equipment and efficiency of the Con-

She was a devoted and successful

standpoint. She did all in her power
to inspire the Sisters of the Com

the schools under their charge by pro-

PATRIOTIC SERVICES Of K. OF c
FORMER CHIEF JUSTICE or
NORTH DAKOTA PRAISES ATTI-
TUDE OF KNIGHTS OF coLUM-
BUS TOWARDS SOCIALISM.

In the course of an address before
the John F. Reynolds Post, Grand
Army of the Republic, on Memorial
Day, May 81, Judge B. F. Spalding, a
non-Catholic, and former Chief JUS
tice of the State of North Dakota,
made the following allusion to the
patriotic services of the Knights of
Columbus who are combating social
istic doctrines
81 believe the Catholic Church and
knights of Columbus are rendering
most patriotic service to our country
and it's institutions in combating by
lectures and otherwise socialistic doc
trines and philosophy. Some Prot
estant denominations seem disposed
to follow the lines of least resistance,
and not to have sufficient insight of
the tendencies of such doctrines to
enable them to recognize their con-
flict with principles of justice, real hui
manity and freedom. Political phil
osophers and patriots, the vast armies
which sacrificed their lives or fought
to establish and maintain this repub-
lie, were not all in the wrong as to
what the nation ought to stand for
Neither can l persuade myself that
doctrines so inimical to the highest
progress of civilization and mankind
will be adopted by thinking patriotic
i people"

Pr EssION OF FAITH
BELGIAN OFFICIALS RECEIVE
HOLY COMMUNION AT A MASS
IN HAVRE, FRANCE.

A notable scene was witnessed in
the Church of st. Adresse, at Havre.
France. on a recent Sunday, when the
Belgian colony, with the members of
the government at its head, came to
pray for king and country. Soldiers,
functionaries and employees were all
present, and around the altar were
draped the flags of Belgium and of
France. At the moment of communion
the members of the government rose
as one man and approached the altar
rails together. 1t was an affecting
scene, the official representatives of a
martyr nation kneeling to receive
their God. Amongst these men of
prayer and patriotism was Mr.. Rankin,
who had just lost another son on the
battlefield, and out of numerous
family now has only two sons left. A
splendid discourse was preached by a
Belgian priest, the Able Du Bois.
Perhaps no other country in the world
could show such an example
