POPE BENEDIcT's ADVICE.

In an excerpt of a letter from
the Pope, quoted elsewhere, we
note that His Holiness takes the
stand that an increase of terri
tory as the ultimate fruit of vic
tory would never mean perma-
nent peace. In fact, the ceding Of
territory simply lays up fresh
causes for future strife. In every
war of the past in which territory
has been lost to one side an effort
has been made later on to recover
the lost lands, or at least the en-
bers of hatred have not been per-
mitted to die out. If there ever
was a war based ON purely com
mercial principles the present
European cataclysm surely is
that one. Nations have come to
view their possessions as some
thing intangible, inviolable, some
thing sacred that must never be
shared with others. If the Ger
man Allies retain possession Of
Belgium, Of Alsace and Lorraine,
another struggle is almost assur-
ed for future generations. On
the other hand, should the En-
tente Allies seize portion of the
German Empire, or part of the
territory of her allies, hatred,
vengeance, and chagrin would at
once begin to lay deep the foun-
dations for future reprisals.
His Holiness has viewed the
situation from the loftiest sum-
nit, the pinnacle of humanity and
Christianity. If his advice is re
ceived in the proper spirit we
may yet behold the nations Of the
earth bowling down before the
Vicar of Christ. Bismarck once
said, in reference to Henry the
Fourth s visit to Gregory VII
eve shall never go TO Canossa. .
Stranger things have happened,
and it would not be the strangest
thing in history to see all the
Powers going in quest of peace to
Canossa.

UNDoING THE WORK OF THE
LABOR UNIONS.

The brewer, distiller and saloon
keeper pretend that they are the
workingmans friend The labor
leaders knew that they are his worst
enemy, since they thwart the chief
purposes of the labor movement.
Unionism aims at an increasingly
high standard of work by its adher-
ents. How can this be maintained II
conditions like those in certain mill
town exist? Here, when saloons were
open, steel mill with capacity for
rolling 175-200 tons Of plate per night
was accustomed to lose from 20 to 40
tons because Of spoiled plate on
nights following payday. The report
says, But with the closing Of the
saloons that's all history now"
Again, according to the teaching OF
the labor leaders, the aim of the trade
union movement is to elevate the
working class. "The labor movement
is essentially moral movement" says
John B. Lennon. 1t is organized
educate the people, to drive out ignor-
ance, to elevate the toilers," says
uOuIdS IL. IGWIS. IL DtllSN6S JJdI
it should be made more easily possible
for women to become home-makers,"
says Lennon, "but who can deny that
the liquor traffic is driving women to
work in factories, in workshop and at
washtubs who ought not to be there?"
Because their husbands are drinking.
and are not taking home the money
they might, the women are at work.
THE trades union movement is OPP
posed to child labor, yet who can
deny" says Lennon, that the liquor
traffic is driving into industrial life,
boys and girls who should be in school
or on the Playground"
Nothing has done more to bring
misery upon innocent women and chill
dren than the money spent in drink"
says Mitchell. Sacred Hedr ReDteU.

DISCRIMINATING AGAINST
WOMAN"

Because Monsignor Brown of Lon
don, England, recently proposed that
women should not be served in the
public houses (saloons), he was sub
jected to criticism from some I'M
thinking individual on the ground that
he was discriminating between the
sexes, and any such exclusion of wom-
en- from the rights and privileges Of
the bar would be a wrong done to
them. Explaining his idea, Monsig-
nor Brown at meeting of the Catho-
lie League of South London, said he
thought too highly of women, and par
ticularly those who bore the burden of
maternity, to be willing that they
should be exposed to the temptations,
and to the shameful language and
scenes that were to be witnessed very
frequently in public houses. There
were scenes to be witnessed and lam
guage to be heard, certainly in many
of the public houses of London, which
he considered we're an absolute dis
grace to civilization. 1t was with a
view to protecting women against
these dangers, on account of their
high Office of being a refining and en-
nobling influence amongst men, that
he had moved the resolution which had
evoked criticism in certain quarters.
So long as women were seen passing
in and out of the public house bar he
was old-fashioned enough to believe
they could not exercise that influence
as they should exert it. If they got
upon the question of absolute equality
between the sexes they would at once
be treading upon exceedingly difficult
ground. Indeed, he would declare that
there we're many public duties which
women were physically incapacitated
from performing. There were various
forms of employment, particularly with
regard to women who were child-bear-
ing, which every one, on the face Of
it, would admit were quite unsuited
for women. There was this striking
fact to be borne in mind-that women
alone are prevented, purely on sex
grounds, from following certain occu-
pations by statute law. Such, for in
stance, to mention only one case, that
of working in the mines. In his opin-
ion, if equality of sexes would involve
the employment of women at labor Of
such character he had referred to,
or if equality between sexes was to ex-
pose women to shame and degrade
ton, then he believed there must be
inequality between the sexes.

