CATHOLIC UNION PLANS
CARE FOR SERVICE MEN
Young Mems Society, in Conven-
ton, Considers Methods for
Physical and Spiritual Aid

| The second business session of the Cath
| lcio Young Mems National Union of Amer
| lea was held today in the Hotel Walton
| The opening prayer was said by the Rev
| John J. McCahill.
Michael j. Slattery, president OF the
| union. In speech before the convention,
| outlined plan whereby the welfare Of the
| young Catholic soldiers might be cared fer.
He suggested that a representative from
the union be installed in each company
throughout the army. Under this plan, the
representative would be an enlisted man.
and would turn in at the end Of each week
report concerning tho physical and sp r
itual condition Of each Catholic man in his
company These reports will he forwarded
to the national headquarters Of the union. at
1893 Arch street, this city, after which
they would be sent out TO the SIS clubs
throughout the country. and thence separate
reports of each man would be sent his
parents.
This plan was suggested because Of what
Mr. Slattery called the young mems morals
in this country. Senator r. v. Farley, who
Is member of the 'Thirty-sixth district
exemption board, said that out of 400 men
called in his district, $50 responded and
only ninety-eight passed physically. The
extraordinary number of physical reiec-
tions was due. stated Senator Farley. 10
absolute immortality on the part of the
youths.
Brigadier General Waller, second in COM
mand Of the United States marine corps.
indorsed heartily the project of installing
representatives
The Rev F. Cattori. director Of the Don
BosCo Institute at 500 South Ninth street,
this city, gave an annual report Of his in
gtituton after which he suggested that
especial care he taken of the young men
between the ages Of fifteen and twenty-one,
on the ground that ia the time when their
characters and habits are in the process of
formation. He indorsed the erection Of in
dustrial institutions for them
Vincent A. Maher. the representative Of
the New York branch said that forty-one
per cent Of the men from his branch had
enlisted in the army. He said that since
the young men were gone and the aCtivi-
tics of the union were consequently weak
oning. II was necessary for the fathers to
step in and take the young mems places.
Frank j. Mcdonnell. president of the
Philadelphia Young Mems Archdocesan
Union. also the national chairman of the
savings fund of the union, reported that in
1916 100000 had been deposited in the
savings fund from Philadelphia alone. He
also said that all the Catholic clubs houses
had been thrown open to soldiers, sailors
and marines

Bruises

DURING the vacation months bruises are
- Of so frequent occurrence that few
simple suggestions may relieve anxiety on
the part Of the mother
For a bruise or confusion in consequence
of a blow received on any Of the soft parts
of the body apply hot fomentation as
soon as possible after the accident. Repeat
the fermentation at intervals of tw" or three
hours as long as the bruise remains sore
and painful During the interval apply
over the part a compress consisting Of a
towel wrung as dry as possible from cold
water and covered first with mackintosh
then with several thclinesacs of flannel to
maintain warmth. The hcmorrhage beneath
the skin which frequently occurs in conse-
quence of severe bruisc may generally
be prevented by firm compression inlme-
dlately after the injury. 1t Is custom
among German mothers when enid iails
striking its head severely, to apply the
convex surface of bowl OF teaspoon
Immediately on picking it up. The COM
preston can be kept up by means OF PAD
and bandage as long as desired.
When a person has been much Jarren ny
a considerable fall or more or less bruised
all over a hot full bath or hot blanket
pack will give more relief than any other
v.
water first.
In case person has been bruised about
the trunk or body by having tree fall on
him or being run over, the services of a
skilled surgeon should be obtained as soon
as possible. Hot lamentations may be
employed in the meantime.
Bruises upon the head in consequence OF
severe blows or fall often give rise to
serious symptoms on account OF fracture of
the skull and compression of the brain or
from simple concussion or jarring of the
brain. If person Is unconscious or par
TALLY paralyzed in consequence Of an acci-
dent in which the head is injured, surgical
advice should be obtained at once and an
X-ray examination should be made As a
general rule continuous cold is the best
application for injuries resulting from
severe blows upon the head, Fomentations
may be applied at intervals to relieve sore
ness, but the hot application should be con-
tinued not longer than five or ten minutes
at a time

oughly cleansed, place "A layer of dill and
a handful of mixed spice. Pack the con-

Cover with cheesecloth cover and a clean
board, placing upon the latter a heavy
weight to hold the tomatoes beneath the sur
face of the brine. Let stand in a warm
room until fermentation is completed and no
bubbles rise to the surface when the recep-
tacle is gently tapped. Skim OFF any scum
which has formed, store the receptacle in a
cool place and seal with hot paraffin to
form an air-tight surface. The brine should
consist Of one-half pint vinegar, tbree-quar-
ters cupful salt. one gallon water. Stir
