Canadian Soldier in London
FOUND 1T A CESSPOOL, AND
WANTED TO BECOME A
CATHOLIC.

The salvation of a soldiers soul pre-
vented Father Bernard Vaughan, S. j.,
from attending the other day the fune-
raj of the Earl-Marshal of England.
Father Bernard himself tells the
story in Saturdays Pail Mall Gazette:
"A poor Canadian came to me the
other day." he writes, land said that
he could never have believed that the
world was such a cesspool as he had
found one side of London. Looking
round, he told me that he had come to
the conclusion that the only way he
could cleanse himself was by means of
the Sacraments. AS he was going to
the front, he implored me to receive
him into the Church that day. To do
this it was necessary to obtain special
faculties from Archbishop's House
I'm the ordinary course it is neces-
sary for a convert to receive instruc-
ton, but in order to meet the special
circumstances of this mans case, |
Immediately proceeded to instruct him
myself. The result was that he was
duly received.
Some people" adds Father
Vaughan, .think we plunge at them to
obtain converts, and then drag them
in. But before we are ready we can,
not take them in, and when they are
ready we cannot keep them out"

Death of Lady Herries
WAS MOTHER OF THE DUCHESS
OF NORFOLK.

Lady Herries died recently at Ever

mother of the Duchess of Norfolk.
She was a sister of Lord Howard of
Glossop and of the Dowager Lady
Butte and was the widow of Baron
Herries, who died in 1908. She had
two daughters, but no son, and the
Duchess of Norfolk, as the elder, in
herits the barony of Herries in her
own right. The other daughter is the
wife of Sir Eric Drummond, private
secretary to Mr.. Balfour. The family
is an old Scots Catholic one with
many connections.
The Duchess of Norfolk has an inn
portant task before her, the building
of the character and the protection
of the health of the little duke, the
frail life of nine summers which is

The Virgin of Montenero
CELEBRATION IN FULFILLMENT
OF ANCIENT vow.

Leghorn has celebrated once more
the feast of the Virgin of MONTENEGRO,
the sanctuary just outside the city
picturesquely situated on the hill
overlooking the Mediterranean.
Preaching at the close of the festival
Father Oldra of Turin called to mind
the terrible days of 1742 and the debt
of gratitude the people of Leghorn
of those days owed to the interces-
sion of Our Lady when the sacred
image was brought down from the
sanctuary and carried in procession
through the city. Earthquakes, sea-
quakes-what would be called a tidal
wave if there were any tide to speak
of in that part of the Mediterranean
"a pail of darkness over the district
at noon, and other pOrtents had
spread terror. Yet, though houses
fell down through the nine earth
quake shocks which occurred in
three days, and animals fell dead in
terror, not single human being was
lost. The people fed to the country,
but all returned when the holy pic
ture was brought in to the city from
MONTENEGRO and in their gratitude for
freedom from harm they made a
perpetual vow of fasting on the 9th of
| January and of an offering of six
pounds of candle wax to the sanctu-
airy, which was done this year as
usual.

Catholic men more closely to the
Church through the profession Of their
belief in the Divinity of Christ and
through the practice of monthly Com
muniOn.
When Father McKenna began his
Holy Name work it was forbidden
to erect the Holy Name Society in
more than one church in city, and
that preferably Dominican church.
The jealous director for many years
obtained a dispensation from this
law for individual churches, and fin
ally, in 1896, succeeded in having the
law set aside altogether. This, to-
gether with the crusade of preaching
he carried on for the Holy Name So
ciety, was largely responsible for it's
remarkable development.

noting vocationS to the priesthood

HILL in one of the best sections of the
city, and a section that will become
more central with time. AS far as
physical equipment goes, therefore, it
is superior to it's older rival. In its
teaching it is conceded to be as good
as the State institution; and in fact
its law school and engineering school
are considered better. On it's faculty,
| particularly in law, are to be found
many of the best and leading names of
Chile.
Admissions such as these are made
| by the rival camp. In truth, the
| rivalry is of most friendly variety.
Chile is small country, and the edu-
Gated ruling classes in Santiago com

one is related, and the general feeling
existing between the two universities
| is not unlike that between Harvard
and Yale. or between any two of our
universities. Fortunately there is none
of that bitter feeling which exists in
some other countries. The "ins' and
the outs of all political parties are,
as has been said, usually related
and the differences, in the last
analysis, are more nominal than real:
quite unlike the situation in Uruguay,
where the Inns" and the 'outs" are at
daggers drawn, and stand for distinct
| ly antagonistic program.
Private Schools Do Better Work Than
Public Schools.
And as it is in the political, so it
is in the educational field in Chile.
Authoritative opinion holds that the
private schools probably do better
work than the public schools do. Ger

any point of view, from the State

the men in politics are satisfied to
let the private institutions do so WELL

their uncles, cousins or even brothers

1t is scarcely necessary to dwell

Their McKenna did for the welfare of
the Church in the United States,
writes Rev. Ignatius Smith, o. P, in
America"
He took up the apostolate begun
by Father Tom Burke, 0. p, with
whom he was very intimate, and con.
tlnued it for almost fifty years. The
effect of his preaching has been felt
in nearly every city and town of the
country. If he had done nothing more
than develop the Holy Name Society
he would have earned the grateful
remembrance of laity and clergy
throughout the land. His zeal for
this society was inspired by his often
expressed love for the laboring man.

Anglican Catholics Again
BISHOPS TO A MAN REFUSE
PETITION OF 1000 CLERGY FOR
SACRAMENTAL RESERVATION.

In the London Universe we read
that the Upper House of Convocation
has passed motion which may have
far-reaching effect on the "Catho-
lic'' party in the Anglican Church. It
was to the effect that the Bishops
should reaffirm a decision formulated
as long ago as 1911, in a proposed
new Rubric, that reservation of the
Sacrament should be permitted for
the purpose of communicating the
sick and for no other purpose what
soever. The Bishop of Oxford, in
moving the resolution, asked the
Bishops to reaffirm the decision and
to call on all loyal Churchmen to
render ''canonical obedience" He
informed his hearers that he and
other Bishops had received passion
ate appeals not to disturb the peace
of the Church during this time of
war by interfering with the right of
open reservation, and had received
also a memorial, signed by 1000
clergy, protesting against the denial
to the faithful of the right of access
to the reserved Sacrament for the
purpose of devotion. He concluded
by saying that there was nothing in
the memorial to alter their resolu-
ton, and very much to show them
how necessary it was to make their
meaning clear and to ask for the sup
port of the Church. The Bishop of
London said that he hesitated to vote
for the motion because he had reason
to think that he would have to pledge
himself to allow no access to the
Blessed Sacrament when and where
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1917-03-24

it was reserved for the sick. That
had proved impossible. The tide of
human grief and anxiety had been too
great. The longing to get as near as
possible to the Sacramento Presence
of Our Lord had been too urgent. He
could not be a party to turning out
of the Church of England those 1000
ministers who had signed the memo
rial, and the people who followed
them. Nevertheless, in spite of the
Bishop of London's protest, the motion
was carried entirely, The answer of
the Anglican Bishops to the longing
to get as near as possible to the Sacra-
mental Presence OF. Our Lord is
plain enough. To the majority of
them there is no Sacramento
Presence, in the sense meant by the

Please tell origin and length of Lent

The term of fasting and abstinence
preceding Easter that we call Lent is
of very early origin. Some call it
Apostolic. The earliest historical evil
dence, however, that we have for it is

time the observance of the fasting had