VOCATIONS.

An, excellent article in The
Catholic Record on the subject of
vocations set us to thinking. This
mental act resulted in the query,
Why do not parents help to fos-
ter the vocations of their chill
dren towards the Church. The
priest, the confessor, the nuns en-
deavor to guide a boy who shows
a special love for the sanctuary,
or a girl whose affections appear
centered in the life of the con-
vent. In the meantime, what are
the parents doing about it. Very
often they discourage it. Their
motives may be wise, to allow the
child to think for himself and
to decide only after mature de-
liberation. Again. frequently
these motives are. selfish. The
parents cherish ambitions for
their children. They wish to see
them enter business or the pro
fessions, and bring luster on the
family name. The girl must
marry and be a credit to society,
and incidentally shed honor on
the family, and perhaps, raise her
family step higher on the social
ladder.
All this may be laudable in it
self and based on the best of mo-
tives. But what if the child pre-
fers a life dedicated to God In the
Church or the convent. Toe
often, alas! the parents begin to
place obstacles in the way of that
favored. child. Is this the graft
tude for all the parental care and
solieitude, Is it proper to bury

no night in Magh-inis Gas Lecale was
then Called, no light save angelic
light; and some say there was con-
tinual light for the space of a year
after the white oxen had borne Saint
Padraig's body to the hill of Down.
A walk of a few minutes north
wards from Raholp brings one to the
shores of Tough Guam, where at the
foot of the heights of Rin-bane the
tide of old flowed up the Slaine River
at the end of the Brene for many a
yard, meeting the gentle stream flow
ing down from Loughmoney. This
was the creek that Saint Padraig
sailed up on his return to Erin after
his visit to Saint Martin in France,
leaving his coracle in the sheltered
meadows close to the shore, almost
within sight of the residence of Dishu
at Saul Padraig said: THE bless
ing of God ON Dichu, who gave me the
Sabhaill; may he be hereafter heaven
ly, joyous, glorious. !" Here the Saint
of his old occupation on Sieve Mish,
in Antrim, when a boy, as well as
foretelling his future work when he
would shepherd the Irish people as
his future flock
Old Saul, at present, is treated
it's ancient story. There are other
holy waters, the Mearan we'll and
Tober ma Suil not far away. The
venerable church sites of Ballychonan
and Ballintogher, or Ballibren, are
near at hand. 1t was at Ballychonan
(church walls) that tradition tells of
st. Columbkill when he said Mass
and preached at Croshinonan that his
voice was heard mile around. Here
was raised a cross to st. Albanian,
the friend, biographer, and successor
of st. COLUMBIA, the apostle given by
in Gaels of Ireland to Christianize
the Gaels of Scotland, the Saxons of
England, and the peoples of half
Western Europe.
Many evidences still attest the
older civilization before the days of
Padraig and Tassach the great

from the Heroic age, the Cromleac on

DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE.
TEEToTALIsM lN KANSAS.


In Kansas the prohibition law is
enforced" says Julian Street in Col
lier's Weekly. Blind pigs hardly ex-
ist, and bootleggers are rare birds,
who, if they persist in bootlegging,
are rapidly converted into jailbirds.
The New York Tribune printed re-
Gently letter stating that prohibition
is signal failure in Kansas, that
there is more drinking there than ever
before, and that under the seats of all
the automobiles in Kansas there is
good-sized canteen.' Whether there
is more drinking in Kansas than ever
before, l can not say. do know,
however, both from personal obser-
walton and from reliable testimony,
that there is practically no drinking
in the portions of the state visited.
AS am not prohibitionist, this state
ment is non-partisan. But | may add
that, after having seen the results of
prohibition in Kansas, / look upon it
with more favor. Indeed, | am par
tial convert; that is, ! believe in it
for you. And whatever are your views
on prohibition, think you will admit
that it is pretty temperate state in
which a girl can grow to womanhood
and say what the Kansas girl said to
me, that she never saw a drunken
man until she moved away from Kan
sas."
