and influence the family had. The
sept of O'Carroll was early estab.

OF Oregeil. Before the English in
vasion and just after the synod of
Melilfont, in l152, their chief fJwas ex-
PEELED from that country of which he
had been the acknowledged lord from
Dfogheda to Asigh in the County of
Meath. =
Lord of Ely, Amergin Carroll, died
in 1888. In 1927 John Carroll was
Bishop of Cashel, and in 1349 Thomas
Carroll became Bishop of Tuam. The
grandfather of Charles Carroll of Car
rollton, the first settler of his fam
lily in America, arrived in Mary
land in October, 1858, provided
with commission constituting him
Encouragement of the province. He
had been educated at the University
OF Douay, in France, and entered the
Society of the Inner Temple in 1886.
Being Roman Catholic, he emigrated
to this country, really to escape from
expressions that. Catholics were SUBJ
lect to. He selected Maryland, chief

in England, was succeeded by a reyo-
luton in Maryland, and the first of the
Carroll family was destined to expe-
rlence, even in the supposed asylum
ne had selected, the evils of that re-
ligious persecution from which he had
fled. Being a Catholic, he was de-
prlyed OF office. After harmony was
restored in Maryland, he was appoint
ed agent receiver-general, keeper of
the Great Seal and register of the
land office. These appointments he
held until 1717, when laws were pass
ed depriEing Roman Catholics of their
remaining privileges.
The first Charles Carroll of Amer
lea died July 1, 1920, in the sixtieth
year of his age. He had married a
Miss Mary Darnell in 1893. His son
Charles, born in 1902, the father of

died in 1882. The mother of Charles,

MAY DRAFT PRIESTS
DIFFICULTY CAUSED BY YGENERAL
SHORTAGE OF PRIESTS.

Despite the dearth of priests through
out England, it appears that the Brit.
ish Government intends to compel
priests who have been ordained since
the adoption of the Military Service
Act to serve in the ranks as combat
ants. A Court of Appeals recently
rendered a decision to the effect that
the exemption clause is not applicable
to priests who have been ordained
since the act became law. Newly or
dained priests and seminarians are,
therefore, liable to military service.

and his son, to distinguish himself
from his father and the other relatives
who had the same name, added "of
Carrollton."
The Four CAROLS.
Here let us record, to avoid confu-
sion, the several Charles CAROLS in
Maryland between 1882. There
were four persons of the same name:
Charles Carroll, the father OF Charles
of Carrollton; Charles Carroll, a cou-
sin, barrister, born March %, 1923;
Charles Carroll Of Carrollton; Charles
Carroll, son of Charles "of Carroll
ton" Thus to avoid confusion of
names, Charles, the third, always
signed "of Carrollton." 1t has been
said that Charles Carroll of Carroll
ton, first signed 'of Carrollton" when
signing the Declaration of Independ-
ence. The story runs something like
the following. when Charles Car
roll affixed his name to the Declara-
tion of independence, and pledged his
home and his fortune to the cause of
the colonies, it was suggested that
there being so many CAROLS, he could
not be distinguished Immediately
seizing the pen, he added, OF Car
rollton,' saying the King of England
will now know where to find me-
The truth seems that Carroll did not
do so, nor say SO. He SO signed be-
cause he had been thus signing his
name for at least twelve years before
1776, after his father had given him
the manor of "Carrollton." He was
not member of the Continental Con-
gress, July 4, when the Declaration
was adopted, and no member signed it
on that day. Carroll signed it on Au-
gust 2.
When eight years of age young Car
roll was sent to France to be educated
by the English Jesuits at ST. Omer's.
After studying six years with them he
went to the Jesuit college at Rheims,
and spent two years at the College OF
Louis lie Grand. He studied law in
France and later at the Middle Tenn
pie of London. He returned to Mary
land in 1851. About the time Charles
Carroll returned to his native coun-
try the colonies were greatly excited
over the Stamp, Act and young Car
roll qt once threw himself into the
context, and by pen and voice greatly
encouraged the citizens.
Of the Stamp Act Charles Carroll
of Carrollton said, Should the Stamp
Act be enforced by tyrannial sol
diery, our property, our liberty, our
very existence is at an end, and you
may be persuaded that nothing but an
armed forced can execute the worst
of laws. Nothing can overcome the
aversion of the people to the Stamp
Act, and overcome their love Of lib
erty, but an armed force To Judge
of the number of the colonists and the
spirit they have shown, and which
hope to God will not fail them on
the day of trial, twenty thousand men
would find it difficult to enforce it,
or more properly speaking, to ram it
down our throats.''
Of his life Charles Carroll, on Sep
tember 8, 1928, wrote: Il go to bed
early and rise before the sun in win
ter and summer. During the latter I
use the cold bath between five and six
in the morning. / never drink ardent
spirits and use very little wine.
generally rise from my meals, break
fast and dinner (for I eat no supper),
with the, inclination to eat more. I
shall have completed my ninety-first
year on the 20th.''

