months ago the National
Council of the Knights Of Column
bus decided to inaugurate prac-
teal movement for the dissemina-
ton Of Catholic truth in regard to
matters that have been more or
less the subject Of controversy.
That it was a step in the right
direction is shown by the outcome
Of its initial effort.
It. was decided to issue Knights
of Columbus edition of DIR. James
J. Walsh's scholarly work on
"The Popes and Science" if a
sufficient number Of orders were
received to warrant the reprinting
Of the book at a nominal cost.
The Catholic Truth Committee of
the Order placed the matter before
the different councils, advising
them that the book would cost
80 cents copy for an edition Of
10000 and Is cents a copy for
one of $4,000. So gratifying was
the response that an edition of
10000 copies was struck off from
the plates of the original work
which was issued a few years ago
at $500 a volume. Twenty-three
thousand copies have already been
delivered to the members of the
Order, and 1000 have been placed
by DIR. Walsh in public libraries
throughout the country. The re-
naming copies will soon be in the
hands of those who ordered them.
No better selection could have
been made than DR.. Walsh s
"Popes and Science" for the pur-
pose which the Knights of Column
bus had in view. 1t is an effective
answer to DR.. Andrew White s
work on the Warfare of Science
and Theology" which has been
so long paraded in the non-Catho.
lie world as a true exposition OF
the attitude of the Catholic Church
towards science. In his "Popes
and Science" DR.. Walsh refutes
the oft-repeated SANDER that the
Catholic Church is not favorably
disposed to scientific investigation
The work is not controversial but
constructive. Tt shows that the
Catholic Church has always en-
couraged true science; that she
has nothing to fear from the in
vestigation of natural phenomens
when conducted in a proper spirit
that the greatest medical schools
of the world were under the
auspices of the Church at time
when scientific investigation wa.

riage while his wife lived. Never
theless, the news is set forth on the
first page, under sensational head
lines, one of which betrays an ig-
norance of the Church s teaching
truly astounding in this enlight-
ened age. But the old and oft
refuted calumnies against the
Catholic Church die hard; and GER
tain classes of newspapers, posing
as respectable, do not scruple,
when occasion offers, to drag them
forth from that oblivion in which
decent regard for the truth as
we'll as for the conscientious con-
victions of so many of their read
ers should suggest that they be al
lowed to remain. These papers
cannot resist the temptation to
take a gratuitous fling at the
teaching of the Catholic Church
when news item susceptible Of a
sensational write-up is offered.

CORONATION HONORS FOR
CATHOLICS.

The list Of those upon whom
honors and distinctions were be-
slowed by His Majesty, King
George V, on the occasion Of his
coronation is particularly rich in
Catholic names. One of the two
who were awarded the Order of
Merit, mark Of the highest dis
tinction, is Sir Edward Elgar, the
English musical composer who re-
Gently visited America and direct
ed the Sheffield Choir in the rendi-
ton Of his great oratorio, "The
Dream Of Gerontius," in the St.
Paul Auditorium. Among those
who were made Privy Councillors
of Great Britain are Sir Edward
Morris, Premier Of Newfoundland !;
the Right Honorable Michael Cox,
M. D., Of Dublin, one of the Sena-
tors Of the National University );
and the Right Honorable Laurence
Waldron, also of Dublin, who for
merly sat at Westminster for the
Stephens Green Division. Sir
Joseph Ward, the Catholic Pre-
mier' of New Zealand, is the only
Catholic in the list of twenty new
baronets created by the King.
Eight Of the ffty-six new knights
are Catholic, among whom Sir
Adolphe B. Routhier of Quebec,
is the only French Canadian hon
ored. The Grand Cross Of the
Order Of st. Michael and St.
George goes to Right Hon. Sir
Charles Fitzpatrick, Minister of
Justice of Canada; that Of the
Victorian Order was bestowed on
Sir Edward Henry. Five Catho-
lies were made Companions Of the
Bath; and two, Companions of st.
Michael and st. George.

ENGLISH CATHOLICS AND
THE CORONATION.

The Papal Envoy to the recent
coronation Of King George V was
the bearer of a letter from Pope
Plus K in which His Holiness ex-
pressed sentiments of the warmest
affection for Great Britain, her
King and people, and called on
all the Catholics Of the realm to
show by their enthusiasm and
loyalty how fully they appreciated
the browning Of the first English
Sovereign since the Reformation
who did not make an official dec
laration of his adherence Of the
most sacred beliefs and practices
of their Church. English Catho-
lies entered into the spirit Of the
occasion and gave evidence Of their
loyalty by the manner in which
they hailed their anointed Sow
ereign.
In the Catholic Churches
throughout England, and in many
parts of the. Empire, special serv-
ices were held either on the day Of
the coronation or on the following
Sunday. In the Cathedral of
Westminster arSolemn Pontifcal
Mass of thanksgiving was cele-
brated by the Papal Envoy, Mgr.
di Belmonte; and at it's conclu-
sion Archbishop Bourne intoned
the TIE Deum and offered special
prayers for the newly-crowned
King.

AN INSULT TO OUR CREATOR.

