A MANIFESTATION OF FAITH

LII was LEuly Gull lug 10 DeuOlu
the evidences Of deep-rooted faith
on the part Of Catholics during the
Lenten season. The number of
people who willingly sacrificed
their bodily comfort and ease in
order to be present at daily Mass
was not inconsiderable. Among
those were many who had to work
hard every day in stores and Of
fees and who, on that score, might
justly have claimed to be exempt
from making any special effort to
attend an early Mass before be-
ginning the routine duties Of the
day. But all thought of self was
kept in the background. Their
lively faith in the efficacy of the
Mass as preparation for daily
toll was evidenced by the fervor
of their prayers before the Taber-
nacle. Their example ought to in
spire others to make similar efforts
and, especially, those who without
as much inconvenience and self
sacrifice, are in a position to at
tend the daily celebration of the
Holy Mass.
But it was especially during
Holy Week that the fervor and
faith Of our Catholic people
reached their zenith. The churches
were crowded at all the regular
services and frequently during
these days of solemn spiritual i'm
port the faithful could be seen Wis
iting our Lord in the august Sac
rament Of the Altar. On Holy
Thursday there was a continuous
stream of devout worshippers
prostrating themselves before the
Altar of Repose and pouring forth
! their gratitude and love to the
Divine Master for the inestimable
boon of the Blessed Eucharist.
On the following day at the Mass
of the Presanctifed and during
the Way Of the Cross they showed
their penitential spirit by follow
ing in the footsteps Of the suffer
ing Saviour and generating the
sacred symbol Of His Passion. On
Holy Saturday the eonfessionals
were thronged with penitents who
barred their souls beneath the alb
solving hand of the priest that
they might the more fully par
ticipate in the spiritual joy of the
Resurrection.
No one who attended Holy Week
services could fail to be impressed
with the faith of our Catholic peo-
pie. 1t was an outpouring of re-
ligious fervor which speaks vol
umes for the influence exercised
by the Catholic religion over those
who accept its doctrines, and
augurs well for the future of a
community that is so thoroughly
permeated with the leaven of
righteousness.

1t is wise ruling, that which
prevails in the Diocese of st. Paul
prohibiting professional theatrical
singers, whatever their personal
merits, from adjoining themselves,
even In transient way, to the
choirs of churches. The chanting
OF sacred music should be allowed
but the one purpose-that of
alteration and prayer. The Choir
lister must be effaced, and all atten-
ton directed towards the Euchar-
istic Lord. That this is not likely
to be done, when men or women,
in the glare of sought-for pub
licity, step from the theatrical
stage to the church organ-gallery,
is clearly manifest. Good inten-
tions do not suffice to ward off the
apparent intrusion of profane
spectacularism into the holy tenn
pie.

A NEW FIELD.

AC the request OF the night ReV-
erend Bishop Schinner Of Superior
we have made arrangements to in
troduce The Catholic Bulletin into
his diocese, which comprises the
northern part of the State of Wis
consin. Some weeks ago he wrote
a letter to the reverend pastors
of his diocese recommending The
Catholic Bulletin very highly and
urging them to use their good
Offices to extend it's circulation
among their people.
In this weeks issue, among the
diocesan news, we publish another
letter to the priests Of his do
cese in which the Right Reverend
Bishop asks them to adopt the
means which, from their knowl-
edge Of local conditions, are best
suited to accomplish this purpose.
He says with truth that cit has
not been the aim of The Catholic
Bulletin to displace other Catholic
papers, and continues, eff you
will succeed in placing The Cath
Ollie Bulletin in every Catholic
home in your congregation in
which. a Catholic paper is not. a
regular visitor, you will do a gen.
uine service to the Catholic cause,
for the number of such homes is
large enough in every congrega-
ton to be a fit subject for exhorta-
ton from the pulpit -
AS soon as the new Catholic
Directory is issued we will adj
dress letter to each of the rev.
erend pastors of the Diocese of
Superior, setting forth the pur-
pose and policy Of The Catholic
Bulletin, and outlining the different
plans utilized in extending it's cir
culation in parishes. We antici-
pate the most cordial cooperation
on their part because Bishop
Schinner assures us that they, as
well as he, appreciate the educa-
tional value of a good Catholic
family paper devoted exclusively
to Catholic interests and published
solely for the purpose of making
Catholics appreciate more highly
their Christian heritage and slim
ulating them to greater efforts in
the dissemination of the doctrines
Of the Church among those who
are not of the household Of the
Faith.
Bishop Schinner has named a
Diocesan Correspondent to furnish
The Catholic Bulletin with all
news Of general interest to the
Catholics Of the Diocese Of SUI
perior. This puts the Diocese of
Superior on the same footing as
those within the Province of St,
Paul.
The Catholic Bulletin is grateful
for this mark of appreciation on
the part of Bishop Schinner-the
more so that it was spontaneous
and unsolicited. We beg to as
sure him that it will strive to be
worthy Of his esteemed patronage.

