But il remained for the tall gent with
long whiskers ami striped clothes to
officially bestow the title on Mr.. Walter

In order to test the judgment of the
old boy, who commanCs respect ali over

some one in Chicago mailed an envelope

DATE OF CHRISTMAS
ROME HAS ALWAYS CELEBRATED
THE FEAST OF THE NATIVITY
ON DECEMBER Is.

The custom of celebrating a special
day in memory of Christ's nativity is
one which dates from the earliest
ages of Christianity. From primitive
times the Eastern Church solemniZed
the birthday of Our Blessed Lord on
January sixth. Rome, however, with
never-failing constancy, has always
celebrated this event on the twenty
fifth day of December. Dom SWith-
Der Banner, o. S. b., is of the opinion
that Christmas must have been insti-
tuted in Rome some time after the
year 243.
Hippolytus may be cited as one of
the earliest authorities in favor of the
twenty-fifth day of December. He
lived in Rome during the first half
of the third century, and must have
had the best opportunities of learning
the primitive tradition of the Mother
and Mistress of All Churches. In a
recently discovered commentary of
his, ON the Book of Daniel, quoted by
Monsignor Duchesne, the date when
Christ was born is set down as the
tWenty-fifth day of December. A
Roman calendar of the early part of
the fourth century also inscribes the
twenty-fifth of December as the birth
day of Christ.
Pagan Rome also kept the festival
on the tWenty-fifth of December. 1t
was the Nativitas Invicti (Solis), the
birthday of the sun; and the sugges-
| ton has been made that this infu-
enced the Church in fixing Christmas
on the same day. Be that as it may,
| one cannot fail to see a striking
parallel between the day of the winter
solstice, when the sun is, as it were,
born anew, and the old Sol Justitia,
the sun of justice, who was believed
| by the Roman Christians to have
risen for the first time upon the world
upon that day.
The feast of Christmas, then, must
be regarded as essentially a feast of
| the Latin Church. It's institution
| dates from Rome about the end of the
third century, From Rome it found
| it's way into the East.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE AND
THE CHURCH.

We have received a letter-too
long to be published in fulI-from
Mr.. Henry Deutsch, a Christian
Scientist Of Minneapolis, in which
he takes exception to statement
in a recent issue of The Catholic
Bulletin to the effect that "Chris-
tian Scientists are obsessed by the
vulgar spirit of hatred against the
Church. " -.-
Mr.. Deutsch claims that this is
not true. christian Science" he
says, els u religion of love and
non-interference with any other
religion" "Christian Scientists
respect the religious faith of all
other denominations it
differs with the doctrines and
creeds of other denominations, but
seeks and has with them no con-
troversy or quarrel" and much
more to the same effect.
We have little objection to tax
ing Mr.. Deutsch's estimate of
Christian Science at it's face
value; and for the sake of that
harmony which should exist in the
religious world, we are willing to
concede that the use of the word
hatred was, perhaps, a little
too strong in this case. We say
perhaps" advisedly, because Mr..
Deutsch's letter affords us an ad-
ditional reason for suspecting that
Christian Scientists are not so free
from animosity towards The Cath
Ollie Church as he would have us
believe. He says: "Your papers
are never fair enough or sufficient
ly certain Of their premises to be
willing to publish both sides of a
debatable question and let their
readers judge which is correct. y
Is this an example of the attitude
of Christian Scientists towards
things Catholic?

RECOGNITION OF THE HOLY
SEE.

The announcement that Eng
land has accredited Sir Henry
Howard as Envoy to the Holy See
is matter Of more than ordinary
interest to all Catholics. Whether
the appointment is permanent or
only temporary has not been off
cially disclosed and, no doubt,
will depend largely on the inn
portance Of the issues that may
arise and the manner i'll which
Sir Henry carries on the negotia-
lions. 1t was a wise and prudent
move Oh the part of England
inasmuch as there is q large num-
Der of Catholics under the juris-
diction of her flag at home and
in the colonies, and questions OF
a politico-religious nature arise
from time to time, involving a
reference to the Vatican and it is
well to have an accredited repre-
sentative there to take up these
questions directly with the Papal
Secretary of State.
Russia also has renewed hel
former relations with the Holy
See by sending an ambassador il
the person Of Baron Nelidow who
has just presented his credentials
to the Holy Father. Prussia ano
Austria are officially represented
there. Other countries, too, are
considering the ACCESSIBILITY OF
sending ENJOYS to the Vatican

Holy See plays in internationa.
affairs is a matter of deep inter
est to Catholics i'll all countries

gradually coming into its own.

A MISLEADING STATEMENT.

Last week the st. Paul Dispatch
gave prominence to a statement,
purpOrting to come from the
Health Department, that there
were three times as many cases
of contagious disease in the paro-
chial schools as i'll the public
schools of the city in proportion
to the attendance. The article
stated that by "parochial schools "
was meant UNCONVENTIONAL and
private schools Of all kinds.
For the "parochial schools, in
this far-fetched and unusual sense,
we hold no brief; but as far as
the Catholic schools of this city
are concerned, we challenge the
truth Of the statement made III
the article III question and char
acterize it as exaggerated and
misleading. It is probably the
product of the oyer-stimulated
imagination of a reporter who al
lowed his avidity for news" to
outrun his judgment.
There are, no doubt, isolated
cases of contagious disease in our
Catholic parochial schools; but
the number is much smaller than
in the public schools in proper
ton to the attendance. Indeed,
the Catholic schools have been
singularly free from such cases,
and it is utterly unfair to them
to give publicity to Il statement
which has no foundation iii fact.
Ii the Health Department OF
this city wishes to send physicians
and trained nurses into the paro-
chial schools as it does into the
public schools, those in charge will
make no objection. On the con
trary, they will be pleased to at
ford them every facility for a
thorough and scientific inspection
In fact, we believe it is the duty
of the Health Department to give
the parochial schools the same at
tention in this regard as it gives
to the public schools. The pupils
have just as much right to it
because Catholic taxpayers arc

The Christmas spirit is best ex-
pressed in the words of the angels,
"Glory to God in the highest, and
on earth peace to men of good
will.
On the first Christmas night the
shepherds heard with rapture this
angelic song; and when it had
faded away into the far depths Of
the skies, and the Messengers of
God had gone from their sight,
they cried to one another, Let us
go over to Bethlehem and let us
see this word which is come to
pass which the Lord hath Showed
to us" They went in haste; they
found the Babe in the crib; they
adored Him as their God; and
they went home "glorifying and
praising God for all the things
they had heard and seem
This simple story never loses its
charm. The divine wisdom that
is i'll it gives the theory and prac-
tice of all holiness. To be holy
is to love God with ones whole
heart and soul, with all one Is
strength and all ones mind; il
