THE woRkoF THE MIDDLE AGES.

Tom Mann, better known for his
radical views in regard to the condi-
lions of the workingmen, unwittingly
paid high tribute to the Catholics of
the so-called clark ages" when, in a
lecture given recently before Wind
sor. Ont. audience. he declared:
There was a time when, without
a machine, with their own arms and
the aid of a horse, an ass or an OK
our forefathers obtained a suf1ciency
on which to exist by eight hours work
per day. And they begat a pretty
substantial progeny. There was no
talk of infant mortality then. And
they had fifty-two Sundays each year
to themselves besides forty-five or
fifty Saints days-Holy days-holidays
Jolly days. Their wages were seven
pence per day, which were greater
purchasing power then than nine shil-
lings now. That was the working
class standard for England and a
greater part of Europe. They had
those conditions because they organ
lied. The guilds of those days had
more control over their own produc-
tion than the labor unions of today.
"Once in a generation the labor
unions, after hard fight, get slight
shortening of the hours and a raise
in wages. But they allow themselves
to be bossed by the owners of the ma
chimes. II was between the years of
1850 and 1850 A. D., that the working
man had sthe most complete control
over his own energy and his own pro-
duction. sIt was during this period
that the greatest achievements of the
world in building we're accomplished.
It was then that these glorious Cathe-
drals, the most magnificent specimens
of architedur in the worlds history,
were builded! And they were erected
by workingmen without the help of
outside bosses or architects who were
not from among their own number.
Today the workingmen are working
for the lowest possible wages and the
highest possible profit of the class who
boss Them h,,g~,t
''In the middle ages women didn't
have to slave until the early, hours
of the morning to support husband
and children and take weak teay bread
and pan-drippings for her own Fsusten-
ance."

church building for which the money
has been given is now in process of
being constructed. To the left of the
hospital is the House of the Holy Child
or Orphanage. We went to
choral procession on Ash Wednesday
afternoon at st. Luke's Chapel / al
ways had weakness for the process
sional litany. 1t seems to me so much
the most appropriate way to recite it.
The little girls from the orphanage
acted as the choir and sang the re-
sponses with much zest!" Between
Aglipay and the UNCONVENTIONAL mis-
sions, it is half a miracle that there
are many people courageous enough
to practice the Faith that the Friars
brought to them. Especially is it to be
marveled at when the way they are
neglected by American Catholics is
considered.
AS a contrast to the great prosper
ity of the Protestant Episcopal Church
missions, the Catholic Church Exten-
sion Society has received letter from
one of the missionaries laboring in the
Philippines. Needless to say he has
no beautiful church like the Cathedral
of st. Mary and st. John, nor has he
even a substantial chapel Those
things are for Protestant missionaries
The priests have no such inducements
to give to their children. For two
years he has labored in this parish,
the church belonging to it, having
been burned down by the soldiers dur
ing the Revolution. And for those two
years he has been trying to build it
up again. And of course he has not
succeeded.
"Since I took charge of this par
ish," Father Jumauan writes to the
Society, Il undertook, upon the adj
vice of the late lamented Bishop Hen
drick, to build a new church. I tried
to raise money by subscription of the
parishioners, but up to this date I have
only collected one thousand dollars,
with which I cannot expect to build
new church. Besides the fact that
have to build a new church
have to secure vestments, sacred YES
sells and all the other necessary things
with which to conduct the divine serv-
ices. The ones / am using now are
loaned by the parish of Loboc. The
beautiful church here, with all it's re-
! quisites, was burned by the soldiers
during the Revolution. / need five
thousand dollars for my church in
project and cannot get this amount
from my parishioners owing to the
poor crop that they have gathered,
and on which they are absolutely de-
pendent" The Society, realizing the
desperate condition of the Church in
the Islands, would like to send Father
Jumauan this five thousand dollars.
Our missionaries in the Islands have
no comfortable homes, nor no guar
anteed salaries as do the ones sent

FRIEND.

