DEDICATION.

Nearly nineteen hundred years ago
the son of God, as he stood in a tenn
pie in Jerusalem, was asked, (which
is the first commandment Of all 2"
He replied, "Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God This is the first COM
mandmcnt, and the second is like
unto it; Thou shalt love thy neigh
Dor as thysclf.' There is no COM
mandmert greater than these" To-
day the great sorrowful eyes Of this
same Son Of God gaze down upon
blackened fields, where mangled bod
bodies Of men are strcwn as grains
of wheat, upon flaming, shattered
hamlets and shattered firesides.
AS he listens to tbs screaming Of
tho shells, the crushing Of mosntr-
GUS guns, all the shastly sympho-
ny Of the reddest war mankind has
ever known, His heart must rccog-
nize the bitter truth in the statement
of one Of the worlds foremost cdu-
cators--that in nineteen centuries
Z Civilization has failed to accept hon
estly the teachings Of Jesus Christ.

Dear Mr. Ince:
For one who has been through
the Gehenna of Nations in France,
and for the millions who remain, as
went, to lay down my life for the
defense of my country and my low
ed ones, thank you, sir, with a sim
pie soldiers prayer that your Won
derful picture (Which l saw here to-
night) may waken your own great
race to the Demoniac madness Of
modern war. What you in your
mighty screen sermon have depicted
vivid, remorseless and truly hor-
rible as it isis but the least part Of
the Saturnalia of war.
Picture the stencil of your COM
rades rotting in death by your side
as you are bespattered by the hot
blood of others freshly butchered in
I in all the blistering heat and volcanic
X thunder of shrieEsing shells and bel-
ching guns! Then in the black and
deadlier silence of night, while you
lie half buried in muddy, bloody
slime hour after hour, waiting for
hell's fire to burst out from earth
and sky again, to feel the maggots.
that are devouring in their millions
the men you have lived and fought
by, crawling over your own living
carcass, as your brain reels in delir-
ium at the sights and sounds you
hear and see, and at those strug-
Cling souls you feel above and about
you, still fighting ghostly battle in

FROM THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDS.

From Samoa, belonging to the
Vicariate of the Navigator Islands,
comes a letter written by Bishop T.
Broyer, S. M. He announces some
good news, namely, that last year he
was able to send catechist to the
Manu- Islands, sixty miles distant from
Tutuila, which island, it seems, be-
longs to the United States and should
therefore have a special interest for
us.
"The catechist at Manu- was we'll
received and already counts some i'm
portant people among his converts.
The son of the former king, his wife
and children, the wife of the present
native governor and their children
and several other 'personages," have
readily accepted the Faith.
The catechist deserves and needs
some help in planting our religion in
this new soil. Associates of our So
ciety are asked to give prayers and
aims to further the success of his
work.
