Preparations are going on
apace for the union picnics to be
given on the Fourth of July for
the orphans and for the House of
the Good Shepherd. As already
announced, the former will take
place on the grounds of the Boys
Orphanage, Chicago and Forty
sixth Street, Minneapolis, and the
latter on the grounds of st.
Thomas College, st. Paul. The
Catholics of each city are rallying
to the support of the committee
in charge Of the local arrange
ments. They are vying with each
each other in an effort to make
these picnics the most successful
ever held in the Twin Cities. No
doubt, as time goes on, the en-
thusiasm will grow, as the people
realize more and more the WORTH
ness of the institutions which are
to be benefited. If each one does
his share, be it little or great, the
result will prove entirely salts.

RELIGIOUS TEACHING IN THE
UNIVERSITY OF MINNIE
sofa.

From time to time during the
past year we have read in the pub
lie press of religious exercises
and addresses by Protestant min
listers held under the auspices of
the University of Minnesota for
the students attending that insti-
tuition. From the publicity given
to these features of university life
we cannot escape the conclusion
that they were arranged for by
the university authorities or, at
least, with their approval.
We are indebted to fThe Min
nesota Alumni Weekly" for an
account of series of lectures CIV
en- by DR.. Hugh Black, of the
Union Theological Seminary of
New York City, in the Chapel of
the University the first week of
May. Three of the four lectures
were on religious subjects, the
final one dealing with Christian
ity and the Modern Man"
In this address DIR. Black dis
cussed the forces which are chang
ing mems intellectual attitude to-
wards religion. "Vital Chris
tianity," he said, is no longer
bound to medieval theories of
creation. We have come to recog-
nize theology as an attempt of the
mind of men to explain religion
and interpret religious expert
ence. The greatest result Of the
modern movement is that the en-
phasis of religion is put upon its
social significance and the only
heresy that can possibly exist is
to doubt the validity of moral
standards, not of religious doc
trines. y
It is surprising that a minister
of DR.. Blacks supposed attain
ments should stoop to the propa-
eating of such uni Christian ideas
in regard to religion. Evidently
he is not above endorsing the
views, so prevalent in Protestant
ism today, that religion is based
on nothing more substantial than
the whims and fancies of men,
that its fundamental principles
and moral standards are not
founded upon the divine revela-
ton made by the Saviour during
the course of His earthly pilgrim
age. DR.. Black would do away
with Christ's teaching by label
ling il medieval. !" This is q

An UNPREJUDICED TRIBUTE.
MEN ATTRACTED BY THE PRAc-
TIcAL EFFICIENCY OF THE
CATHOLIC CHURCH.

The growth of the Roman Catholic
Church in the United States, says the
Booklovers' Magazine, is one of the
most striking facts of history-and
she has also gained the popular good
will, or at least a favorable prepos-
session, and she has conquered re
spect. At present those who look
upon her most favorably are that large
and influential class of men whose
antecedents were Protestants, but
whose actual connection with a Prot
estant church is little more than NOM
inal. They know enough of Prot
estantism to make them admire its
excellence These men care little for
the theological and ecclesiastical ques-
lions which separate Rome and Prot
estantism. They are legislators, city
officials, railroad men, editors, man
ayers of large business interests.
Whenever their dealings bring them
in contact with Roman Catholic in
stitution, they find an organization
which knows it's own mind, knows
what it wants, has some one who can
speak for it officially and finally.
They can see that it maintains dis
cipline among its own members, and
seems at the same time to retain their
affection. They are attracted, in a
word, by its practical, business-like
efficiency, and are repealed by the OPP
posite qualities in Professionalism.

