A CUTE" BURLESQUE.

On Friday evening, February
Is, a public masquerade ball was
held in a village less than one hun
dred miles from st. Paul, Among
those who participated was a
young woman dressed in the garb
of Sister of Charity She is a
domestic in the house of Cath
Ole woman who is prominent in
church affairs and who helped to
select her costume and dress her
for the occasion. When a friend
of this Catholic woman remon-
strated with her on the impro-
priety of such a travesty on re-
ligion she was told it was very
"cute."
When a Catholic woman sees
nothing wrong in such burlesuue
of the religious life she ought to
be taken in hand by some good
friend who can give her a few
elementary lessons in the funda-
mental principles of propriety and
good breeding. Such a woman is
woefully lacking in what may be.
called the religious instinct which
tells the ordinary person, whether
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1914-02-28

Catholic or Protestant, that it is
not "cute" or proper to masquer-
ade in the habit of Sister Just
for fun.
Some months ago several stu
dents of Yale took part in a public
procession dressed as nuns. So
severe was the general condemna-
ton of their act that they made
an abject apology for their
thoughtless conduct. In the pres
ent case this Catholic woman s
conduct is much more reprehen-
sible because she ought to know
better. Is it too much to expect
that she will offer a public apology
for the scandal she gave? It is
bad enough to have the enemies
of the Church caricature her sa-
cred institutions; but we expect
better things from Catholics.

A FAILURE.

At the recent meeting of the Anti
Alcohol congress in Berlin, it was
stated by DR.. Delbruck of Bremen,
the president of the congress, that
beer-drinking as a means of combat
ing alcoholism has been clearly shown
to be a failure. 1t leads often to the
use of distilled liquors, but in itself it
produces all the evils of whisky. "Of
149 patients who were treated in a
North German private asylum for
drunkards, Al had been alcohoIized,"
said DR.. Delbruck, 'by drinking spirits,
80 by wine drinking and 78-or more
than half-by the excessive consump-
ton of beer. The belief that delirium
tremens was unknown among beer
drinkers was mistake. 1t was impos-
sible to convey by statistics the extent
of the misery caused by what he de-
scribed as beer alcoholism. Prof.
Cramer, Of Gottingen, held that the al
cohol habit is durable IL taken In time
and treated at suitable drunkards

INVOCATION OF LINCOLN
ATTENDED THEATRE ON GOOD
FRIDAY NIGHT AT THE INSIST
EMIT SOLICITATION OF HIS
WIFE.

There are those who, while rever-
ing the memory of Lincoln, whose an
niversary was observed during the
month, are heard to express regret
that, in addition to meeting death at
the hands of an assassin, his end
should have come in a theatre, on
Good Friday night
But it ought to be borne in
mind" says the Ave Maria, that
the anniversary of our Saviours
death was less generally observed
sixty years ago than now. Fur
thermore, we have the assurance of
Major J. B. Merwin, of Middlefield,
Conn, an intimate friend of Lincoln,
that he was very reluctant to attend
theatre on Good Friday, saying to
Mrs Lincoln, when she came to an
nounce the appointment she had made
for him major Merwin was present.:
I don't think we ought to go to the
theatre tonight. You know it is day
sacred to many of our best people, 1t
was for peace sake-to avoid having
a scene-that Lincoln consented to
keep the engagement Major Merwin
makes these statements in letter of
recent date, which lies before u.s."

"a NEW LIGHT. :"

Under this caption the Atlantic
Monthly for January published
the first installment of an article
by Abraham Nitric Rihbany in
which he details his experiences
in the American high school at
Suk-el- Gharb, a village about nine
miles East of Beyrout. This in
stitution is a Presbyterian board
ing school under the direction of
an American missionary, Rev.
Theodore Pond.
The reader is not left long in
doubt regarding the significance
of the title. Before he reads many
paragraphs he cannot help COM
ing to the conclusion that this
American high school, maintained
ostensibly for the purpose of af-
fording those who patronize it an
education similar to that given in
the public schools of America, is
in reality a proselytizing institu-
ton.
From the day on which this
young Syrian, who describes his
experiences at this boarding
school, was enrolled among its pu-
pills, every effort was made to up
root the faith of his early years
and make him a Protestant. The
Protestant Bible was thrust into
his hands as one of the most i'm
portant subjects of study. In
deed, it assumed in his mind a
above all others dur
ing his first year in school. "To

Very often we receive letters
for the "Question and Answer
department asking us to reply to
certain questions Fright away, y
lin next weeks ISSUE" or "by
mail" We are very anxious to
oblige all who patronize the CUES
ton Box, but it is impossible to
answer more than a small number
of questions each week. Besides
the only fair way is to answer
them, as far as possible, in the
order in which they are received.
No questions will be answered by
mail unless an addressed and
stamped envelope is enclosed, and
even then it may take some time
before a reply can be sent.

