The plan of Washington to provide
for the common Defense" in con-
formity with this great preamble, con-
templated universal military training
and universal military service, and
this plan was adopted, at his instance,
by the Congress of the United States.
Unless we are prepared to defend our
selves we must be content, at some
future time, to have the name of the
United States of America enrolled in
the list of nations which have perish
ed. Unless we are willing to impose
upon all persons, regardless of rank
and station, regardless of riches or
poverty the duty of serving in the
common defense, we shall continue to
place ourselves in the position of
those who would be blind to the die
tates Of justice, while accepting the
unwarranted sacrifice of the bravest
and best
Among the leading principles by
which the illustrious leader of the
American Revolution sought, as presi-
uCllI vi Il1S OIIICU OIdJCS, W
the general welfare, was the preserva-
ton of peace. He realized that war
is never to be sought, but is, in it's
best estate, direful necessity. Peace
is constructive. War is destructive.
The arts of peace are more glorious
than the arts of war. The great
heroes of all history are not those
whose hands have gripped the sword,
but those who have learned the phil
osophy of helpfulness and in the light
of that learning have led their fellow
men to greater heights of moral ex-
cellence and to conditions that PRO
mote the general welfare" When the
time came for Washington to retire
from the duties of state he caused to
be issued and distributed among the
American people a most impressive
| farewell address. The words of this
address have reverberated throughout
the globe and have touched every
generous heart. Listen to the eX-
| hortation!
observe good faith and justice
towards all nations; cultivate peace
and harmony with all; religion and
morality enjoin this conduct; and can
it be that good policy does not equally
enjoin it? 1t will be worthy of a free,
enlightened, and at no distant period,
great nation, to give to mankind
the magnanimous and too novel eX.
ample of people always guided by an
exalted justice and benevolence."

not yet clearly known. It was said at
first that they had been caught with a
band of Villistas in Monte Escoledo,
and were to be executed for the crime
of sedition. Then came the day when
the court-martial was to be called and
they were to be tried with greater len
iency, thanks to the Intervention of
the United States. On the 26th it was
announced from Washington that the
Bishop of Zacatecas, the Right Rev
erend Michael de la Mora, had been
set free and was on his way to the
United States, the Archbishop of Quad.
alajara remaining still prisoner.
Finally, on the 28th, came from Mex
leo the information that the Arch
bishop had been eyiled, and that his
companion had already left the coun-
try. On the other hand, in letter re-
ceived in San Antonio, Tex, on the
Goth, the assurance came that it was
not the Archbishop of Guadalajara
the Most Rev. Francis Orozco y jim
inez, who was a prisoner but his broth
er Joseph. In a word, the Carranzistas
have made great fuss to convince the
people that the Bishops are really con.
spring against the government (Which
they have never been able to prove)
and at the same time to brighten the
exiled prelates away from Mexico un

ustiano Carranza, be pleased to call
them. And for their efforts to comfort
the faithful in their terrible trials, the
Bishops have been maltreated, Sian
dered and expelled without process OF
law or justice.
"But the Carranzista campaign
against the Bishops does not stop
there. On the 29th it was announced
from Queretaro that the de facto gov
eminent was going to send delegate
to Rome, to lay before the Pope evi
dent proofs of the conspiracy of the
higher clergy against the government
But it is not probable that there will
be any such delegate or any such
proofs, which they have never present
ed. However, they have a great inter.
est in announcing all such news, that
being published by the press it may
discredit the clergy and the Church. :

YOUR CATHOLIC PAPER
CARDINAL GIBBONS TELLS INCL
DENTS TO SHOW HOW GOOD
MAY COME FROM CASUAL READ
ING OF A CATHOLIC PAPER.

In a recent interview on the Catho-
lie press, Cardinal Gibbons said:
Catholic papers should never be
thrown away, for you can never tell
how much good can be accomplished
by picking them up. | will give you
an instance of the good resulting from
the reading Of a Catholic paper:
When I was in North Carolina, forty
years ago, as a Bishop, l had letter
from a Protestant gentleman who was
prominent physician in that State.
He addressed the letter to Whining
ton, North Carolina, and therein re-
quested certain information about the
Catholic Church. Through strange
coincidence, the letter got into my
box; l read it, and it started cor
respondence between us. l gave him
all the information | could about the
teachings of the Catholic Church, but
in order to avoid unnecessary cor
respondence, | sent him some Catholic
books to read. After several weeks
he wrote me, saying that he was sat

Church was the true one. He further
stated that on such a day he. would 60
to Wilmington with his wife and chill
dren, and if deemed worthy, that they
would be happy to be baptized at my
hands.
when l saw him | said, Doctor
what made you desire to become q
Catholic?' In reply he said: That is
a very fair question. This is the first
church | have ever entered. There
were no Catholics in my county, and
the first I knew of the Catholic re
ligion was when | read sermon in
a paper that was handed to me- +"
81 remember another instance" said
the Cardinal. Some goods were
wrapped in religious paper, which
proved to be the old Catholic Mirror
of Baltimore, and it lead to the con
version of the person who found the
bundle in a box and read the paper
Those are just two instances out OF
many, for very much good comes
from the reading of Catholic papers.

CITIES OF REFUGE.

In the tumultuous days of old, when
every mans hand was against every
other man and every other mans hand
against him." when the principle of
due process of law" was practically
unknown and private vengeance was
the rule of the day, it was absolutely
necessary that there should be some
place to which one could fly fer safety.
Such were the ''cities of refuge" OF
which there were six in Paless ne. He
who succeeded in reaching such asy-
lum when pursued by his woull-be de,
stroyer was safe until his right to pro-
lection was judicially decided. In all
probability there were cities of refuge
in other countries than Palestine.

notice that it does not seem to appeal

INTERESTING REPORT SHOW S
VALUE OF THE DENOMINA-
TIONAL SCHOOL.

Under this title, The Young Luther
an, by the following statistics gives
conclusive proof of the contention of
the Catholic Church for the necessity
Of religious training as a part of edu-
cation:
One of the lamentations of the
Protestant churches in our days is
that the percentage of men members
is so much smaller that that of
women. The Census Report of Re-
ligious Bodies (1910) says that of
every 100 members in these churches,
on the average, 80 were men and 81
were Women-to be exact, 1913 per
cent of this membership was of men
and 60.7 per cent of women. Over
against this, the membership of the
Roman Catholic Church was reported
at 40 per cent men and 81 per cent
women. The Church last named lays
much stress on it's parochial schools.
Combining our examination of the
Census Report to few of the larger
Protestant denominations we find re-
suits as follows:
Baptist Bodies = No parochial
schools, 3S.5 per cent men; 61.5 per
cent women.
Disciples or Christians-No schools,
40 per cent men; 60 per cent women.
All Methodist Bodies-No schools,
38:5 per cent men; 61.5 per cent
women
Methodist Episcopal Church-No
schools, 374 per cent men; GIG per

The efficacy of legislation can cas-
