LABOR LEGISLATION IN
MINNESOTA.

ed. Hence the only employers whom
the law would injure would be those
who strive to Guido their competitors
not by better service to the consumer
but by cutting down wages to the
starvation point. A general minimum
wage would compel such employers
to rise to the same level as their bet
ter competitors, or to get out of bust
ness. 1t would compel them to OBJ.
serve the rules of the game. When
this was done, the better employers
would be able to pay even higher
wages than they had been able to
pay in the face of unfair and wage.
cutting competition.
No Valid objection to the Law.
Every economist who has consid.
cred the question at all maintains
that there is no valid objection to a
legal minimum wage from the side
of economics or from the side of bust
ness. Such law would no more
tend to increase the cost of produc-
ton or to lessen employment than
laws which shorten the working day,
or which compel employers to install
costly safety devices in their facto-
ries Moreover, a minimum wage
fixed by law could have no other
economic or industrial results than a
minimum wage fixed by a trade
union. In both cases a limit is set
below which no employer is allowed
to hire workers Those of us who
would be glad to see the women
workers obtain decent living wages
by organization, cannot logically OBJ
ject to the attainment of the same
object by law.
"It may be asked whether wom-
ems wages are so low in Minnesota
as to demand such law in this state.
They certainly are. In 1910 the
state bureau of labor found that one
fourth of the woman workers were
getting less than six dollars a week,
and that fully half of them were get
ting less than seven. Now, no per-
son who has studied the subject
would dare to assert that a woman
can live a reasonable moral life on
less than seven dollars a week in any
moderately large-sized city of the
United States. Most authorities place
the minimum at eight dollars for all
large cities, and some of them put it
as high as nine or even ten for cities
like New York and Chicago.
"My own view is that this minim-
UNI wage bill is the most important
of all the labor measures before our
legislature. 1t is certainly the most
fundamental; for it affects the health
and morals, and development of a
large section of the future mothers
of our state. The degeneration OF
working women on account of insult.
ficient wages has happily not gone
so far in Minnesota as in some of the
older commonwealth. The evil is
much more easily remedied in our
state because the remedial work is SO
largely work of prevention If we
fail to perform this task while it is
still relatively simple, we shall de-
serve the severest condemnation"

In your issue of February % you
say: "The Blessed Virgin is in no
sense of the word Divine. She is a
human being like unto u.s." Will
you kindly explain how you reconcile
this statement with the dogma of the
Immaculate Conception?
Why do you think there is need of
reconciliation? There is no sort of
opposition or contradiction between
these statements. Both are state
ments of fact in accordance with the
teaching of the Church. We took
considerable pains some time ago to
explain fully the doctrine of the I'm
maculate Conception and any one
who understands that dogma will
never ask question such as the fore
going. OF course, the Blessed Virgin
is not divine. No one who under
stands the teaching of the Church
ever contended that she is partici-
pator in the divine nature. She is
human being like unto us. Her I'M
maculate Conception does not imply
that she was in any sense of the
word divine person or participated
in any degree in the divine attri-
butes. BY the Immaculate Concep-
ton the Church teaches that the
Blessed Virgin was, from the very
hrst moment that she began to live

THE DAWN OF PEACE

(AIfred Noyes in the New York
Times).
Yes; ION our brows we feel the breath
Of dawn" though in the night we
wait;
An arrow is in the heart of death,
A god is at the doors of fate!
The spirit that moved upon the deep
Is moving through the minds of
men;
The nations feel it in their sleep
A change has touched their dreams
again.
Voices, confused and faint, arise,
Troubling their hearts from east
and west;
A doubtful light is in their skies,
A CLEAN that will not let them rest;
The dawn, the dawn is on the wing,
The stir of change on every side,
Unsignaled as the approach of spring,
Invincible as the hawthorn tide.
Have We not heard it, far and nigh,
The voice of France across the
dark,
And all the Atlantic with one cry
Beating the shores of Europe?
Hark!
Then-if We will-uplift your word
Of cynic wisdom! Once again
Tell us He came to bring a sword,
Tell us He lived and died in vain
Say that we dream! Our dreams have
woven
Truths that OUTAGE the burning
The lightnings, that we dreamed, have
cloven
Time, space, and linked all lands in
one.
Dreams! But their swift celestial fin
gers
Have knit the world with threads
of steel,
Till no remotest island fingers
Outside the worlds great common
veal
Tell us that custom, sloth, and fear
Are strong, then name them "com-
mon sense!"
Tell us that greed rules everywhere,
Then dub the lie experience"
Year after year, age after age,
Has handed down, thro' fool and
child,
For earth's divinest heritage
The dreams wherein old wisdom
smiled.
Dreams, are they? But We can not
stay them,
Or thrust the dawn back for one
hour!
Truth, love, and justice, if We slay
them,
Return with more than earthly
power;
Strive, if We will, to seal the foun
tains
That send the spring thro' leaf and
spray;
Drive back the sun from the eastern
mountains,
Then bid this mightier movement
stay.
The hour of peace is come! The ma

LENT AND ITS LITURGY
CUSTOMS AND CEREMONIES OF
LENT EXPLAINED BY REV. F. A.
NEWSoME IN THE LIVERPOOL
CATHOLIC TIMES.

