The BAD POpES OF rome.
WHY Il Is Possible to Give Thiags Sacred
Nalnas and then Drag to VIest Depths.
The Menace,

The Menace has no disposition
to make black any darker than il
is, or the bad worse than history
warrants. If The Menace said
there were bad popes the reader
might say it was prejudiced
To avoid misunderstanding and
10 let the truth hold the readers S
interest. The Menace publishes
a list of bad popes, according to
IGatholic historians The Menace
knows how hard it will be for
some of it's readers to understand
l1Gw it is possible for the viceger,
ents of the Christ, on earth, to be
as bad as presented, but it is even
so and only part of their vileness
we may presume, came to the
knowledge Of the public.
Readers of The Menace need
not doubt this catalog of crimin-
al men for it is true, and terribly
true. What bearing, then, does
this list of base men have on the
claims of the hierarchy? 1t
looks to man who has studied
titles that there is break in the
chain, for certainly these men
did not in any sense represent
the Christ. or any decent thing.
BY whose authority of unbrok-
en- succession does Pope Plus X.
then, claim his possession as
Holy See? Figure that out if
you can. If you have a priest in
Jour town, or archbishop or
some member of the hierarchy
who can prove that black is
white and that bad is good-let
him say how authority Can be
handed down if the Holy Ghosts
never conferred it on them. Je-
sus somehow argued that d cor
rupt tree could not bear good
fruit, so that during the time
these base men were occupying
the chair at the Vatican t.l4 Ro-
man Catholic church was with
out pope, and when you deprive
the organization of a pope you
have taken the life out of the
body and there is a corpse and
it certainly stunk.
But miud you, reader, if people
can believe and accept the pope
and all the claims made for the
Roman Carholic church, under
such conditions, that is no affair
Of ours Our cont n ion is that
this Roman Catholic sllall not
be MADE Il state church with all
that the pope wants.

Iongbottom has done and It is ! record Of which
the whole county may well be proud Since No
vember, when the Seaforth branch started mit-
ting, Mrs. Eongbottom has knitted eleven sweat
ers besides other articles all for the Red Cross.
Her record now is sweater every two days
and we don't believe any one can beat that She
is woman sixty five years old (she doesn't come
to Redwood Falls very often SO we dare to tell
her age). We hope when we get to be sixty five
we will be doing something as useful and as fine
as knitting sweater every other day for the
boys who need them. We won't be doing just
that we know from our first experience with the
knitting needles-it takes mental and physical
ability don't possess, but for that very reason
we are more awestruck at what these women
like Mrs. Longbottom are doing. This sort Of
work calls for personal sacrifice Of time and
pleasure and rest, and calls for perseverance
which is wholly admirable
We hereby hand Mrs. Longbottom the banner
of the county championship, and if anyone gets
it away from her, she will have to work! Three
cheers for Mrs. Longbottom Of Seaforth

out, but we must not rely on it for moment.
Germany is on very short rations-so short that
it's death rate is said to be appalling; but it is
long way from starvation. It is grim busi-
ness, but it is our duty to keep all the food and
supplies we can from Germany; but we must not
let hope in the success of this method of warfare
cause us to relax any effort.
The one way to win the war that we can rely
upon and should rely on is by hard fighting and
decisive military victories.
That is the one thing that it is essential that
all of us get hold Of and cling fast to. No way
Of winning peace is now in sight except that.
To win peace, we must win the victory; and that
can be done only by hard fighting and decisive
military victories on land and sea-
To that end, it is necessary that every indi-
vidual give his full support to his country, and
that not an ounce Of food or supplies shall be
wasted because to waste them is to take them
away from our allies and our own armies and
thereby to weaken them to Germany's advantage.
The one way in sight to win the war is by
beating Germany. Let us all get that firmly in
mind, and devote ourselves to doing it. That is
the only thing we put our reliance in with
safetys-Duluth Herald.

A MERRY CHRISTMAS

Is our wish to wish to every reader of ours, ev-
| cry one who is going to become reader, the
world in general, our most worthwhile enemy
in particular and every else to whom we are
not permitted to give spoken greeting. Very
Merry Christmas!
There is one day in the year when sorrow is
forgotten in thanksgiving, when selfish ways are
forsaken, when the desires of the people are
chastened, when the hearts of men are mellowed
anew, and when the multitudes celebrate with
acclaim the birth of the Christ. Soon merry bells
will announce to the world, s'The Day Has Gomez
The tongues of thousand pealing bells will scat
ter the news that the day has dawned
We tender our good wishes for that day. May
it be the happiest, truest Christmas our old world
has even seen. May we think more worthily, feel
more deeply, and do more nobly this Christ
mas.
Especially do we wish happiness for those who
must work at their regular tasks Christmas
day, and for those who are stricken with sickness
or grief We wish every heart might be bright
on that day with the Christmas spirit Of joy.

