The spring has come.
PASSION SUNDAY.

Tomorrow will be Passion Sunday,
so-called because the church begins
on this day to make the sufferings OF
our Redeemer her chief thought and
the leading concern Of her sacred
liturgy. While we mediate on the
sacred passion of our Lord Jesus
Christ let us weep over our sins,
which are the cause of his sufferings
and death. Everything around us
urges us to mourn. The images OF
the saints in church are covered, the
very crucifix is yelled from our sight.
In the gospel We are told by st.
John that the Jews picked up stones
to cast at Him and Jesus hid Himself
and went out of the temple. 1t is to
express this deep humiliation that
the church wells the cross. A God
hiding himself that He may evade
the anger of men-what a mystery!
Is it weakness? It is that He fears
death? Move shall soon see Him
going to meet his enemies. But at
present He hides Himself from them
regarding Him has not yet been
fulfilled. Besides, his death is not
to be by stoning; He is to die upon
a cross, the tree of malediction,
which from that time forward is to
be the Tree of Life. Our first par
ents, Adam and Eve, hid themselves
because of their guilty conscience;
Jesus hides Himself that He may
atone for their sin on the tree and
reveal Himself on it as the Redeemer
of their sin.

NATHAN's RECORD.

That the American Federation of
Catholic Societies was fully justified
in protesting the appointment of the
notorious Nathan as Italy's repre-
sentative at the Panama Exposition
will be conceded by all fair minded
persons when they learn his record.
Nathan was reared in the slums OF
Whitechapel, speaks English with the
lowest Cockney accent, was pitch
forked by Masonry from post to post.
had to resign the position Of Grand
Master of Italian Masonry, as well
as that of Mayor of Rome, and was
repudiated by self-respecting Israel
ties. And when to this is added the
insults hurled at the Catholic relig-
ion. the Pope and church, on every
possible occasion during his seven
years tenure of office in the Capitol,
to put ii mildly 1t will not insure
him in the States the post Of a
persona grata.

WHY THEY ARE THRoNGED.

Non-Catholics frequently express
surprise n. the large attendance
every Sunday at Catholic churches.
But Catholics are not surprised, says
the Sacred Heart Review. They
know that If they do not hear mass
on Sunday they are not Catholics at
all. The church declares that to
absent ones self from mass wilfully
on Sundays or on holy days OF obi
cation is a mortal sin; and wilfull
and persistent mass-missing makes
Catholics outcasts from the house OF
faith. Careless and Indifferent
though many Catholics may seem
ingly be. there are few indeed who
would care to incur that penalty.
For deep down in the heart OF the
Catholic is a love and generation for
the holy mass, the great sacrifice
first offered by Christ Himself.
The little Catholic child, coming
to the use of reason, learns from his
catechism, Remember thou keep
holy the Sabbath day,"-keep 1t holy
BY hearing mass, by prayer and
other pious acts; and he learns, too,
the preceps Of the church bidding
him: ITO hear mass on Sundays and
holy days" and that to disobey this
command is to commit mortal sin.
But even before the catechism was
placed in his hands, or its words
repeated to him, he knew that Ego
ing to mass" was the great duty
and privilege each Sunday brought.
His very earliest memories are OF
being taken to mass by father or
mother, and of the awe and rev.
erence that filled his heart when told
that Christ Himself was present on
the altar.
An aged priest in a big American
city loved to tell his people about
when he was a little child and
walked through a path in the
woods-his hand held fast in his
mother's-to a village chapel miles
distant. They started on the journey
at dawn, to be in time for mass.
"That was the beginning Of my
training for the priesthood" he
-saia. ->eMy mother taught me that
no sacrifice was too great to make
If by making II we could hear mass"
Some, particularly among the
younger men, may attend because
they are obliged to hear mass under
pain of mortal sin, but the vast
majority are there because they
could not stay away. Their souls
hunger for what the mass can give
strength, sustenance and the peace of
God.

PUBLIC POLICY ANw vows.

A case of particular interest to re-
ligious orders in this country has
been brought before the Supreme
Court Of the United States. and its
decision promises to have far-reach-
ing consequences among all who bind
themselves by a vow of poverty. A
United States Circuit Court OF APP
peals has already ruled such a vow
TO be against public policy, basing its
position, we believe, on the we'll
known tendency of the civil law to
protect the family or relatives in the
matter of the transfer by inner
itance. The present question, as ex-
planned by the Providence Visitor.
arises out Of the death OF Father
Wuth, Benedictine. who at the
time Of his death in 1901. was in
charge of a German Catholic church
at Springfield. MINI. He had been
a member OF the order for about fifty
years, and like all others who en-
brace the religious life. took his VOWS
with the usual understanding con-
oerning the possession OF property
His rights were transferred TO the
order, and In return 1t became obli-
gated TO educate. maintain and sup
port him for life. Father Wuth was
the author Of several books. and
these were earning royalties at the
time Of his death. Also in his case
