DOMAIN Or TEMPERANCE
CONDEMNS TREATING"
SOLDIERS.

A British magazine scores as fol-
lows the treating" of soldiers home
on sick leave:
in order that the men might be
safeguarded against the false kindness
of their friends at home, no gifts of
Intoxicating drinks are allowed to be
forwarded to men serving in the army
or navy. But where Unreasonable in
jury has been done, and is still being
done, notwithstanding all the restric-
tons that have been put in force, is
through the treating of soldiers by
civilians when they are on leave and
| mixing with their friends and asso-
ciates out of barracks. Those who
| live in close proximity to depot or
camp or frequent any big railway
station where troops are constantly
coming and going, can not fail to be
| impressed with the evidences of in
| toxication manifested by considerable
| numbers OF men in navy and army
uniform. The injury that is being
done is incalculable. We read quite
recently in a leading daily paper about
the burial Of a soldier. He had been
inValided home from the front, where
he had made a good stand. He was
in the hospital and was progressing
favorably. He had been in a terrible
condition with bodily wounds and
| shattered nerves. When conValescent
he got couple of hours leave, and
arrived back in the hospital drunk
rIyit Ia NH
rible night Of delirium, he was dead.
He had fought the enemy away yonder
in the trenches and came home TO be
killed by the traitor in the midst of
us. A considerable proportion OF our
returned wounded are in such cOndi-
ton Of nerve injury that the use Of
alcohol means collapse and almost GER
tain death. Why should such thing
be permitted? Ought not these
wounded men to be protected and ten
derby nursed back again to health, and
not left to the ravages of an enemy
that is death to them and curse to
| the country?
I'm this connection it is interesting
to note that while eighty-five per cent
Of the Russian wounded are able after
a short time to return to the firing
| line, the percentage Of British capable
OF again helping in the defense of their
country is only siXty-fve If every
man possible is needed for carrying
this war to victory for us, then there
is a tremendously serious considera-
ton. 1t is beyond dispute that the
difference is owing to the fact that
the Russian convalescent soldiers are
safeguarded by prohibition, while ours
are the prey of the open public
| house"
Russia has clinics in its cities where
| inebriates may go for special treat
ment. In few months after vodka
was prohibited only twenty persons
were admitted at these clinics in Mos
COW, as against 1916 in the same
period of the preceding year. In
Petrograd, in these same months there
were eleven patients in contrast to
594 in the same time in 1913 The
mobilization of the army, of course,
affected this work to some extent, but
with all due allowance for this factor
| the difference is quoted by DR.. We'd
| ensky, Russian specialist in nervous
and alcoholic disorders, as significant
| of increased sobriety, especially when
taken in connection with corroboratory
evidence from other lines of statistics.

DANTE, THE CLASSIC.

Under the above title DR.. FranB
Crane gives forth some vapid mus
ings on the great, Italian poet
The Doctor admires the author OF
the Divine Comedy for the latter s
personality and the sheer beauty
of his craftsmanship" AS for all
the junk with which Alighiert
is loaded down. such as theo
logical discussions, astronomical
theories, the wars and jealousies
OF medieval Italy, the good Doc.
tor declares that no one is inter.
ested. Yet, he admits that Dante
is "a great name in the literary
world, and that he retains his
hold upon people of culture every.
where.
When a man pens syndicate
articles for plebeian consumption
he is tempted to be fippant, even
when treating serious themes
Surely the Doctor must have
known that it is scarcely in good
taste to designate as junk that
which passes his individual I'M.
derstanding. Moreover, he hardly
was unaware that Dante was q
great theologian as well as a poet
and that possibly there might be
things in Dante s writings that
were hard to understand and that
the uninitiated might Wrestle tC
their own discontinue. But it is
even so. Aside from the illusions
to mythology and local history
with which the Divine Comedy
assuredly abounds, there is depth
Of Catholic teaching which seldom
has been surpassed by theologian
or apologist in the most elaborate
treatises. Take, for example, the
third part, on Paradise. In delv.
ing into these depths no one but
a person imbued with deep Catho-
lie doctrines and possessed of q
thorough grasp Of the dogmas of
Faith, could hope to survive
Dante was a Catholic to the core
he wrote for Catholics, and hence
knowledge of things Catholic is
essentially required in order that
one penetrate the veil that shrouds
the mysteries Of Faith. A man
who could label "junko the sub
lime descriptions of the Godhead
contained in that third part, truly
is fit only for stratagems and
spoils, to say the least. DIR. Crane
sees but the exterior: he, and
others like Km, have missed the
glories within the shrine. As
Dante says of himself, speaking OF
a first glimpse of heaven:
. y = so saw [ there
Legions of splendors, on whom
burning rays
Shed lightnings from above; yet
saw | not
The fountain whence they flowed. 8

