And the end is not yet. Other
counties are preparing for the con-
test this fall and before the next
legislature meets nearly the whole
of the state will have banished
the legalized saloon. The results
so far are attributable to two
causes, namely, the activity of the
right thinking citizens of the state
and the indecent way in which the
saloon-fed traffic has violated the
laws Of God and man in it's eff
forts to promote its selfish aims.

FIRMS DENY BIGOTED
ATTITUDE.

When the chairman of the
Knights Of Columbus "Commis-
sion on Religious Prejudices, the
Hon. p. I'll. Callahan of Louisville,
Ky, was informed that certain
large firms which do a nation
wide business with the public had
contributed to the funds which
keep alive the anti-Catholic propa-
ganda, he wrote to the heads OF
the firms asking whether this were
true. The firms are those Of Col
gate (toilet requisites), Welch
grape juice, Kellogg cereal
foods}, and Huyler (candies)
Replies were received from the
four denying the charge.
The. Colgate Company replied :
Eve conduct our business in an
absolutely non-political and non
@sectarian manner, employing adj
nerents of all parties and of all
faiths, among whom are many
Catholics. With us character and
efficiency are the qualifications for
employment and for retention in
office"
w. K. Kellogg mentioned
among other evidences Of his
freedom from bigotry, the fact
that the managers Of the Column
bus, Denver, Boston and Phila-
delphia districts are knights Of
Columbus.
President G. E. Welch said

immediate office, also ON our sales
force, and since the burning Of the

plemented his denial with this as
sertion: We wish to assure you
Of our friendly feeling toward the
Catholic Church and that we are
not in any way antagonistic to it.

TREATING-AN INSULT TO
MANHOOD.

The wave of prohibition has come
to our shores. From the insignificant
ripple it has been given impetus by
the prohibition of the vodka in Russia,
the absinthe in France, and the sake
in Japan, until now it is upon us as
roaring billow Prohibition in our
own states has been continuously in
creasing. In the year 1907 but four
states were totally prohibition. Now
there are Is states which have en-
acted statewide prohibition laws, and
seven more to vote upon this state
legislation within the next few
months.
Prohibition has become popular on
account of the abuses of the princi-
pies of manhood. To do away with
these shameful abuses prohibition adj
vocates are now turning their atten-
ton and efforts to eradicate all the
temptations of the immoderate drink
ers-to do away with the production
and consumption Of all alcoholics.
One of the greatest abuses of the
liquor privileges in America today is
the American treating habit so gen
eral in saloons An American habit,
and only an American habit; and so
strong has it become that it is now
proving one of the strongest argu-
ments for the prohibition advocates.
This treating is unknown in most,
if not all European countries. Ger
many has placed an absolutely severe
ban on the treating in saloons.
Treating makes, has made, and con-
tinues daily to make drunkards, spend
thrifts, reckless, INSCRIPTIONS char
acters of drinker and seller, and is
perhaps worse evil and more
baneful feature of many, very many
saloons than the diabolically uncouth
language and the SANDER which is
Matched out or dealt out in those
places. u :"
To pass laws and to enforce them
to prevent treating in saloons, to
arouse agitation showing the foolish
ness and terrible consequences of the
habit of treating in saloons, reforms
along these lines will bring about I'M
measurable good.

lence would be done to the rights
of the state in the matter of secu-
lar education.
The necessity Of religious
training for school children is adj
mitted by all, and special efforts
are being made in many places,
and notably in New York, to sup
ply this defect Of the public
school system by taking the chill
dren from the schools at certain
periods and placing them under
the care of teachers who impart
to them the religious knowledge
which their parents desire them
to possess. The time is coming
when some way will have to be
found to give a religious train
ing to the public school children
without doing violence to the con-
stitution of the country or the
conscience of the child.

LIFE INSURANCE AND TOTAL
ABSTINENCE.

The attitude of life insurance com.
panies toward total abstainers has
changed considerably since 1910. In
that year, we are told, total alb
stainer in England applied to life
insurance company for policy. The
directors made condition for grant
ing the policy that he pay 10 per
cent more than the ordinary pre-
MUM because, as they viewed his
case, he was thin and wateTy and
mentally cranked in that he repud
lated the good things Of God as
found in alcoholic drinks" On De-
cember 10, 1914, at a convention OF
presidents of American life insurance
companies, held in the city of New
York, Mr.. Arthur Hunter, chairman
of the central bureau of the medico-
acturial mortality investigation, rep
resenting 43 companies, and covering
the records of over 100000 policy
holders, reported on results of very
searching investigation, and classed
liquor dealers among the most haz-
ardous risks, and even very moder-
ate drinkers as decidedly unsafe, ex-
hibiting higher mortality than to-
tai abstainers. Samuel Wilson, who
presents in the Outlook this striking
illustration of complete about
face" on the part of the insurance
companies, says that it is due to exact
study Of facts, and is based upon
ethical, scientific, sociological and
economic investigation and expe-
rience. He says:
The attitude of life insurance to
alcohol is especially significant be-
cause there is no phase of business
that is SO scientifically accurate and
automatically demonstrable. Life
insurance might have been born In
Missouri, for its motto is, Show me"
1t turns its prospective poHcyholder
inside out and outside in. It exam
ines his heart, lungs, liver, kidneys,
stomach, bowels, nerves and brain.
1t asks impudent questions about
pedigree, history and shabits; and
when the examiners get through with
their examinee they know more
about him than does his own mother,
or his father-confessor Then they
either throw him into the discard or
classify him and make their wagers
on their estimate of him as life
risk.

