RAILROADS CONDEMN PRACTICE
WILL NOT PERMIT AGENTS OR
EMPLOYEES TO DISTRIBUTE
ANTI.CATHoLIc LITERATURE.

Complaint reached the American
Federation of Catholic Societies that
railroad employees and tenders of rail-
road crossings, while on duty, were
circulating papers and publications
which SANDER the priests and Sister
hoods of the Catholic Church, and that
bundles of these papers were thrown
off near Catholic colleges and insti-
tutions.
That this practice might be discon-
tinued, the National Secretary of the
Federation sent letters to the head of
ficials of various railroad companies
asking them that if they are not in
sympathy with this method of insult
ing their Catholic patrons, they should
see to it that this practice, if it
exists on their road, be discontinued.
Twenty-four of the twenty-seven
railroads addressed sent replies, and
in every instance they condemned the
practice in principle. Some denied
that the conditions complained of OBJ
tanned on their roads; others said that
such distribution, if carried on, was
against positive instructions. In sew
eral cases investigations we're prom
ised and it was stated that those
found guilty would be severely disci-
plined. In one case, at least, the prac-
tice was found to have prevailed and

THE CHRISTMAS CRIB

st. Francis, born in the quaint little
town of Assist among the brown UNI
brian hills in 1882, designed the pre-
sepio, the reproduction of the manger
of Bethlehem to make the Christmas
story plain to the simple, illiterate
common people. Since then it has re-
manned a fayorite object of devotion
in Latin Europe. The Italian and
Spanish call it the presepio, the man.
ger; the French the creche, the cradle,
and the Hungarians and Belgians,
Betleim, or Bethlehem.
Only few years since not carpen-
ter could be hired in Rome or Naples
for weeks before Christmas. They
were all busy erecting presepios in the
homes of the well-to-do, while the
poorer folk were constructing their
own. In Sicily people still make the
presepio every year. All over the
island families are busy from Deem
Der to Is putting their old presepios
in order or making new ones, and
there is much calling to and fro to
compare results and admire new and
elaborate specimens of the art. The
presepio may be a little thing on a
stand in one corner or it may occupy
the whole side of a room, according
to circumstances.
1t may represent whole mountain
side, made of the rough, flexible bark
of the cork tree. Peaks, crags and
precipices abound, with winding trails
houses and castles of colored card
board, forests of twigs and sometimes
tiny pipes to furnish brooks and lakes
In the center is the grotto, with the
Holy Family within. A sky of blue
paper is stretched above, with the
star of Bethlehem conspicuous, anG
over the hills come shepherds, bear
ing gifts.
Spain, like Sicily, has never lost the
presepio, and in both Spanish anG
Sicilian cities there are booths for the
sale of miniature shepherds, magi ant
all the accessories of the art. II
France the creche is not made a
home, as in the southern countries
but it is a part of the Christmas dec
orations in every French church.

Brief Reviews and Notices

John Bannster Tabb, The Poet
Priest BY M. S. Pine (Sister NJ.
Paulina). Published for GEORGETOWN
Visitation Convent by The Munder-
Thomson Company, New York and
Baltimore. Price $1.10 postpaid.
The name of Father Tabb holds an
honored place in the literary world
on account of the lyrical gems, so
chaste and lofty in their expression
of truth, with which he has enriched
English literature; but the story of
his life is known to few even among
those who are familiar with the
productions of his pen. This is as he
would wish it; for he detested pub
licity and everything that savored Of
the personal.
The volume before us, the first to-
be written about the famous poet
priest, is very successful attempt
to paint portrait of the man and to
give an estimate of his exquisite
poetry. Father Tabb was born of an
old and wealthy family near Rich
mond, Va, on March %, 1916, and
served as a boy-soldier in the con-
federate army from the beginning of
the Civil War until June a, 1864, when
he was taken prisoner, court-mar-
tailed, and sent to the Bull Pen at
Old Point Comfort, where he remained
eight months. After his release he
taught in an Episcopal school in Bal
timore where, through association
with the Rev. Alfred A. Curtis, an
Episcopal minister and later a convert
to the Church, he was led to embrace
the Catholic faith in 1874. He en-
tered St. Charles College, Ellicott
City, Md, to study for the priesthood
and became member Of the faculty,
a position which he held until the end
of his life He said his first Mass at
midnight on Christmas, 1884. His
Iamented death took place in NoVem-
Der, 1909, after about a year of total
blindness.
Into the narrative the author
weaves copious extracts from Father
Tabb's poetical works, laying special
emphasis on the deeply religious char
acter of his writings
This attractive volume, filled with
the choicest gems of Father Tabb's
literary output, should make a wide
appeal to all lovers of poetry The
receipts from the sale of the book
will be used to create a Memorial
Father Tabb Scholarship for clerical
students at st. Charles College, the
institution so dear to his heart, SO en-
balmed with his presence for thirty
five years as professor priest and

THE LIGHT OF BETHLEHEM

IT'S Christmas night! the snow,
A flock unnumbered lies:
The old Judean stars aglow,
Keep watch within the skies.

The pulses of the night:
A deeper mystery infolds
The wondering Hosts of Light.
Till 10, with reverence pale
That dims each diadem,
The lordIiest, earthward bending, hail
The Light of Bethlehem!
