THE BREWERS PAGE.

The holiday edition of one Of
the Oldest Catholic weeklies in
America comes to our desk with a
page devoted to breweries and
their products. The page in ques-
ton contains thirteen advertise
ments and of these ten proclaim
the merits of beer.
We are not so narrow In our
views on the liquor question as to
maintain that it is morally wrong
for a Catholic paper to carry adj
vertisements that extol the prod
ucts of breweries and distilleries.
We believe, however, that reput-
able Catholic paper ought to scorn
such a source of revenue and not
throw the weight of its authority
and influence on the side OF those
who are catering to the depraved

DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE.
AMERICANS DRINK MOST BEER.

The United States consumes more
beer in the aggregate than any other
country In the world, and leads all
nations in the total consumption of
malt liquors, wines and distilled
spirits, with the enormous total OF
2,045, 100000 gallons. according to q
report OF the department of commerce
and labor made public some time ago.
The per capita consumption Of beer
In the United States was only 2O.09
gallons in 1910, while in Belgium it liz
$50 gallons, in the United Kingdom
31.44 gallons and in Germany 26.47 gal
Ions. Germany was second in the total
consumption OF beer and the United
Kingdom third.
In the consumption of wines France
leads with 1896 gallons per capita,
followed by Italy with ,31.17 gallons
and Portugal with 27.39. gallons. The
per capita consumption in the United
States is only about tWo-thirds OF a
gallon.
In distilled spirits Denmark leads
with the consumption of 297 gallons
per capita. Hungary second, with eli
gallons, and the Netherlands third,
with 1.S4 gallons. The United States
per capita consumption is Las.

appetities of their fellowmen. God
knows the liquor traffic has DONE
and is doing, harm enough to our
Catholic people in this country
without the aid of the Catholic
press. We can see little justifca-
ton for any Catholic paper cater
ing to the beer producing barons
Of America, whose power is great
enough at present without any
help and encouragement from such
a source.
In justice to Catholic journalism
it must be said that only very
few papers are willing to advertise
the liquor traffic. The majority Of
them steadfastly refuse to parade
the respective merits Of certain
brands Of beer and whiskey before
their readers. From the beginning
The Catholic Bulletin has taken a
determined stand on this question
and advertisements Of this char,
acter are excluded from its pages.
We believe that this is the proper
attitude for a Catholic paper to
take; and nothing short Of this
should be demanded from a
moulder of public opinion, an ex,
ponent Of the Church teaching.
Too often has the Catholic
Church been accused Of court
ing alliance with the saloon and
of being leagued with the pro-
moters Of the liquor traffic. I'm
fortunately, an appearance of
truth is lent to. this accusation by
the fact that many members Of her
fold are engaged in the manufac-
ture and sale Of alcoholic bev-
erages and many more are victims
Of the drink habit. But those who
are familiar with the DEGREES Of
the Third Plenary Council Of Balti-
more know full well that the Ca
tholic Church does not countenance
the liquor traffic in any way. In
these DEGREES the Church in Amer
lea legislated for pastors and peo-
pie and made known to the world
her attitude towards the drink
evil and the vice Of intemperance.
In them she declared in no uncer-
tain tones her unrelenting opposi-
ton to this "unbecoming bust
ness " In view Of her teaching on
this point how can a Catholic
paper conscientiously accept adj
vertisements from business
which the Church abhors and
which has wrought so much havoc
among her children? If it cannot
succeed without the revenue that
falls into its Golfers from such a
source it ought to be unwilling to
purchase prosperity at such a
price.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1912-01-13

