1--WE SHOULD WoRRY!"

Cardinal Gibbons. speaking of the
Wane of bigotry, says: 1--WE are going
to keep our good humor. because we
know that hundreds of thousands of
our non-Catholic neighbors are our
good friends and are thoroughly
ashamed of this miserable attempt to
weaken all the best forces of order
and law. But you are not going to in
tim1date us for one moment.
If you think our people are asking
for anything undue, argue with us.
reason with us, but if you abuse us
and lie about us and attempt to brow
beat us-well, you are wasting time
and energy, and when you attempt to
put all this vulgar, unjust and bitter
bigotry and misrepresentation on the
basis of religion, why all we can say
Is you do not even know yet what re.
ligion means"

THE VIRTUE OF SIMPLICITY

Simplicity is a virtue which. sad to
say, few possess. When l say that
1 mean absolute simplicity. Let us see
in what true simplicity consists. Is it
not in the thinking, saying and doing
OF everything for the one reason, BE
cause I believe it is right?" Not be.
cause we see someone else do some
thing, not because that that some.
thing would produce a good effect, not
because it would bring us any gain.
should it be done, but because we be-
lieve it is right.
What satisfaction is derived from
that sort of motive? To know that
everything you do, everything you say.
everything you think, are all forms of
truth itself. What harmony exists be.
tween men whom simplicity is the
path of their intercourse, simplicity
that makes virtues of eccentricities.
that builds character, that commands
respect.

would speak on his side and give its
imprimatur to his cause. Because the
Holy See refuses to be the catspaw of
any nation, and acts in ways which
are not visible to the readers of half
penny newspapers, they accuse the
Pope of Partially. Heretics say that
the spiritual power" of the papacy
has failed, Liberal" Catholics criticise
the inactivity of the Holy See, as they
call it, and non-Catholics write book
lets on 1.-The War and the Holy see,"
instructing Benedict XIV. in the way
he should go. Cardinal Bourne denied
that the Holy See had been inactive.
1t had done more than any other power
on earth to mitigate the frightfulness
of this war. Moreover, no journalist
or magazine writer is competent to
say what the accredited diplomatists
of the Sovereign Pontiff have accom-
plished at the courts of the belliger-
ents. Later, when the negotiations of
the past months are known, it will be
found that the action of the Holy See
in favor of justice and humanity has
not only been constant and unremit.
ting, but has had very far.reaching
effects. AS pendant to the Cardinals
words 1t may be mentioned that the
German and British governments have
just come to an agreement to respect
hospitals, museums, churches and
other buildings marked with black
cross on white square. These nego~
tiations have been carried through by
the good Offices of the Vatican.
Thus, it will be seen that the power
of the Holy See has brought from Eng
land an involuntary although keen &C.
acknowledgement of the supremacy of the
Catholic Church, and that the Vatican
is above all, and beyond all, the strong.
est neutral power for the welfare of
humanity, though trial and tribulation
have marked the course of the efforts
of the Holy Father.

that their children may attain the
highest education in Catholic high
schools and Catholic colleges and may
I'LL the ranks of every honorable pro-
fession.
(6)-But as, for the larger number
OF our people, this higher education is
unhappily not possible, the Associa-
ton deprecates in the lower schools,
the overlooking of the curriculum, the
multiplication of subjects, the intro
duction Of new and untried methods
and means to the exclusion of the solid
essentials of education. Some nee.
essary facts of the world and of life
and, above all, an accurate knowledge
of the elements of our language for
speech and writing, should be impart-
ed to our pupils by energetic drill.
True democracy in education requires
that the whole people be possessed of
what is necessary before a privileged
few be given what is helpful.
W-The Association gladly well
comes and wishes to see multiplied
all agencies for education of what.
ever kind which will keep our young
away from dangerous associations and
under Catholic auspices. The burden
put upon our generous. teachers will
be willingly borne because of the bene.
fits to our faith from night schools,
vacation schools and other sources
for the Catholic instruction of our
youths.
(S)-The Association recommends
that every Catholic, especially our ed
ucational authorities, scrutinize care
fully and limit strictly all attempts of
legislation which would interfere with
our educational liberties as citizens
and would introduce class legislation
under the guise of social welfare.
(9)-The Association returns thanks
to our Holy Father for his blessing
bestowed each year on this meeting
of the Catholic educators of the
United States, to His Excellency, the
Apostolic Delegate, for his very kind
letter of sympathy and encouragement.
QO)-The Association is very crate
full to His Grace, the Most Rev. John
Ireland, Archbishop of st. Paul, for
his cordial reception to our delegates,
his eloquent and inspiring address, and
his sympathetic interest in our pro.
ceedings.
OLIVE wish to express our thanks
also to the distinguished prelates, to
the reverend clergy, the local COM
mittees of the diocese and to all men,
bers of the committees for their serv-
ices rendered to the convention.
(12)-We tender our thanks to the
Catholic press of the country for call.
ing the attention of the public to our
meeting and for the generous space
accorded our proceedings in their col.
umns.
(13)-The Association desires to ex.
press the deepest sorrow for the loss
sustained by the death of it's distin-
guished and devoted member, Rev.
Timothy BrOsnahan. ST..

