Oh Lord, how wondrous is Thy name
The wide earth cannot hold Thy fame
And far above the arching sky,
Rises sublime Thy majesty.
From infants mouths Of tender days
Oh Lord, hast Thou perfected praise;
For weakness in Thy hand is made
Against the foe shield and blade
Now will look on heavens blue dome
Of sun and moon and stars the home
All in their proper courses stayed,
And each one by Thy fingers made
For mans delight; and who is man
That he is first within Thy plan?
Thy hand didst glory round him
fling;
Thou mad'st him of Thy works the
king;
The sheep and oxen of the field,
And cen the wild beasts to him yield
The birds that circle far and free,
The fish that cleave the briny sea-
Oh Lord, the wonders of Thy name
The earth and sea and sky proclaim

LENTEN REGULATIONS

ple' from the abstinence on Vigils
and Ember days, except when such
Vigils and Ember days fall on Friday.
Pastors will make to their flocks,
in the usual terms, due announce
ments a statement of the privileges
given by the Indult to working peo-
ple."
General Remarks.
When doubt exists as to whether
ones condition or circumstances al
low exemption from the precepts of
fasting and abstinence, counsel should
be asked from confessors or pastors,
who are the authoritative interpreters
of the law, and who even are en-
powered in special cases, for good and
sufficient reasons indicated or sug-
gested in Catholic theology, to COM
mute the precepts of fasting and abb
stinence to other penitential works.
In enjoining upon the faithful the
precepts of fast and abstinence, Holy
Church is mindful of the evangelical
law of self-denial, of which the
Saviour and His apostles were, by ex-
ample and by word, most eminent
teachers. Without self-denial there is
no Christianity. Indeed, without self.
denial there is no natural morality. The
man who has not acquired by habit
the power of self-restraint will not be
victorious over sin amid the storms
and temptations of life which all are
compelled to encounter.
The observance of the fasts and
abstinences prescribed by the Church
is taken as public and fearless pro-
fession of Catholic faith. He who,
without sufficient or obvious reasons,
eats meat or takes his usual meals
when abstinence or fast is enjoined,
becomes an occasion of scandal, and
is not accepted as a practical Catho-
| lie.
Let Catholics, therefore, have the
courage of self-denial for the sake of
Christ and of their own souls, and be
on their guard lest by their acts scan
dal be given, and the fair name of
their religion be dishonored
During Lent pastors will hold spe-
cial exercises of devotion in their sew
eral churches at appointed times. In.
structions of practical character
upon the Christian duties, the nature
of the sacraments, and the prepara-
tion for their reception, should be
given on those occasions.
The devotion of the Way of the
Cross will be observed, if at all pos
sible, in all churches and chapels on
the Friday evenings throughout Lent.
+JOHN IRELAND,
Archbishop of st. Paul.
Whatever collection is taken up in
churches on Good Friday is, as usual,
according to letter of the Holy
Father, to be applied in aid of the
missions of Palestine.

4 NAVAJO VOCABULARY
Valuable Works of the Franciscan
Fathers of Arizona.

In 1910 the Franciscan Fathers of
St. Michael, Arizona, published an
"Ethnologic Dictionary of the Navajo
Language" volume of some five
hundred pages. The work was a
novel experiment in lexicography inso-
much as the Fathers sought to bring
their readers in closer touch with the
domestic, religious and social life Of
the Navajo, rather than to present a
cut and dried list of words only. Books
dealing with our American aborigines
are not much sought for and Indian
folklore is not much in demand. Yet
it is surprising that this work, pub
lished by monks who are not eth
nologists by profession, should have
had such success with scholars and
men Of note as to call forth universal
encomium and genuine admiration.
Indeed, the Fathers have been cen
sured only in so far that they limited
the edition to 200 copies, all of which
were underwritten in advance of pub
| lication.
Equally unique in character is their
latest publication "a Navajo vocabu>
larry, English-Navaho and Navajo Eng
lish," two volumes. The plan seems
to be to arrange the words alphabet
cally, but interspersed with the text
are numerous notes containing
valuable ethnologic information. While
in the Ethnologic Dictionary we have
a series of essays dealing with the
Navajo, sociologically, industrially,
and in his religious life, the present
work gives us new and additional in
formation in q concise form, which
shows that the Fathers are continuing
"the grand pioneer work of the old
Franciscan Order" And what pains
taking, patient piece of work it is!
Each title seems to be part of a
mosaic calling for so much labor I'm
collecting, verifying, analizing and
adding the finishing touch. And as to
the ethnographic notes, those familiar
with the ways and suspicious charac-
ter of the Indian, alone can realize the
greatness of the task undertaken years
ago and accomplished with such evil
dent success. On the whole, the work
carries with it the stamp of authority
on Navahoana, though the Fathers
modestly call it "a" Navajo vocabu-
larry. Undoubtedly much remains to
be done, but as a basis on which to
build it impresses one as exceptionally
well laid. The edition is limited to-
S25 copies, each Of which IL numbered
and signed.

Citizens Committee Present 100000
to the Most Reverend Archbishop
for the New Cathedral-A Tribute
to His Personal Wortk.

Some months ago it was announced
that the citizens of st. Paul, irrespec-
tive of class or creed, had decided to
contribute the sum of 100000 to the
new Cathedral as tribute of respect
and admiration for the Most Reverend
Archbishop. Since then the committee
has worked quietly among the business
and professional men of ST. Paul and
succeeded in securing cash and
pledges for this amount, which is to
be expended in completing the dome
of the new Cathedral.
Last Saturday evening the members
of the committee met at the Arch
bishops residence on Portland Ave
nue. and presented the testimonial.
The ceremony was simple and in
formal. The presentation speech was
made by Colonel Paul Doty, chairman
of the committee, who said:
"In the presentation of the dome
fund, wish to express, on behalf of
the citizens of st. Paul, the spontane-
GUS desire that has made possible this
gift. 1t is token of the reverence
we have for you. Many who have
contributed to this fund know you.
Many you know. They have thought
of the good you have done for st. Paul,
for the state and the nation. They
have the highest regard for your
worth. They realize that in time of
unrest it is good that they may turn
to you for inspiration.
mot all who have donated to this
fund are of one faith, but, regardless
of that fact, we wanted to have some
part in the erection of this magnii-
cent Cathedral. The donation I offer
represents cash subscribed, credit and
pledges to the sum of 100000. 1t
comes not from the rich, nor from the
poor, but from all in st. Paul who
know and like you, and wish to see
the Cathedral assured
"Some of the donations have been
only a dollar A few have been as
much as $2,500 Money, however, is
not to be considered when the senti-
ment of the gift is at stake. We trust
that your life will be spared to see this
noble work accomplished, and that you
may see the realization of your fond
est hope"