able vice lies in the habitual recog-
milton of the presence Of God, in
culcating, as it does, reverence for
Him and for holy things, and the
Reorganization Of the Sacraments
which preserve the soul unsullied
in the midst Of the temptations by
which it is assailed. The good
which is being accomplished in
this country by the Holy Name So
cieties established to prevent the
use Of profanity, is due to their in
sistence upon Confession and Com
munion; and one who is addicted
to this vice need not be member
of such an organization in order
to avail himself of this salutary
means of breaking off a most
disgusting habit. Catholics, es-
.pecially, who have at their dis
posal this eficacious remedy for
|cursing and swearing should have
recourse to it frequently. They
are expected to give good example
to their non-Catholic friends and
acquaintance, whose reverence
for God and holy things is often,
apparently, deeper and more abid-
ing than that of those who have
the fullness Of divine truth.
The Feast Of the Holy Name
which the Church celebrates on
next Sunday suggests to all who
are wanting in reverence for God
and holy things the ACCESSIBILITY of
Ipledging themselves to- greater
Watchfullness in this regard in
order that they may never be
guilty of taking that Holy Name
in vain. There is nothing SO shock
ing as to hear the name Of Jesus
used unnecessarily and in a
fippant or blasphemous manner by
those who in their heart know
better but who, because Of past
negligence, have become con-
frmed in a vile habit. To such no
better resolution for the new year
can be suggested than the firm
determination to avoid profanity
of every kind and especially the
irreverent use Of the name Of
Jesus.

Philadnlnhia

A Philadelphia manufacturer,
Mr.. Kent, member of the Kent
Manufacturing Company, has
taken very effective way of saw
ing his employees from the drink
evil. He has furnished a list of
his workmen to the liquor dealers
of Delaware County and notified
them that they must not sell liquor
to any one whose name is on that
list. In explanation of his action
he said that he did not propose to
discharge his employees who in
dulged in drink because that
would cause their families to suf-
fer. He preferred to make them
steady, reliable workmen. Several
of his employees endeavored to get
liquor at some Of the places to
which notices had been sent but
the proprietors refused to serve
them. The liquor men declare

A VILE HABIT.

1t were useless to deny that
profanity is fearfully common in
this country and among all classes
of people. Young and old, rich
and poor, the educated and
the ignorant, the toilers and the
leisure class are more or less
slaves to the habit. One cannot
pass along the streets, travel in
cars or conveyances or mingle
with the crowd without having to
listen to conversation interlarded
with oaths and profane language.
There are many who are so adj
dicted to the habit that they can
scarcely open their mouths with
out using blasphemous or unbe-
coming expressions. Others, in
moments of anger or Impotence,
relieve their feelings by words
that shock the sensibilities Of their
fellowmen. Others, again, in
ordinary speech and without pro-
vocation, use language which be-
speaks the absence of good breed
ing and reverence for sacred
things.
Nor is this degrading vice con-
fined to any one class in particular.
The child in the street, the laborer
at his toll, the loafer on the street
corner, the business and the pro-
fessional n-all are to a greater
or less degree it's victims. Without
a thought of the consequences
parents give bad example to their
children and superiors to those
under their care by their profane
conversation. The public square,
the busy street, the mart of trade,
the privacy of home all are pol
luted by profanity. Laws have
been enacted making profanity in
public places a misdemeanor; but
who ever dreams of enforcing this
law? No one will maintain that
profanity is an evidence of good
breeding and yet. many who lay
claim to all that constitutes a
gentleman are enslaved by this
habit.
The worst feature of this is the
bad effect it has upon the rising
generation. One. cannot help
wondering what will become OF
the young boys whose tongues are
so glib in rolling off oaths and
blasphemy as to shock all who are
not SO depraved as they are. A
large measure Of the responsibility
for this state of affairs must be
placed upon the shoulders Of the
parents whose duty it is to safe
guard their children by giving
them a good example in this re-
gard and shielding them as much
as possible from contamination by
contact with those who are victims
of this degrading habit.
The only remedy for this deplor-

OLD TESTAMENT MANUSCRIPT
Discovered in Edinburgh-Ancient, but
Understanding and Binding
Only Clues to its Antiquity.

Professor Kennedy OF Edinburg
University, says the DEPOSITORY
Times" describes a hitherto unknown
manuscript of the Old Testament,
which he names the Codex Edinburg-
ensis, which he has discovered In the
Advocates Library, Edinburg. 1t is said
that for size, condition and caligraphy
1t has few rivals among similar manu-
scripts In any library in the world.
Strangely enough 1t has hitherto es-
capped the notice of Old Testament
scholars.
The manuscript is contained in two
huge folio volumes. The material ia
parchment, the leaves OF which are
bound up I'm quires OF eight folios
Is. e.. sixteen pages, with catchwords
at the left hand bottom corner OF
each quire.
Az 20 the difficult question rs to

there is no indication i'm the manu-
script itself I'm the shape OF colo
phon to any OF the books Of the date
or place OF writing, unless some ex-
pert In these matters can identity
the scribe. The character OF the
writing is thus the main clue at
present available and It shows that
it ia not very early manuscript, say
OF the tenth or eleventh century. On
the other hand the Codex cannot be
later than the fourteenth century.