I'm every way and under every
form the bishops of the Third Plenary
Council of Baltimore have found this
same fearful agency or intoxicating
drink ever ready to do the DEVILS
work, to deform and degrade human
ity, and insult our Creator. Is It any
wonder that, for the love Of God and
love of humanity, they raised their
voice and mathematical it? And IL
any man praise it, il any man counte-
nance and encourage it, does he not
prove himself an enemy of God and
humanity, and does he not deserve to
share in the anathema? The bishops
cursed no man; but well they knew
what curses deep and bitter went up
from thousands of anguished and
broken hearts against those who sup
piled to their husbands and their sons
the vile stuff that overwhelmed them
with hopeless misery"

welcome to it's royal visitors, en-
thusiastic crowds greeted their Ma
jesties, King George and Queen

and affection worthy Of Irish
hearts. Last Sunday afternoon
the royal party motored to May

Dublin, where they were received

The fugitive monk from Buck

recently paraded as can escaped
monk" is sorely disappointed at
the manner in which he was treat
ed by the Protestant Alliance
whose emissaries were instrument

Benedictine Order. He has en-
phatically denied that he has
abandoned the faith. On leaving
the Monastery he took only his
breviary which he continues to
recite faithfully each day. He has
authorized a writer in the London
Tablet, to make the following dec
laration in his behalf: First, that
he sincerely regrets and deplores

that he is willing, nay, anxious to
reconnect his life with the broad
life system which is to be found
alone in the Catholic Church; third

A CRUSADE AGAINST INDIE
CENT PLAYS.

Some time ago, the American
Federation Of Catholic Societies
issued an open letter to "theatri-
cal producers and managers Of
playhouses" throughout the United
States in which protest was made
against the production of plays
that are a menace to public NOR
atty and the welfare Of the nation.
In this letter they demand that
indecent plays, as well as those
which make 8 mockery of religion
and sacred things, be abandoned !;
that vulgarity, indecency and inn
moral suggestiveness be entirely
eliminated from all plays, adver-
tisements, programs and posters.
They condemn in severest terms
the attitude Of those who assert
that such plays are staged only
because the American people want
them. "There are thousands, nay
millions, of American people,, the
letter declares, stwho are DISCUS
ted with these putrid exhibitions.
The decent people are not a neg
ligible quantity and the people s
ideas and desires must not be mea-
sured by the sentiment Of the vul-
gar crowd. They call upon all
societies affiliated with the FEEDER
alton to assist in this crusade by
Withdrawing their patronage from
any theatre which permits often
sive productions on it's stage.
Undoubtedly, there is much
truth in what the Federation says
about the condition of the .Ameri-
can stage. It's protest can scarce
ly fail to have a good effect. 1t
is hardly probable that it will rem
edy the evil complained of; but,
at any rate, it will bring before
the theatrical world il concrete
form the teaching of the Catholic
Church in this regard. Few, If any
will deny that the stage in Ameri-
ca need publication. At present

from every suggestion detrimental
to their moral welfare.

Mgr. Granite di Belmonte, Papal
Envoy to the Coronation, has left
England on his return to Rome.
He was the first of the Foreign
ENJOYS to be received by King
George and ON the evening of the
day on which he was presented,
he dined with their Majesties at
the State Banquet at Buckingham
Palace. He did not attend the
coronation ceremony in Westmin-
lister Abbey, but was an interested
spectator of the great procession.
He bears away with him most
pleasant memories of his brief
visit to England.

item appeared in the St. Paul Dis

the formalities of civil marriage

for a religious ceremony in the

Catholic Federation errs when it
assumes that the theater has de-
Perforated to a wofully great ex-
tent And it ignores one truth
which has always been apparent
to students of the theater who sur
vey it as whole, without preju-
dice, and uninfuenced by special
considerations Of religious policy.
That truth relates to the always
narrow appeal Of the salacious
play, which never survives a limit
ed curiosity, and which most de-
cent persons avoid without being
told to shun it. And the same
study Of the theater will show that
it has not deteriorated, to swo-
fully great or any other extent.
The wholesome, uplifting, inspir-
ing, or innocently amusing drama
is as evident as ever, and in an
even greater number Of examples.
Most questionable plays will die
quickly without special ban, but
nobody will seriously object to a
fastening Of their end by the Cath
Ollie Federation or any other relig-
ious or morally purposed organi-
cation.
can unbiased and analytical
view Of the theater today-not by
a person concerned in the theater,
or by a person hampered in act
and conscience by religious exac-
tions and traditions would, in
fact, disclose that the theater is
no worse than it has been for ages.
It would probably show that the
theater on the whole is better than
ever.
'Life nowadays is not as life
was centuries ago. It is more thor
oughly instructed, and has a finer
tendency toward the good Of the
many. The theater reflects some
thing of this, in the practice Of a
function that cannot be denied and
that narrow declarations as to it's
purpose cannot affect. -
We would like to believe that
this is an impartial presentation of
the case for the theatre. It may
be true that the theatre is no
worse than it has been for ages !;
but does that say very much for
it? The root Of the trouble is found
in this, that the theatre has eman-
cipated itself largely from the
control Of religion, and that
theatrical productions are in the
hands of those who are not
"hampered in act and conscience
by the higher moral considera-
tons that flow from the teachings
Of religion. How is it that when
the public-spirited citizens of one
city make an effective protest
against play like 'sLa Samara-
tame" and prevent its production
in the local theatres, the same pro-
test has to be repeated by the
people of the next city it visits ?
Why do not the managers with
draw it at once from the boards
and allow it to "die quickly with
out a special ban''? By removing
it at once they would show some
Of that more thoroughly instructed
''life" which, according to the
foregoing, "has a finer tendency
towards the good of the many
than it exhibited centuries ago.

A Tribute From School Associates,

Miss Julia Hennessy, teacher
in the school in Alban, where the
lately deceased George Moser
attended, wishes to bear testi-
mony to the lovable character of
the young man, and states that
he is indeed greatly missed from
his place in the school room,
where he was the only eighth
grade scholar in the room and
the oldest pupil in the school.
His constant cheerfulness and
little attentions to the smaller
children while at school, and
while on their way to and from
school, marked the kindly char
acter of the youth, and his taking
away has cast a shadow over all
these associations SO identified
with his memory.
