which the bishop is a commissioner,
is one of his chief interests and ac-
tivities. Occupying thousand acres
on the Pike Lake road, it accommo-
dates at present fifty-six men. Eighty
acres have been cleared already, the
real work of the farm having begun
as late as January 8. A new develop
ment of the farm is the accepting of
land-clearing contracts throughout
the county, which will assist in maxi
ing it self-supporting The. work farm
has it's own garden, its COWS and
dairy, it's small fruit; it has zoo, 900
feet of lumber and at present is maxi
ing flooring and ship-lathe; and the
athletic department, with its recrea-
tional work, helps to build up in the
men a new spirit of hope and cour-
age, as we'll as the tendency to play
fair for the future. The bishop may
well be proud of it.
The Christian Brothers school, the
Cathedral schools, Villa Scholastica,
The Bishops club, now in it's nine
teenth year, the public library, the
park system in the days before there
was park commission, these and
many other things have filled the
bishops life since his arrival in Du-
luth rs years ago. ooh, we manage
to keep busy" he says, with con-
tented smile.
Planning Art Exhibit.
II am so proud of the women's
clubs here" he said the other day.
"Such splendid organizations as the
Woman's council and the Twentieth
Century club do wonderful work.
They have a good effect on the entire
community, even when they do not
attempt to make converts for them
selves in regard to any special ideas.
They are an influence for good"
The bishop is planning to have an
art exhibit later in the fall, after the
schools open. so that the children
may have the benefit OF seeing some
of the worlds masterpieces. Il am
sure T. B. Walker of Minneapolis
will be glad to send more of his treas
ures in addition to those already at
the Kitchi Gammi club" he said,
"and then l shall try to get pictures
from some of the New York and Chi
cago collection. Perhaps we can
manage it by October" Even his ac-
complishments, such as knowledge
and love of art, he turns to the SER
vice of others.
Service, that is the watchword of
James McGorlick's life. Truly, here
is a man who does not weary in we'll
doing.

bishop has been doing something for
them just as he did everything else;
whenever he could find an opportu-
nifty.
In going through classroom, he
saw little boy writing with his left
hand.

boy" said the bishop.
The boy lifted up his right hand,
which was turned under at the wrist,
quite useless.
THAT can be cured" said the
bishop.
After a consultation with the
mother. the youngster was sent to
st. Paul for an operation, and his
hand is now normal.
Some school children were play

group. disconsolate. She could not
run and play with them because one
of her feet had been twisted from
birth. The bishop went up to her

BISHOP McGOLRICK SPEAKS
OF WEALTH IN PEAT BEDS


Rt. Rev. James McGolrick, bishop
of Duluth, speaking at a banquet
given by the Peat Society in Duluth
urged the convention delegates to
take steps to develop the peat re-
sources of Minnesota.
The bishop said, in part:
There are great possibilities in
the development of this great re-
source for the people at large" he
said, land, with the awakening of
these possibilities that will follow
this convention, believe the devel-
opment will be quick in coming. With
the great increase in the cultivated
area in this state that would be
brought about by the adaptation of
the peat lands, the production of food
should be greatly increased with a
corresponding reduction in food
prices.
Again, with the development of
the fuel industry that is possible in
our peat lands the means of heat
ing homes in winter should be
brought within the reach of many
who now have difficulty in buying
coal. 1 believe there is great re-
lief for the poor in the developments
that seem just ahead of US"

COMPLIMENT JUDGE BUM.