Some time ago the Chicago
Daily Socialist gave considerable
space to report that a certain
Father Bowden of Kansas City
had joined the Socialists. For
years and years, according to the
report, Father Bowden, formerly
editor of The Catholic Leader of
Kansas City, had "raved and
tore" and preached and wrote
against that dreadful revolution
airy and agitating party, the So
cialists. - Then in moment of
fatal weakness he began to read
Socialistic literature in order to
show up more clearly and thor
oughly the dangers Of Socialism.
This opened his eyes. He discov-
cred his miserable mistake,' for
he found the Socialists dealing
with the causes Of the conditions
which he was so anxious to change
by "silly reform He then be-
came a Socialist because, forsooth,
he found he could not be Catho-
lie unless he was a Socialist
This article was republished in
other papers that place their col
umns at the disposal Of the advo-
Gates Of Socialism. It appeared
in recent issue of a certain paper
in the Northwest that carries a
department which is sold to the
"Socialist Local." as Irregular ad-
vertising space though the
editor adds that the department
"does not in any manner repre-
sent the editorial expressions" of
the paper in question.
Had the editor done little
investigating before giving promi-
hence to this alleged news item,
he would have found that there is
not a particle Of truth in it. It
turns out that Gather" Bowden
has no right to that title. He is
not even an ex-priest, for he never
was a priest. At one time he was
advertising solicitor for the Cath
Ollie Register Of Kansas City, but
he was discharged because of dis
crepancies in his accounts. He
then started a paper called the
Leader, not the Catholic Leader,
but it was short-lived. He after
wards became the promoter of a
questionable advertising scheme
called "Catholic Institutions in
Kansas" which also proved of
short duration. After these at
tempts to make a living as a Cath
Ollie he joined the Socialists and
styled himself, or was styled,
"Father Bowden, ex-priest Of the
Catholic Church. p" He knew that
the title "ex-priest'' would insure
his exploitation by Socialists and
anti-Catholics and in this he was
not mistaken. He seems to have
been fairly successful in dipping
those who are always ready to
give financial aid to "ex-priests,"
especially if they can tell we'll
concocted story about the terrible
things which the Catholic Church
is supposed to countenance.
The Catholic Register of Kansas
City from which he was dis
charged has this to say of him
che is too lazy to breathe and
without semblance of self-respect
or pride. We afterwards discov-
cred that his wife and sister did
the work that he was being paid
for. There is no limit to what he
will do to keep from working.
He was never. priest, did not
study for the priesthood, and as
an editor could not compose
two-line society local"
This is the Father" Bowden
who has been exploited by the
Socialists!

Why He Couldn't Sit Down.

Harry, aged six. is an orphan: but
an indulgent grandmother and kind
maiden aunt have taken care of him.
The first pair OF knickerbockers were
secured recently. and 1t was a proud
moment for the boy when his aunt
put them on him on Sunday morning
and he was permitted to go to church
with his grandmother. Naturally
maiden aunts know very little about
the arrangement OF knickerbockers.
and there was suspicious fullness in
front and an equally mystifying tight
ness In the back to be observed, as
the little chap trudged happily along.
In church Harry sat down, but did
not appear comfortable and stood up

grandmother. He obediently climbed

T.! LESS STRENUOUS TIMES
Explanation Of the Difference Be-
tween Domestic Standards Now
ana Those Of Long Ago.

In the Woman's Home Companion
there is an Interesting presentation OF
the difference that EXISTS between the
domestic standard OF young married
women of today and those OF the past
generation. How did the women OF
the middle class OF generation or
two ago manage when they could not
keep help: Following is the answer
quoted from a Companion editorial:
They lived according to their
means: they did not set up Impossible
standards, and they knew much less
about the science of bringing Up chill
dren. They had no special style TO
keep up; gave the children weekly
bath: kept the table set between
meals; did not serve their meals in
courses. but put all the food on the
table at once; confined their social
affairs to evening calls and parties.
and church suppers, at which they
wore the same black silk dress for at
least two seasons: in short, every
woman did only what she could, and
her friends made It easier for her by
doing likewise"

SLEEVES

Sleeves play such an important part
in the world of fashion that any change
where they are concerned is noticed
with great interest.
The French designers seem to follow
their own ideas; some feature the
three-quarter sleeve. others the long,
tight-ftting sleeve that forms a point
almost covering the back of he hand.
The full sleeve, gathered in at the wrist
with a band, is used upon many of the
gowns. Another sleeve appearing upon
gowns of thin materials is the long,
pointed winged sleeve.
The tight tailored sleeve is a promi-
nent favorite for suits and dresses of
heavy worsted materials.

the graceful Magyar style.

in Paris are the actresses. To them we

gown was composed entirely of white
and almost devoid of any ave self
trimming. The blouse was fashioned in

front outlined with two wide stitched

stitched bands and the same, trimming
was run from the shoulder to the waist
line at back. A rather shallow lace
collar extended across the blouse at the
back with a point at centre n a long
point Town over the top of each sleeve.
The sleeves were cut to just past the
elbow and were left wide and untitled.
The stitched bands were the only dec
grafton.
The skirt at front had a short apron
cut with scallops and finished at erge
with the taffeta band. This apron was
held to a deep apron at back extending
the full width of skirt and almost to
the edge. Large pearl buttons and
straps of the silk held the long and
short pieces together. The foundation
skirt was made plain and trimmed at
the foot with two puffings of the white.
With this gown was shown a hat
with tam-o'-shanter crown of white and
with slashed brim rolled back against
it, showing facings of black velvet. The
simple and sufficient ornament on the
hat was formed of white ostrich and
passed across the front of the hat a
little to the right.
