NO CO-EDUCATION.

During the past week the daily
papers in the course of their very
brief references to the Catholic
Educational Convention held in
Chicago, gave publicity to an an
nouncement, purporting to have
been made at that Convention to
the effect that the Church is about
to introduce co-education into
some of her schools. It was said
that the Catholic University of
Washington was about to open it's
doors to women students. and
that the Sisters of Charity of the
Blessed Virgin have completed
plans for the establishment of a
co-educational college in Chicago.
The report adds that this is said
to be the most radical departure
ever made by Catholic educators.
There is no doubt that this would
be most radical change in the
educational methods of Catholic
schools, if there was any truth in
the report. There is, however, not
the slightest foundation in fact
for the statement that anything
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1911-07-08

of the kind is contemplated in
Catholic educational circles.
Some enterprising reporter, no
doubt, learned, what others have
known for long time, that nor
NAL school for Catholic Sisters
and lay teachers is to be estab-
lished in connection with the
Catholic University, Washing
ton, and allowed his imagination
free reign. The sensational state
ment deceived no one who is at
all familiar with the attitude Of
the Church towards co-education.
She will never allow the indis-
criminate co-mingling Of young
men and women in her education
al institutions; and her attitude
towards this important question is
being accepted by many non-Cath-
Ollie institutions which once were
co-educational but which have been
honest enough to confess their mis-
take and reform their methods.
The normal school which the
Catholic University proposes to
open for the training Of women
teachers will have no connection
with that institution except in so
far as some of it's teachers will be
drawn from the Catholic Univer-
sity. There will be no co-educa-
ton at the University or elsewhere
in Catholic institutions.

1t is interesting to note that
many Of the old Irish families have
prefxed "de' to their names, as
de Ryan, de Kelly, de O'Toole, de
Sullivan, etc. We presume that
this is sign of distinction, a sort
Of patent of nobility which dis
tinguishes those who have merited

who yet tread the common way.
The list will grow, no doubt, for,

of their ancestors and achieve

A CONTRAST.

One Of the very few discordant
notes struck in connection with
the coronation of the King of Eng
land came from the Pacific coast
where the California State Board
of the A. O. HI. passed resolutions
to observe the day as "a day of
prayer and commemoration for
the dead millions of our race who
have been the victims Of British
atrocities. Nor were they con-
tent with that. They pledged
themselves to labor to bring back
to Ireland the Lila Fail or
Stone of Destiny which is now
incorporated in the coronation
chair in Westminster Abbey" and
to insist upon "the restoration Of
the Emerald Gem Of the western
world that was set in the crown
of a stranger. "
These pathetic and poetic reso-
lutions, if brought to the attention
Of King George, will, no doubt,
cause His Majesty many heart
throb Of sorrow over the events
of the dead past which they recall
and for which he is held respon-
sible. To this will be added anxiety
about the future Of the "Stone Of
Destiny,' upon which he sat at
the coronation.
These resolutions would not
merit the briefest reference did
they not breathe a spirit so differ
ent from the dignifed and ap-
propriate expression Of loyalty
contained in the message sent by
His Eminence Cardinal Logue on
behalf of the real Ireland, the Irish
Church: eve the Catholic Bishops
of Ireland in general meeting at
Maynooth beg to tender to Your
Majesty, and to Her Majesty, the
Queen, our cordial congratulations
on the forthcoming solemn occa-
sion Of the coronation and to wish
you every blessing and pros
perity.''

cit is the Baptist Church that
dares to stand against the world
today, and it is the Baptist Church
that will rule the world tomor-
row." declared Rev. DR.. F. B.
Meyer of London, President of the
Worlds Sunday School Associa-
ton, at a recent meeting of the
Worlds Baptist Alliance in Phil
adel phia. This sweeping asser-
ton must have startled the more
thoughtful among his hearers, and
prompted them to seek proof of
its truth. It is very doubtful if
even microscopic evidence in sup
port of this declaration can be adj
duced. The report goes on to say
that DR.. Meyer is long past the
three score and ten; and it is
charitable to suppose that an old
mans proclivity to claim the
world as his own, especially if he
has been prominent in any partic-
ular sphere of activity, is respon-
sible for this outburst.

