English wanted! This is the cry,
says 1.-The Field Affair."" that continues
to come. to us from the Far East.
The following testimony is from
Sister of long experience in China,
one of the Franciscan Missionaries
of Mary:
/ have met many Americans here,
and among them some Catholics. You
do not know how glad these latter
are to know that an American Semi
nary for Foreign Missions has been
started. One and all eXclaim, That's
just what is wanted! We need priests
who can speak our own language"
In her latest letter Sr. Mary Ange-
line tells us some bits of news that
will interest our readers, many of
whom have come to feel we'll acquaint-
ed with the little group of Canadian
Sisters at Canton. She writes:
The war is still carried on in many
parts of this poor country. We are
quiet in Canton, except that each day
rebel suspects are disposed of. But
it is a season of much sickness and
many deaths.
The little Field Afar" comes regu-
larly. 1t is like a long-cherished friend
who walks in quietly and takes her
place as one of the family, making
all happier for her presence.
We are very joyful because we have
been able to buy a little Catholic
child who had been sold to a pagan.
The sum required-seventy-five dol
lars-was one to be looked at twice
by those on the mission field, but
our Mother, weighing the money and
the soul in the balance, decided that
we could deprive ourselves of some.
thing and before long make up the
amount God, seeing her generous
heart, sent us help through charitable
friends, and thus another soul has
been won for Him.

SISTER NURSES IN WAR.

No tributes that have been paid to
the work of the Catholic Sisterhoods
have been more cordial or more en-
phatic than those coming from non-
Catholic sources. 1t is significant
fact that those most prejudiced
against the Sisters have always been
persons who knew the least about
them, while the warmest friends of
the Sisters are those who came in
contact with them and their labors for
humanity. 1t is even so today. In
fact, those who are lOudest in their
denunciation of things Catholic are
those who know nothing about the
Catholic Church.
IF l had ever felt prejudiced
against the Sisters as nurses, my eX-
perience with them druing the war
would have dissipated it entirely. The
world has known no nobler and more
heroic women than these found in the
ranks of the Catholic Sisterhoods. =
NJ. A. Livermore, "A woman's Story
of the War
"0n all Gods green earth there are
no purer, no nobler, no more kind
hearted and selfsacrificing women
than those who wear the sombre garb
of Catholic Sisters. During the war
/ had many opportunities for obserV-
ing their noble and heroic work, not
only in the camp and hospital, but on
the death-swept field of battle. Right
in the fiery front of dreadful war,
where bullets Kissed in maddening
glee, and shot and shell flew madly
by with demoniac shrieks, where dead
and mangled forms lay with pale and
blood-flecked faces, yet wear the
scowl of battle, have seen the black
robed Sisters moving over the field,
their solicitous faces wet with the
tears of sympathy, administering to
the wants Of the wounded, and whis-
pering words of comfort into the ears
soon to be deafened by the cold, i'm
placable hand of death. Their only
recompense the sweet, soul-soothing
consciousness that they were doing
their duty; their only hope of reward
that peace and eternal happiness
which awaited them beyond the star
emblazoned battlements above. / am
not a Catholic, but l stand ready at
any and all times to defend these
noble women, even with my life, for I
owe that life to them. Captain

 The verdict of not guilty was not unexpected to me, as had the consciousness of knowing that | was innocent of any wrong doing. and that I had not misappropriateG or converted to my own use one penny of the money paid to mo by the Law Enforcement league oe Jefferson county. but had applied every cent of 1t to the expenditures for the enforcement of the liquor laws of the state and the prosec'i- tion of blind tigers which was In accord with the wishes of the Law Enforcement league.
 T undertook this responsibility reluctantly, when the executive committee of the Law Enforcement league requested that they. had been unsuccessful in their efforts, control of it, better results could be obtained. l not only spent every cent for the purpose which they intended 1t to be spent. in the dp- prehension and prosecution of the violators of the liquor laws, but I expended out of my own pocket a large sum in excess of that turned over to me by these gentlemen. Tine ' judgment of the court that there was not one scintilla of evidence sustaining any of the 80 or mors specifications filed against me is exceedingly gratifying, and is a clear demonstration that justice will triumph in the end"

been put back into the property in recog- nition of public duty. This reinvest- ment has amounted to $27,0oo,O0o. Every man who has bought a dollars worth of from the Southern railway has contributed to it's improvement as an instrument of transportation, and every man who sees the need for further im- provement of that instrument can secure it more surely by buying another dollar s worth of transportation than by critical demand that bricks be made without straw.
 What has been done may be taken as an earnest of what will be done if Southern Railway company is permitted to have Its share In the prosperity of the south. In the case of a railroad property under progressive management this means voluntary anticipation of many of the demands which are today so often crystallized in law. Railroad managers are human men. They take pride and pleasure in leading the way in progress. They are not stubborn mules who resist for the pleasure of resistance. They want to install every safety device of approved merit: they want to give pro gressively good, better and the best serv- ice; they want to build new station build ings, separate grade crossings and pro- vide modern equipment; in other words, to do of their own volition most of the things the public wants them to do What restraints the small boy who looks in the window of a toyshop ?-simply the lack of means.
 s"One ventures, therefore, to suggest That the best way to secure these things is to secure prosperous railroads. This is more certain. as 1t is more natural and more speedy remedy than the compulsion of law, with the prosecuting attorney in the general managers office and the sheriff waiting at the door for the trea surer.
 A prosperous railroad system means a powerful factor enlisted in maintaining and promoting prosperity of general busi- ness, for 1t means prompt and efficient transportation service. reasonable rates, the maintenance of large and well paid resident population of employees, and q liberal customer for manufactured ar ticles. It means. furthermore, good rail-

abreast of the highest standards of the art of railroading, and itself give play to the initiative and genius of it's managers in invention and putting into practice new methods for the promotion of the safety and convenience of the public.
 The Ideal Picture
 That ideal picture is not impossible of attainment. The great Pennsylvania railroad has realized it in the past and is today monument to the happy combi- nation of territory which during the past 40 years has rapidly developed in population and material prosperity, with a consistent, progressive and always hon. est management of it's chief transporta- ton facility. In that case the commu- nty and the railroad have grown in prosperity together, and the initiative and progressive practice of the railroad has not been the least factor in promoting the mutual prosperity
 What has happened on the Pennsyl- wanna can be realized elsewhere if the conditions can be reproduced, and the first of such conditions of mutual prosperity is a mutual understanding, that the railroad has needs as we'll as obligations.
 ''rhe railroad for which I speak recog nizes it's position of dependence upon the good will of the community 1t serves and its obligation to deserve that good will
  dealing with all men. On the other hand, it asks appreciation of its problems and promises that as it shall share in the inevitable increase of prosperity of the south it will employ it's portion of such prosperity for the benefit of the people of the south, after it shall have met it's just obligations and the fair expecta- tion of it's stockholders for that limited and reasonable income which was the in- ducement for their adventure of capital.
 Based Upon Performance
 'This is no mere promise for the fu- ture, but is based upon performance In the past 10 years the Southern Railway company has had the good fortune to be able to pay It's debts and annual divi- dends averaging 305 per cent to It's preferred stockholders but the remainder of its income, upon which the stockhold- CTS might have asserted a claim, has
