A TOUCHING AFRICAN CUSTOM

Bishop Lemaitre, White Father,
who is Vicar Apostolic of the French
Soudan, gives us an account of the
fervor and devotion of the people of
his diocese. Here, as elsewhere, the
women are specially devout. Very
often at Mass woman will have two
or three children by her side and a
baby on her back 7a u

ceiving Communion under such cir
cumstances is most touching:

their infants fastened on their backs.

blacker the face, the larger and whittier
the eyes appear the action of the
priest placing the Sacred Host upon
the mothers tongue. There seems TIC

and longs for the repose of the next
world, but no doubt his bishop is anX-
ious to retain his faithful servant as
long as possible.
Before he passes away Father Sau-
ret would like to accumulate enough
money to build good church-one
worthy of the big city of Kurume.
The actual building he would leave to
his successor, his only stipulation be-
ing that it should be dedicated to the
Sacred Heart. In Japan, the poor
structures acceptable to the natives, of
Africa or China would not do at all.
The Japanese are accustomed to fine
edifices, and at least passably large
church would be needed in order to
satisfy the Catholics. Let us hope
this faithful apostle will see his hopes
fulfilled before saying farewell to ia
pan.
A few more catechists would be of
great use in Kurume. The cost of
their support is from ten to fifteen
dollars a month, they also demanding
higher salary than in many mission
districts.

LOSS IN THE TIENTsIN FLOOD.

We have read in the newspapers of
the flood that wrought such destruc-
ton in Tientsin some months ago.
Naturally the missions were affected,
and we can see in what manner by
this letter from Bishop Dumond, c, M.
with the torrential rains of July
and August the Imperial canal became
so swollen by the neighboring streams
that it burst its dykes near Tientsin
and in a short timeN had covered the
city with water. In two days after
the breaking our quarter and the
greater part of the European Conces-
sions were deluged to the height of
two feet, while in the Chinese dwell
ings lower down the water rose to
the windows.
THE flood caused much destruction
and loss to the mission, and have
been obliged to inform my priests that
the school budget must be reduced

schools whom we have carefully edu

PROUD OF HIS FLOCK.

1t is with justifable pride that Rev.
S. J. Kelly, Josephite Father, sends
a photograph of large group of chill

could have had four hundred, but it
was impossible for me to get them
ready.
I'VE had to move out into the yard
on this occasion, because the little
church could not hold them all at the

church in the summer time, but the
roof leaks so badly when it rains and
the sun shines so hot when it doesn't

AMERICAN PRIESTS NEEDED II
THE PHILIPPINES.

Nowhere could American mission
aries. do, more good than IN our own
possessions, the Philippine Islands.
1t is believed that if each diocese had
one such priest, he could WELD an
immense influence over the natives.
A Jesuit, Father John Thompkins,
says in a recent letter:
Il have just returned from Tugue-
garao. There | met the Delegate and
Bishops Foley and Mckinley. The re-
ception of the people in town to their
new Bishop was very generous. One,
however, sees with sadness the same
conditions religiously there as here in
Vigan. Not enough priests, the youth
are growing up uninstructed. Ameri-
can Professionalism is active. If we
could only have one American priest
in each province much good would be
accomplished. We must pray to Our
Lord not to abandon this portion of
His little flock"

ENGLISH Ex-LORD CHANCELLOR
PRAISES PoPE's CIRCULAR.

In an article headed, 'The Pope's
Circular" in the current issue of
Common Sense" Lord Loreburn,
who was Lord Chancellor in Mr.. As
quith's government before the forma-
ton of the coalition, says:
Cup to the present moment our
government has not said and could
not be expected to say more in re-
gard to the Pope's appeal for peace
than that they will give it serious con-
sideration. What is important in that
appeal is not the particular terms the
Pope suggests, which obviously are a
mere sketch, but the fact that fresh
invitation has been addressed to the
belligerents from disinterested quar-
ter of high authority.
'It was said long ago that weak
men make war and strong men make
peace. We cannot suppose that our
ministers are unaware of what is at
stake The future destiny of man
kind is at stake. We can all assist
in creating an atmosphere which will
help them in doing what Lord Cecil
said they were doing, namely, aim
ing at a sound and satisfactory peace
resting not on conquest and domina-
tion.' These, again, are general words.
1t is the spirit which matters. And
the proper spirit surely is not to base
our future relations with other coun-
tries on the basis of lasting hatred
No human relations based on lasting
and irreconcilable hatred between ma
lions have ever proved beneficial in
all history or ever will. If the Pope
makes us realize this little sooner
rather than little later the differ
ence may mean the saving of millions
of young lives"
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1917-12-15

1--WE think it most remarkable
fact, that no Christian nation, which
did not adopt the principles of the
Reformation before the end of the
sixteenth century, should ever have
adopted them. Catholic communities
have, since that time, become infidel
and become Catholic again; but none
has become Protestant" Mocoyyo,
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1917-12-15

In the sixteenth and to a certain
degree in the seventeenth century,
Professionalism exercised a command
ing and controlling influence over the
affairs of Europe. During the
last century all this has changed. Of
the many hundreds of great thinkers
and writer's, in every department, who
have separated from the teachings
and practices of Catholicism, it would
be difficult to name three men of real
eminence and unquestionable SINGER
ity who have attached themselves
permanently to any of the more con
sentative forms of Professionalism.
Amid all those great semi-religious
revolutions which have unhinged the
faith of thousands, and have so pro-
foundry altered the relations of Ca
tholicism and society, Protestant
churches have made no advance and
have exercised no perceptible infiu,
ence. Of all the innumerab1e forms
into which the spirit of dogmatism
crystallized after the Reformation
not one seems to have retained the
power of attracting those beyond its
border. Whatever is lost by Cathol

WHAT HAS BEEN DONE FOR THE
LEPERs.

Not only have the missionaries been
able to easesthe physical pains of the
lepers, but they have taken away some
of the horrors of death
One instance of the changed tone
of the lazaretto, during the latter
years of Father Damien's ministry,
was the increased reverence shown to
the dead. 1t marked the renewal of
hope. For while, in former times,
the body of the leper was accounted
a vile thing, now it was treated as
the habitation of an immortal spirit,
the dwelling-place of human soul
whose redemption had been bought
at great price.
