"THE JEFFERSONIAN"
COURT REFUSES TO LIFT BAN

Tom Watson, the Georgia editor,
not only lost his fight to compel the
Post Office Department to open the
mails to his paper, the Jeffersonian,
but he also was bitterly denounced as
coward and a dissemination of poi
sonous literary matter by Judge
Emory Speer of the United States
District Court of Atlanta. The points
involved were similar to those raised
in the. case of. the Masses, also
barred from the mails; and Mr..
Barnes, who represents the Govern

u Speaking at the dedication Of a
Catholic school in Philadelphia, Rev.
Joseph ] Hannigan recently put the
whole subject of Catholic education
in nutshell in the following words:
More than a generation of our peo-
pie has been educated without re-
ligion. 1t could not be taught in the
public schools and was shamefully
neglected in the homes and churches.
Amid all the splendor which prosper
ity and wealth are showing forth there
is a pathetic hollowness and shallow
ness which foretell grave moral dan
gers. The. children are stretching

Indulgences for 0rientals
GRANTED BY POPE-MODERN
WORK CONDEMNED.

A Bishop of Oriental rite having
proposed to the Apostolic Peniten-
tiary the question whether the faith
full of Oriental rites can gain all the
indulgences granted by the Supreme
Pontiff by universal decree, the Peni,
Tertiary has replied I'm the Affirma-
tive and his Holiness has approved
the answer and ordered that it shall
be published. This is the first ocea
sion on which the Penitentiary
speaks ON indulgences now handed
over to it from the Holy Office. The
latter, now controlling the Index
has just spoken condemning publ
cation in Italian called History oi
Christianity" being in fact a reprint
of a series of lectures given by Prof
Bonaiutti at the Roman University.

Welfare of Soldiers.

The Committee wishes to impress
upon the Catholic World that all the
activities in the spiritual and moral
welfare of our Catholic boys, while
in the environments and encampments,
while in this country and in the camps
at the front, when the boys are in
France will be looked after by this
Committee.
To this end nearly five hundred
thousand dollars is being expended by
the order, under the supervision OF
this Committee for the erection OF
recreation halls at Sixteen Canton
ments and the same amount at Six
teen Encampments to which are
added all necessary furnishings and
conveniences.
In each Hall secretary and an
assistant will have charge, literature
of spiritual and entertaining char
acter will be distributed, prayer books,
Bibles and religious articles provided,
and above ALL an opportunity for all
the boys to attend Mass regularly
and to perform their other religious
obligations.
The above facts are important mas.

of the daily papers announcing that
the Y. M. C. A had been designated

played by the order which he is
anxious to have the members of the

Office of the Provost Marshal General,

August "a, 1917.
Mr.. P. H.. Callahan,
Chairman, Committee on War Activi-
ties,
Knights Of Columbus,
Washington, d. c.
My dear Mr.. Callahan:
just received your letter of August
20 in which you are good enough to
inform me "it is not our intention to
claim exemptions for anybody con-
nected with our work, although we
will have at least a couple of hun
dred of our best young men, who come
within the military age, doing very
important educational and recrea-
tional work"
This statement is so fine, and is so
reassuring, and is SO full of the spirit
of what I am pleased to call genuine
Americanism, that l cannot refrain
from sending you personal word to
congratulate you for the attitude
which you and the organization which
you represent have assumed.
should be very glad if you would
communicate at least the contents OF
this letter to your colleagues.
Very truly yours,

a profession of faith. Most likely,
however, the confessor will be able
to reconcile him to the Church with
out any public formality. Each case
of this kind must be dealt with in
dividually.
Why is it said that we inherit
original sin from Adam alone and not
from Eve also?
Because Adam and not Eve was the
representative of mankind. Adam was
created by God as the beginning of
the human race and Eve was formed
out of Adam, being taken from his
side, as Scripture says, whilst locked
in sleep. 1t depended upon the free
will of Adam TO preserve or lose orig
inal justice in which he had been
created. If Eve alone, therefore, had
committed sin, the sin would not have
been transmitted In his epistle to
the Romans, 9TH chapter, 18th verse,

The corporation will exempt from
its 30-day storage limitation lots of
grain examined by the committee and
found to be good for use as seed.
Such lots may be kept for bona fide
seed purposes until the end of the
next seeding season. The corpora
ton has issued blanket licenses for
storage of seed grain, which apply
automatically to specific lots when
the committee approves them. Seed
so held may be sold at not to ex-

it is stored.
The Department is urging operat-

cooperate fully in the endeayor to
assure through this arrangement an
adequate supply of high grade seed
for use next spring.

Rumor to Discourage Home Canning
and Drying OF Food Stuffs

A rumor has been widely circulat-
ed that our Federal Governm ent in
tends to take from each family all
canned goods put up in excess of 100
quarts. Another rumor is that the
Government has been urging the can
ming. drying, and preserving of fruits
and vegetables so they will be in a
convenient form for the Government
to transport when it takes them away
from the housewife
These rumors are utterly false and
without any foundation, whatever
The authorities state emphatically
that no such course has been con-
templated by the Government. On
the contrary every effort has been
and is now being made to urge the
housewife, also the boys and girls
to can and otherwise preserve all sur
plus perishable fruits and vegetables,
in order that the homes will be we'll
supplied and thus not be compelled
to draw from commercial sources for
such products, which in a measure
will help to keep down the high cost
| of living.
This false and widely circulated
report should be corrected by a wide
publicity of facts as stated above.

ALFALFA AND COVER HAY RE-

Alfalfa and clover hay have a high
err feeding value than other hay.
When horses and cattle are fed al
falfa or clover hay they need less

fed to produce we'll. In experiments
at the Vermont and the Pennsylvania
Experiment Stations, it was found
that when alfalfa hay was fed instead

that alfalfa hay is nearly as good as

like" is as true with plants as with
animals. Inferior seed produces in
ferior plants; superior seed, superior

imported seed this year. Because of
these facts and because home grown
seed, when properly selected from
good varieties is better adapted to
local conditions of soil and climate
makes seed selection and saving d
very important piece of work
Each farmer should save his own
seed in order to be supplied when
planting time arrives, and not plan
on buying seed which may not be OBJ

very important that each farmer who
has good seed of any crop give this
matter close consideration and thus
assist in a bigger and better yield

The consideration OF the Pope's
peace proposals and the unanimous

means that the world must face
fourth winter of war. To our nation
this means that every energy must
be bent toward the equipment of an
army, navy and air fleet that shall
be adequate to make us the deciding
factor in the world conflict. Thus
again it will be our privilege as a
nation to perpetuate and safeguard
that freedom wrested from the
tyrants of the past by our fore
fathers. OF them it was said: They
went where duty seemed to call. They
scarcely asked the reason why. They
only knew they could but die, and
death was not the worst of all" So
today our strong young men are GO
ing where duty seems to call. They
must have shelter and sustenance.
arms and ammunition. Anything
short of,that means that we are send
ing them forth to a needless sacri-
flee.
The government must spend vast
sums. There never was and never
can be an economical war, but we
need not feel that the money we loan
our government is destroyed, or lost
or sent out of the country. 1t is
practically all here. Uncle Sam bor-
rows from his people and pays them
four per cent interest for the invest
ment. Then he spends that money
for the products of American farm.

our allies, on the condition that they
spend it in America; in either case, |
the money goes book into the chan
