SENATOR RANSDELL OF LoUISI-
ANA DISCUSSED THE GREAT
EVIL OF DIVORCE UNDER THE
AUSPICES OF THE ALUMNI OF
LoYoLA UNIVERSITY.

The Hon. Joseph E. Ransdell, United
States Senator from Louisiana, deliv-
cred forcible lecture on the divorce
evil at Loyola University in that city
on Wednesday evening, April II. IT
was an appeal to all patriotic citizehs
to take up the fight against divoIce,
the greatest enemy of the nationgand
of the home.
Senator Ransdell spoke in part as
follows:
desire to discuss today one of the
most serious problems confroAting the
American people-the problem of di-
vorce. For many years Eave given
the deepest thought to uis subject,
and am firmly convinced mat the only
way to cure the evil is by absolute
prohibition of divorce, fifth the right
to remarry, though thee is no objec-
tion, in extreme cases. ito legal separa-
tion from bed and board without per-
mission to remarry. Ut was my privi-
lege on the 4th of February, 1914, to
introduce in the Sfnate of the United

Constitution, to Accomplish this pur-
pose, and earnestly hope that | may
live to see ittadopted. Very many
good people re opposed to absolute
prohibition, ss they contend that the
Scriptures sdthorize dissolution OF
the marria9 when one of the spouses
is unfaithpl, and they urge that for
the caus9 of adultery alone, divorce
should bj permitted with the right OF

There Jas been much advocacy of uni

te proper way is for the States them

on this very important subject.

LOYOLA UNIVERSITY
ABsoR8s THE BENNETT MEDICAL
COLLEGE AT CHICAGO.

The formalities Of transferring Ben
nett Medical College to Loyola Uni
yersity we're completed on April IA.
The medical school, which is one OF
the oldest in Illinois, has been affili-
ated with the University for several
years, but it was not until the formal
transfer that the school was placed
under the complete direction of the
president and board of Loyola.
The acquisition of the Bennett school
gives the Jesuit Order, which is In
control OF Loyola, six medical colleges
Georgetown and Fordham in the
east and st. Louis, Creighton, Mar
quette, and Loyola in the west.
The addition of the medical school
makes the sixth college in Loyola Uni
versity. They are law, arts, phar-
macy, engineering, sociology, and
medicine.

SISTERS COLLEGE
GROWTH OF THE SCHOOL AT THE
CATHOLIC UNivERSITY-AR-
RANeEMENTs FOR SUMMER
SESSION.

Arrangements have been perfected
for the opening of the summer ses-
sion of the Sisters College, at the
Catholic University of America and at
Dubuque College, Iowa.
At the present time two residences
of the Sisters College have been built
and are occupied during the present
school year. The larger of the build
ings, which has accommodations for
twenty-five Sisters, was erected by the
Sisters of ST. Mary, of Lockport, N.
Y, and the smaller building, with ac-
commodations for twelve Sisters, was
erected by the Sisters of Divine Provi-
dence of San Antonio, Texas. Those
who could not find accommodations in
these converts rented houses in the
neighborhood of the University, and
in spite of many inconvenience the
fifty-seven Sisters from almost every
section of the United States are do
ing excellent work in the branches in
which the college has been able to
provide instruction.
While the needs of the high school
teachers are kept in view in the ar
rangement of courses provided by the
summer schools in the University it.
self and in Dubuque College, the needs
of the elementary school teachers are
given first consideration. In addition
to the large number of Sisters who
will attend the coming summer ses-
sions, it is expected that many Cath
olic teachers in the public schools will
profit by the work in the future. This
work is not necessarily confined to
teachers for many cultured courses in
the languages, in literature, in history,
art and music are also provided which
would prove of inestimable service to
Catholic young women in whatever
walk in life their lot may be cast.
st. Thomas Hall, on the University
grounds (the former home of the
Paulist Fathers) will be set aside dur
ing the coming summer for the ac-
commodation of the laywomen who
may wish to attend. Similar accom-
modations will be provided in Du-
buque College.
At present the Sisters College
numbers thirteen hundred alumnae,
distributed among a great majority of
the teaching orders. Nearly every
state and diocese has been represent
ed, and the uplifting influence of this
splendid institution is felt today in
NEARLY every parochial school through
out the country.
A new society has been founded, to
be known as the Sisters College
League it's object being to cultivate
in the hearts of all those who are edu.
Icated by the Sisters gratitude toward
these self-sacriicing women for the
benefits bestowed upon them.
| It is earnestly hoped that every
Catholic man and woman who re
lceived their education in the Catholic
schools will send in their name to the
Rev. James NJ Hayes, Catholic Uni
versity of America, and by joining this
league help in the support and uplift
of Catholic education. The Right Rev
Bishop Lynch of Dallas, Texas, has
released Father Hayes for work fol
: the Sisters College. under the direc
ton of the Rector of the Catholic Uni
versity.

meet this problem in two ways,
first by public improvements being
made on the national forests, and
second by the direct contribution
to the counties of share in the
forest receipts. UP to date the
Forest Service has constructed on
the forests more than $500 miles
of roads, $1,000 miles of trails,
nearly 600 bridges, and $4,000
miles of telephone lines. Every
one of these improvements benefits
settlers and ranchers. In addition,
there is appropriated annually for
the use of the counties in which
the national forests lie rs per cent
of the gross receipts from timber
sales and other sources, to be used
for road and school purposes.
Some of the Individual forests are
bringing in over 100000 a year,
and the business of the entire
national forest system is increasing
so that this direct contribution to
community upbuilding is rapidly
growing. In fact. already a total
of nearly 100000 is obtained
from the forests every year for
county road and school purposes.

