Duty Of Catholics to Build and Support
Parocl1ial Schools.

1t is your holy duty, dear Christian
parents, to send your children to the
parochial school if your parish has
such blessing, and if some wish to
take higher course of studies send
them, if possible, to Catholic college,
where their faith and morals will not
be exposed to danger. God Himself
demands of parents to give their little
ones a Christian education. He has
given them children to raise them for
Him and bring them to heaven for
which they were created. From their
hands he will once require them. The
natural law urges parents to rear their
offspring in manner pleasing to God.
They are their own flesh and blood,
and as they wish to be happy them
selves here and hereafter, nature it.
self prompts them to wish the same
happiness to their children, and to
meet them once in heaven where they
hope to enjoy together everlasting
happiness. The Church also COM
mands them to raise their children as
good Christians. The Third Plenary
Council of Baltimore, has an extensive
chapter of Is pages in the large book:
"Acta ct Decreta" about Catholic
schools, commanding all parishes,
whenever circumstances permit, to
erect parochia1 schools It is true, in
many small congregations such schools
are impossible, but there are some
parishes yet which ought to have their
own schools In some places where
Catholics are in the minority, and yet
in sufficient number and we'll able to
build and maintain parochial schools,
they will have to do so, if they do not
wish to see their churches closed 30
or 40 years hence, for young people
without a thorough Christian educa-
ton will drop away by degrees and
lose themselves in the thoughtless in
different world. Once more, ear
nestly request you, Rev. Pastors, to
do all in your power to have your
people and children well instructed,
and appeal to the faithful to assist
you in this noble work. May God
bless you all.

were not less distinguished than these
for their religious convictions. Volta
and Ampere were pious Catholics, de-
lighting in their deeds of religious
zeal more than in their great discov-
cries in electricity. Faraday, whom
Tyndall called one of the worlds
greatest experimenters, was a Prot
estant Of deep religious feeling, who
expresses frequently in his writings
his reverence for God and his acknowl-
edgment that religious truth cannot
be opposed by scientific investigation.
James Clerk Maxwell, perhaps as emil
nent in the mathematics of electricity
as Faraday was in experiment, pre-
sided every evening over the prayer
of his children, and was as remark
able for his charity as for his relig-
ious spirit Charles Frederick Gauss
was one of the greatest of mathema-
ticians; Frederick William Bessel one
of the most eminent astronomers;
Augustine Cauchy was the prince of
French mathematician, with whom is
associated in merit his disciple, Victor
Alexander Puiseux. Leverrier was the
first of French astronomers in his age
But the list of scientific geniuses is
unending-Poinsot, Charles Hermite,
Weierstrass, Cuvier, de Beaumont,
Sainte-Claire Deville, Daubree, Dana,
Berzilius, Liebig, G. B. A. Dumas
Wurtz, Chevreue, Bernard, Pasteur,
Rumford, Davy, Mayer, Joule, Him,
Rankine, Kelvin, Ga1vani, Coulomb
Ohm, De la Rivl, Oersted, Siemens,
Fresnel, Fitzeau, Foncault, Blot, Be
querel, Secchi, Hauy, Agassiz, etc.. etc.
Their name in legion. These were the
makers of science, all men of religious
conviction, who never saw any con.
tradiction between their faith and
their discoveries, or found themselves
tramelled by the former in their mar
vellous scientific research.

FOUNDERS OF MODERN SCIENCE
LEADERS IN SCIENTIFIC PROG
REss WERE CHRISTIAN, AND,
IN MANY CASES, CATHOLIC
DID NOT BELIEVE IN OPPOSI-
TON OF TRUE SCIENCE AND
RELIGION.

1t is only men who are ignorant of
religion and, in particular, who are
ignorant of Christianity, and, in fact,
who are not acquainted with even nat
ural philosophy that make the rash
and untrue statement that modern
science, in it's marvellous develop
ment, contradicts the dogmas and the
data of religion, and especially of
Christianity, writes Rev. d. Lynch, S.
j., in the Live Issue. Such an asser-
ton is no longer made by scientists
worthy of the name; they know too
much. 1t is only the retailers of sci
ence who keep harping on the old
chord Even their number is small,
and daily diminishing. Eminent men
of science unhesitatingly acknowledge
that they have nothing to do with the
realm of the spirit, except to admit
it's existence. Sometimes, indeed,
men distinguished in some particular
branch Of science, overstepping their
legitimate bounds and abusing their
position as we'll as the confidence of
the young inte1ligences who followed
them, presumed to dogmatise in ques-
tons of which they were almost en-
tirely ignorant. But the greater men
have not failed to contradict them.
Not only is there no opposition be-
tween true religion and real science,
but it is admitted that there cannot
be: their field and their methods are
absolutely distinct In fact, the most
obvious truth of all is occasionally for
gotten or obscured-that the founders
namely of modern science, the giant
intelligences to whom science owes
it's chief advances, not only saw no
opposition between science and relig-
ions, but were themselves distinctly
men of the past-Copernicus Calico,
Keppler, Newton, Leibnitz, Euler,
Boyle, Mariotte, Halter, Linneus, La
voisfer, etc.-these never dreamed of
contradiction between religious and
scientific truth, nor felt themselves re-
trained in their investigations by re-
ligious convictions or teaching. The
truth was that they were greatly kept
from absurdity and error by the re-
l1SIOuS LG1CnluS Ill WulCu LACy US"
lieved. They knew, with the eminent
scientist, Lord Rayleigh, that a nat
uralist had no more right than any
other educated person to play the role
of a prophet; that in the depths of
their own theories lurked profoundest
mysteries IL not contradictions; and
that to explain the higher nature and
destiny of man they needed more than
calculation and experiment.
Some of the most startling scien-
tific discoveries, and still more the
greatest and more far-reaching appli-
cations of science, were made in the
nineteenth century. The scientists Of
an earlier day believed in God and in
the immortality Of the soul. The re-
ligious beliefs and the scientific
modesty or reserve of those of our
own day are sufficiently known. It il
worth recalling that the eminent men

CERTAINTY.