We often hear it said-and it is
true-that the Church depends
upon the contributions of the poor
for her support. The widow S
mite multiplied a million times
makes an endowment. Small
amounts from many purses work
wonders for religion. The most
of us belong to the great army of
the poor and we should deem it
an honor to give of our poverty as
much as we can afford for the
welfare of religion, and give it
freely and as often as generosity
suggests.

The bigots who charge the Cath
Ollie Church with unfriendliness,
if not direct antagonism, to the
public school system, forget that
Catholics contribute one-sixth of
the money raised by taxation for
the support of the public school.
They pay it without a murmur
because they are good citizens and
feel that the state has a duty to
perform in educating its children
While doing this, they build and
maintain their own parochial
schools and other educational in
situations to attest their belief that
religious training should go hand
in hand with the acquisition OF
secular knowledge.

RELIGION IN THE PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.

During the month two 1mpOr-
tant moves were made by the
State High School Board of Min
nesota The one was the granting
of state aid amounting to $4,000
for the current year to the Man
kato High School on receiving
assurances that the Bible would
not be read or prayers recited at
any Of its sessions. The other was
the denial of state aid amounting
to $4,389 for the current year to
six school districts in Stearns
County on the sole ground that
the teachers wear the garb of a
Catholic Sisterhood.
About a year ago the State
High School Board made a rul-
ing that no financial aid would
be given Hto high schools where
the teachers wore distinctively
religious garb or where religious
exercises of any kind, such as
the reading of a portion Of the
Bible or the saying Of the Lord S
Prayer was part of the curricu-
lum. The Board looked upon
these things as introducing re
ligion into the public schools,
contrary to the Constitution of
the state. 1t is true that for
mer Attorney General of Mime
sofa gave it as his opinion that
the reading of the Bible in the
public schools was unconstitu-
tional; but there is no shadow
of a legal opinion to justify the
stand taken by the School Board
in the matter of refusing state
aid to high schools entitled to
it, simply because they are taught
by Sisters who are, it is adj
mitted, fully qualified for the
work. Efforts were made to
have the Board modify its ac-
ton on this latter point, but
without avail.
From the religious standpoint
we regret the action Of the State
High School Board in placing an
embargo upon Bible reading in
the public schools as well as on
everything suggestive of relig-
ion. 1t is to be deplored that
religion is to have no place in
the education Of the greater
number OF the youths of this
country. This is the sad conse-
quence of a ruling which, for the
time being at least. cannot be
modified. As long as the public
schools are the only ones through
which the state will offer an edu.
cation to its children, religion
must, of necessity, be excluded
There is no common religion, sc
| to speak, which will prove ac.
ceptable to the children of differ

The seed of religious truth, sown in
his heart during the receptive years
of his childhood, may yet produce
fruit Those early lessons he re-
ceived, the prayers he learned and
loved to recite, the pious practices, so
dear to him in the days of his inno-
cence, can never be entirely forgotten.
Our Blessed Savior Himself, the per-
feet Teacher Of perfect school, after
three years of Divine training, had to
lament the unfaithfulness of His
twelve chosen pupils, when the storm
of temptation assailed them. Need
we be surprised, then, if some who
receive Catholic education prove I'M
worthy of their training? But remem-
Der, all but one Of the Masters Apos-
ties repented and returned to Him and
died a holy death. This, after all, is
the aim of Catholic education; to bring
your children to God, If not by the
Saints royal road of answering fidel-
ity and virtue and few there are
that walk thereon"-at least by the
sinners beautiful gate of repentance
and pardon.
A good father, when about to die,
proves his love for his children by
leaving them all his worldly posses
sions. But. the most precious legacy
that Catholic parents can bequeath to
their children, legacy richer than all
the gold and silver and Jewels of
earth, is a Catholic education. If this
precious legacy is denied them, all
other goods that you devise to them
will likely prove to be 4 curse rather
than blessing.