The State Bar association at its an
nual meeting in St. Paul yesterday
gave expression to it's enthusiastic
gratitude, approval and appreciation
of the work being done by our su-
preme court, as at present consti-
tuted on the occasion of it's being ad-
dressed by Justice George L. Bum,
one of the members Of the court.
Justice Bum was assigned the sub
ject, Appellate Procedure" and by
his intimate handling of his topic
gave the members an insight into the
actual workings of the highest court;
their laborious tasks, and the reforms
tending to the simplifications of prac-
tice and the termination of delays.
Among other things Justice Bum
said:
"'The attitude of the court should
be and is that of the patient lis
tener.
"The supreme court of Minnesota
has adopted the policy of prompt de-
cisions of the cases submitted to it.
Consultation takes place Immediately
after the days arguments, and the
decision is reached and the opinion
written while the case is fresh. There
are constant consultations, formal
and informal, until the conclusion is
arrived at. The judge who writes the
opinion writes it before the case gets
cold and his associates review and
correct his opinion before they have
forgotten the arguments.
"The absence of long delays does
not mean snap judgment or ill-con'
sidered decisions. 1t does mean
working at white heat while the facts
are fresh and before the case is driv-
en- from the minds of the justices by
other work and the lapse Of time"
At the conclusion of his paper JUS
tice Bum was given a vote Of thanks
and likewise a vote Of confidence by
the association.
The meeting has been the most
generally attended and best in the
history Of the association.

POPE'S DAILY LABOR.

The division OF Pope Plus labor
ious day was ss follows: After his
'mcagrc first brcakiast-which he
almost invariably took alone al
though now and then as u special
favor, he had one or two friends near
him while he partook OF his simple
relmst--he went to work as systcma-
t,cally as the most energetic man OF
business. A, $50 he received the
Cardinal Secretary Of State, then the
Cardinals who are projects OF con-
srcgations, the Secretary OF Latin
Letters, the Secretary Of the Briefs,
and the Princes; finally such persons
as are admitted to the honor OF a
special interview.
On Mondays, and sometimes on
Thursdays, he gave public receptions,
a ceremonial which is familiar to thou
sands OF American and English trav-
cl,rs.
Plus \. sometimes invited visitors
who pleased him into his private
rooms, Il proceeding which doubtless
would have scandalizcd the other
Popcs. If delegation OF workmcn
came to lay an address at his feet he
showed them all about, taking them
even into his bedroom, chatting on
secular and religious matters with the
greatest freedom, and frequently max
ing many converts and friends for
,lic among the lower classes in this
way.
AT ESQ the Pope dincd alone and
lrugally, after which, he rccitcd the di-
vine office. read for short time in
a religious book, and then back to his
duties. AT S o'clock he received the
Bishops. who always came to bring
him the news. and to tell him of
troubles which crop up in their do
ctscs; and the secretaries of the va
rious congregations had an endless
succession of reports to make. AT this
hour OF the day the Pope represented
a more widespread constituency than
any other ruler in the world. There
are Catholics everywhere, aud the
agents Of the Church are daily send
ing to the headquarters at Rome re-
ports Of manners and customs, of
agriculture, industry, commerce, arts,
science, letters, politics and religions.

GOOD TASTE IN CONsERvA-
TIVE MOURNING MODELS
White Mourning Late Innovation
for Young People-Cire Satin
and Corded Silk.

In mourning, simplicity is the key
note of good taste. The wardrobe
should be chosen for conservative
good style and inconspicuousness.
A mourning top-coat of heavy black
cloth with soft dull finish made
into one of the smart loose cape coats
SO much the rage, is most desirable.
The Oxford effects may be used for
general wear. For suits, gabardine
or serge with a dull finish is service
able and smart. Pure white or dull
black Innings should be used. {.
Soft faille silk with a dull luster
is used for the more dressy type of
suit. Ripple silk, which is heavy
variety of Canton silk may be used,
also. for this type of costumes.