From Augusta, Georgia, comes a
suggestion that is worthy of con-
sideration by Catholics in many
places. The news stand at the
Union. Depot IN that city has
refused to handle Tom Watson s
VIGOROUSLY bigoted magazine, be-
cause Catholics would not patro-
nize it as long as this nti-Catholic
publication was exposed for sale.
lie Catholics would exercise similar
vigilance where like conditions
prevail it would do much to pre-
vent the spread Of all kinds
of anti-Catholic literature. This
peaceful boycott would soon en-
able the proprietors Of such places
to see the error of their ways and
make a change for business
reasons.

FATHER sIEBENFoERcHER.

The death Of Rev. Anthony S. Sic
benfoercher, at st. Elizabeth's Hos
pital, Dayton, Ohio, removed one of
the most important factors for the
future development of the total alb
stinence cause in this country, says
the Catholic Abstainer" Of Philadel-
phia. He was the father of the move
ment for the organization of societies
among ecclesiastical students, realiz-
ing that the growth of the cause de-
ponds upon the priesthood, and that
the character of the priesthood, de-
ponds upon that of the seminarian
That the junior clergy for some years
to come will more than likely be
jealous preachers of the cause, not
only by word, but by example, will be
due in large measure to the work
of Father Siebenfoercher.
That the total abstinence movement
In the Church has attracted the atten-
ton of non-Catholics, and in con-
sequence made the way easier for
conversions, is evident from the fadt
that at his silver jubilee I'm 1886 fully
one hundred converts who were r$
ceived into the Church by Father Sic
benfoercher sat down at a special
dinner. He was thirty-five years ih
Kenton, and on the occasion Of his
funeral the entire town, without re-
gard to creed, paid him the last sad
tribute of respect. "A clerical
Friend" writing in the Catholic Co
lumbar" says that men OF the de-
ceased priests moral worth we've

century cactus" Personally, I am
not far from believing in the correct
ness Of the comparison" Speaking OF
his activity as total abstainer, the
same writer says: "At times he was
thought by many to be overzealous,
even to the verge OF imprudence. In
his anxiety to spread the practice Of
total abstinence. Be this as 1t may,
1t is perfectly true nevertheless that
I'm comparison with the temperance
enthusiasts, too many Of us, alas! are
guilty OF too much Indifference and
too much torpidity In that very direc-
ton"

The Feast Of the Holy Name Of
Jesus celebrated so soon after the
opening of the new year suggests
a way in which all who are ad-
dicted to cursing and swearing
may labor for their spiritual well
fare during the next twelve
months. Reverence for the Sacred
Name Of our Lord demands that
it rest not lightly ON Christian
lips. The Scriptural axiom "out
Of the abundance Of the heart the
mouth speaketh, " is as true today
as ever it was. A pure heart
means clean speech.

REASONS FOR TEMPERANCE.

Four excellent reasons are given
for temperance. First, it is duty we
owe to God. Drunkenness Is a fruit
full source of evil in the world. Con-
vinced Of this it becomes our duty to
practise temperance and encourage
others to do the same. Second, it is
q duty we owe the Church. Third, it
10 duty we owe to our country; and
fourth. it is duty we owe ourselves.
Four good reasons, and meditation on
your part will show you their force.

Our Diocesan Supplement is
gradually taking shape. 1t will be
valuable record Of the material
progress of the Diocese during the
past year if the Reverend Pastors
under whose supervision the cree
ton of parochial buildings was
carried on furnish the data
for their respective parishes. We
have written personal letters. to
them and have already received
many assurances of cooperation.
We hope to have all the material
on hand in the course Of week
or ten days.
