A CHAPLA|N'S BRAVERY
JESUIT PRIEST IN THE TRENCHES
DOES HEROIC WORK.

Under the title of "The Great Push"
Private Patrick McGill, of the British
forces, tells the story of life as seen
from the trenches. Every word rings
true. One of the most interesting
chapters in the book is devoted to the
Lane Fox, S. j., who is at present re-
covering from wounds which have de-
prived him of the use of an eye and
hand McGill describes how an am
munition wagon is seen driving the
wrong way into the very jaws of the
guns. The men watching it in the
trench shout in vain to those who
have taken the wrong road. A min
ute later one horse goes down, then
the other; the driver pitches out onto
the struggling animals, and his COM
panion disappears by the side of the
van. Then from out the British
trenches a soldier, an officer, is seen
to come running over the No Mans
Land, where shells are continually
falling. A machine gun is trained
upon him. AS the shells come, he
falls fiat, then rushes on, to fall fiat
again. The bullets he takes little
heed of. At last he reaches the wagon
and disappears behind it, and the men
in the trenches hear nothing further
of him during the day. But when
the night comes, Father Lane Fox, for
it is he, the Catholic chaplain, stag
gers into the trench carrying on his
back one of the men of the ammuni-
ton wagon, wounded whom he has
watched beside and tended all day
long. The other was dead

CRADLE OF CATHOL|C|TY
OLD ST. LOUIS CATHEDRAL IN
NEW ORLEANS HAS INTER-
ESTING HISTORY.

From the day that Bienville left
Biloxi to found more suitable site
for his fifty or so colonists in the
deserted Indian village of Tchouchou-
ma, the present site of New Orleans,
that city can boast of a distinctively
Catholic spirit. Hence when we look
for Catholic landmarks we find them
strewn over a period of well-nigh two
hundred years, back to the beginning
of the city's existence, writes Rev.
]. E. O'Donohoe, S. j., in America.
In the heart of the new settlement,
according to the plans laid down by
LIE Blond de la Tour, chief engineer
of the Colony, Catholic church was
to have place of honor; in the very
center of this town Bienville estab-
lished the church and presbytery of
st. Louis, and the old st. Louis Ca
thedral and it's presbytery occupy the
site today.
The brick building of 1924 was bare
ly replaced in 1898, through the munif-
cence of the princely Almonaster y
Rojas, by the present noble edifice
when disastrous fire stopped, it was
believed, miraculously at it's doors.
Subsequent reservations and additions,
notably the belfry of Latrobe, have not
affected the original design, and we
are assured that the present extensive
restoration plans will leave us the
same venerated pile, monument to an
illustrious Catholic past. AS it stands
today it is unrivaled in antiquity and
continuity of worship in the United
States. 1t has been the center of al
Catholic activity from the very day OF
the city's foundation. Holy Mass has
been celebrated there for well-nigf
two hundred years.
Not only is it a great national mon
ument, the cradle of Christianity with
in the immense territory of the Missis
sippi Valley, but it also stands the ma
iestic witness of all the most notable

IMMORAL PROPAGANDA

The immoral propaganda carried on
by the birth control faddists received
a well deserved setback in Boston a
few days ago, when Judge Murray
sentenced Van Kleeck Allison, leader
OF the movement in Boston and a
former Columbia student, to the house
OF correction for three years. Allison
was found guilty on charges of dis
tributing obscene literature after one
of the most unusual trials in the his
tory of Boston. Both Judge Murray
and District Attorney Pelleter scath-
ingly denounced the young man and
the movement he stood for, in the
course of their statements.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Denton, Texas, Aug. Il, 1916.

Denton, Texas, Aug. II, 1916.
To the Editor of The Catholic Bulletin:
Many thanks for the copies of the
Most Reverend John Ireland's letter
on Vacations to the Priesthood"
The great need of priests is felt in
all places. The age being Materials
tic has lost the taste for higher
things. Rich parents prefer to see
their sons in the social whirl. Poor
farmer boys or those of poor laborers
have no such aspirations, as means for
their education are lacking. There is
need of schools where these poor boys
might be educated gratis for the
priesthood. Buildings could be erect
ed cheaply. Those boys used to prfva-
lions would not complain. When
priests, they would be the best as
they are able to do without many
things which the rich need.
The Catholic press ought to discuss
this.
Yours,
RAYMOND VERNIMONT.
