through the relief given to their pow
erty. Knowing that but little could
be done without some accurate notion
Of the exact number of those thus af-
fected and the definite causes for their
detection, the Bishop called together
the Chapter and announced the APP
pointment of board of inquiry to ex-
anime into the details of the case.
The board Mas to discover how many
children had lost their faith by reason,
respectively, of the neglect or death of
their parents. the activities of prose
lyting societies, and the workhOuse
system.
In February, 1886, the board was ap-
pointed; five months later it made it's
report, giving mass of valuable data
on the last two points, but recon.
mending that the real extent of the
problem could only be shown by cen
sus of all the Catholics of the diocese.
This the Bishop immediately ordered
to be taken, although he realized full
well the hugeness of the task. For in
order to be adequate in any way, this
census necessarily had to include
those who were not regular in their
church attendance or affiliation. The
results of the census, however, were
we'll worth the effort that was made.
They were of the greatest aid in the
work that was to be undertaken.
"By May in the following year, 1886,
though the census was still far from
complete, it was ascertained that out
of an estimated population of 100000
in Manchester and Stafford $4,000
names had been registered Out of
these $4,000 had been carefully ana
lyzed. AT the annual Synod held in
May, the Bishop, after explaining that
by dangerous cases were meant un-
usual danger to faith and morals, said:
The total number of dangerous cases
under sixteen years of age amounted
to S,445.- OF these 1858 children were
considered in extreme danger, as
never attending church or Catholic
school, or as hopelessly having bad
parents" life of Cardinal Vaughan,
1910, p. 1860. The necessity of accur-
ate information was indicated by the
fact that only 1856 cases in danger
between the ages of Is and II years
were known to the clergy, as com.
pared to 8,445 under the former age.
The memorable rescue work which
resulted from the facts thus diseov
cred is well known to the. student Of
Catholic charity 1t pointed to Bishop
Vaughan as the Apostle OF the Chill
dren, a worthy successor later on tc
the great social CARDINAL 2 Henry Ed
ward Manning. It contains the little
reminder to other corporal works d
mercy that today they must not looI
too much askance at the keeping Of
necessary statistics in their endeayors
Happily, the National Conference o.
Catholic Charities, in its discussions
reiterated this fact for them.

STATISTICS AND CHARITY
THE EXPERIENCE OF CARDINAL
VAUGHAN.

The 1916 National Conference of
Catholic Charities, held last month at
the Catholic University, emphasized
some important and instructive points
in regard to Catholic charitable activ-
ity. The necessity of real knowledge
of the people to be dealt with, of the
extent of their distress, and of the
manner in which best to aid them
was in particular brought out by it's
discussions. It is coming more and
more to be understood that Catholic
charity cannot accomplish real good
for those who are suffering from desti-
tuition unless it is conversant with
what such people require and how
widespread is their misery, corporal
and spiritual. Accurate knowledge of
these things. must be gained from a
study of those in restitution, from sur
veys of particular communities in
which all social conditions are pre-
| dominant, and from the keeping of
statistics as to all these necessary
| items
In the past, it must be confessed,
there was tendency among Catholics
to strongly discount all such efforts
{ as contrary to the true spirit of char
table work. At the present day, to a
certain extent, the same tendency is to
be found, though it is fast giving away
to more appreciatiye and enlightened
view. All things, it is true, can in
deed be carried too far-and SO it is
with this matter of systematiZation,
and particularly of record-keeping. In
many associations, where the idea of
Catholic charity has long been lost
Isight of, it is beyond a doubt over
done, to the detriment of the work
which is being carried on. But that
statistics in regard to particular dis
ltricts and classes of the people is a
Igreat and Indispensable aid to the do
ling of good among them must finally
be recognized.
1t was SO recognized by one whose
name has stood out brilliantly in Cath
Ollie social activity. Those who have
Tread the simple but attractive social
stories of Olive Katherine Parr know
how beautifully in The Little Cardl
naI' the character of Cardinal Waugh
Ian appears. His work for the little
children has made him noteworthy
Ieven among those who did not appre
ciate his ideals and his efforts. In
the seventeenth chapter of his Life
of the Cardinal, J. G. Snead-Cox has
shown the prelate's work as Bishop Of
Stafford for the children's sake, = and
how he used statistics to advantage
in that work.

DIOCESE OF BISMARCK

Odense: On November 8, the new
st. Johns Church was dedicated by
Bishop Wehrle, who also celebrated
Pontifical High Mass, in order to show
the congregation his appreciation of
the progress made there within the
last few years. The new church is a
substantial frame building with fine
basement; the congregation has with
in the last years increased SO much
that the former building could not fur
Their accommodate them.
SoIen: On November 9, the new
Sacred Heart Church was dedicated
by the Bishop. Solen is a prom
Using town within the Standing Rock
Indian Reservation; many Catholic
settlers have taken up land within the
reservation, and thus the building of a
church became necessary. The priest
at Odense, ReY. George Rau, has
charge of this new congregation. His
untiring efforts made the building of
this church possible. He is also in
charge of the small Indian mission at
Red Cedar, and he supervised the
building of third church, st. Bern
ards, which is about six miles from
Solen. The Indians have for some
years been very anxious to have a
mission church of their own; they also
contributed quite literally towards the
building funds, and are now highly
pleased to have this small, but neat
chapel. 1t was also dedicated on the
ninth of November.
Van Hook: The new Church % ST.
Anthony was dedicated on November
Il. Van Hook is a new town on the
500 extension to Shanish; all the
Catholics of this congregation are new
settlers, there being about thirty
families. The Catholic Church Exten-
sion Society contributed to this Church
the sum of $4,000.
