FATHER VAUGHAN
on EDUCAT ION
WELL KNOWN ENGLISH PRIEST
GIVES SANE OPINION.

Father Vaughan thus sanely spoke
on education in England recently:
eve are told that the government has
an educational bill, and that it is soon
to be brought forward. l am told that
the provisions of this bill have been
carefully drawn up, and that it will
please our Nonconformist friends. l
am delighted that it will l think an
educational bill ought to please every
section in the community. We wish
in no way to be favored. We want
nothing except what every true Eng
lishman wants and demands-even-
handed justice. Nothing can be more
cruel and cowardly than to ask Cath
olics to be true to their Empire and
yet give themno chance to be true to
their God. Why are we true to King
and country? Because all power comes
from God. Take God away, and you
remove the keystone from the arch.
You leave nothing but chaos and desc
lation. Does my country think that a
bad Catholic will make good Prot
estant? l tell my country that bad
Catholic is going to make good-for-
nothing. l know there are those who
say, Simple Bible reading will be
enough Was there ever such non
sensical balderdash spoken? Simple
Bible reading is of little more use for
the sustenance of the soul than simple
menu reading would be support for the
body"

THE MONEY VALUE Of
INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION
AN IMPORTANT ITEM FOR ALL
PARENTS.

What is the money value of indus
trial education, of trade training? "The
average reduced to individual cases, %
says the Educational Bi-Monthly,
would be something like this: Two
boys, age IA, are both interested in
mechanics. One goes into the shops,
the other into a technical school The
boy in the shops starts at $4.00 a
week, and by the time he is 18 he is
getting $500. At that age the other
boy is leaving school and starting to
work at $1,000 a week. At 20 the
shop-trained young fellow is getting
$3.50 and the technical graduate
$500; at % the formers weekly
wage is $11.50 and the latter's $1,000;
and by the time they are 25 the shop
worker finds $1275 in his pay en-
velope, while the technically trained
man draws a salary of $31.00. These
figures are based on study of 1000
actual workers made by the Massa-
chusetts Commission for Industrial
and Technical Education"
These figures picture conditions but
too little known in Catholic circles.
Being too little known they are too lit
tie needed, and the result is a short
sighted policy of putting the boy to
work" as soon as he has left the paro-
chial school Unless this tendency is
generally opposed we shall be in grave
danger of creating Catholic pro
lefariaf

OF The NAVY
HONOR TO WHOM HONOR is DUE
FINALLY AWARDED.

Regarding the honor recently ac-
corded Commodore Barry, the Phila-
delphia Standard and Times remarks:
In securing the cooperation of the
United States Government in the hon.
oring of Commodore John Barry as
the Father of the American Navy the
Society of Wexford Men have gained
an important victory for the cause of
historical justice. The controversy
over the question OF priority in this
claim is now settled decisively. The
Government, by the mouth of the As
sistant Secretary Of the Navy, has
gone on record publicly as acknowl-
edging that Commodore Barry is the
proper holder of that distinguished
title. The gallant Wexford man was
the first captain to offer his ship to
fight the battles of the nascent Repub-
lie on the high seas, pitting himself
fearlessly against the immense Sea
power of the greatest navy of the
world at that time and since; and he
was the first captain to lower the
British flag in battle on the high seas
"a unique and enviable honor indeed.
He was the first holder of the Ameri-
can title of captain officially conferred
by the head of the Republican Govern
ment, and now all the world is made
cognizant of the fact. The late Mr..
Griffin, of Philadelphia, had the honor
of placing Barry's name where it now
stands.

NEW YORK JUDGE
ON PUB BLIC' School |
WAKES WRoTH ON DISCOVERING
THAT ELEVEN-YEAR OLD BOY

WAS WRONG TO TELL A LIE.

Some very severe things we're re-
Gently said by Magistrate House, of
New York, about the public school
system. The magistrate had before
him two school boys, one by the name
of Schwartz and the other by the
name of Benjamin. Benjamin accused
the Schwartz boy of having stolen
some hats from him while he was
delivering same for his employer. On
questioning Benjamin about the ma
ture of the oath he was about to take,
the magistrate discovered that the
11-year-old boy had not learned that
it was wrong to tell lie. There
upon the magistrate said to the de-
fendant:
Schwartz, you ought to be very
thankful for the inefficient public
school system of this city for your
discharge. Certainly it is sad COM
mentary on the system when boy
nearly twelve years old is unable to
answer the question I've asked.
Nowadays the teacher takes a
cigar box, plugs a hole in one end of
it, fills it with sand, then puts a
marble in the sand and asks the
pupils to guess when the marble will
drop out of the hole. The time doing
that might well be taken up in a little
ethical instruction. We spend $4,000
900 a year in public instruction, and
here's a specimen"
Assistant District Attorney Dickin-
son suggested that BENJAMIN might
not have understood the question.
The magistrate replied:
Understand the question! Just go
out and ask the business men of the
city what they think of the public
school graduate Why, they're hang
ing out signs now which read: Pub
lie school boys and girls need not
apply for this position.

PROSPECTS OF HOME RULE
CONFIDENCE EXPRESSED BY
JOHN REDMOND.