General Phil Sheridan once re
marked that the most reliable of
his commanders was General Han
cock. He said: eff [ wanted a
man to stay where | put him I'd
select Hancock. For genuine
politeness and gentle regard for
women, Hancock was incompar-
able. IF Mrs. Hancock came into
his room twenty times in half an
hour he would always stand up. "
Thus it is. The truly brave are
ever courteous and considerate.
General Hancock seems to have
touched the apex of courtesy
when he included within its
sphere his own wife. Therein lies
the difference between Sheridan s
"most reliable commander, and
the average man.

THE new UNDER SECRETARY
APPOINTMENT OF SIR WILLIAM
PATRICK BYRNE-oNE OF THE
FEW IRiSH-cATHOLICS HOLDING
GOVERNMENT POSITION IN IRE
LAND.

Sir William Patrick Byrne, K. G. V.
o., G.. b., who has been appointed
Under Secretary to the Lord Lieuten-
ant of ireland, was born at Whiting
ton, Lancashire, is fifty-seven years OF
age, and a barrister at Gray's Inn.
He is a Catholic Of Irish origin, and
was educated at st. Cuthberts Col
ter, after which he entered the serv-
ice of the General Post Office. In
1884 he was transferred to the Home
Office, where he became Senior Clerk
in 1896, and Assistant Under Secre-
tary of State in 1908. In 1910 he was
appointed Registrar of the Baronetage,
and in 1918 Chairman of the Board of
Control in connection with the Home
Office. In 1894 he acted as Secretary
to the Inter-Departmental Committee
on Riots, and later as Chairman of
the Home Office Committee on Inc
briate Reformatories, and as member
Of the Royal Commission on the
Predetermined. In 1910 he was one of
the British delegates to the Interna-
tional Conference in Paris on Aerial
Navigation. Every fair-minded per
son will wish Sir William a happy
and successful tenure of his Office in
a period of difficulty without precedent
during the last hundred years.
The fact that this appointment is
noteworthy is a telling commentary
upon the manner in which Irish ap-
pointments are usually made. And
yet people ask: whats the matter
with Ireland, anyway"

It was but natural that in the
volcanic condition of affairs eX-
listing in the State Of Colorado a
convent-inspection bill would not
be a phenomenon. In spite OF
every effort made by enemies OF
the Church all last summer, it
seems that the required number of
signatures could not be obtained.
Hence the omission Of the bill on
the official ballot at the recent
election.

Very often we receive copies,
marked and otherwise, of certain
vile sheets published throughout

requested to comment on this or
that article. Be it said once for
all that Catholic paper owes a
duty to the responsibility Of its
readers. In virtue Of this duty it
ill behooves lis to befoul the pages
of a Catholic publication by even
naming such purveyors, of filth, as
are the. papers here alluded to.

Balzac uttered a deep truth
when he wrote: Religious edu-
cation is the great principle of the
life Of good society, the only
means Of diminishing the total of
evil and of augmenting the total
Of good in human life. Thought,
the foundation Of all good and OF
all evil, cannot be disciplined, con-
trolled, and directed except by re-
ligion; and the only possible re-
ligion is Christianity

A headline that is very mislead-
ing, to say the least, has appeared
in many Catholic papers during
the present month. 1t states that,
PRAYERS for the dead prove Pur-
gatory." This statement, taken
as it stands, isvery inexact since,
in it's literal sense, prayers for the
dead prove no such thing. Only
in an indirect sense can this be at
all true. The existence of purga-
tory rests directly upon other
evidence.

Lo, the poor Indian, finally is
deserving of recognition from
many of his white brothers.
Father Gerard, @. f. NJ, in the
franciscan Herald says: ''The
Fathers rarely see an Indian yawn
during the sermon, much less fall
asleep. The longer the instruc-
ton the better he likes it, it would
seem. One thing is certain, the
Indian never tires of hearing the
Bible stories and the truths of our
holy religion. The Indian spends
four hours in church ON Sunday"
