Rom For Thrift,

The American Society For Thrift is
sounding a warning that should not go
UNDECIDED. The statistics it has gath
cred indicate how reckless we are with
our money and how little we lay up for
rainy day. We are pre-eminently a
nation of spenders who believe in liv-
ing while we live.
Statistics show that ninety-five OF
every hundred Americans who reach
the age of sixty are dependent upon
their daily earnings or on others for
support. The total, of course, includes
wives, mothers and daughters who had
not tried nor expected to accumulate
competency. But after they are elm
mated the percentage of workers who
have nest egg at sixty is very SMALL
even if that is generally considered too
young for retirement

which are now seeking an opportunity
for service among the soldiers in the
training camps.
Mr.. Neill is a native of Iowa, but
spent most of his early life in Texas.
He received his education in Notre
Dame University where he was after
wards Professor, Georgetown Uni
versity, and Johns Hopkins, Baltimore.
fIe was Professor Of Economics at the
Catholic University of America, but
resigned to become Commissioner of
Labor. His next work was Director of
Welfare for the American Smelling
Company, where he remained until
appointed manager Of tie Bureau

greatest record in American history
for mediation and arbitration in rail-
road labor disputes.

DEPOPULATA

Christ, was in the mind Of St. Igna-
titus. This idea developed after his ex-
perfenceS in war Cannot the same
things happen today just as they hap
pened four hundred years ago? The
horrors of this war are added reasons
for hoping that many men like Igna-
tins may soon appear. The indica-
tons are that the very next Pope shall
be such new creation. The prophecy
after religio depopulata is: Fides in
epida-fearless faith.
But, prophecies aside, and to come
nearer home, let us illustrate our op-
timism. During the Civil War several
priests of Holy Cross from Notre
Dame University, Indiana, acted as
chaplains in the Union Army. There
is a large and attractive mural paint
ing in the hail of the college build
ing representing Father Corby, one of
said army chaplains, giving absOlu-
ton during battle to division of the
army Any one who has seen this
picture cannot forget this painted mix
ture of heavenly and earthly fire. But
enough as to the picture: eXcept to
say one does not ordinarily look for
"vocationS" amidst this smoke and
confusion in I'VE think it isl the
Peach Orchard at Gettysburg. A vo-
cation to q religious order and Gettys-
burg are not readily associated ideas.
Yet, when you look at the mural
painting, you see faces of future
Brothers of the Holy Cross"
At Notre Dame, there is a G.. A. r.
post formerly Of considerable size
whose members are all Brothers of
Holy Cross 1t is safe to say, there
fore, that but for war, the Civil War,
none of these "vocations" would have
materialiZed. 1t was war 1t was
Gettysburg, and Chaplains, like Fa-
ther Corby, which sWelled the ranks
OF that religious community. And the
good these veteran novices did!
They were not merely retired soldiers.
They were more than an ornament
to the institution. They gave this
Catholic College an American tone,
an American tinge, and American
flavor, such as no amount of Catholic
protest and apologetics and book
writing could effect. Their company
was an inspiration TO American
youth. Their war stories amplified
the text books. Amplifed? Aye, put
life into them and brought the his
tory Of our country close to the heart
Therefore is our conclusion optimistic
as to religio depopulata.

ANTI-JESUIT LAW
AROUSED IN GERMANY
AGAINST THEIR ABROGATiON.

The question of the abrogation of
the law in Germany against the Jes-
uits has raised a storm of protest
in the anti-Catholic press of the En-
pire. The "Berliner Tageblatt" and
the "Vorwaerts" consider it "a dam
gerous concession indicating a secret
political orientation very different
from the promises made to Liberals. :"
The ''Taglische Rundschau," organ of
the Evangelicals, says this decision
will revive all the old hatred felt by
the majority of Protestants against
the Catholic Church. Another journal
declares that the action of the Fed
eral Council in abolishing the stat
utes is a concession to the unhappi-
ness of the times. The abrogation
now only awaits the constitutional
consent of the Emperor, and the
Catholic journals rejoice, confident
that this will not be withheld.
