CONGREGATIONAL SINGING
PEOPLE OF ST. BERNARD'S PAR
ISH ARE REHEARSING THE
PLAIN CHANT OF VEsPERS AND
BENEDIcTION UNDER DIREC-
TON OF Mr.. MARkoE.

Some two hundred members of ST.
Bernard's Church met in their hall
last Friday evening to rehearse the
new Vatican Vesper melodies, just off
the press, and listen to an address
on Congregational Singing" by VIM
F. Markoe.
Mr.. Markoe's remarks proved not
only interesting and instructive" as
predicted, but his vivid description OF
the singing of the TIE Deum in St
Peters at Rome by $4,000 voices, and
the remarkable ceremony known in
the days Of the Temporal Power, as
the Blessing of the City and the
World" by Pope Plus TX in which
100000 pilgrims, tourists and sight
seers from all parts of the world
united in singing, "viva Pho Mono
was very impressive and aroused con.
siderable enthusiasm.
From present indications it is ex
pected that with two or three more
rehearsals and instructions the ma
jority of the congregation will be able

The progress of the experiment will
be watched by other parishes, and
If successful, may be taken up in
other churches. 1t would certainly
prove an attractive feature of the
coming Lenten services on Sunday
evenings.

F|RST7F Rec SCHOOLS
ESTABLISHED BY THE CHURCH IN
THE SIXTH cENTURY-NoT AN
AMERICAN PRODUCT.

Many Americans are under the i'm
preston that the idea Of free schools
is product of American genius. The
truth is that free education for chill
dren was officially established in the
Catholic Church fourteen hundred
years ago. In the year of Our Lord
500 the Council of Watson praised the
idea and recommended the establish
ment of public schools. In the year
500 a synod of Catholic Bishops at
Mentz ordered parish priests to estab-
lish schools in the towns and villages,
80 that "the little children of all the
faithful could learn lessons from them.
Let them receive and teach these with
the greatest charity, that they them
selves may shine as stars forever. Let
them receive no remuneration from
scholars, unless what parents, through
charity may voluntarily offer" Such
are the exact words of decree issued
by synod of Catholic Bishops just
692 years before Columbus discovered
America.