Notwithstanding our numerous col
1eges of agriculture, our professors OF
farming, the countless volumes of in
struction for tillers of the soil, the lau-
datory screeds on the ideality of rural
life indited by residents OF the city,
the fulsome flattery of designing
,schemers whose main object in life is
to farm the farmers, the absolute es-
sentiality of the farm and the farming
industry in the worlds affairs and the
prominent part it plays in the scheme
of human existence has been strange
ly overlooked and little commented
upon.
And another curious fact is that
mighty few people, even among those
who spend their lives on the farm,
have correct conception of one nee
essary thing to prosperous and sue
cessful agricultural operations. =.
The three great essentials of hui
man existance are food, raiment and
shelter, deprived of which every form
of human life would be speedily oblit-
Grated.
Expert staticians inform us that %
per cent of the food and raiment
supply comes from the farm while a
larger portion of the building mater
ial comes from the same source. Only
four per cent of the worlds supply
of food and clothing are derived from
what may be termed natural sources,
such as fisheries, the chase and
such things as can be obtained from
unimproved and unoccupied lands. In
other words only four per cent of the
worlds population could be sustained
without the farm and its products.
There are two great divisions OF
farming: raising things and growing
things.
Farmers raise cattle, horses, pigs
sheep, poultry and every form of an,
imal life; they grow wheat, oats, bar.
ley and every form of vegetable life

PLAYING FOR VOTES
Bulletins Issued by Republican Con-
gressional Committee Say Farm
Produce Prices Have Fallen.

Washington, July PA strong bid
for the farmer vote will DE mace by
the Republican managers IN the COM
ing congressional campaign. This is
indicated in bulletins just made public
at the Washington headquarters Of
the Republican congressional commit
tee. An effort will be made to show
that the transfer of agricultural prod
ucts to the free list has depressed
prices and that the farmers have SUI
fered accordingly.
One bureau of the congressional
committee is studying farm prices
and placing the results before the
public. Special attention has been
given to the agricultural states of the
Northwest. In the campaigns Of 1910
and 1912 the Republicans made fair
showing in these states, but this fall
the party managers expect to recover
the losses of the two preceding
elections.
In their missionary endeavors
among the farmers, the Republican
managers will attempt to bring home
to the individual the loss that it is
charged he has sustained by free list
ing agricultural products. In a bulle-
tin bearing on conditions in Mime
sofa the statement is made that "Min-
nesota wheat farmers have lost an
average of 500 year by the slump
in the price of wheat since the Repub-
lican party went out OF power"
The bulletin relating to the stu
alton in Minnesota reads in part, as
follows:

put together have lost $93,OOO,OOO a

"DAMPHOOLISHNESS."

The governors Office OF the
state of Minnesota was run by
stenographer Saturday. Eberhart
was off giving lectures. Auinisr,
private secretary, was up north
with the country editors; A. M.
HAYES and his wife, both en-
ployed in the governors office,
left last Wednesday on a va
cation. Miss Vera Shepard was
in charge. The "mask" is GER
tainly off the administration. It's
everybody get all he can now be-
fore the storm breaks in Novem-
ber.-Anoka Herald.
The above is the best example OF
what used to be termed in the "cow''
country, "plumD foolishness," that has
come to our attention Tor zo-1e time.
If Governor Eberhart was the first
public official to go chautauqualng
while serving the state or nation the
criticism might lie.
President Roosevelt during his term
of office went hunting several times
and was absent for longer continu-
GUS period than the Governor will be
on his lecture trip, and when he made
these excursions he took particular
pains to place himself BEYOND the
reach of the telephone and telegraph
while the Governor is in constant COM
munication reach of his office.
Governor Frank Hanley, of Indiana,
and Governor Folk, of Missouri, spent
much more time on the platform than
has the present Governor. To our
personal knowledge Champ Clark and
the late Senator Deliver, paired with
each other during congressional ses-
sion and took a trip over the Chautau-
qua circuit holding a series of joint
debates. The late Governor Johnson
earned five times as much lecturing as
Governor Eberhart has during his
long tenure of office. Secretary Bryan
has no hesitation in supplementing his
$4,000 year by going on the Chau-
tauqua platform. Congressman Nc
Kinley, of Colorado, the great pro-
gressive reformer, was present at our
Chautauqua and has not answered a
congressional roll call i'll swo months.
No one was injured in any possible
way or manner by the absence of the
administration force from the Capitol
on the date spoken of. Two thirds Of
the state capitols close all day Satur-
day during the summer months and as
far as we know, all of them close on
Saturday afternoons during that per-
iod. If any unexpected matter had
come up Miss Vera wou:G have been
as capable of handling it as would
George F. or Archie and we are not
dead sure but she could have handled
it as well as Adolph o. or William E.
Most of the criticism of public men
supplementing their official incomes
from the Chautauqu= service comes
from men who could not get fifteen
cents for a lecture from any Chau-
tauqua company.