The st. Paul Council, Knights
of Columbus, has procured five
hundred copies of DIR. J. J..
Walsh's book, "The Thirteenth,
the Greatest Of Centuries" for
distribution among the members.
This edition was specially pre-
pared for the knights of Colum-
bus at the request of the Supreme
Council Of the Order. 1t is a re-
print from the plates of the orig
inal work, but on less expensive
paper. The edition consists of
thirty thousand copies and each
volume is substantially bound in
cloth and stamped with the en-
blem Of the Knights of Columbus.
In the preface to this, the fifth,
edition, DIR. Walsh says: "The
good work which the Knights of
Columbus have done in diffusing
a knowledge of the true relations
Of the Church to science, gener-
Gus patronage and encouragement,
instead of supposed opposition,
will, I think, be greatly furthered
by the wide distribution of the
information contained in this vol
ume with regard to the supremely
helpful attitude Of the Church to-
wards art and architecture, litera-
ture, education and above all the
important social problems, which
is so well illustrated during the
great period of the Thirteenth
Century. / sincerely hope that
brother Knights Of Columbus will
find in the book some of that re-
newal of devotion to Mother
Church that came as the result of
my own studies of this glorious
period of her history, when her
action was untrammelled by polit-
zeal considerations and when she
was free to express herself in
every great movement for the ben
eft of humanity

NEITHER WARNS NOR STRENGTH
EMS.

Intoxicating liquor cannot warm
you, says Norman Kerr, M. D. There
is no greater fallacy than the common
mistake of supposing that because you
feel hotter after drinking strong drink
you are really warmer. The truth is
that in this, as with regard to nourish-
ment, alcohol is deceiver. It makes
you feel warmer while it actually
makes you cooler. 1t robs you of
heat, and while the stolen property is
being hurried through the skin, the
skin is heated, as you feel in the alco-
hol flushing of the face. Dangerous as
intoxicating drinks are everywhere,
they are especially perilous in cold
weather and cold climates. Intoxicat-
ing liquors can supply you with no en-
ergy, no force. They can not add to
your strength. So far from helping
you, beer, wine and spirits will hinder
you in whatever work you have to do.
Other things being equal, you will
have the greatest steadiness OF hand,
firmness of grasp and clearness of
mind by total abstinence from every
kind Of intoxicating liquor. The hard
est work has been best and most
easily accomplished under total alb
stinence.

OF THE GOOD SHEP.
HERD.

We call the attention of our
readers to the article on the isis
tiers of the Good Shepherd" in
this issue. Tt tells the simple
story of their daily devotion to
the task of rescuing from lives of
shame those who have fallen by
the wayside and guarding the vir-
tuous amid the pitfalls that beset
their innocent footsteps. It also
presents the pressing need of the
Sisters for more subjects for the
cloister, larger accommodations
for the Community and inmates,
and more generous financial sup
port for the work which they are
carrying on under such great diff
ficulties. We hope a perusal of
it will remove whatever misun-
derstandingS exist In regard to
the nature of their work, and
touch the hearts of generous
Catholics who are able to give
substantial aid In promoting so
praiseworthy an undertaking as
that in which the Sisters are en-
gagged. The coming picnic will
afford all an opportunity to show
their appreciation of the work
which the Sisters of the Good

MOTHER s DAY.