For an afternoon dress crepe de
Chine is most attractive and distinc-
tive. One charming feature of this
silk is that it may be self-trimmed,
and, if anything. this enhances it's
beauty. All costumes worn for first
mourning may be combined with
crepe. But crepe should be used
sparingly, as too much is in poor
taste.
From among a number of mourn
ing dresses l picked out models for
my illustrations which are conserva-
tive and stylish, both showing the
attractive use of crepe and dull silk
as trimming.
The first is of dull cire satin. At
the lower edge of the long tunic is
wide band of corded silk on the
bias. This same silk is used to edge
the V-shaped opening OF the over
waist, front and back. A long-sleeved
guimpe of net is worn with this dress
whose most noticeable feature is it's
stiffly standing frill of lace at the
neck. The plain hot is of cire satin
with trimming of the corded silk
and of gathered maline.
Wolfe and net are two materials
widely used for Summer and Fall
dresses and for mourning, when va
riety is limited, it is very smart. My
second illustration shows dress OF
black wolfe. The skirt with triple
circular ruffles has band of crepe
made with kimonO-cut sleeves having
a circular cuff which is also trimmed
with a band of crepe as is the front
of the wolfe waist. The chemisette
and collar are of black net over white
and hemstitched. A wide girdle OF
crepe with buttons down the front
completes the costume.
A charming dress of net is made
with waist in bolero effect. Around
the edges of this bolero, which ex.
tends to the shoulder and underarm
seams only, is a ball fringe of dull
black wooden beads. In the corners
of the bolero are beaded motifs in
very fine dull black beads.
Chiffon cloth is widely used for
mourning waists and lends itself
charmingly to the simple trimming
of hand-run tucks and simple shir-
rings. Black point-d esprit is COM
bined with net in many ways and
makes greater variety possible.
Dull satin with the waxed finish
is used for waists as we'll as crepe
de Chine and crepe chiffon. A waist
Of black crepe de Chine is made with
a chemisette Of net picot edged and
trimmed with picot edged frills of
the crepe de Chine.
Georgette crepe in black or white
is used both for waists and for the
soft clinging type Of gown. 1t is
charming trimmed with either faille.

The day was perfect. Tall, old
fashioned garden flowers in stately
rows were on either side the walk
leading to the bishops residence.
The pillared veranda had a southern
spaciousness and suggestion of hos
pitality. The bishop had decided to
keep to the minute, his engagement
made before the unhappy news Of
the passing away of Pope Plus X had
reached the city.
I'VE mourn" he said, "but the
work must go on, order must be OBJ
served" And in that way the bishop
manages to meet his countless obli-
cations, in that way he manages to
keep untangled the myriad lines of
business that lie before him. Rigid
system for his hands and head, that
his heart may not be hampered in it's
labors of love, such is the stern duty
demanded of himself by Rt. Rev.
James McGolrick.

interested in the few things an old
man is trying to do"
Everyone does know about you,
bishop" had been the answer, land
everyone wants to know more.
Everyone is very much interested in
what you are doing"
And perhaps because the words
were sincere the entreaty was heard
and the bishop now sat in the parlor
of his residence and spoke of the
matters that lay near his heart.
Back to the Land.'
His system is constructive. One of
his favorite campaigns is that of
colonization. the "back to the land
idea. Many families has the bishop
induced to leave the crowded cities
and begin a new life>on the farm.
"a bit of Gods green earth, that's
what they want" said the bishop.
1--WE find the thrifty people who have
laid by little money, and we show
them the spot where their money will
have twice its value. Younger sons
from the south come up to the north.
People from the east come to the
west. There are families from Hol-
land and Belgium, even, those who
are used to the soil and do not fear
it's loneliness"

we'll attended, not only by the young
sters, but by their parents as we'll,
some of whom prefer this to any
other service. Bishop McGolrick
holds the children in his heart.
1T was not long after my arrival
in this vicinity" said the bishop,
that I saw the necessity of an Or
phanage. In the mining towns here
about, when mother died, several
small children, perhaps, were left to
the care of a father who, being en-
gagged at the mines. could not look
after them properly. The orphanage
as we'll as many other organizations,
has been in large measure taken care
of by charitable persons. In all cases
the city does what it can, but there
seems to be no limit to the kind
heartedness and charitable instincts
of Duluthians. I think may safely
say that there is no necessity for any
suffering from poverty in Duluth
such is the nobility and generosity of
private individuals"
A Helper, Not Judge.
The bishop seems to have no harsh
judgments. He seldom mentions the
sins of men. 1t is their misfortunes
which interest him, and the problem
at once suggests the search for a
remedy. When his mouth is firm,
his eyes smile, and when his eyes are
sad, his mouth has a pleasant curve.
He is never hopeless. While the
bishop may deplore many things. he
does not apparently condemn.