Business men in some sections of
the country are taking issue at the
postOffice department on the rule fore
ing the Sunday closing of the post
Office department. No doubt, business
has suffered to some extent because
of the rule which the department has
adopted favoring the Sunday closing
of the postoftice. This, however, is
only temporary, because business can
and will adjust itself to the circum-
stances. The observance of Sunday
was fast giving way to the material
consideration of business and the de.
livery of mail on Sunday increased the
Indifference which business interests
in many cases have manifested. The
religious and moral Importance of the
rule in the eye of the department out
weighed every other consideration.
Business is necessary and there are
certain business necessities. Wheth-
er or not the postofflce department
has been prompted by religious mo-
tives need not be argued. The en-
forcement of the rule has impressed
upon the public minds that the Lords
day is day of rest and that there is
q certain amount of labor that can be
Justly dispensed with on Sunday.

AGATE AND ONYX.

The distinction between agate and
onyx is not apparent to everyone, as
is indicated by the samples of the
two minerals received by the United
States Geological Survey with requests
for information. Onyx marble. or
Mexican Onyx, is composed of cal
c1um carbonate or banded limestone.
True agate is variety of silica.
Onyx marble is much softer than agate
and is rarely used for gems, but when
onyx is obtained in pieces of suficien:
size 1t is cut and polished for small
ornamental objects like inkstands and
paper weights, as well as for table
tops and soda-water fountains.

A few days ago the patriotic" (?)
order known as the American Order of
Historians opened it's campaign in Bos.
ton for the election of its candidate to
the governorship of Massachusetts,
and the chief speaker at the meeting
was the unsavory and notorious anti
Catholic, Joe Slattery, who announced:
David I. Walsh will never again be
governor of Massachusetts. We did
not get going in time to kill him at
the last election, but we will kill him
and bury him next November. We
must put Mccall (the Republican can
didate) in the same place, too. Kill
him and bury him SO deep that he
will never lift up his head again.
There is one man whom we NAV
trust, one man who is really American,
one man for whom we can vote with
clean conscience. That man is Graf.
ton D. Cushing" The outcome of
the election will be watched with in

ENGLAND AND THE PAPAcY.

ENGLAND AND The PAPACY.
The English critics of the Holy See
are extremely busy throughout Eng
land. The position held by Protestant
Englishmen in attempting to court the
favor of the papacy for the British
Government has come to naught, real
izing that an understanding world
knows the hypocracy of Englands at
tttude toward the Holy See. Eng
lands attitude toward the papacy is
well illustrated in the sentiment ex-
pressed in the lines, when the devil
ssass sick, the devil a monk would be,
INT when the devil got we'll, the devil
monk was he" In recent sermon
ached by Cardinal Bourne, the Car
i1Al replied to the critics of the Holy
hsr and the Catholic Church and
m with steady and relentless
the marrow position held by the
Protestant Englishman, and
inyo luntary acknowledgment of
jGemacy Of Peter. The Cardinal
hesitate to say that the Eng
~ looked with contempt on
md her head and had been
the power Of Rome cur.

ehman would give all

The Holy Father has set at rest
the widely circulated stories and falsi-
fications concerning Cardinal MERCER,
of Belgium. The entire affair was q
fabrication from beginning to end. It
was told for the purpose of arousing
Catholic antagonism against the Ger
mans. Now that the truth is known,
Cardinal MERCER enjoyed more liber-
ties and privileges than has been
known in any country or at any time
when a state of war existed The
story is in the same class with the
story published in recent New York
paper which stated that the Envoy
from the White House was really a
deceiver and none other than a rep.
resentative of German militarism who
had been spying in this country. Much
current history will need revising
when the war is over.
