book of the land records, in the town clerks office, begs leave to report:
 ''This work was commenced Au- gust 19, 1912, by engaging two clerks to write the cards, and on November 23 a, third clerk was engaged for the same work, which condition remained until May 2, 1914, when one of the clerks was retired, for the reason that a third clerk was not necessary as the inspector was so far behind, that two writers of cards only was need ed, which two clerks are still on this work.
 On October 12, 1912, an inspector Of the card writing was engaged, whose duty it was to see that the cards written by the clerk were correct and correctly locate the properties men, toned In deeds, etc. This work has been continued to the present time.
 There has been 18U,446 cards writ ten, of which 154.664 have been in spected, leaving 25,7S3 yet to be in spected, already written.
 "It is proposed to end the writing and preparing of the cards for the printer with Vol. 99 Warranty Book, Vol 100 Quit Claim, Vol. 101 Mort gage and Vol. 102 Manuscript Book. In order to complete taese books about 5000 cards will have to be written, which I figure will take until about the 1st of April. 1915, at the present rate of writing, and to finish the Inspecting will take about twenty weeks after that.
 The work of preparing the cards for the printer being so nearly com pleted I would respectfully recom- mend that the matter be taken up by the committee on supplies and print ing to secure bids for the asserting of the cards and printing the general index books, look into the matter of cost of same, obtain an estimate of said asserting and printing the same and submit same to the board of finance and taxation to be included in the estimates of expenses for the com ing year under the incidental ac- count.
 There has been expended for the preparing of cards, writing and in specting the same up to the present time the sum of s5.13s.73."
 The recommendation was adopted.

OFFICIAL TEXT OF CERMANY'S NOTE
Proposing Food Cagses to Be Dis
 tributed Under American Officials.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-The official text of Germany's note, presented DV Count von Bernstorff to the United States proposing that food cargoes be distributed under supervision of American consular officers and urging the Washington government to con- tend for the right to ship foodstufts for non-combatants, was made public here yesterday by the state depart ment, It follows:
 1-The federal councils decision concerning the seizure of food prod ucts whic hEngland alleges to be the cause of food products shipped to Ger many being treated as contraband is exclusively on wheat, rye, both un- mixed and unmixed with other prod ucts and also wheat, rye, oats and barley flour'
 2-The federal council makes an express exception in section 45 of the order. Section 45 provides as follows: ''The stipulations of this regulation do not apply to grain or flour imported from abroad after January 31.'
 3-Conjunctively with that saving clause, the federal councils order con- tains a provision under which import cd cereals and flour could be sold ex- clusively to the municipalities or cer- tain specially designated organizations by the importers. Although that pro- vision had for it's object simply to throw imported grain and flour into such channels as supply the private consumption of civilians, and, in con- sequence of that prQyision the intent and purpose of tn essf fed eTal councils order who was to protect the civilian population from speculators and en- grossers were fully met, it was never theless rescinded so as to leave no room for doubt.
 4-My government is amenable to and proposition lookingtto control by a special American organization un- der the supervision of the American consular officers and, if necessary, will itself make proposition in that di- rection.
 Self Administration Bodies.
 5--The German government further calls attention to the fact that muni- cipaIities do not form part of or be- long to the government, but are self administrative bodies' which arc elected by the inhabitants of the com mune in accordance with fixed rules and, therefore, exclusively represent the proviate part Of the population and act as it directs. Although these principles are generally known and obtain in the United States as well as in England itself the German gov ernment desired to point out the fact so as to avoid any further unnes- sary delay.
 G-Hence it is absolutely assured that imported food products will be consumed by the civilian population in Germany exclusively and there re- mains no doubt upon which England can prevent the exportation of food products from America to Germany for the use of civilians
 7-The imperial government ox presses the firm hope that the Ameri can government will stand on it's ri yht in this matter.

THE CHARM OF THE CHURCH.

This is why the man of magma
ton; nay the philosopher, too, Will
also have a weakness for the Catholic
Church; because of the rich treasures
of human life which have been stored
within her pale. Who has seen the
poor in other churches as they are
seen in the Catholic churches? Ca
tholicism, besides, envelopes human
life; and Catholics in general feel
themselves to have drawn not only
their religion from the Church; they
feel themselves to have drawn from
her, too, their art, poetry and culture.
If there is thing specially alien
to religion it is divisions. If there
is thing specially native to religion,
it is peace and union. Hence original
attraction towards unity in Rome, and
hence the great charm and power for
mans mind of that unity when once
attained l persist in thinking that
Catholicism has, from this superior
ity, a great future before it; that it
will endure while all the Protestant
sects dissolve and perish.