Judge Schofield of the Superior
Court of Newburyport, Mass, in
a recent decision declared the Y.
M. C. A. exempt from taxation on
the ground that it is a religious
body. The local organization had
brought suit against the city for
the recovery of the taxes paid by
its Directors on legacy the in
come of which was to go to it's
support. The plea was made on
behalf of the association that the
Y. NJ. G.. A. was distinctively re-
ligious organization holding Sun
day meetings, bible classes, and
doing other work that is common
ly considered religious.
1t is well to remember this deci-
sion whenever the Y. M. G. A. ap-
peals to the public at large, on the
plea of non-sectarianism, for funds
to carry on it's work. 1t takes
some Catholics long time to di-
gest the knowledge that the Y
M. G. A. is a religious association
but by degrees the realization OF
this truth is being brought home
to them so forcibly that if they
contribute to the maintenance Of
the Y. M. c. A. they do so with &
knowledge that they are support
ing a sectarian institution.

IMPRUDENT UTTERANCES OF
CATHOLIC EDUCATORS.

The eight annual convention of
the Catholic Educational Associa-
aion Of the United States was held
in Chicago the last week of June.
It brought together quite a large
number of the prominent Catholic
educators of the country for the
purpose Of discussing the various
phases of the educational problems
that confront the Church in
America. Much good, no doubt,
will result from the deliberations
of those who have at heart the
welfare of Catholic educational
institutions Of all classes. Their
views will be reflected in the press
and preached from the pulpit. The
renewed interest thus awakened
in subject Of such vital impor-
lance will bring home to Catholics
the necessity Of giving their
children as thorough a Catholic
education as lies within their
reach.
For this the convention deserves
commentator; and from no one
will it receive it in more bountiful
measure than from the pastors
and teachers who are vitality con-
cerned in the success Of every at
tempt to improve the methods of
the Church's educational system
and extend it's salutary benefits to
every Catholic child.
The convention would have en-
HANGED it's prestige had it dis
cussed all the topics brought be-
fore it in calm and deliberate
manner. 1t is a grave question
whether or not the imprudent and
Incorporate utterances of some OF
the delegates did not detract from
the value of the work done by the
convention and do almost ir.
remediable injury to the cause IL
the interest of which it was con
voked. In this connection two
points are worthy of special men
ton.

builders. 1t was therefore their duty
to show an example Of unison and
peace In their faith and to do their
best to bring about such a unison
among those outside the Catholic
Church. BY their example and their
prayers they must work, that one
day the good time would come back
when throughout not only the length
and breadth OF that England that was
Catholic for thousand years, but
throughout the length and breadth
of that greater territory which Eng
land now centered as the heart, there
should be once more one law, one
baptism, one faith, one fold and one

assembled to see the troops march
away with their bands playing mar
tial music and they were loudly
cheered as they passed along Victoria
Street.

THE USE OF WINE.

