PATRIOTIC LEAGUE OF
FRENCH WOMEN.

There are not wanting evidences
that France is making a serious
effort to regain her lost prestige
in the Catholic world. One Of the
most hopeful Of these signs, and
one that promises abundant fruit,
is the work being done among
the Catholics Of France by the
Patriotic League Of French Wom-
en-.
This League is a national asso-
citation of French women whose
aim is ito conserve and propa-
gate the Faith, to defend and
vindicate it's legitimate rights by
every means which can be en-
ployed to that end.'' It's avowed
purpose is to promote the religi-
GUS training of children and to
infuse the Catholic spirit among
those who have grown cold and
Indifferent. It's program calls
for the instruction of the masses
by means Of a propaganda con-
Quoted through conferences,
courses Of study, and especially
through the press. The Govern
ment and the ruling powers Of
France, says writer in Register
Extension, are beginning to awake
to the Importance and the wide
reaching influence Of their work
and they fear this aroused wom-
anhood more than they ever
feared the apathetic manhood
which could be bribed and cajoled
by office and position.
The dominant note among the
members of the League is that of
personal service, of sympathy that
goes out to their sister women in
every department Of life. They
take special interest in the chill
dren whom they are striving to
save from the dangers INSOFAR
ably linked with education in the
neutral or lay schools of France.
The League has its headquar-
ters in Paris. In each diocese
there is a Central Council which
keeps in touch with the parish
councils and maps out the cam
paign for them. Six weekly peri
odicals keep the members in
formed Of what is being done in
different parts of the country and
one of these, LIE Petit Echo, has
almost half a million subscribers.
In addition, there is an illustrated
weekly for children. The work
Of the organization is carried on
by different sections as, for in
stance, that Of the press, confer
ences, teachers and instructors,
retreats and spiritual exercises,
etc. The results Of the campaign
are so encouraging that the
League is thinking of branching
out into new fields, as well as of
making the work international in
scope in order that it may have
the sympathy and assistance of
Catholic women in all the leading
countries Of the world. This
movement shows that Catholic
women of France are determined
to do their share in winning the
nation back to Christ, and the
prayers and good wishes Of Catho-
lies in every land will 60 out to
I them in unstinted measure.