THE THING TO GET HOLD OF.

n LOST Of us have been banking too much
N in our war thought on hopes too slender
- to rely on safely. Indeed, they are SO
slender that to rely on them at all is not only
unwise but even dangerous
We may hope for revolt by the German peo-
ple but we must not rely on it for moment
There are utterly no signs of It now.
We may hope that Germany's allies, being
less interested than she is in peace, will force
Germany to stop the war; but we must not rely
on it for moment. It is so improbable to
be absurd. They may wish to do this, but they
dare not.

MESSAGE OF CHRISTMAS.
Cardinal Gibbons)

cardinal GlbbOnS)
Today the whole Christian world prostrates it
self in alteration around the crib Of Bethle.
hem and rehearses in accents Of love or char.
ity which precedes all time and will endure thru
out eternity. If asked to explain the rapturous
influence which controls us we have no other
words than the evangel of joy which the angel
gave unto earth, "For this day is born unto you
Saviour, who is Christ the Lord"
The blessings resulting from our Christian civ
ilization are poured out so regularly and album
dainty the intellectual, moral and social world
like the sunlight and the air of heaven and the
fruits of the EARTH that they have ceased to ex-
cite any surprise except to those who visit lands
where the religion Of Christ is little known.
Before the advent of Christ the whole world
with the exception of the secluded Roman prov
ince of Palestine, was buried in idolatry. Men
worshipped the and moon and stars Of
heaven They worshipped everything except
God only, to whom alone divine homage is due
Christ, the Light of the World, proclaimed unto
all men in its fullness the truth which had
hitherto been hidden in Judea. He taught man
kind to know the one true God, God existing
from eternity unto eternity. God who created
all things by his wisdom and whose superintend-
ing providence watches over the affairs Of ma
tons as well as of men-swithout whom not
even sparrow falls to the ground"
The message of Christmas day is intended fol
all men, for all times, for all conditions Of exist
ence. Only by stern adhesion to the principles
therein contained can individuals and nations
hope to share in that peace which has been prom
ised to men of good will. To violate them is t.
reverse the order established by God.

MAKE IT AN OLD-TIME CHRISTMAS.

Make it an old-time Christmas, make it day
of bliss,
With all of the old-time gladness make up fol
the joys miss;
Let us live for the ones about us, there is need
for our love today,
Let us Danish the dread and doubling and make
it a time for play.
Let us show to the mothers us some sign
on the Christmas morn
That we know tits for us they suffer, for US are
their sorrows borne;
Let us gladden. their hearts by smiling, for this
is troubled year
And many are weary and mournful, Oh this is
a time for cheer.
Let us go to the homes this Christmas where
banners of service fly,
And gladden. their walls with laughter and love
that shall never die;
Let us thrill with the Christmas spirit, let us
honor the service star,
Let us make it day Of gladness for the sake
of the boys afar.
Let us give as we've seldom given, let us think
as we've seldom thought
Let us soften with love and friendship the care
that the year has brought
Let the ioy of the Christmas message ring out
in the old-time way,
Let us gladden. the lives about us, for there's
need of our cheer today.

THE CHRIST LIGHTS.

THE beautiful custom of lighting candle
Christmas eve and allowing it to burn
= until the bells ring out to announce the
coming of the Christ Child originated among
the peasantry of Ireland and IS to this day faith
fully carried out. With the setting of the sun
on the Holy Eve all work is suspended. The
man of the house lights the candle, which is Of
q size and magnifcence in keeping with his
means, and the watch until midnight is given
over to prayers and songs Of the coming Christ
Child, who is referred to in the old warm Celtic
tongue sThe little white blossom, = ssthe little
white lamb of my heart" At midnight the bell
rings out, the lights are quenched and the people
hurry to church to pour out their hearts in well
come. The mother is the last to leave the house
and it is her duty to quench the light, as sign
Of the true light to come. In the past few years
an attempt has been made to introduce this beau
tiful custom in the west. It is already well es-
tablished in the east. Last year, miles and miles
Of streets in the large cities blossomed with these
herald lights, and it was no uncommon thing to
find them in the homes Of those who knew neith-
Ter their meaning nor their origin, but whose ar
tistic fancy was caught By the beauty Of the
custom. Let us hope that these little welcom-
ing sars will some day make the whole earth
beautiful for the Christ Child's coming. Win
