United Brethren

United Brethren have just launched a
Good News Association, and have made
il possible to employ. through 1t. five
spreaders of such news. A committee of
Pennsylvania and Ohio. members of the
United Brethren Church, is behind the
association, which1s to be Incorporated.
On a tentative plan the enterprise was
begun last winter. 1t succeeded to such
extent that this summer it has been put
into permanent form, and will enter up
on active work In September.
The new campaign is the old fash
ioned evangelistic one on the newest
plan. 1t is made up of a leader, a pro-
fessional singer, a worker with and for
children, pianist. and a secretary-an
evangelistic band, foot loose to go wher-
ever desired, and remain as long as the
result warrants A central body finances
the enterprise; that Is 1t is in effect en-
dowed. so that all trouble over local
money support is avoided. This initial
band well established in the field. 1t is
the announced purpose of the association
to send out other bands as financial sup
port makes 1t possible. 1t is stated that
among United Brethren the demand for
good evangelistic work is far beyond the
supply.

Catholic

What is promising to be the greatest
parade of Catholic laymen America has
yet seen will take place in Louisville to-
morrow as an opening feature of the
eleventh annual convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Catholic Societies.
Archbishop Bonzano will sing pontifical
high mass on the morning Of the date
named. the sermon being preached by
Bishop McFaul of Trenton. one OF the
founders OF the federation. Gov. Nc
Creary of Kentucky. Archbishop Messmer
of Milwaukee, National President Feeney
of Brooklys. a negro and an Indian
priest will have parts on the programme.
Thousands will attend from every
diocese.
A question of vital Importance to come
up at Louisville relates TO membership
in the federation, and the part OF
women societies in it. Thus far women
have belonged on the same terms as
men, or nearly the same, but now there
is a plan to form a federation OF
women's societies on the same lines as
the federation for men. The plan has
gained some strength, and women attend
ing at Louisville are expected to ad-
vance II in conferences there. Some
clergy belong to the Federation, but the
direction Is for the most part in the
hands of laymen. Strongly religious. and
always IdlRDlAt. tht Jhsl hc"
entering upon its second decade, has been
one of the vital forces in the develop
ment of Catholic interests and progress
in America.
German Catholics are leading in efforts
to teach to Catholic laity what their
church regards as sound social views.
Last year the first conference of Catholic
social leaders was held at Fordham Uni
versity, New York. 1t was fairly sue
cassful second conference has just
been held in the same university. During
the same period a new conference on
social affairs was held in Wisconsin. the
plan being to get hold of sociological
leaders. clerical and lay, both in the
East and in the West.
The plan OF these Catholic leaders is
to show to the common people in Catho-
lie news the history OF labor and social
agitation from the Middle Ages to the
present, and what position the Catholic
Church has taken An encyclical issued
by Pope Leo XIII not long before his
death is the groundwork of the instruc-
ton Clergy in parishes, professors In
colleges and such laymen as will take
hold and help are used to do the actual
instructing. and these conferences are.
therefore. not only 10 give lectures OF
those who are 10 teach. but also to map
out methods and programmes that may
have, national scope
The ultimate purpose of the Germans
is to combat the Socialists. The work
is confined TO Catholics, but in some ot
their plans they have enlisted the friend
ly cooperation of Jews and Protestants
The principal speakers at the conferences
Just held were Rev. II. J. Maekel. s. j..
Of Canisirs College. Buffalo. a foremost
social worker and leader In that city. his
efforts extending to city and county pris'
on reform and having the cooperation
of the Charity Organization Society. and
Rev John A. Ryan, professor of So
GEOLOGY in ST. Paul University. About
$50 men, half Of them laymen. attended
the two conferences. Many were college
