NOBLE WOMEN DENOUNCE BICOTS

draw their invitation to Bishop Kelley
to- deliver the Confederate Memorial
day address at Macon, as requested
by 60 members Of the Confederate
Veterans association in that city, sole
ly because the bishop is a Roman
Catholic, the ladies of the Macon
Memorial association are eminently
in the right. And their stand evinces
a degree of broadmindednes that is
cornmendable. Here follows a state
ment of the affair.": The women
however stand pat, and by an over
whelming vote refused ito recall the
invitation to Bishop Kelley. The
women were right; and the men were
wrong
What better vindication of the
position of the Macon d. A. RS could
be afforded than by barking back to
the records of half a century ago,
when Bishop Kelley as a young strip
ling, radiant with patriotism, volun-
teered in defense of the Confederate
cause, donned gray uniform and
from beginning to the end of the war
rendered brilliant service to his coun-
try?
He was a Roman Catholic then,
just as he is now That fact did not
disbar him from patriotic service then,
nor should it now The women of
Macon showed the instincts of true
womanhood and patriotism in their
Espunky response to the recalcitrant
veterans, which reflects infinite credit
upon Them
The Atlanta Constitution is to be
complimented on it's brave and SEN
sible attitude, so unlike that of many
contemporaries which pass over in
conniVing silence the many slurs that
are at times cast at Catholic citizen
ship, all the more SO, when we know
that Tom Watson, of W4tsons Jeffer-
sonian, has, as we are reliably in
formed by a southern gentleman, the
editors of all the Georgia newspapers
with but few exceptions, so politically
enmeshed and dominated, that they
are afraid to open their mouths in
defense of the Church and the patriot
ism shown by the long list of patriots
who gave their life in the service of
our country.
This unfortunate affair is but an
other of the many examples which
prove, that we can be none too vigil
ant and active in counteracting by
sane propaganda of enlightenment and
defense the sinister forces that seek
Ito stigmatize Catholic citizens and
make pariahs of those protesting the
Catholic faith.

Mary Boyle O'Reilly, writing from
London, says. England's fear of Yep
pelins has subsided and the secret of
.Englands success lies in a discovery
by a $6-a-week drug clerk. As a re-
suit British gunnery was able to
bring down three invading airships
in flames on a recent raid. The dis
covery by the drug clerk resulted in
new form of rife shell which sets
a Zeppelin afire. Alec Corr, the

with the government. Corr was a

FOR A NATIVE CLERGY
BISHOPS ARE ANXIOUS TO TRAIN
NATIVE PRIESTS. a...s !

An urgent propaganda is being car
ried on by all missionary bishops for
the training of a native clergy to fill
gaps in the ranks of European apos-
ties. Many have made a good begin
ming. Mgr. ]. c.. Bouchut, P. F. NJ,
of Cambodia, announces that his mis-
sion already, possesses fifty-one native
priests, and he hopes, during 1917, to
consecrate six more young men. The
mission countries are almost as rich
in vocations as our own. All that is
needed is the opportunity to develop
these vocations.

victlon and was not only devoted but

No SOUL SLOuCH.

A certain young woman, whose feat
ures nightly illumine a thousand NOV
ing picture screens, and whose salary
doubtless shames the presidents is re
ported to have uttered the sage remark
that There is such thing as a soul
slouch."
OF course there is and we are glad II
life has dealt so gently with you in the
past that you are just finding it out.
But soul slouches aren't in fashion
this year. And that's one compensat.
ing thing about all the stress and storm
OF the days in which we are living
we're tremendously alive.
The man with slouchy walk is eth.
er lazy or indifferent. At least he stops
short of his full capacity for physical
activity. The man who is full of busi.
ness seldom drags his heels. And the
man with enough 20 do can't be on the
job and slump in his mind at the same
time.
A nation in trouble is a nation awake.
It's the old story of the frogs in the
can of cream. One gave up and drown.
ed The other kept kicking and when
the farmer got to town there sat the
frog smiling on floating island of
butter. About the time that frog found
himself in trouble. he decided that there
was no such thing as a soul slouch. And
the men and women of this country are
finding 1t out too. Minds are quickened,
spirits are heartened and a new sense
Of personal responsibility has entered
the consciousness Of every man and
woman.

it the most valuable service OF all. in

CONTROLLING STORAGE.

A few years ago the public awoke all
at once to the fact that the cold stor-
age industry had changed from a pub
lie blessing to menace.
In original intent cold storage was
one of the finest devices of modern life.
1t was meant to keep food from vast
ing, to save foodstuffs in time Of plenty
to use in time Of dearth, TO provide uni.
form supply for great populations the
year around, at fairly uniform prices.
But the business had been perverted.
1t had become the plaything of gam.
blers, the means Of monopoly and extor-
tion. The machinery Of it worked pret-
ty well but the public failed TO get its
due benefit. The peoples food was not
stored by the people for the people 1t
was boarded by spectators and sold to
the people at the gamblers own prices.
State after state enacted laws to rem.
edy this evil. Most of them set a def.
mite time limit to the storage OF perish
able food, for the purpose Of compelling
the holders to Throw it on the market
without dangerous delay. II was hoped
thus to bring the law Of supply and do.
mand into play again and automatically
keep prices down to a fair level But
somehow or other it hasn't made much
Improvement
Everybody knows how high prices
have been lately, even Of products
which are being produced pentifully. A
recent government report revealed the
reason. There is far more meat, poul-
try. butter eggs and various other food.
stuffs in storage houses today than
there has ever been before. They are
being boarded there by the food sharks
instead of flowing naturally to the open
markets, So in the midst of plenty we
have an artificial scarcity and are fore.
ed to pay famine prices.
It's time for thorough. honest regula.
tion Of the storage business. 1t should
be done without delay by the federal
government. II 1t is necessary to take
over all the storage houses the public
will cheerfully consent.