For the sake of dinner or an auto

reputation and their virtue and not
infrequently fall victims to their
vanity and love of pleasure. For a
time the danger to which they are
exposing themselves may be lost in
the darkness and secrecy of the night;
but. in the end their names are Whis-

conscience dulled; their reputation
soiled and oftentimes their lives
wrecked. Not rarely it is a serious

lTilS A MONUMENT TO The PRES
EMIT AGE-RELATIoN TO THE
.LAITY-THE WORK. WAS IN
AuGURATED BY Plus x AND
PROMULGATED BY BENEDICT
xv-IT WILL GO INTO EFFECT
NEXT YEAR.
Writing in the Catholic Standard
and Times, Rev. DR.. j. J. Murphy gives
a review of the work on the new Code
of Canon Law:
Plus x was elected to the Papal
throne on August 4, 1903, and eight
months later inaugurated the gigantic
task of codifying the laws of the
Church. In the motu proprio "Arduum
sane," issued on March 10, 1914, he re-
called the labors of his predecessors
in the formation of the corpus of can
on law in the. thirteenth and four
teenth centuries. He praised the work
Of succeeding Pontiffs, from Gregory
XIII to Benedict XIV, in Incorporate
ing the disciplinary DEGREES of the
Council of Trent and later laws in
the new editions of the corpus or in
separate collections. He also called
attention to the splendid compilations
of the adecrees. of several of the Ro-
man congregations.
Despite all this, much still remained
nndone. The very bulk of these col
lections was in itself formidable OBJ
stacle; many of the laws contained
therein had outliyed their usefulness,
while altered times and conditions
made the observance of others very
difficult. Moved by these considera
tions, he determined to grant the oft
repeated entreaties of the Bishops that
the existing laws of the Church should
be gathered into single volume and
arranged in clear and lucid order.
At the. same time the opportunity was
to be seized of removing, all obsolete
laws and replacing them with regula-
tions better suited to present condi-
tions
For this purpose he established a
commission, consisting of a certain
number of Cardinals, to whom he con-
fided the supreme direction of the en-
tire matter He likewise provided that
q sufficient number of expert canonists
and theologians should be attached to
the commission. in the capacity Of con-
sultors, whose duty it would be to
draft the proposed canons and submit
them to the judgment of the Cardi-
nails. After the Cardinals had dis
cussed and ratified the new canons
they were to be submitted to the Pope
for his approval.
Commission Begins Task.
This document was followed on
March %, 1904, by a circular letter of
the Cardinal Secretary of State, ad-
dressed to all the Archbishops and
Bishops of the world, asking them to
furnish within the coming four months
a brief statement of the chief things
in the present law, which in their
opinion should be changed or correct
ed. The Bishops of each nation were
also allowed to designate one or more
priests to act as conSultors, either in
Rome or in their native land. This
letter, in turn, was followed by an
appeal from the secretary of the COM
mission, the present Cardinal Gas
parri, to the rectors of all the Catholic
universities throughout the world, out
lining in general way the proposed
code and asking the cooperation OF
the professors of canon law in those
institutions in the preparation of the
preliminary drafts of certain portions
of the new compilation

WoMEN's CONVENTION IN.
DAYTON ATTRACTS NOTICE

The convention for the wives of the
statesmen of the National Cash Regis
ter company, which has just closed at
the National home in Dayton, Ohio, is
attracting considerable attention be-
cause it sets a precedent for the Unit
ed States. Wives of the selling force
of the National Cash Register COM
pany from all parts Of America were
in Dayton this week as guests or the
company. The convention was plan
ned by the president John ]. Patter'
son to educate the wives in the bust
ness through which their husbands
make livelihood, feeling in doing so
it would increase the efficiency OF
the family as a whole. The entire en-
penses of the delegates were paid by
the company including transportation.
The women were entertained by the
N. G. II. Woman's club of Dayton. Two
new films recently released by the
Essanay company, 1.-The Troubles OF
Merchant and How to Stop Them
and "The Functions of the Cash Reg
ister," were shown for the first time.
They were produced for exhibitions
before chambers of commerce and
merchants organizations. Addresses
were given by Mr.. Patterson and Mr..
Steffey, salesmanager, and other eX-
perts on sales and production.
North Dakota was represented by
Mrs. e. l.. POrtman of this city aud
Mrs. II. Il. Ashelman of Fargo.

Members of the Liberty Loan can

school on Tuesday, and met with very
gratifying returns. With no effort on
their. part in the way of soliciting,
sales amounting to $1,5O0.00 were
made in less than three hours time.
This amount WIS totaled through
sales to faculty members and other
school employees. Undoubtedly stu
dent members will also invest in the
second loan as they did in the first,
but as almost a third OF the student
members are earning their own way