THE yENERATloN OF IMAGES.

at was one of the great Popes who
said that pictures were textbook for
those who could not read. Even in
these days of abundance both of read
ing and ability to read the saying is
true. Pictures are a textbook for
those, too, who can read, but who will
ingly accept a picture that saves them
the trouble and imparts what no read
ing gains. The painting of scriptural
scenes on the walls of churches had
a quite prosaic purpose. 1t gave in
formation of the contents of the Bible.
Incidentally, it produced and perpetu-
ated great works of art. The images
and symbolism of the Roman Church
were ruthlessly destroyed because the
Puritan thought them degrading SUI
perstition and idolatry. They are
now seen at a higher value, and appre-
ciated as good pedagogy and valid
channel of true religion. If sometimes
the art is crude and the ornament
tawdry, the psychology of the matter
holds. Will the time come when wor-
ship in churches of every name will
appropriate every fine aid to magma
ton and employ pictorial expression
to suggest interest in the Bible clas-
sizes and contain memorials of the
saints of each generation worthy OF
emulation by the next?"

STAMPS! STAMPS! STAMPS!

Give us cancelled stamps enough
and we promise you to make enough
on them to support half the priests
and Sisters in Africa. In saying this
we are not making any wild calcula-
tions either, but are simply giving a
moderate estimate of what can be
done, taking as our basis actual &C
compIishments in the same line in
Europe where a single Protestant Or
ganization clears 100000 annually on
the sale of cancelled stamps and where
the Sodality of st. Peter ClaVer and
other Catholic missionary societies
derive no small part of their income
from the very same source. 1t is a
matter, though, that requires general
cooperation. But once the good work
takes hold of every family in a parish
and every parish in diocese, then
these little nothings become big
something. For this to come about,
however, there must be centers OF
collection established: these can be
the school for the children and one or
all among the parish sodalities for the
grown-up people. By intelligent and
pains-taking effort even the smallest
parish can accumulate three or four
hundred pounds of ordinary stamps a
year besides several thousand rare
stamps-ordinary stamps are worth
about fifteen cents a pound, rare
stamps from 75c to $40 thousand.
For the best results the following
directions ought to be observed: /.
Stamps to be cut from the envelope
or wrapper in such a way as not to
mar the edges (defaced stamps are
valueless); printed or embossed
stamps to be cut square not round.
2. All denominations of American
stamps except the 1, 2 and 5, also CEN
tenary and exposition stamps of any
kind are considered rare and sell by
the piece; hence should be kept sepa-
rate from the ordinary 1, and 5. 3.
Foreign stamps except of high denomi-
nations can be mixed with the ordi-
nary American stamps and packed in
strong bags or boxes for shipment. a.
Ordinary stamps to be shipped by
freight; rare stamps by parcel posts;
but before any stamps are sent by
/ freight the Sodality should be written
to for instructions so that things may
be done as economically as possible.

THE MIDDLE AGES.

To suppose that such an age as this
(the Middle Ages can properly be de-
scribed as dark, is only to invite at
tention to the limitations of ones
knowledge and sympathies. No age
was dark in any true sense that wit
messed the assembling Of scholars at
the feet of Alcuin and Hrabanus
Maurus; that saw the rise of the uni
versities, of guilds and of cities; that
was fired by the enthusiasm and zeal
of St. Francis and st. Dominic; that
gave birth to the story of the Cid, of
the Holy Grail, of the Nibelungen, and
the Divine Comedy of Dante; that
witnessed those triumphs of Gothic
architecture that still delight each eye
that rests upon them; or that knew
the constitution of Clarendon, the
Magma Charta, and the legal common
taries af Bracton.

a WORK FOR CATHOLIC WOMEN

The missionaries are always in need
of things-not that they receive so
much-but there are so many of them
that the Catholic Church Extension
Society never gets altogether caught
up sending things out to them There
are many ladies who, jealous for the
cause of the missions, give their spare
time to the making of altar linens
These women are a great help to the
priests on the missions, who seldom
ever have enough linens and who often
have none at all.
It is a great work indeed that OF
providing swaddling clothes for the
Eucharistic Babe.

NOTHING IN THIS MISSION BUT
SOULS TO SAVE.

The Franciscan Missionaries of
sion world than any other religious
society of women. They have pene-
trated even to Manchuria, that I'M
known and forbidding portion of the
Chinese Empire which borders on
Siberia.
At Hardin they opened a hospital
some time ago, but had hardly done
so when the war broke out, and all
their plans went awry. Their present
situation is desperate. Seven religious
are crowded into little house, and
already one has died of privation and
hardship. Five little orphans share
the same domicile, but the nuns can
not feed or clothe them properly. The
natives bring their sick to be treated,
yet the remedies have given out and
there is not proper space for beds.
The cold in North Manchuria, where
Hardin is situated, is extreme. All the
month of March the temperature reg
istered from 35 to as degrees below
zero. In such a climate it is not pleas
ant to have the snow filterfng through
the roof or to lack food and clothing.
1t will interest Americans to know
that the nun who is in charge of this
Manchurian mission spent ten years as
Provincial in the United States. Her
name is Mother Mary Agnelle, and she
founded the houses of her institute in
New York, Boston, Providence, Fail
River and New Bedford. Doubtless
she has many friends here still who
will be interested to hear of her work
in remote Manchuria, where she says
there is absolutely nothing but souls
to save.