The reunion takes place in this

LARGE List Of Entries

The list of entries for the 500
mile race on September 4th at the
Twin City Motor Speedway begins
to grow. Fred Duesenberg and
his three cars were the first to enter
and then came Ralph DePalma and
Dario Resta, the acknowledged
speed kings of the motor racing
game. Yesterday this array was
augmented by the entry of Ralph
Mulford another of the famous
drivers of the country and this
will be followed during the week
by the names of many more.
Mulford for years has been one
of the runners up in various races
but also has managed to get out in
front on several occasions. He
jumped into the limelight in 1910
through winning the road racing
championship in an American
built car and the next year won the
Vanderbilt. In the first Indian
apolis 500 mile race he gave
Harroun, the winner, a great battle
but was beaten out at the finish.
At the Twin City Speedway.
Mulford will drive French
Peugeot, which has just been pur-
chased for him by his backer,
Lutcher Brown of Orange, Texas.
This is the car that was driven to
victory at Indianapolis in 1913 by
Jules Goux the Frenchman, who
averaged over seventy miles an
hour for the distance. This car
has since proven very fast and
with Mulford at the wheel. should
be in the running for first place
from start to finish. /.
An extra thousand men were put
to work at the Speedway grounds
last Monday and the work is pro-
crossing wonderfully. Three
stands have been completed and
the remaining three are also well
along. Nearly a mile of the con-
crete is laid and the project will
be complete on the scheduled date,
August goth. The ticket sale at
the Speedway offices in St. Paul
and Minneapolis and at the Dyck-
mann Hotel in the latter city, is on
and a record breaking advance sale
is reported. Indications point to a
crowd of 100000.

DODGE Hay Fever

DO hay fever victims really find
complete relief in the Lake Superior
region?" is a question frequently
asked of the Minnesota Public
Health association. DR.. H. E..
Webster, for many wears health
officer of Duluth. answers the ques-
ton in the affirmative, and gives
reasons for doing so. He says:
Duluth has a special inflow of
summer guests from all parts of the
southern and central states. They
come about the middle of August
as invalids. You can recognize
them by their sneezing. A few
days later they are seen picnicking,
boating, and have anything but
the look of invalids. But they
stay on, because if they go back
to the south they get the fever.
What causes the disease and
why the relief? The principal
cause is the pollen of ragweed or
goldenrod, which irritates the
nasal mucous membranes. Fortu-
nately only few have this lido
syncracy. People who suffer from
bronchial asthma seem to be espe-
cially susceptible. Relief is secur-
ed principally because the region
is free. in, part, from the causes,
the pollen of ragweed or goldenroo,
and the atmosphere is not contain
mated with other dusts which tend
to prolong the attack. Besides,
cool days and cooler nights pro-
mote sound sleep, increase the
appetite add to comfort and cheer.
The improvement in the general
health, no doubt, decreases suscep-
tibility to the disease"

F AR AHEAD
Shipments Lead Last Year by More
Than Two Million Tons

With the slack end of the ore
shipping season over and the rush
end about to begin, ore shipments
from the Head of the Lakes up to
July 81 were 2 ,126, ,SO7 tons ahead
of what they were at the end of
the corresponding period one year
ago. and it would seem certain
that last years ore shipping record
will be broken with large margin
to spare. The total shipments for
July exceeded those of a year ago
by S23, ,7S5 tons.
The shipments of last year, all
told, amounted to 32.O3O,0OO tons,
but it is predicted that fully 4O.-
900, 900 tons, and perhaps more,
will be sent forward this season.
With the lead already obtained
and the ample supply of bottoms
to carry the ore in, together with
the unusually good dispatch, it is
believed that there will be certainly
large increase, for the demand is
continually growing.
Details of the ore shipments in
tons from the Head of the Lakes

Fire at Tower

The Opera House at Tower was
burned to the ground early Satur-
day morning. There was dance
in the place the night before and
the supposition is that some care
less smoker left a burning cigarette
or cigar stub.
The building was owned by
Charles Roland, and the upper
floor used as dance hall and
motion picture theatre, and the
lower floor was occupied by the
Finnish Mercantile company as a
grocery. Almost the entire stock
was destroyed, the smoke being
so dense that it was impossible to
remove anything but what was
right near the doors.

MORTGAGE FORESTS
Bureau Chief Advocates Plan to
Stimulate Agricultural DEVELOPMENT

The Secretary of Agriculture S
plan to anticipate future receipts
from the national forests by secur-
ing an advance of money from
Congress for the construction of
roads, trails, bridges, and other
public works would stimulate
agricultural development and
would relieve many struggling
communities from their present
burdens of taxation, says an article
contributed by the Chief of the
Forest Service to the Department
of Agriculture Year Book, just
issued. This policy, says the
article, would apply exclusively in
those counties where there is a
considerable area of national
forest land so located that the forest
resources can not now be marketed :,
although later they will yield a
large revenue.
1t would fully meet the local
difficulties arising from the fact
that the national forests are not
subject to taxation, would aid in
the protection and development of
the forest resources, and would
remove the one barrier which in a
few places prevents farmers from
Immediately enjoying the benefits
of the national forests.
Millions of acres of farm land
are today undeveloped because of a
lack of good roads. In opening
any new country road building
constitutes hard problem for the
settlers. At first, while the settler
is struggling to erect his home and
farm buildings and to clear his
land, he usually can not afford to
pay high taxes or otherwise contri-
butte toward the expense of road
building. The national forests
comprise the remotest and least
settled regions of the country.
In many cases farming in these
localities is still pioneering. under
as difficult conditions as have ever
existed in the United States. One
of the principal reasons for the
failure to develop the large areas
of excellent agricultural land
which lies near the forests is the
lack of roads.
