Chairman Adamson Of the commerce

THE Senate amendment" he said,
should be acceptable to all advocates

ST. PAUL PRIEST WITH FRENCH
ARMY

Father Paul Perigord, professor of
sacramento theology in ST. Paul Sem
mary, is at the front fighting with the
French army. He was promoted re-
Gently to lieutenancy, according to
word from him received by his broth
er, Rev. julie Perigord, pastor of the
Catholic Church in Hamel, Hennepin
county.
When France declared war Father
Perigord was studying in the Harvard
University Summer School. He was a
reservist and was called to France for
army service, not as company chap
lain, but as one of the men in the
ranks, carrying gun. He left at once.
He spent some time at military
school in France similar to West Point
Academy before joining his regiment.
His brother FIR. Perigord in Hamel
has received only two or three post
cards from him, conveying but little
news. For while he was assigned as
spiritual counselor to a group of Ger.
man Catholic prisoners, and did like
duty among his comrades, but he is
carrying gun and is on the firing line
now.

Who Attacks Church

The following characterization of
the class of people who attack the
Catholic Church, from the pen of the
distinguished French writer Bruno.
there, is worthy of special considera-
ton:
who, then, are they who reproach
religion with being too wearisome?
Those who do not practice it.
Who are they who reproach the
Church for exacting faith in her re-
vealed doctrines? Those who believe
in the worst fooleries and in the most
absurd superstitions.
Who are they who reproach the
Church for not recognizing the dignity
Of man? Those who claim the mon.
key for their father, chance for their
master, pleasure for their law, annihi.
lation for their end.
who are they who upbraid the
Church with being a religion of
money? Those who despoil her of
her goods with the utmost cynicism.
who are they who accuse the
Church of being intolerant? Those
who cannot allow any one to hold an
opinion differing from their own.
who are they who charge the
Church with being an enemy to light /?
Those who, despising liberty, have
Catholic schools and driven out the
nuns and the religious teachers.
who are they who reproach the
Church with being the enemy of the
people? Those who, ignorant of his
tory. are Prosecuting the charitable in.
stitutions established by religion
hospitals, creches, workshops, etc.
who are they who indulge with the
utmost audacity in violent Trades
against the Church and her teachings?
Those who know nothing whatever of
religion or of what its precepts re.
quire.
1--WE are not afraid, then, either of
the number or of the fury of those
who attack us, and dare rather to con-
graduate ourselves. They know what
they are doing, and that we are what
the world calls "a force Their anger
is aroused by the knowledge that they
are able neither to slight nor to de.
spise, nor, above all, to ignore us.
I'VE overawe them by our number,
our doctrines, our ideals, the progress
we are continually making, the fear
they have that we shall achieve even
greater things by our confidence and
our hopes. Out of reach as we are OF
their anger, it is their Indifference that
we have to dread"

No-there was another man who
should have been in that procession
and who was not there-Jim Lloyd.
He was in Jail. And there was am
other whom Sargent missed, a girl.
He would have known her by sight,
for he had often seen her. She had
charge of one of the big rooms of the
Irvine mills down at the lower end of
the works. She had worked there
since her childhood. Gaylor-that was
her name, he remembered. Harry
Lloyd had spoken to her just a few
minutes before dying. Sargent found
himself wondering what the young
fellow had said. He shook himself,
left the window, and sat down discon-
tentedly at his desk.
What world of mawkish senti-
ment," he grumbled, "is wasted on
last words and relics and things. The
fellow just said some fool thing and
stepped of into the dark. And she'll
frame those words in her heart.
Fifty years from now she'll still be
taking them down and busting them
and weeping over them.

Dean Driscoll during the months
while his people had been engaged in
a life-and-death struggle in their strike
against the Milton Machinery Com
pany and John Sargent, had often seen
cause for deep worry in the spread
among them Of the talk and reading
of Socialism. It was not that he
feared the direct effect of the argu-
ments Of Socialism upon or against
the Catholic faith of his people. Ger
tainly he did not believe that Social.
ism as a doctrine, religious or unre-
ligious, would ever greatly interfere
with the faith of what he called his
own Irish. He had lived long time,
and had some very we'll established
convictions. One of these was that an
1rishman, of however many genera
lions removed from Ireland, if he ever
loses his Catholic faith (Father Dris-
coll had his private doubts of this
ever happening), he loses it, not be-
cause he has found something that
suits him better-he simply loses it,
without ever expecting anything to
take it's place.

GAVE HER DRINKING
HUSBAND ANOTHER CHANCE
How Wife Who Was About to Seek Divorce Was

She had left her home and was on her
way down town to seek divorce. Her
ground for a legal divorce was not I'M