Last Sunday was Mothers
Day" in Minnesota, and in many
mont Catholic churches the service
took on the character of a tribute
to mothers. Sermons were
preached extolling them and call
ing upon all to show them the
honor and reverence which is
their due.
The idea underlying Mothers
Day" is a good one-but is the
innovation necessary? 1t is well
to get people to remember their
mothers in an especial manner on
one day of the year-if they are
habitually unmindful of them at
other times, which is seldom, if
ever, the case. Only the migrate
can forget the mother who bore
him, and, judged by this standard,
there are few ingrates among
Christians of any denomination.
The setting apart Of a Mother s
Day, therefore, is a virtual insult
to Christian people.
But apart from this phase Of
the question, the idea of a Moth
er's Day celebration is tacit ap-
proval, on the part of non-Cath-
olics, of the attitude which the
Catholic Church has ever main
tanned towards the Mother of,
God, whom it reveres as the high
est type Of that matronly dignity
with which it invests every moth
er. The month Of May is our
Mothers month, set apart In an
especial manner to honor her who
is the exemplar of Christian moth
erhood. Catholics honor the
Blessed Virgin Mary because she
is the Mother of God the Saviour,
and in honoring her they honor
all mothers, not only during the
month of May, but at all times.
Hence, there is no need. to set
apart a special Mothers Day for
the children Of the Church
Non-Catholics often condemn
the Church for her attitude to-
wards the Mother of God, as if it
were possible to show her too
much honor. And yet they see
nothing wrong in paying tribute
to their own mothers. They
would reDudiate. and Justly so.
any insinuation that the honor
which they show their mothers in
wolves a worship that would at
tribute to them anything of the
divine; and yet, how ready they
are to accuse Catholics of wor-
shipping the Mother of God, as if
she possessed the. divine nature
and attributes. Catholics do not
worship the Mother Of God, but
they honor her in an especial man
ner because of the sublime dig
nifty conferred upon her when
God chose her, from all eternity,
to be the mother of His only-be-
gotten Son.
When will Professionalism real
ize the glaring inconsistency of
much Of it's attitude towards Cath
Ollie doctrine and practice?

SHAKESPEARE A CATHOLIC
OPINION EXPRESSED BY DR.. J. j..
WALSH IN A RECENT LECTURE
AT ST. AMBROSE COLLEGE, DAv-
EXPORT, IA.

"Since Shakespeare, said Doctor
Walsh, shares with Homer and Dante
the honor of first place among the
worlds great poets, it is of interest
to Catholics to know that he, too,
may have been faithful son of the
Church. It is almost impossible to
adduce any direct proof in this re-
gard because he lived in time when
it was hard to be a Catholic. The
celebration of the Mass was absolute
ly forbidden, priests were hunted
down like outlaws and put to death
if captured, and everyone was forced
under pain of heavy fine to attend
the services of the Anglican Church.
It is true that Shakespeare was bap-
tized in the Anglican church, married
by an Anglican minister, and buried
in an Anglican cemetery, but since
Anglican baptism and marriage would
be valid and according to the English
law that was the only way in which a
birth or marriage could be legalized,
it is probable that the Catholic
Church made some provisions permit
ting this, and as the Anglicans held
all the burying- grounds they also had
charge of all funerals. That this
was the actual case would seem to
follow from the fact that his mother
and her family were and remained de.
vout Catholics while his father was
so often fined for failing to attend
the Anglican services that he was
forced into bankruptcy. Moreover
Anne Hathaway, Shakespeare's wife
came from an old Catholic family and
the fact that she was much older than
himself would seem to show that he
chose her because of her religion.
I'm his plays we find that Shakes
peare often took stories that were
full of bitter feeling towards Catholic
ism, and, in marked contrast to the
spirit of the times, worked them over
/ in such a way as to get Catholic doc
trines and practices in very favora
bic light. Romeo and Juliet his
first play Hamlet his greatest, and
Henry WILL his last, are essentially
Catholic in spirit. Again, we fine
from records that during his long
sojourn in London he stayed with g
Huguenot family. Now, the Hugue
nots were not compelled to go to An
glican services and it seems highly
probable that Shakespeare chose sucl
family that he might share in the
exemption. From several passage tha
he has written there is no doubt of hi:
hate of Puritanism and so it seem:
quite possible that he was all his life
true son of Holy Mother Church.

A MILLION FOR MISSIONS.