sharp and the party will stop for you.
Mama is very particular, you know,
as to punctuality, and I have given
you till the very last moment. Now
may rely upon your" eyes, dear
Angela, quite certainly you may As
last remembrance, the tantalizing
Ralph, just as he was about to retire,
gave Regina this parting salute: 'Pll
lay a wager with you, sister mine, that
old Sol will be far on his daily course
ere you rouse yourself for the pro-
posed outing" A slight contraction
of the brows and graceful shrug of
the shoulders was her only response,
for Ralph was dearly loved and adj
mired by her indolent sister. Being
an ardent admirer of st. Francis
Xavier, st. Vincent De Paul and such
heroes, he seemed to imbibe their
lofty, generous spirit and make him
self all to all.
The following morning dawned
bright and beautiful perfect day.
Angela arose early, as was her wont,
went to Mass and Holy Communion as
usual; no thought of the great pleasure
trip caused one movement of haste,
because all was regularity within,
where reigned the King of Peace.
Therefore all was order without, as
far as she was concerned. A loving
smile, a helping hand and cheerful
word to those she met, she was verit-
able ray of sunshine wherever she
went. In the delightful breakfast
room of the Manor House all were
ready for the morning meal. Lord
and Lady Lancaster were present and
the ever punctual Ralph entered with
his CHEEKY good morning greeting; but
an anxious look crossed the fond
mothers face as she thought of her
sweet, beautiful, but indolent daugh-
ter, so unclaimed with that spirit of
sloth that nothing seemed capable of
freeing her from it's deadly letters.
Regina had answered, ooh, there will
be time enough" On being called
again she found there was only one
half hour left to dress, breakfast and
reach the appointed place. Now as is
usual with such persons, this, that and
the other thing were out of place, and
so the hour had already struck when
Regina emerged from her room, only
to meet Ralph, who, with books and
scroll, was ready to be off for the
college "Goodby, 'Queenie;' fortunate
you did not lay that wager with me. I
fear you have lost the gala day of
your life: the morning is glorious, -
and with this he was gone. Full of
vexation, she entered the breakfast
room, where her mother had returned
in search of her. She noted her daugh-
tiers disappointment and in grave.

REPORT OF THE SOCIETY FOR
THE PROPAGATION OF THE
FAITH FOR 1918.

The annual report of "The Society
for the Propagation of the Faith" pub
lished by the National American Office
of the Society (627 Lexington Avenue,
New York City,, in the June number
of the Annals" shows most graft
flying results. So far as the United
States are concerned it records for
1913 an increase of $73,543.72 over the
preceding year.
Interest toward foreign missions
wakes stronger every day in our land.
The marvellous results obtained by the
society, in the dioceses and parishes
where it is established, prove that
American Catholics are second to none
in espousing every noble movement
with self-sacrifcing spirit and gener-
osity.
The total amount collected by the
society in 1913 is 1892, 1861. France,
as usual, leads the Catholic world in
it's contribution to the cause, having
given $59O,191S7.
The other countries that contributed
the largest amounts come in the fol
lowing order:

EPIScoPALIANS ACTIVE IN
PHILIPPINES.
Have Fine Cathedral in Manila, and
Many Prosperous
TE,@A~ Missions.

If Catholic missionary zeal is dor
mant in regard to the spiritual needs
of the Filipino the same charge can
not be laid at the door of the home
mission department of the Episcopal
ian Church. That body is far from
sleeping, and under the leadership of
Bishop Brent, the spiritual child of
Henry the Eighth is fast carving a
niche for itself in the religious his
tory of the Islands. The Episcopalians
are doing things, for there is plenty
of money for them to do things with.
OF course from Spanish times there
are Catholic Cathedrals in the Islands,
and some of them beautiful ones; but
it was the Catholic Churches that
served as. the targets for the fury Of
the Revolutionists, and it is therefore
the Catholic Church that suffered
through that very revolution in the de-
struction Of her converts, hospitals
and churches. It is the Catholic
Church that is still suffering, and for
the lack of funds to carry on her mis-
sions, handicapped so terribly that
the present day is probably witnessing
the crisis of Catholicism in the Islands.

