PACEFISTS TO BE ACTIVE
BEFORE SPRING CONGRESS
~ouovest Feeling Of Public Pulse a
Question Of War Before Law ),
makers Convene.

New York, March :2.-speakers C
q three-day session Of the Emergency
Peace Federation here. declared there
was ample time to feel tho pulse Of
the country on the question of war IN
the interval intervening before the
extra session Of Congress begins on
April 2. The "fallacy of rushing into
war" should be impressed upon con-
gressfonal leaders, they believed. ,
President Wilson, it was asserted,
should be urged to renew at this time
his peace proposals to the warning
powers because Of the Russian rev.
olution and it's effect upon Germany
and Austria Hungary.
The speakers expressed the belief
that the belligerents are at present In
"a receptive mood" on the question
Of the peace advances.

0NE-HUNDREDTH CATHOLIC d.
RECTORY

Seventeen million Catholics live in
the United States, according to the
1917 edition of the Official Catholic
Directory, and Joseph H. Meier, COM
piler Of the directory, regards this fig
ure as Conservative since it includes on
~ figures submitted by chancery off,
Gals. Taking into consideration the
"foatingN Catholic population and the
fact that some archdiocese and do
ceses take up a census only at inter-
walls of 10 years. Mr.. Meier feels that
he is safe in saying that the Catholic
population Of the United States is at
present nearly 19,00e,00O. With 81
American archdiocese and dioceses re-
porting increases, four showing de-
creases and 33 archdiocese and dioce-
ses making no change in the popula-
ton figure the increase in the number
Of Catholics during the year 1916 is
shown to be 45s,770, bringing the re-
corded total to 17,O22,879. One hun.
dred years have elapsed since the first
Catholic directory was issued in the
United States. The centenary edition
shows IA archbishops, 90 bishops and
1888 Catholic clergymen in CONT
mental United States. There are 56S7
parochial schools with an enrolment
Of 1857 ,644 children. Twenty-seven
states in the Union have a Catholic
population Of 100000 or over. Mime.
sofa has Catholic population Of 49,
1876.

Wrecked by 4 Knife Blade.

A ship was once wrecked on the
Irish coast. The captain was care
full one. Nor had the weather been of
so severe a kind as to explain the wide
distance which the vessel had swerved
from her proper course. The ship went
down, but so much interest attached
to the disaster that diving bell was
sunk. Among other portions of the
vessel that were examined was the
compass that was swung on the deck.
and inside the compass box was de-
tected a bit of steel, which appeared
to be the small point of a pocketknife
blade. It was learned that the day be-
fore the wreck sailor who had been
set cleaning the compass had used his
pocketknife in the process and had
unceremoniously broken off the point
and left it remaining in the box. That
bit of knife blade exerted its influence
on the compass and to degree that
DETECTED the needle from its proper
bent and vitiated it as an index of the
ships direction. That bit of knife
blade wrecked the vessel.

When Pattens Were Worn.

Americans find It more difficult than
the English to understand what Dick:
ems means when he says in David
Copperf1eld," "Women went clicking
along the pavements in pattens." Pat
tens were an abbreviated form of stills.
The word is also used by builders az
the name Of the base Of a column OF
pillar, and so enthusiastically the pat
ten is the support used by woman to
keep her out Of the water and maud.
From this architectural use has come
the secondary application Of the word
meaning an arrangement attached to
the shoe so that the walker is raised
three or four inches above the solid
earth, says Popular Science Monthly.
II the mud and water did not exceed
that depth. the shoes were thus kept
fairly dry.
It appears that pattens were not
worn solely by the rich, but were lux
uries INDUCED in by the very poor.
In speaking of person who was not
especially speedy Ben Jonson uses the
comparison, you make no more haste
than a beggar upon pattens."

Comma In Out Of tho Wet.

There is an amusing story by Athe-
naeus which suggests the possible orr
gin of the phrase "He does not know
enough to come in out of the wet" Ac-
cording to the entertaining grammarian
referred to, a town in Greece under
stress Of evil circumstances borrowed
money from rich man, who took as
security for the loan mortgage on the
handsome portico which surrounded
the market place. He was not an un-
generous creditor, for when it rained
he caused the town criers to announce
that the citizens had permission to
take refuge under the colonnade.
Strangers visiting the town who fail
ed to have the matter properly explain
ed to them were so impressed by the
extraordinary circumstances that they
spread abroad the report that the peo-
pie were so stupid that they had to be
told when TO come in out Of tho wet,

based on a tremendous appeal from
the country for revenge for Germany's

In reaching his conclusion to hay be-

president brought to an end a struggle
for peacs-not only with his advisers,
but with himself-perhaps the most
dramatic in history.

Steele County Citizen: Steele coun'

started for the organization of farm
boys and girls clubs throughout the
county is rapidly gaining Roadway UNI
der the direction Of County Agent w.
V. Gousseff and County Leader B. B.
Jones, the high school agricultural d.
rector. It seems only a question OIL
time before every boy and girl in the
county will have access to at least one
or two of the clubs. The work of the
two local men should be commended
and enthusiastically supported by every
farmer and business and professional
man in the county, by the former be-.
cause it makes for a valuable educa-
ton at minimum cost for his boy and
girl and by the latter two classes be-
cause Of the all-important fact that
Steele county is dependent on the

Mankato Review: Those who are
urging military training in the public
schools will do we'll to consider these
words Of General Baden-Powell, the
originator Of the boy scout idea:
"Drill school boy and spoil a SOL
dier.'' These are not the words Of
a pacifist or theorist, but of a practi-
cal soldier, who had made a study Of
war and the best means of preparing
nation for war. His boy scout move
ment had such preparation in view, but
he saw that the ordinary military drill
in the schools was harmful to the pro-
per mental and physical development
Of the boys and opposed it for that rea-
son.
