In many places the Church
Unity Octave is observed as a time
of special public prayer for the
recognition of the Catholic Church
as the only divinely-appointed
institution for the salvation of
souls. But even if there be no
concerted action in this regard,
each one can do something
towards that end by offering up
his prayers for this general inten-
ton and thereby assist in work
which cannot be but pleasing to
our Divine Lord who said
"Other sheep ! have, that are not
of this fold; them also must
bring. and they shall hear my
voice, and there shall be one fold
and one shepherd.

A GOOD MOVE.

The Central-Verein of St. Louis
is to be commended for the efforts
it is making to aid the National
Board of Censorship in exercising
proper supervision over moving
picture films. It proposes to bring
to the attention of this Board any
complaints sent to it by those who
frequent moving picture shows
and who are not satisfied with the
character of the films exhibited.
1t is important that there be
proper supervision of moving
picture films. The craze for this
kind of entertainment has become
almost universal Moving picture
shows are now in operation in al
most every village and hamlet
throughout the country. They
offer a cheap form of entertain
ment for those who cannot afford
anything better and, if, properly
conducted, can be made not only
interesting, but instructive. For
this purpose the films should be
approved by competent board
of censors who will allow nothing
suggestive, not to say indecent, to
escape their scrutiny. The pa
irons of this class of shows can do
much to improve conditions by
protesting against the exhibition
Of films that depict scenes and sit
uations which are unbecoming
and demoralizing.
1t is important that Catholics
take an active part in this work
of censorship by refusing to
patronize places in which pictures
are shown that fall below the
recognized standards Of propriety
They can do this by calling the
attention of the National Board
of Censorship to films which it
approved, but which are not up
to the high standard Of morality
which ought to be maintained by
the Board. They should also re-
port to it the reproduction of
films which it has refused to sane
ton, but which are nevertheless
being exhibited. Many films con-
demned by the Board are released
in certain territories through in
dependent film exchanges. They
can help to strengthen the posi-
ton of the National Board if they
report to the Central-Verein, 3O7
Temple Building, st. Louis, Mo-,
any productions that fall below
the standard of morality demand
ed by the welfare of society
Their cooperation in this matter
will do much to improve condi-
tions and prevent the morals OF
the rising generation from being
deprayed by the exhibition OF
pictures that ignore more or less
the requirements of public de-
cency and propriety.

The Brooklyn Eagle comment
ing on the declaration made by
Bishop Kennedy, Rector of the
American College in Rome, that,
under no circumstances, would an
audience with the Holy Father be
granted to any divorced person,
says: "The Pope is absolutely
consistent in refusing to receive
Americans or others who are i'm
moral persons from the Church
viewpoint. This consistency is a
quality which non-Catholics can
recognize and admire. Most com
municants of various Protestant
bodies are not too well satisfied
with the tolerance of divorce and
the remarriage by clergymen of
divorced persons. Many such
communicates are already doubt
ing whether, on the whole, the
Roman Catholic view is not the
correct one on this subject

KNOCKING OUT TREATING.

The Supreme Court of the State of
Washington has upheld the right of
the city of Tacoma to enforce an anti
treating ordinance. The court holds
that the power to regulate saloons
means also the power to regulate the
conduct of citizens in saloons.
The court did not consider seriously
the argument that treating is an act
of hospitality, and that it was an indi-
vidual right which could not be
abridged. The court says this argu-
ment has no weight whatever In sup
port of a practice which becomes
menace to morality and order. It
holds that the citizen has no inherent
right to treat another in a saloon
which is under the control of the
police power. Whatever the right of
the citizen may be elsewhere, he has
no inherent right even to buy liquor
in such place."
1t will be interesting to watch the
effect of the decision. Whether such
an ordinance can be successfully en-
forced is open to question. One thing
will be generally admitted, and that il
that with the treating system abol-
ished the sale of liquor would fall off
tremendously. The number of people
who drink alone is inconsequential.
The great bulk of liquor drinking is
done under the guise of 'soeiability."

the remark frequently made: What

The implication is absurd Are we

the various performances which
he stages for their benefit. St.

may be said that the pastor of

does not have to resort to such

a lengthy editorial on Prostitute

to the vaudeville methods used by
the Rev. G.. Il. Morrill,, of Mime

A new church to teach "Socio-
logical Christianity" was opened
in st. Paul last Sunday. The
press reported an audience of
"nearly 1000 persons" and a
collection of thirty-two dollars.
Evidently the millionaires stayed
away. How long will the others
remain to listen to a preacher who
has no definite religious creed?

OBJ WELSH MINERS ENToMBED.

Cardiff, Wales, Oct 15.-A disas-
ter, possibly the greatest in the his
tory Of the South Wales coal fields.
whose annals are bristling with terri
BILE catastrophes, occurred yesterday
through an explosion in the Universal
Colliery, near here. Shortly after
the day shift of 931 men entered the
mine an explosion shattered the
works.
During the day and early in the
night about 500 miners were brought
to the surface alive.
After midnight rescuing parties
began to get the fire under control
and at 1880 this morning, twenty
more men were found alive at the
bottom of the pit. This gave hope
that others may be found, but there
still is a probability, that nearly 400
men perished.

men killed at the pit head, the death
roll numbers 16. Doctors with
oxygen and medicaments descended
the shaft early today A crowd of
10000 distracted persons surround

Senators Hitchcock, democrat and
Weeks, Republican, insisted that all
sections Of the country should enjoy
the same rates OF re-discount under

conceded that such a system undoubt-

in western states where money Is now
earning high rates. Both senator's
