Mrs. Bruce Mcv. MaekalI and
Others on Well Balanced
Program Share Honers

The secure place that Mrs. Bruce
McVean Mackall has won in the mu-
steal life of Honolulu was attested
last night when her song recital
brought out an audience that filled
the new Aeolian hall to its limit And
that Mrs. Mackall's place has been
won by deserved ability and musical
equipment was proved during the
evening in the course of, program
of wide range and thematic diyersi-
fcation. " ~ l#z=
The program, in its arrangement
and makeup, was well balanced and
displayed both good taste and the
quality of appeal to just such an aud
fence as was present last night 1t
was a program which, without at
tempt at elaborateness, contained
numbers of some emotional content
as web as others of the highest and
ARREST nature. -. -
Mrs. MackaH appeared in three
distinct groups of songs-successive-
ly in French, German and English, a
task to which both her voice end in
terpretative ability were quite equal
1t would be hard to choose any of the
three languages as her best medium,
for she is at home in each! r.. ~.
In the first group, ''L'Appel du
Printemps" carried the very joyous
zest of spring. while Immediately
afterwards the wistful "Rondel de
PAdieu,' one of de Lara's most ex-
quisite compositions, made a strong
contrast in theme and treatment,
lie Occur de ma ME- the last of
this trio, is little more than a SEN
tence, but 1t is eloquent Of meaning.
Mrs. Mackall's second group. con-
sisted of four German songs Per
haps, the best known-and for this
reason, perhaps, the hardest with
which to achieve real effects Schu-
bert's lifting "Wohin?'' p. This, as with
the next three, was splendidly rem
dered.
The third group, In English, gave
to those of Mrs Mackall's audience
unfamiliar with French and German
an idea of the unusual depth of ex-
preston and clearness of enunciation
afforded by the singer. If any choice
were to be made of the English num-
bers, it would be Salter's Last Night
/ Heard the Nightingale" and Malli-
sons exultant "A Birthday"
In more somoer vein and furnish
ing greater opportunity for dramatic
expression, was Sidney Homer's
Song of the Shirt" with its weary
refrain, Stitch, stitch, stitch" In
her entire program Mrs. Mackall's
clarity Of utterance. and the pure,
floating tone-so easily achieved that
its difficulty is hardly appreciated

bring about peace; his continual
prayer is for the cessation of
hostilities. 1t is difficult to see
how he can do more than he is
doing without causing one side or
the other to think that he is being
swayed by other considerations
than those which now influence
him.
1t is the duty of all Catholics,

the European war, to join with
the Holy Father in his prayer for

CONVERTED by WAR nuns
HERoIsM or ANTWERP NUNS
LEADS TO sEAMAN's REcEP-
TON INTO THE. CHURCH IN
PHILADELPHIA.

The Atlantic Transport steamship
Maine, which left Philadelphia for
London on Friday, April %, had
aboard fireman who formerly be-
longed to the Church of England, but
who was drawn into the true faith by
observing the heroic work of the nuns
in the city of Antwerp while that city
was under siege.
This man made the statement that
he had left the transport on which he
had worked and was strollihg through
a, portion of the city when shells be-
gan to fall thick and fast into the
street. Old men, women and children
were. running in every direction. In
the midst of these people he saw a
score of nuns fearlessly directing and
helping them to places of safety, re-
CARELESS of their own lives, which were
in peril every moment. Into his mind
came the thought that faith that
had for it's members women such as
these given up every tie that was
dear to them, in order to serve God,
must be the true faith.
1t was to the good fortune of the
sailors committee of the Society of
st. Vincent de Paul, on their visit to
the mans ship while at the port of
Philadelphia, to come in contact with
him. He related his experience and
expressed his desired to become a
Catholic. A mission was in progress
in Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church.
Because of the shortness of the mans
stay in port, the good missionary in
charge gave the man special instruc-
tions, with the result that he was bap-
tized on Wednesday, made his first
Holy Communion on Thursday and
sailed on Friday morning.

THE MAY INTENTION. =

During this month the special
intention placed before the
members of the League Of the. Sa-
cred Heart is Devotion to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary" On
this topic, the current leafet says
Devotion to the Immaculate
Heart of Mary is natural result
Of devotion to the Sacred Heart of
Jesus. AS in the case Of the latter
devotion, before the Church had
decreed anything on the devotion
to the Heart of Mary, saints prac-
ticed it. When the devotion of
the Sacred Heart of Jesus began
to spread, devotion to the Heart
of Mary grew also.
/" Among it's defenders and
.propagators in the seventeenth
century Blessed John Endes is
conspicuous. 1t was not, however,
until the end of the eighteenth
century that a special Mass was
permitted. In 1906 the CONTRA
ternity Of the Sacred Heart of
Mary in Rome was raised to the
dignity Of an archconfraternity.
The great archconfraternity estab-
lished in the Church Of Our Lady
Of Victories at Paris spread the
devotion.
"The two great motives urged
at Rome for the appreciation OF
this special devotion were the per-
lection of the Immaculate Heart
of Mary and the connection be-
tween the Mother and the Divine
Son. Both follow from the dignity
of our Blessed Lady as Mother. of
God. The Blessed Virgin, accord
ing to the teachings of Scripture,
the ancient liturgies and the Fa-
theirs Of the Church, surpasses in
purity, sanctity and perfection all
angels and men. Only the human
soul of Christ is holier than hers.
Sinless in, her conception, sinless
in her life, she was ever increas-
ing in grace and holiness. Her
inseparable union with her Divine
Son is clearly shown in the eternal
DEGREES, the prophecies and types
and figures of the Old Testament,
the mysteries of our Lord s life
and the festivals of Holy Church.
Those who love the Heart of Jesus
must also love and honor the
Heart of Mary"

