iowa IS 18th STATE
IN NUMBER CATHOLICS
Directory of Church Shows the
United States and Possessions
Have 25,436, 1876.
NINETEEN MILLION
IN CONTINENTAL L. S.
Catholic Clergymen i'm Country Are
Said to Number Nearly 10000.

Iowa, with Catholic population of
263,431, occupies seventeenth place
in list of 81 states having a Catho-
lie population of over 100000, &C
cording to the 1917 edition of The
Official Catholic Directory" published
and copyrighted by P. J. Kennedy and
Sons, New York. The total number
of Catholics under the United States
flag, according to the directory, is
5,436, 1876, divided as follows: Con-
tinental United States, 17,022,S79;
foreign possessions he finds that
there are 7,413,257.
According to Joseph H. Meier. the
directory compiler, the figure for con-
tinental United States, 17,022,ST9, is
very conservative, including, as it
does, only the figures submitted by
the chancery officials Taking into
consideration the floating Catholic
population and the fact that some
important archdiocese and dioceses
take a census only at intervals of 10
years, Mr. Meier feels that he is safe
in saying that the Catholic popula-
ton of the United States proper is at
present nearly 100000.
West Indies Not Included.
Looking over the data for our
island possessions finds that there
are 7,342,262 Catholics in the Philip
pines and adding to these Philippine
Catholics the number reported for
Alaska, the Canal zone, Guam, our
possessions in Samoa, the Hawaiian
islands and Porto Rico the total num-
Der amounts to S,413,257. This fig
ure does not include the Catholics of
the three recently acquired Danish
West Indies.
The first Catholic directory was is
sued in the United States in 1917. 1t
contained but u pages. The centen-
airy edition shows the progress of the
church in the past 100 years. The
l y
United States number 1898, and
there are IA archbishops and SO
bishops. The directory further shows
that there are $500 Catholic par
ishes in this country. Other figures
taken from the 1917. publication
show that there are 102 seminaries
in the United States, with 6,S9S
young men studying for the priest
hood; PIC colleges for boys; 6S7
academies for girls; 293 orphan asyl-
ums; 100 homes for the aged as well
as 5,0S7 parochial schools with an
enrolment of 1,537,644 children.

CIRCUS ANIMALS
HAVE MANICURE

One Of the most unusual calings in
the world is that OF the animal mani
cure with the sells.Floto circus. which
win be IN Chickasha Thursday, July
10. This man is veterinary, and his
job is TO keep the feet Of the elephants
and the claw-footed animals in good
shape Animals with claws grind
away the claws when in the wild state
but when in captivity they do not
have the chance to wear them away.
Hence the animal manicure.
When the claw Of an animal gets
TOO long it is a source Of great pain
The only way to keep them in condi-
ton is to file them off from time to
time. 1t is rather dangerous task
to manicure a leopard, but the pleas.
ure it brings an animal should be
enough to soothe the savage breast.
A leopard fights when an effort is
made to manicure his rilbies. with
bears It is different, A bear rather
enjoys the occasion and in most cases
will lie peacefully while the manicure
is working Elephants thoroughly en-
joy the experience Of having their
nails filed In fact, they look forward /
10 the operation with pleasure.
The manicure tools used on an ele.
phant look like those used in a cabi-
net making establishment and ma
chine shop. When the manicure starts |
work on an elephant he drives stake |
in the ground and bids the animal
put his foot on it. Armed with !
drawing knife he trims down the nail. I
and then he files it with a big rasp.
The claws Of an animal grow rapid
ly. 1t is necessary to trim them at
least twice a month Otherwise the
claw is pressed back into the foot ana
becomes very painful