NE@E~~rtlJ of Manila.
y "The first thing that impressed us"
says a writer in The Churchman, the
organ Of the High Church Party in
the Protestant Episcopal Church,
writing of their missions in the
Islands, "was the size of the Cathedral.
The pictures that we had seen had
given us the idea that it was about
like an average parish church. In
reality it is large and stately. Stu
ated as 1t is in the center of the Sec
tion where the administration build
ings are Ito be built, and surrounded
by a generous amount of well lawned
propertys one could not but feel that
the Bishop has planned with large
wisdom m thus placing the American
Church before the Philippines in a
most suggestive situation. The
Bishops house, next to it, is equally
dignifed and appropriate.
Within, the Cathedral is lofty and
dim, as of course it would never do in
such ATTITUDES to have building food

The Society for the Propagation of
the Faith is far from being exclusively
interested in foreign missions, for it
extensively helps our home missions,
which last year received over $780,
100000 from it's general or special
funds.
The same issue of the Annals" con-
tains a statement which is most inter-
esting. In order to keep its benefac-
tors informed on every feature of the
work of the society, Mgr. Freri, ma
tional director, declares that in 1913
the total expenses of the United States
National Office amounted, as usual, to
less than 5 per cent of the gross re-
ceipts, exactly to 1856 per cent. This
expenditure includes the salaries of
two directors and nine assistants, the
house rent of offices, the office eX-
penses, the printing of literature and
publishing of two magazines, in fact
all the outlay occasioned by the carry
ing on of the work.

and again denounced the anti-Catholic
crusade as unfair, dangerous to all re-
ligious denominations and un-Ameri-
can. Especially is this species of re-
ligious persecution to be condemned
when it is carried on in an underhand
and cowardly manner by oath-bound
secret societies of whose objects and
methods, in the very nature of things,
no one who is not a member can
possibly be aware. Recent events
have proved that these anti-Catholic
organizations have not the public well

is high time that halt was called to
their nefarious activities"

JEWISH CONDEMNATION OF ANTI.
CATHOLIC cAMPAIGN.t

The anti Catholic crusade revived in
our day has vainly attempted to curry
favor with the Jews. Jewish publica-
lions have urged that every argument
brought against Catholics could be ad-
vanced against their race. The forma-
ton of secret societies in aid of the
campaign of religious bigotry is thus
commented on by the American
Israelite" of Cincinnati:

Sister Mary of the Sacred Heart,
stood by her side and gave a fearful
smile of approval to this salute. Prom

rather sharply. the movement being ac-
companied by a good deal Of covering.
Then relative dulness settled down once

fact that the President was TO read his
message on the trust question to-day
and that his utterances might perhaps
contain some unwelcome surprises. al
though the advices from the national
capital have concurred in predicting
that the general trend of his remarks
would be conciliatory and would give

a large number Of issues. Steel COM
mon was again the leader in point of
activity and advanced more than a
point Next TO it in activity came
than a point, its advance being in sym
patty with the strength of the copper
stocks in London and on the Continent.
The only response Of Delaware & Hud-
son TO the strike news was a sale Of
100 shares at one-quarter Of point
advance.
The leading influence in the rise in
London, where there are no complcat-
ing factors like the expected message
Of the President. was as already noted
the very easy money position, the most
striking effect Of which has been the
sharp rise in consols within the last
few days. Here the further swelling
last week Of the already great surplus
reserve Of the banks was reflected in
another decline in the call loan rate 10
> per cent as the ruling figure and IN
an easier feeling in time money, the
rates for some maturities being marked
down another one-quarter per cent.
The foreign exchange market was in
active, with the demand sterling rate
a few points down, but il is expected
that additional gagements of gold for
shipment TO Paris will he arranged

outward movement could take place
without serious effect on this market.
