TIMELY ADVICE
Given Members of Irish
Fellowship Club of
Chicago.

Attorney Frank l.. Childs, AS
sistant Corporation Counsel of
Chicago, spoke some plain truths to
Club at their meeting in the La
Sale Hotel last Saturday afternoon.
One of the leading sins of men these
days is that fathers refuse to be
companions to their sons. They
give them enough money to make
spendthrifts of themselves, ana then
curse them for the results.
Men sin, too" he said, ''by not
going to church enough and leaving
religion to women, by disregarding
family needs, by using automobiles
without thought of the strap-hanger
on the street and elevated cars. AS
a result of this neglect on the part
of the men we find many ills in
public and private life. We expect
women to take care of the church
and the Sunday-schools, and as a
result the morals of the city are
lowered. We have lax business
methods, graft in business, and dis
honesty in politics.
1Ou see uOh say SldAt III
politics and dishonesty in business.
Graft is business evil, and the
trouble with politics is its dishon-
esty This dishonesty is what |
would call intellectual dishonesty.
Men become dishonest in politics not
by stealing from the treasury, but by
doing and saying things they do not
believe. They boost a man o. a
principle they do not believe in.
There is no such thing as graft in
politics, except as it comes from bust
ness. The foundation ~ all graft
in politics is the fact that some
business man is willing to pay for
something he is not entitled to-"

solutely fire-proof, and of all the
school buildings in Louisville one of
the most modern. It will give
ample room for the 400 children at
tending this school,.
But spiritually Father Thome has
done greater work. He has thor
oughly organized the parish. The
boys and young men have each
branch OF sodality under the patron
age of st. Stanislaus; the girls and
young ladies' each have a branch OF
this same sodality under the pat
ronage of st. Cecilia; the married
ladies have st. Elizabeth Sodality;
the men are organized into a st.
Vincent de Paul Society. To attend
to these engenders great patience,
tact and ability. The men. the girls
and young ladies and the married
ladies each have Poor Soul society.
The pet work, however, of good
Father Thome is his school. At
present there are over 400 attend
ing. All receive watchful care and
training. A child going through
these grades and working faithfully
will at its graduation be as well
equipped as the product of other
graded schools--to say nothing of
the incalculable training in religion
and morality here given. The
school is under the care of the
Ursuline Sisters, able and expert
enced teachers.
Father Thome is too modest to
speak of the work accom-
plished during the twenty-five years
of his priestly life, and 1t was by
considerable effort that material for
this meager notice has been col
lected. However, the members of
st. Vincent de Paul's church know
his worth and know his work since
he has been among them, wherefore
they would not let this occasion pass
without expressing their appreeia-
tion of his good work.

DOWN WITH RELIGION.

Socialism and anarchy must surely
be closely akin. The one certainly
leads to the other. In Utica, N. r.,
the Italian Socialist Federation held
its national congress on Tuesday.
Resolutions were adopted declaring
that all the churches are against the
emancipation of the working class
and for the protection and perpetua-
tion OF capitalism and moral and
economic slavery; that members
must sever their affiliation with any
