The remainder Of the half was spent
in battling up and down the field with

Cochrans bad knee put him out early
in the game, he being replaced by
Paul Heffner, who was relieved by

THE JESUIT OATH.

From time to time there appears
in the columns Of anti-Catholic
publications copies of what pur-
ports to be the Jesuit oath. This
is a solemn oath supposed to be
taken by a Jesuit when he is adj
mitted to full membership in the
Society. Among other things it
declares that the Jesuit renounces
his allegiance to Protestant rulers
and states, pledges himself to ex-
tirpate heretical doctrines and to
wage relentless war, openly and
secretly, against all Protestants in
an effort to destroy them from the
face Of the earth by fire and
sword, the poison cup and the
leaden bullet, without regard to
rank, or age, or sex. To give this
"oath" the proper setting it is
supposed to be taken in the
presence Of the Most Blessed Sa-
crament and to be signed with a
dagger dipped in the blood of the
newl y-admitted Jesuit.
It is unnecessary to state that
this oath has no existence except
in the imagination Of anti-C Catholic
writer's and preachers. Every
Catholic and every well-informed
Protestant knows that there is no
such thing as a Jesuit oath. The
Society of Jesus was founded for
other purposes than those set forth
in this bogus oath. Nevertheless, it
has been made to do yeoman serv-
ice in arousing bigotry and oppo-
sition to the Catholic Church on
the pretense that the Bishops and
priests of this country are banded
together for the purpose of de-
stroying American institutions. Tt
is hard to convince certain class
of people that the Catholic Church
is the staunchest upholder of the
principles set forth in the Consti-
tuition of this Republic, and that
the influence of the Catholic re-
igion is the greatest power for
good within the land. This alleged
Jesuit oath is put forth as an
evidence that Catholic clergymen
are enemies of the commonwealth.
Some time ago the "Boston
Citizen, the organ of the A. P. A,
and of the so-called Guardians of
Liberty, was asked to print the
Jesuit oath. This is its reply pub
hshed editorially in its issue of
February II, 1912:

STRANGER THAN FICTION.

A strange story comes from
France-a sequel to the death of
Archbishop Attire Of Paris who re-
ceived a mortal wound on June Is,
1848, while striving in vain to stem
the tide Of fratricidal fury that
was drenching the streets Of Paris
with the blood Of her citizens. In
the act of pleading for peace he
was struck down by a bullet. Was
the fatal ball fired intentionally?
This question, says the Liverpool
Times, has often been debated in
France, and the discussion has
now been revived and, it would
appear, decisively settled. The
"Eclair" having been informed
that tradition On the subject was
preserved in the Archbishop s
family, wrote for information to
one Of it's members, M. Denis
Fabre, formerly a sub-prefect, of
whose grandmother Mgr. Attire
was a brother. NJ. Fabre has re-
piled that fifteen years ago Capu-
chin Fathers who came from Toll-
louise to Montpelier to preach a
mission, told his aunt, Madame R.
Laurens, that Mgr. ATTIRE was shot
down Intentionally, and that the
murderer, smitten by remorse, en-
tered their convent and edited the,
community by long years of
austere penance. The grace of
repentance was, doubtless, OBJ
tanned for him by the Archbishop s
sacrifice.

In letter to The Catholic News
of New York, Andrew J. Shipman
tells of a visit which he made to
the Church Of Notre Dame in
Geneva, Switzerland, last August,
while it was yet under the control
of the Old Catholics. He supposed
that he was in a Catholic Church
until he noticed the small number
Of people present at Mass and be-
came aware of the fact that the
service was being conducted in
French instead of Latin. 81 re-
mained," he says, until towards
the Conservation intent on study
ing any variations made in the
Roman form of the Mass-for to
an onlooker who does not per-
ceive that French has been sub
stituted for Latin, the order of the
service, the vestiments, and
demeanor of the priest give him a
full impression of the Roman
rite. " Geneva is today more Cath
Ollie than Protestant. Notwith-
standing this, the Genevan papers
and Baedecker's "Switzerland"
do not mention the fact that there
are six Catholic churches in the
city, although they give a list of
Reformed, Anglican, Methodist,
Presbyterian and Christian Catho-
lie churches with their locations
and hours Of service. 1t is graft
flying to know that the Church of
Notre Dame and other churches
taken from the Catholics quarter
of century ago have been
restored to their original owners
during the past few months.

TIIE CATHOLIC BULLETIN, AUGUST 10, Ie12.

South America as well as the Fill
pinos are Catholics, and expert
ence has taught that they do not
take kindly to any other form of
religion, They may not reject
the proffer of Bibles by the Ameri-
can Bible Society but there is
little danger that a great harvest
of conversions to Professionalism
will result therefrom.
We are told that during the
past century nearly 46,000.0OO
copies Of the Protestant Bible
were distributed among the Chin
csc, and of these, according to a
writer in America" "about
ninety per cent is lost, a large pro-
portion being used for making the
soles of Chinese boots and shoes,
and the balance being turned to
other uses, like wrapping up medi-
cine and fruit. - This is not in
comprehensive in view Of the
fact that Bibles and tracts are
distributed by the millions and
shipped by the ton! 1t is costly
method Of making converts to
Professionalism, but there seems to
be no limit to the amount of
money available for such work.
We do not look for any great
accession to the ranks of Protes-
tantism from the tons Of Bibles
shipped into South America.

Zone who follows the fashions
does not follow Jesus This start
ling announcement placarded on
the doors of a church in North
Italy attracted the attention of
the people as they were about to
enter for the purpose of hearing
Mass one Sunday not long ago. 1t
was preceded by the statement
that "those dressed according to
the liberal fashions are not sup
posed to enter, nor will their offer
ings be accepted" This method
was taken by the parish priest to
prevent display of vulgar
costumes ON the part Of the women
of his parish. The plan proved
successful and the nuisance was
abated How many of our Catho-
lie women need a reminder that
the House of God is not the place
to display their scantily-clad
figures?
