STORY OF A CONVERSION
SPANISH FREE-THINKER RE.
TURNS TO THE CHURCH.

The irish Catholic of Dublin tells
the story of the conversion of we'll
known Spanish free-thinker and
propaganda of socialism, Tomas
Santos Garcia. The chief interest
centers in Senior Garcia's own account
of the steps which led him to the
Church,-an account which took the
form of lecture delivered in one of
the Catholic educational centers of
Madrid. The speaker ascribed his loss
of faith to the works of such writer's
as Renan, Tolstoy, lola, Gorky,
Nieztche and others, all of which he
read with a youths indiscretion and
want of discrimination. He finally
became an ardent socialist and Ma
sonic leader. and was soon absorbed
in the rather rough game of Spanish
politics, in which, of course, he was a
prominent partisan of the extreme
Left" The conclusion was gradually
forced upon him, he. says, that
amongst the socialists, freemasons,
and others affiliated with the radicals,
ninety-five per cent of the leaders and
prominent men are hypocrites- ''sa-
viors of humanity, redeemers of their
kind, whose sole aim is to save and
redeem their own pockets at the cost
of Others
About the time he had reached this
conclusion, Senior Garcia made the
acquaintance of the President of the
St. Vincent de Paul Society in Vigo,
who met him in the course of house
toulouse visits; and the disillusioned
freethinker could not but compare
the unobtrusive and genuine charity
OF the brethren Of the conferences

CATHOLIC SOCIAL WORK
CHURCH DOES NOT SEEK PUB
LIcITY AND GENERAL PUBLIC
LITTLE DREAMS OF GOOD Ac-
COMPLISHED.

There are persons who believe that
Catholics are doing very little in
practical social work, just as there
may be found from time to time be-
nighted individuals who are surprised
to learn that the Catholic Church sup
ports thousands of foreign missions,
says America" One reason for this
ignorance is the aversion of the aver
age Catholic institution to publicity.
While non Catholic social agencies
employ publicity men" for the very
laudable purpose of interesting the
community in their work, Catholics, as
rule, so dislike advertising that
they seem to forget the Scriptural in
junction of letting their light shine
before men. This tendency is greatly
to be regretted.
In almost all large American cities
splendid Catholic institutions are do
ing noble work in the field of social
service unknown to thousands of
Catholics in their own communities.
If these institutions do not adopt
proper means of bringing their ac-
tiVities to the notice of the public, it
is hard to see with what right they
can complain that the Catholic pub
lie does not support them. Blatant,
untruthful forms of advertising are, of
course, harmful; but a clear state
ment of an institutions purpose and
needs would not only be most valu-
able to the social worker, but would,
in many instances, win substantial
support for the institution itself.
1t has been well said that Catho-
lies never know what Catholic insti-
tutions are doing for the outcast mem
bers of society until some municipal
Judge visits Catholic hospital or
reformatory and proceeds to let the
public know, through the medium of
the daily papers, what "our Catholic
brethren are doing" There is much
truth in this criticism. If Catholics
do not support Catholic institutions
as they should, the reason may be
found, occasionally at least, in an un-
wise self-effacement on the part of
the institutions. One of the strongest
arguments in favor of public inspec-
ton, properly conducted, of Catholic
reformatories and social agencies is
the fact that this inspection would
let the world know the great good
which Catholic institutions are effect
ing all over the country

CENSUS OF ROME
SHOWS POPULATION OF 6oo,os7 IN
THE ETERNAL CITY.

According to the census of Rome,
taken last March, the population on
the banks of the yellow Tiber has in
creased to 6O0,087. This means an
increment of 59,954 inhabitants since
the taking of the previous census,
corresponding to 2S.44 per cent every
year.
1t may be news to those who ex-
press pessimistic views on the solu-
brity of the climate of Rome to know
that the Eternal City boasts of being
among those cities in which mortality
is lowest.
