as a matter of fact, only drifting. L

him go. 1 did not dream that his feel

that If this were true and Howard

The root of the matter is found in

TASK FOR PARENTS.

Sending the children regularly to
school is good, but it is not all.
Parental vigilance is duty which
cannot be neglected without jeopardy
to the young. Fathers and mothers
can depute to others the task of teach
ing the multiplication table and incul-
eating the rules of syntax, but the cor
rection of the child, his moral direc-
ton, and his chastisement, physical
and intellectual, is mainly of domestic
obligation. There are some duties
that are non-transferable. When such
responsibilities are violently thrust
upon others, or inflicted upon the good
will of teachers, the offspring is
wronged and betrayed at the parental
hearth. Catholic parents must care
for their own households and espe-
ciaIIy that part of the household
which is their own flesh and blood.
If they are not remiss on this point,
they will find themselves admirably
seconded by the parish school and the
Church. Where these three influences
conspire for the instruction and cor
rection of the child, all will be well.

in full. Later on, the child, thus
saved from danger, might be seen
mounting the altar in his turn, and
blessing the Angel of his life. The
two priests, the one aged, the other
young, realized that the gift of one

A CHEERFUL FACE.

Garry the radiance of your soul in
your face. Let the world have the
benefit of it, your cheerfulness be felt
for good wherever you are, and let
your smiles be scattered by the sun
beams, ION the just as on the unjust"
Such disposition will yield rich re-
ward, for its happy effects will come
home to you and brighten your mo-
ments of thought Cheerfulness
makes the mind clear, gives tone to
thought, adds grace and beauty to the
countenance. Smiles are little things,
cheap to be fraught with so many
blessings, both to the giver and to the
receiver, pleasant little ripples to
watch as we stand on the shore of
everyday life. They are the higher and
better responses of nature to the emo
lions of the soul. Let the children
have the benefit of them, those little
ones who need the sunshine of the
heart to educate them, and would find
a level for their buoyant natures in
the cheerful, loving faces of those who
lead them. Let them not be kept from
the middle-aged who need the encour
agement they bring. Give your smiles
to the aged. They come to them like
the quiet rain of summer, making
fresh and verdant the long, weary
path of life. They look for them from
you who are rejoicing in the fullness
of life. Be gentle and indulgent to

out deep recognition of parental
authority and parental regard and
affection. Children are growing up in
the spirit of independence, and not
seldom are heard to exclaim that their
parents brought them here and de-
serve no thanks for looking after
them. That's all there is to it, they
say. Children do not realize their
duties to their parents. And when
they grow, and the parents become
old and need support, these children
aim to throw off the care and fail to
bestow the affection. The duties of

The absence of proper regard and
care for the old people in the house,
is bad example for the young around
who are quick to see the neglect and
to initiate it. And thus the children
grow up with the same lack of rever-
ence and the same disposition to dis
regard the claims which the aged
have on us all. Practical experience
urges us to call attention to the great
need there is, almost universally, of
showing more tenderness and bestow-

WHERE is YOUR SON?

Father, do you know where your boy
is when he is not at home? After
nightfall are you quite sure he is in
good company? Are you at all con-
cerned regarding his whereabouts?
You remember the story OF Jesus
when Joseph and Mary missed Him
after they had been up to Jerusalem.
He was only a child of II. His par
ents thought the Boy was somewhere
in the company with whom they were
travelling, and when it was made
known that He was not, there was

Then did Joseph and Mary return ta

after three days they found Him in

Perhaps were you to go out in
search of your missing boy you would
not find him in such good company.
Are you sure he is not with the gang
on the corner? Is it not possible he
is at one of the vile performances
nowadays called burIesque? Has he
been lured to the card table by evil
companions? Is he a frequenter of
the low saloon?
Do you ever think of these things,
fathers? Is Jimmie proof against the
iniquity of the day? Home is the
haven of security. Make it what it
should be. Make it like the sacred
home at Nazareth, where Jesus, Mary
and Joseph lived happily together and
where there was peace and content