then, friends in a legitimate way
is minus quantity, since they
had to resort to travesty ON a
ceremony which the ordinary
Christian invests with a certain
amount of religious solemnity and
sacredness. We presume the
guests enjoyed the performance
it was out of the ordinary, you
know. People of culture do not
have to resort to such methods of
entertaining their friends. They
have common sense enough to
know that the staging of a mock
marriage ceremony indicates that
both host and guests are woefully
deficient in their ability to appre-
ciate the kind Of entertainment
which cultured and self-respect-
ing people appreciate. Marriage
is too sacred thing to be de-
graded for the purpose of eyoking

DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE.
A PRonLEM IN INSANITY.

The latest census report on insanity
in the United States seems to show
that very puzzling shift has taken
place in the last generation. In 1880,
there were 20,635 men and 20,307
women in American asylums. The
nominal excess of males was very
slight, and in proportion to their. share
of the population somewhat larger
number of women than men became
insane in those days.
In 1910, the condition was more
than reversed. There were then 98,-
sos insane males and 80,096 insane
females in the United States-a ratio
Of Ill men to 100 women. Taking
admissions to hospitals for that year,
the figures were even more startling,
1913 men to 100 women.
The census bureau explains the ex-
cess of men in two words, whisky and
vice. The forms of insanity due to-.
alcohol and venereal disease count
more than four times as many male as
female victims, and aside from these
cases the numbers of the two sexes in.
asylums are substantially equal.
Very good-but how does it come
that the drinking and dissipating ten
dency of the male sex did not show
to it's disadvantage until after 1880?
Practically the whole campaign
against alcohol has been made since
that time, vast areas have become
dry" drinking, even moderate drink
ing, has been abolished in many oc-
cnpations; sex hygiene has been born
yet alcoholic psychoses" and gen.
eral paralysis are claiming more vic.
Tins than ever. Why?
The Journal can see three possible
explanations for this remarkable phen.
omenon.
/. That the modern excess of male
insanity is really due to the increase
of disease spread by commercialized
vice, and that it's association with al
cohol is accidental.
2. That some new and at present
unknown factor makes liquor drink
ing more dangerous now than former
ly, factor strong enough to more
than offset all the gains of temper ,
ance. -
8. That the increased strain Of
modern industrial life bears more
heavily on men than on women, SO
that masculine habits which once
wreaked little damage now cause ut
ter breakdoWns.
Each of these explanations is plaus-
ible, but this paper is unable even to
guess which one is true-if any. The
question is decidedly interesting

BEER CONDEMNED.

DIR. S. s. Lungren, leading homeo-
pathic physician and surgeon, says,
after twenty-five years practice: 1T
is difficult to find any part in the con-
firmed beer drinkers machinery that
is doing its work as it should. This
is why their life cords snap off like
glass rods when disease or accident
gives them little blow. Beer drink
ing shortens life. This is not a mere
opinion; it is a weIl-settled, recog-
nized fact. Physicians and insurance
companies accept this as unquestion-
ably as any other undisputed fact of
science. The great English physi-
clans decide that the hearts action is
increased 13 per cent in it's efforts to
throw off alcohol introduced into the
circulation. The result is easily fig
ured out. The natural pulse-beat is
rs per minute If we multiply this
by go an hour, and "a hours in day,
and add IL per cent, we find that the
heart has been compelled to do an
extra work during that time in throw
ing off the burden of few drinks
equal to 1873 tons lifted one foot high.

The eleventh annual meeting of the
Marquette League, society devoted
to Indian welfare, was held in st.
Francis Xayier's Hall, Manhattan, on
Tuesday evening, May 4.
The Marquette League has just COM
pleted collection of over one hun
dred pictures of Indian mission work
in general and of the special work of
the league. This group of stereop-
ticon views is of particular interest be-
cause it is the work of our missionary
priests. The Jesuits of the North
west, the Benedictines of the Middle
West and the Franciscans of the
Southwest all contributed toward this
picture story of the Indian missions.
Not only do these slides show the mis-
sions themselves, but they show the
wonderful, picturesque and often DESC
late country over which the mission
aries must travel hundreds of miles,
sometimes on horseback and often on
foot. Moving pictures of Indian life in
Maine and New Mexico will be an
added feature of this entertainment.
The Rev, William H. Ketcham, d.
rector of all the Indian mission work
in the United States, attended the
meeting and delivered an address. Fa-
Their Ketcham recently returned from
a tour of inspection of the missions of
Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma.