Daily attendance at Mass dur
ing Lent is an excellent means Of
sanctifying this holy season. 1t is
a spiritual exercise which many
can perform who are legitimately
excused from fasting. Try it for
a few weeks. 1t means getting up
at least half an hour earlier than
usual; it means a little bodily dis
comfort in leaving a warm home
at an early hour; but it is worth
the cost.

SOCIAL LEGISLATION AND
A CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS"

judicial constructions revised or
neutralized by orderly processes
These reactionaries will not admit
that what has been judicially read
into the Constitution may be judicial
ly or constitutionally read out again.
Rights of the Individual Emphasized.
The prohibition of taking life, liber-
ty, and property without due process
of law is very old, colder than Runny-
mede" No fair and intelligent man
desires to see it taken out of the Con-
stitution. The rights that it is de-
signed to protect are too fundamental,
too precious, to be exposed to even the
temporary alteration of despotic
legislature or an arbitrary administra-
tive official. The obvious and histor-
ical purpose of this prohibition is to
prevent a man from being legally
robbed of his goods, or subjected to
slavery, or kept in Jail without trial.
The overwhelming majority of those
who advocate the social legislation
that we are discussing are quite as
anxious as Dr. Hill that these consti-
tutional guarantees should remain in
violate and inviolable. Indeed, they
would establish them still more firmly,
by cutting away the fungous accretion
of mistaken judicial construction.
They would make as clear and sacred
as possible the provision, for example,
that no person shall be deprived of
liberty without due process of law;
but they would put an end to that ul'
Observation-Disclosures conception of hber'
ty which prevents legislation for the
protection of economic opportunity
and humane living. They do not be-
lieve that the liberty of the economi'
cally strong to depress by means OF
an apparently free contract the eco
nomically weak below the level OF
health and decency, or the liberty OF
the latter, by means of the same
free" contract, to continue in this
subnormal conditions a kind of
liberty that is worth preserving un-
der the sheltering arm Of the Consti-
tuition.
OOCIdI hS1OFI1STS MOI AHdFCnhSLS'
Dr. Hills implicit classification of
social reformers with those anarchis-
tic-minded persons who would abolish
! all constitutional checks upon arbitra-
ry governmental action, is unscientific
and really subversive of the Constitu'
ton. 1t is unscientific because it is
not based upon an accurate and com
prehensive view of our industrial ills
and because it neglects to point out
specifically wherein the spirit of the
Constitution is opposed to any of the
particular reforms that are contem
plated His whole argument is harm
full to the Constitution because il
tends to convey the impression that
the latter is inconsistent with urgent
ly needed improvements in our in
dustrial situation. This is the Bour'
bon attitude which has in all ages
induced we'll meaning men to set
their faces against constructive social
changes, and needlessly encouraged
the forces of revolution.

Have you made up your mind
to observe the Lenten regulations
this year better than ever before
During Lent Catholics are ex-
pected to have the courage Of their
convictions and give public profess
sion of their loyalty to the Church
by observing the fast and alb
stinence prescribed for all. Let
your nOn-Catholic friends see that
you are in earnest about the per-
Torrance of your religious obliga-
tons.

Some people say they cannot
fast in Lent because it gives them
a headache, or because they lose
flesh, or because a hundred and
one things happen if they curtail
their appetite for food in any way.
Such people act as if they believed
that the Lenten self-denial was in
tended to be a source of great joy
and comfort to them. Fasting and
abstinence produce certain
amount of bodily discomfort-and
that is the intention of the Church.
Do not be a mollycoddle who
would like to masquerade as a
saint.

Favorable replies have been received
from merchants in Brazil. Peru. ECUADOR,
Uruguay. Paraguay Argentine, and
many other countries. Among others
from which answers have come fsvora-
bio to establishing trade relations, is
Bulgaria. OF course nothing can be done
IN this relation until the European war
IL over.
Americans Get short End.
The figures Of 1912 show that OF Latin
American imports the United States fur
nished only one-fourth while Germany
has large share over the trade. and the
United Kingdom Of Great Britain has
the largest. France also has shipped a
great deal OF its goods to South America
as we'll as many other countries from all
over the world. on account Of the proxi-
nifty OF the United states and the added
facility OF the Panama canal. II Is felt
the United States should be furnishing
a great deal more than imports for Latin
America.
on the other hand the figures show
that Americans get one-third' Of all that
Latin-America exports. In other words
the balance Of the trade with South
America is against the United States, and
the manufacturers seek 10 change that
condition.
