NOT THEIR COUNTRY YET.

When urging Irish recruits to join
the English army the War Office for.
gets the means by which Ireland was
annexed to Great Britain Neither by
nationality, religion or traits of char
acter has England anything in COM
mon with Ireland. 1t is the cry of the
War Office that the Irish are not en-
listing in a measure that would please
those who contend that Ireland should
do the fighting and let England keep
the factories going.
George Bernard Shaw describes the
situation very we'll in a recent COM
ment upon conditions in Ireland.
Until Home Rule energies from its
present suspended animation, shall
retain my Irish capacity Of criticizing
England with something Of the detach-
ment of foreigner, and perhaps with
slightly malicious taste for taking
the conceit out of her. Lord Kitchen
er made mistake the other day in
rebuking the Irish Volunteers for not
rallying faster to their country
They do not regard it as their country
yet. He should have asked them to
come forward as usual and help poor
old England through q stiff fight"
With what an envious eye the War
Office must look upon the existence
of the National Volunteers. How dis
pleasing it must be to the English
football player to be annoyed by the
thought that the National Volunteer
is not fighting the battles of England
in the trenches of France while he can
enjoy his athletics undisturbed. One
of the English papers commenting
upon the lack of enthusiasm and pa
triotism among the young men of
England declares that they need
more patriotism and less football"
But the crowds are going to see the
football games. The War Office is at
its wits end and the men of the fight
ing race are asked to save the day.
The members of the National Volun-
teers realize that they have been
tricked on the Home Rule bill and in
the language of Mr.. Shaw, ut is not
their country yet"

THE DAY OF RECKONING.

In commenting upon the action of
France in regard to the position the
government has taken in regard to
the Catholic soldiers, the priests and
nuns, the Pittsburg Observer points
out that the day of reckoning is come
for France. "Infidel France merits
the contempt of the whole Christian
world" continues the Observer. She
has rewarded the sublime patriotism
of the exiled priests and nuns by for
bidding the practice of religion in the
military hospitals, with are filled
with dying Catholic soldiers. The New
York Sun in the dispatch directed
from Paris declared that If there is
anything which will wreck the unity
in which all Frenchmen are living
since the war began it will be the re-
ligious question. Already the truce
has come near being broken by dis.
putes between the clerical and anti
clerical press. Death has the effect of
turning mems thoughts to the COM
forts Of religion and the anti-religious
papers claim that the church is taking
advantage Of this opportunity the war
has given It to offer consolation to the
wounded and dying. The anti-clericals
are much wrought up because nuns
who nursed the wounded place pious
medals upon then when they leave
the hospital. No question but should
these attacks even in France react
snpon their perpetrators.

The words of this missionary would
almost cause a heartbreak in anyone
who has a heart to feel the woes of
others. There are many Catholics
who could give him a goodly amount
to help him in this great work. They
would never miss it. God will not be

THE LYRICAL OPERA.

Let us hope for it's active revival
In its hey-day it's melodies were house,
hold classics satisfying the craving for
timefulness and having directly re-
filming influence upon the taste. Peo-
pie must sing and if good songs are
shut away from them they will sing
inferior stuff. There would be little
opportunity for common songs to get
a foothold If the sweet themes of long
ago were once more current. To love
them represents no inferior taste. To
affect superiority to them may show
superficial self-importance. Nothing
shows better musical sense than the
outspoken enjoyment of a really good
tune. c. H. X.

HOUSE AND SCHOOL A MATTER
OF LIFE AND DEATH SAYS
MISSIONARY.

Father Oswald Key Broken in Health.
1t is not often that the Catholic
Church Extension Society gets appeals
where the supplicant states that get
ting it is matter of life and DEATH
1t Is pretty strong language, and the
priests on the mission who bear all
sorts of hardships complain very little.
Oftentimes things that they need and
need so badly that it is a matter of
life and death are merely asked for
conditionally and when the office of
the society received the letter from
Father Key stating that he must have
a house and school. that it was a mat
ter Of life and death, they did not
even try to picture the great misery
of this missionary.
Il am very grateful to you for your
two gifts in the way of Mass inten.
tions." writes Father Key, II am glad
to think that some Catholics in the
States still remember my poor mission
and have compassion upon my great
poverty. I wish could bring home to
them the fact that am still without
a house or school. l sent you an
appeal some time ago and have pa.
tiently waited my turn Don't call me
impatient and thoughtless, please, be-
cause fully realize that many calls
for help come to you constantly from
all sides, but house and school is a
matter Of life and death to me and
my mission.
The Hardshlps Of the Mission Have
Done Their Work.
Seven years exposure to the tropi-
cal heats and rains have done their
work, and unless help comes soon in
the shape of funds to build q house
and school, my good Bishop Dougher-
ty will be mourning the loss Of one
Of his missionaries. E
God bless you for what you have
already done for me and may He in.

CLEAN MINDS AND CLEAN BODIES.

CLEAN MINDS AND CLEAN BODIES
DR.. James J. Walsh, the distin-
guished author and lecturer, in a re-
cent talk, made this novel PROPOSE
ton:
IF everybody would spend little
time cleaning out their minds and
give their ultra-clean bodies less at
tention, they would be better for it.
In $50 years, since Shakespeare, we
have progressed from dirty bodies and
clean minds, to clean bodies and dirty
minds-a doubtful betterment. In
Shakespeare's time London was I'M
speakably dirty. They had no UNDER
clothing, no bath tubs, and hundred
and one other things we consider
necessities today. They must have
smelled to heaven.
Nowadays any one who doesn't get
his bath every day has fit. We are
too clean of body to have enough time
to think of scrubbing out our minds.
We have to choose, you know. If we're
going to give all our time to one,
we're going to neglect the other. Lon
don may have been terribly foul $50
years ago, but the minds were clean.
do not fancy London's unsanitary
conditions three and one-half centuries
ago being transplanted here. We
wouldn't want anything like that, but
we ought to. reach a happy medium

LITERATURE FOR CHILDREN.

Professor C. E. Ayers, of the state,
normal schools of Warrensburg, No.;
speaking at the fourth annual conven--
ton Of the National Council of Teach
ers of English, said:
"The school starts at the wrong end.
1t wants the pupil to read Shake
speare, Thackeray, Milton or Carlyle.
but does not realize that they are too
heavy for the ordinary youth. He
may begin to read them, but he finds
they bore him, that he cannot grasp.
them. He then turns to Henty or the.
Deerfoot series.
''The teachers who want their pupils
to eschew the works of Henty, Porter.
and authors of their line, and all teach
ers should have this desire, should.
substitute something more attractive.
First they should be induced to-
read Shaw, Wilde or Galsworthy.
Such reading will give them appetite
for heavier works."
The creation of this appetite for
heavier works." as stimulated by
Shaw, means the reading of Maeter-
linck, Darwin, Hegel, Kant, Marx,
Nietzsche, and mny others.
These new favorites" are to take
the place of our old favorites, says
Professor Ayers. 1t is true that the"
Diamond Dick" type of ten-cent
novel has disappeared, and that in it's
place are the "true-to-life" stories in,
the hundreds of cheap literary .scav-
engers, the weekly and monthly maya
zines. The reading of Shaw will not
lift the literary aspirations of the
youth of the land out of the filthy rut
of scavenger publications as long as.
many of the present-day books, maya
zines and newspapers are allowed to-
circulate. The root of the evil iss
deeper seated, but the remedy is not
impractical, nor hopeless. Substitute
a Christian philosophy, Christian
literature, and the children of the LAND
will not have this appetite for the un-
natural and artificial romance as is
portrayed in the fiction of today.