Humanity in general, sober as well
as drunk, has always appreciated wine
and regarded it as a rational thing to
take. Holy Scripture reflects this
judgment of humanity, and gives di-
vine confirmation to tat the same
time pointing out the depraving effects
of excess, and cautioning people
against it's dangers.
Some passages might be pressed in
favor of total abstinence; but on the
whole, Scripture casts no slur on the
moderate or ordinary use of wine.
Had the human race stuck to wine
land beer) moderately fermented, the
drink question would never have be-
come a serious one. 1t is the more
recent Introduction of stronger and
more subtle drinks such as brandy and
whiskey, excessive alcoholization, and
especially poisonous adulteration, as
well as the mixing of drinks-some-
times practiced as a fine art of de-
bauchery-which has made the most
part of the mischief; and the high
pressure and neurasthenia of modern
life has much to do with it too.
The medical profession is divided
on the ultimate question. All seem to
admit that alcohol as such, is chemi-
cally what we call poison; and
there is growing tendency to believe
that the less a man takes of alcohol
the better. But we have never been
satisfied with the contention that
every minimal dose is fraught with
injury to the system-or in other
words, that every use of alcohol is an
abuse.
This Is view which common sense,
and Christian tradition, and even
Christian theology will always oppose
from the practical point of view. The
sound position therefore is to abstain
from the absolute and universal con-
demnation of the use of alcoholic
drink; to enlarge on the very serious
mischief which follows from it's i'm
moderate use, and on the difficulties
felt by many in observing moderation.
Hence total abstinence can be
preached to all who experience dan
ger, and even inculcated upon those
present-provided this is done in such
way as to avoid turning total abstin-
ence into dogma, or casting GEN.
sure on those who claim to continue
the moderate use of alcohol without
perceptible detriment either to health
or conduct.
Attempts to prove that the wine
recommended in Scripture and used
by Our Lord was unfermented, or of
such quality as never to make men
drunk, are more ingenious than con-
vincing. We quite admit that man
who is himself a total abstainer by
free choice can always preach total
abstinence to others with greater eff
feet; and we should not quarrel with
any one who took up this kind of NOR
LITIGATION with that object in view.
But there must be no Manicheism
about it.

But it falls as doth the rain
On the earth to make it sweet
With rare blossoms at ones feet.
Where it falls upon the soil
Of the hearts of cheer and toll
They look up with clearer eyes
To the all-beholding skies!"

,he American nation could be divided into two
classes, boilers and cheWcrs, with the boilers
leading by a large majority. Or. II. c. Sex
ton of Shol1ryi.v. Ind. III q meeting OF the
Indiana Dental association delivered an inter
cstiug address In which he Gellored this habit
and advised that a national movement should
be organized to b known rs the chewing
movements" He said. The education Of the
average man, woman and child las been sadly
neglected. They have not been taught TO use
their teeth. When We bolt our food We ignore
one Of the most important ferments, ptyalin
IN saliva, that has much to do in the
process Of digestion But the American habit
is to spit and Americans are the greatest spit
tiers of the world Between meals they will
spit out the invaluable saliva, then when they
eat they wash down every unchewed bolus Of
food with copious draughts Of water, coffee, or
In summer iced tea. What foolish. disgust
ing habit 1t is and more than foolish more
than disgusting, it is killing in Its hurtfulness
1t has been stated that fully 70 per cent
Of the people Of this country bolt their food.
This habit is usually acquired during the early
years of childhood and carried during ones
whole life.
1t should be the duty Of all parents to make
their children eat slowly and chew their food
properly. Nature has placed these teeth in
our mouth for purpose, very valuable pur-
pose, too, and if we neglect to properly
them we are inviting conditions that seriously
threaten our health and general welfare.
Diseases Of the nose and mouth have
great influence upon the dental arch of the
mouth. particularly adenoid growths in the
nose. If the nose is filed up with these ade-
nOlds the free passage of air along the nasal
membranes becomes INSTRUCTED and results
in the child becoming what is known as a
mouth breather" In this change from the
normal physiological nasal breathing the den
tai arch is deformed and irregular teeth s
the result. Many of these cases are deplor-
able, for It not only impairs the ability Of the
individual to masticate food properly, but It
tnterferes with the voice and changes the
whole facial appearance Of the person. An
other deplorable condition due to these nasal
growths is the effect they may have on the
mentality of the child. They become stupid,
forgetful. inattentive and lack the power Of
mental concentration. This Is caused by
these growths obstructing the Emphatic cir
culatlon Of the brain, preventing the proper
supply Of nutrition so essential to its develop
ment. These adenoid growths not only affect
the dental arch Of the mouth, but they are the
frequent causes of deafness in children. Dr.
w. A. Mills Of Baltimore, discussing this sub
ject at a recent meeting of Washington den
lists, said, "one-half our idiots and insane in
our institutions today as the result OF