A million for missions! Such
is the bequest left to Protestant
foreign missionary work by w. G..
Borden, a young missionary who
died in Egypt a few weeks ago.
The will bequeaths varying sums
to different missionary organiza-
lions to be expended in promot-
ing the spread of Protestant Chris
tianity in different parts of the
world. The testator provides:
"That each of the requests be
used for, or in connection with,
missionaries and teachers who are
sound in the faith, believing in
such fundamentals as the doctrine
of the divine inspiration and au-
thority of the Scriptures, the doc
trine of the Trinity, including the
Deity of Jesus Christ, and in the
doctrine of the atonement through
the substitutionary death Of Our
Lord, Jesus Christ "
Who ever heard of any one be-
queathing a million dollars to
Catholic mission work? Is it be-
cause there are no Catholic mil
lionaires? or because those who
have been blessed with a large
share of this worlds goods are not
animated with that spirit Of gen
crosby towards Catholic religious
projects which animates SO many
wealthy non-Catholics? If the
Catholic Church had at its dis
posal for the maintenance and
promotion Of its missionary work,
the interest of a million dollars il
could cheer the heart and uphold
the hand of many a poor mission
airy who is now laboring in dis
tant lands. and even In our own
country, without material re-
sources upon which he can con-
fidently rely year after year and
without any consolation save the
knowledge that he is doing a work
that is dear to the heart Of the
Saviour. There are many rich
Catholics who could afford to con-
tribute generously to the support
of Catholic missions, but who new
er seem to realize that there is
any obligation to look beyond the
limits of their parish. A more
generous loosening of the purse
strings by them would render
bearable, at least, the lot of many
a poor missionary, even in our
own land, who, in poverty and OBJ
security, is struggling to uphold
the banner of divine truth In the
midst of most uncongenial sur

PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS
BAPTIST MINISTER'S DECLARE
FOR DEMON TIoNAL
scHooLs-5IRLE READING IN
SCHOOL NOT SUFFICIENT FOR
RELIGIOUS TRAINING.

The relation of the public schools to
the religious training of children was
discussed at a recent meeting of
Baptist minister's in Philadelphia and
it seemed to be the general opinion,
says the Evening Bulletin of that city
that, although the percentage OF
Juvenile crime in the United States
is increasing by leaps and bounds,
the mere presence Of the Bible In the
classroom will not prove to be an
efectual arresting agency.
Nearly all of those who spoke
agreed that in the constant influence
that the teacher exercises over the
pupils lies the opportunity for getting
religion into the schools, and not in a
perfunctory reading from the Bible
each morning, and that the question is
one of teachers influence and not one
of the presence or absence of the
Bible.
DIR. william Calder, Of the North
frankfort Baptist Church, said that
the time is fast coming when all de-
nominations will see the necessity of
establishing parochial schools.

Charlottesville Easter season
closes next Sunday, and with it
the opportunity to comply with
the laws of the Church in regard
to the performance of the Paschal
Communion. The obligation does
not cease, however, with Trinity
Sunday; but those who, through
their own fault, fail to make their

In many of the larger cities a
Mass is celebrated at midday on
holydays of obligation for the
benefit of those who are obliged
to work. st. Louis is the latest
city to adopt this method of ac-
commodating working people who
would otherwise be unable to full
fl the duty of hearing Mass on
holydays. In three of the down
town churches, according to the
Western Waterman, a midday
Mass has been arranged and they
are filed to overlooking. Men in
working clothes and men in bust
ness dress turned out in crowds
and enthusiasm marked the serv-
ices. This concession is certainly
appreciated by those for whom it
is intended and, no doubt, the Gus
tom will soon become quite COM
mon throughout the country. 1t
has much to recommend it.

At this season when so many
little children are making their
first Communion it is cOnsoling to
the faithful to know that our
Holy Father, Pope Plus K, has
granted very special spiritual
favors not only to, the children
themselves but to their parents
and relatives and all who assist
at this ceremony. These indul-
gences, granted on July IL, 1905,
are as follows: (1) To the COM
municants themselves, a plenary
indulgence on the condition of
previous confession and Of prayer
for the Pope's intentions. (2) To
the parents and relatives, down
to the third degree of relation
ship, a plenary indulgence, if
they assist at the first Commun-
ion, and, after confession, receive
Holy Communion and pray for
the Pope's intentions. (3) To
all assisting at the ceremony, an
indulgence Of seven years and
seven guarantees, provided they
be at least contrite for their
sins. These favors should en-
courage parents and relatives to
join the little ones at the holy
table on the occasion Of their first
Communion.