John Redmond, M. P, leader of the
Irish party, sums up the prospects for
home rule as follows:
"The latest evidence of the feeling
of the country on home rule is to be
found in the experience of Sir Edward
Carson and his friends in their recent
tour. So mechanical was their recep-
tion and so over-stagemanaged their
proceedings, that Sir Edward himself
has evidently been impressed with the
futility of attempting at the eleventh
hour to swing the pubic right around
in his favor.
After five meetings he has brought
his tour to a sudden end. This is a
great disappointment to my colleagues
and myself who looked forward to
making an extended tour through
Great Britain in Sir Edwards foot.
steps. We have followed him wherever
he has gone, and my personal expert
ence has been that never in my whole
career have l addressed such large
and enthusiastic meetings.
''No man, of course, can foretell the
future with absolute certainty, but
barring the chance of some political
earthquake, it is in my judgment as
certain as the rising of tomorrow S
sun, that the home rule bill will be
placed on the statute book before this
day next year."

The solemn ceremony of blessing
and laying of the cornerstone of the

who witnessed it gave evidence of
their firm adhesion to Faith, of their
pride in the progress which better
times and brighter prospects have
brought to the church in these prairie
parts. The day was observed as a

WHY CATHOLICS REAR
OUR LARGEST FAMILIES
SIOUX CITY ELATE cHAL-
LENGEs sTATEMEk THAT
THEY ARE ENCOURAGED so
THAT PRoTEsTANTs MAY BE
OUTNUMRERED.

Bishop Garrigan, at the Cathedral
of the Epiphany, Sioux City, delivered
striking sermon few weeks ago
in which he paid his respects to a
local ranter. He took for his text the
words of our Lord:
Unless your justice abound more
than that of the Scribes and Pharisees,
you shall not enter into the Kingdom
of Heaven" Matt. v.
Those Pharisees, dear brethren,
were a Jewish sect who stood up
boldly for all the claims and doctrines
of orthodox Judaism. This sect, at
the time of our Lord had degener-
ated, having become class OF sane
timonious people, sticklers for law.
hypercritical, and full of pride and
avarice. We have, am sorry to say,
some men among us, religious teach
ers, who are not indeed Jewish Phari-
sees, but a modern species of the
same genius, sticklers for law, critical
of their neighbors, holier-than-thou
set, who claim to regulate religion,
politics and social betterment accord
ing to their own limited ideas.
The Catholic Church is a common
object for their insidious attacks when
there is nothing more sensational in
view. These modern Pharisees do not
like this old church, no more than the
Jewish Pharisees respected Christ
Himself. She does not consult them,
does not even notice them, but, to
their chagrin, pursues the even tenor
of her way in this world with a SER
iousness and dignity becoming her
divine mission.
A representative of this class Of
modern Pharisees made an ingenious
attack last Sunday in his pulpit, upon
the motives of the Catholic priest
hood and people in matter Of the
most sacred and vital character; the
promotion of large families for the
sole object of the numerical suprem-
acy of our Church.

C RNERSTONE LAID.
OF NEW CATHOLIC
CHURCH, SUNDAY, JULY 13.

Sunday, July 13, was noteworthy
st. Dominic, at Northfield. The cor.
nerstone of the splendid new church
was laid in the afternoon with fitting
ceremonies and other services were
held during the day. Rev. Thomas
Gleeson of st. Paul, delivered an ad.
dress at the laying of the cornerstone,
DR.. Moynihan, rector of st. Thomas
college, preached at the Solemn High
Mass, choosing as his text, "They will
build me a house, and / will come
and dwell therein" and Rev. Oliver
Dolphin spoke at the evening serv-
ices. Supper and dinner were served
on the church grounds by the ladies'
of the parish. A large number OF
visitors from other cities and neigh.
boring parishes were present.
We give a resume of the history of
st. Dominic's parish:
Father Keller visited the few Cath.
olics located in and around Mortified
before there was any church here
and before there was a railroad
nearer than Hastings or st. Paul. He
came from Faribault frequently on
horseback and gathered his little
flock in the home of some Catholic
where Mass was said. This was about
the year 1866. The first place 30
honored was that of Mr.. William
Ryan whose house stood then where
Mr.. Ludwig Markoe's house now is.
Afterwards hall in the village was
secured for divine services. Then
about the year 1867 three good men
of Mortified canvassed the few scat.
tered Catholics of the community to
see If they could not by some means
have little church of their own. The
Catholics of Hazelwood had given
them the example some four or five
years previously by building a little
chapel near the Dodd Road on q site
donated to the parish by James Nc
Cabe, storekeeper. The Catholics OF
Mortified at the time however, were
few in number and their circum.
stances were not promising. But they
were rich i'm faith and strong in the
spirit of sacrifice. Hence Dominic
Noes, Patrick Murphy and Robert
Halford, after their work of visiting
the people, were able to present to
Bishop Grace of st. Paul good reasons
for establishing parish In North.
field Their only request was that
he place the parish under the protec.
tion Of st. Dominic. This was accept.
able to Bishop Grace, who was him.
self a spiritual son Of st. Dominic.
The little chapel was built simple In
form, without sanctuary, sacristy or
steeple; rude, unfinished within, only
| a little wooden cross over the front
of the building telling the passerby
that this was the Catholic church, the
house Of God On the occasion OF
Bishop Grace's first visit to North.