1t is open to doubt whether more
than one Catholic out of ten could say
off-hand what is the exact number of
days in Lent. Most people would as
sert that there are forty. AS matter
of fact there are forty-siX- days,
of which the first is Ash Wednesday,
and following these six full weeks
and an investigation into the history
of this fact at once throws light
upon some interesting points con-
nected with the Lenten observance.
In spite of the opinions Of some of
the early Fathers it is now practically
certain that Lent, as we know it to-
day, is not an apostolic institution. On
the other hand, the observance of
Easter and of a preliminary fast of
preparation, are apostolic in their orr
gin, but even in the time of st. Irenaeus
(second century, considerable differ
ences existed both as to the duration
and the kind of fast observed, and
from certain words of this saint it
seems clear that the variety of usage
was of still greater antiquity and that
no definite apostolic tradition existed
to decide the point Nor is this
strange, inasmuch as at first it was
the week that was looked upon as the
liturgical unit, as it is to certain
extent to-day, and each Wednesday
and Friday was kept as a commemo-
ration of the betrayal and Passion of
Our Lord and each Sunday as COM
memoration of the Resurrection. Later
as feast-days multiplied, there grew
out of the more primitive conception
the idea of a great annual cycle COM
posed of still more solemn commemo-
rations of the mysteries of redemption.
AS Pascal time is the annual enlarge
ment of Sunday, so is Lent the annual
enlargement of Friday
With this natural development of
the Importance of the Easter festival,
the example of the forty days fast of
Moses, Elias, and in particular of Our
Blessed Lord, began to show itself
as the great factor in the determine
ton of the length of the penitential
season. Different local customs, how
ever, still produced Lents of varying
lengths, for the feeling gradually
spread that Lent should not merely be
period of fasting extending over
forty days, but a period that should ac-
tually contain forty fasting days.
At Jerusalem for instance, the Lent
extended over eight weeks, since there
the local custom forbade fasting on the
Saturday and Sunday. Eight weeks of
five fasting days each, exactly equalled
forty days. In the time of st. Gregory
the Great (59O-60N the Roman Lent
consisted of six weeks, giving thirty
six fasting days, and though later the
four days beginning with Ash We'd
nesday we're added to complete the
number of forty the earlier arrange
ment has left many traces in the lit
urgy.
For instance, the secret prayer of
the Mass for the first Sunday in Lent
speaks of this sacrifice of the begin
ming of Lent Neither are the Lent
en- versicle and response said in the
Office of the four supplementary days,
nor are Vespers recited before dinner
as during the rest of Lent.

shrovetlde Customs.

The custom of eating pancakes on
Shrove Tuesday is one that has its
roots far back in Catholic times. In
his letter to st. Augustine the Apostle
of England, st. Gregory, the Great,
speaking of Lent, says, eve abstain
from flesh and from all things that
come from flesh meat, such as milk,
cheese and eggs" This is still the
common law of the Church with re-
gard to the Lenten abstinence, relaxed
for us in these strenuous and perhaps
degenerate days by the Indult pub
lished each year. Consequently in
pre-Reformation times the careful
housewife used up, on Shrove Tuesday,
all the eggs, milk, butter and fats that
she had in her pantry in the prepare
ton of an appetising dish known to us
as pancakes The very name on
Shrovetide reminds us that our pious
ancestors were wont to receive the
Sacrament of Penance, or as they
would say, were "shriven" with the
intent that they might begin Lent in
a state of grace and having manifest
ed their consciences to their confes-
sor might know what special penances
it behooved them to perform
Yet even in pre-Reformation days
the obligation of refraining from GER
tain classes of food was occasionally
transmitted by the Popes into some
pious work In Spain a fitting con-
tribution to the cost of the Crusades,
procured in return for the aims certain
exemptions, and one of the towers of
the Cathedral at Rouen, known to this
day as "the butter tower" was built
from the offerings of those who were
allowed the use of butter during
Lent. The reason for the general
use of eggs on Easter Sunday and
for their ornamentation and ex-
change as presents, is also an old
Catholic custom. Prohibited as food
during Lent, they are therefore eaten
with special relish at Easter when
they are abundant Moreover, the
Matching of an egg is an apt symbol
of the resurrection and, like the Pas
cal lamb, has been singled out by the
Church for special blessing on Holy
Saturday.
A change has also gradually taken
place in the time at which the one full
